      "The Strain"--Love Makes Us Strong

      Hunger, a poet once said, is the most important thing we know. is the first lesson we learn. But hunger can be easily quieted down, easily satiated. There is another force, a different type of hunger, an unquenchable thirst that cannot be quenched. Its very existence is what defines us and what makes us human. That force is love. Love is going to guide them all back to their homes ,to their loved ones.


      Love , you see, is the one force that cannot be explained, cannot be broken...

      Cut off the white lotus heroine and the straight male cancer hero, we can still be friends

      Watching episode ten now. But what I want to say most so far are the following points:

      1. Those who say that this show has absolutely no logic and are stupid to the end are basically trying to improve their quality by stepping on this drama with a slightly inflated rating. The typical boss of this show is correct, but the protagonist is not likable.

      2. Because I watched the first episode and watched the seventh episode in one breath, and then watched the tenth episode in one...

      Being good means nothing

      In S1e3, when the court released Abraham (the Jewish old man), the female doctor chased him to ask about the situation, the old man said
      you think that being good is enough?
      being good means nothing, unless you are willing to do waht needs to be done, when it needs to be done
      Do you think being a good person is enough?
      To be good is to do nothing if you can't do something when you need to.

      And in S1e7, the old Nazi officer asked young Abraham to choose whether to...

      The strain

      This planet, our host, Once so wild and unknown, We've mapped it, paved it, arranged it on a grid, never imagining, that something else was watching us, a creature even more ruthless and predacious than we are, eager to exploit the very infrastructure we so obligingly arranged, Is the war already lost? Are we destined to be cattle for monsters? Or, now that the enemy has finally shown his face, do we have a fighting chance? Nothing is written that cannot be chanhed. It is a small world, after...

      What the hell is "Blood"

      This is FX's new American drama. After watching 8 episodes in one go last night,
            not to mention the 3-rate special effects, it's so fake;
            I don't complain about the main attack weapon of the vampires-----I must have seen FACE OFF sixth It is not difficult for Ji's children's shoes to find that these monsters are exactly the same as the long-tongue monsters created by the Puerto Rican guy, and everyone should know that the guy's monster is not favored by the judges, but...

      I finished watching it in two days. Yes, there are dramas worth chasing. The navigation episode is good and it attracts me. Guillermo’s film is not bad. I don’t think I have time to read the original comics. The story In fact, it's quite old-fashioned. The characters have nothing to stand out about, but they are actually annoying. The bald person has a really weak sense of existence. I'm just waiting for the second season. I hope it will be different from the comics and will not disappoint...

    Behind the scenes gags

    1. Most of the scenes in the first episode were filmed in Toronto, Canada. The 12 swords used in the play were provided by the sword company Zombie Tools.
    2. The music is produced by the musician Ramin Jawadi, who used to score the American TV series " Prison Break " and the film " Pacific Rim ".
    3. The original iconic poster was an objectionable painting. In the picture, a slender parasite emerges from the human eye, and the parasite is...

    Background creation

    As early as 2006, Del Toro proposed to set up a TV series called "The Strain", but when the president of Fox Broadcasting Company's network department insisted that it should be filmed as a comedy, the matter immediately fell through. Someone suggested that it is better to use the inspiration further and write a novel first. When de Toro invited Chuck Hogan to write a script together, de Toro wrote many short stories in English and...
