The Strain S1E1 "Night Zero"

I'm rewatching this, because a) Fet and b) to get rid of the taste of the audiobook. This is one of the rare times where I didn't read the book first, and I probably would never have seen the show if I had. The book is short and... reads like an abridged book, if that makes sense. In the movie, Jim is in several episodes and gets infected in "Creatures of the Night" and Fet has to put him down. In the book, he's infected almost immediately. In the book, they meet Fet almost right away, once again, in the show, they meet him in "Creatures of the Night." Eichorst is not int he first book at all.

Alternatively, as I was rewatching this first ep, I realized Eph is much less insufferable in the book.

It's weird that the show is so much better, considering Guillermo Del Toro and Chuck Hogan wrote the books and were the showrunners as well.

I started to skip the first ep, because, no Fet, and it's over an hour long. But, Abraham is in it.

books, tv shows, the strain
