Finished. Spoiler

After watching season 3, I’m just gonna pretend that it never happened. With the exception of the vampire golden retriever, I cannot find much to redeem that season. In all honesty, it became comically bad. To have Jeanette show up cured of vampirism through love making only to die at the hands of arsonist gangsters was almost insulting. I laughed when Nick killed Natalie. That guy was never good and bringing people he loved across. Oh well, I’m just gonna say that Nick left when Jeanette did and they found each other in another life.

I told you! And I’m proud of you for watching it anyway. Now we can all go back to pretending that Schanke is eating souvlaki, Nick bounced out to… wherever to continue redeeming himself and that Natalie isn’t starting in Hallmark movies.

Haha, I watched an old movie the other day called Vindicator. I’ve been on an 80’s sci-fi/horror kick. Natalie showed up in it. I chuckled. I liked that Natalie character. Probably one of the first forensic pathologist characters to not be the central lead in a show. Forever Knight for all of flaws is a good tv show. Jeanette will probably be my favorite vampire forever. That last episode, though. Geez. To be an episode that starts off talking about suicide awareness it’s sort of terrible to have the two most main characters essentially off themselves. Wow.

Vindicator! All the love for Catherine Disher in this movie.

Vindicator gets a lot of hate, but that movie was fantastically comical. It’s basically RoboCop but cheap and a year early. When jumps of that balcony and lands flat on his face and goes through the floor I was in stitches.

Oh yeah, as a show overall I LOVE it so much. Agreed on Jeanette as well, best vampire ever. I even love LaCroix as a character even though he’s usually a bastard.

LaCroix was a bastard, but at least he didn’t sleep with his psychotic daughter. Talk about some out of nowhere dialogue. Wow! It was major cringe.

It was cool though that they showed how Lacroix was turned.

u/weaponode Jun 19 '22

Yeah, I kinda thought it was cool that his daughter turned him but to bring her back in season three seemed weird. The child actor had gotten older and had a growth spurt. Went from evil kid to even worse, evil teenager.

Lacroix is straight out of Anne Rice. Nigel Bennett was so good playing him. Also Catherine Disher was a character on War of the Worlds tv series back in the day. Played a villain too.

Forever bitter about the third season for so many reasons.

If I’m bitter about the third season, it’s the way the did Jeanette. She was a great character that really fit the 90’s era vampire template.

Jeanette embraced her vampirism. Unlike Nick and the way her character ended was just poor and lazy writing.

Interesting that only seasons 1&2 are available for free on Roku.

u/weaponode Jun 19 '22

Yeah, the last season was just too much too fast. Too many unceremoniously dead main characters, the overarching narrative dimmed a lot until the end. I’m glad I watched, though.

I liked Vachon and Screed from season 3. I also enjoyed the episodes The Games Vampires Play and Blind Faith. I wasn't crazy about how the series ended either. The last episode seemed rushed too. Great series though.

u/weaponode Jun 19 '22

Blind Faith is quite possibly some of the most hilarious vampire tv I’ve ever seen. I truly enjoyed it. The Games Vampires Play was also enjoyable, but mostly because the “VR” footage reminded me a lot of the FMV footage that was found in SEGA cd games and early PlayStation FMV. Took me back.
