Van Helsing

Was not sure how to title this thread , went with Van Helsing (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt5212382/?ref_=ttep_ep1)

anyone seen the Pilot it aired last night in the US . Have a feeling its in the same vain as "Wynonna Earp "(http://www.imdb.com/title/tt4878326/?ref_=nv_sr_1http://www.imdb.com/title/tt4878326/?ref_=nv_sr_1)
on 5* at the moment which is anAwful awful show .I am just looking to fill my Mid summer TV chewing gum.

I have a Three episode rule on all TV shows I choose to take a look at .
but would rather someone else decided for me in this case. My last few choices have be poor.

Watched the first episode and it's a poor zombie show with nothing going for it unlike Wynonna Earp; I barely scraped through the first episode and that's it for me.

Skerries · 02-08-2016 7:49pm

I'll give it one more before deciding, still in 2 minds about Wynonna Earp so have got a few more episodes

Joeface · 02-08-2016 8:15pm

Cheers for taking the hit.

WE , casting was right, but terrible writing and directing. I gave it 5eps and that's breaking my own rule

Didn't need the demon hunting, supernatural owns that. Could have done US Marshal thing and filled the void left by justified

JP Liz V1 · 02-08-2016 11:09pm

Swede is best part of the show

I'll give it a miss then. I'm struggling with Wynona Earp so given that, I'd say this is a no no. Wynona Earp isn't a badly executed show but I find the premise so completely stupid that I can't really buy into the whole thing.

It kicked off last night on Syfy with a double episode nothing great about it really.

Just watched up to Ep 4.

Not a bad show, just not great and even I'm getting tired of the post apocalyptic story lines, and I do enjoy them. The TV execs are really mining this genre too much (never thought I'd be saying that).

Agent Coulson · 17-12-2016 11:22am

The full season was added to Netflix today.

Avatar MIA · 17-12-2016 3:30pm

I think this improved as it went along. The story line has opened up in the last 3 eps. Strangely enough this was

also the eps the lead male character went missing. I liked him, but it was coming across as his show up until that point and had to change.

Re the main character. Shot in some angles she's quite pretty, but her jaw makes her very manly looking at times. Yeah, insightful stuff I know :pac:

Agent Coulson · 22-07-2017 10:34pm

It grew on me as it went along I have to say and in the end I enjoyed it.

Not majorly inspired by the trailer. Will probably see what the feedback is before committing. So, on your heads be it!

Agent Coulson · 26-08-2017 8:20pm

Season 2 starts October 5th.

Season 3 Comic Con trailer.

This definitely picked up in season 2. Was ready to call it quits after 2 episodes of season 1 but was told to stick it. Looking forward to season 3.

Season 3 started last night.

An enjoyable open episode.

Sudden Valley · 08-10-2018 1:57pm

Got into this series late but writers definitely seem to enjoy writing mad storylines. Not the biggest fan of scarlet so am happy that van helsing actress is back fulltime after giving birth.

EoinMcLovin · 18-12-2018 11:38pm

Renewed for a fourth season

Wibbs · 19-12-2018 11:20am

I kinda got into this by mistake

but I do enjoy it for what it is. The lead actress was a bit clunky at first, but got much better. They keep it fresh by changing the dynamics of the threat and the Scooby gang with every season. Something that shows like The Walking Dead could learn from.

Yeah, but I've a feeling this is the last season. Sure the main character has hardly been on screen for most of the season.

I thought that it was definitely anounced as the last season, but I could have missed something, as I generally do

It hasn't been announced yet if it has been renewed or cancelled, will probably know next week. But knowing SyFy it's hard to tell as they cancelled alot of shows (Deadly Class, Krypton) this year.

I was wrong.

Van Helsing renewed for fifth and final season

Nicely set up now for a final balls to the wall mental final season.

Sonics2k · 11-02-2020 7:40pm

Finally got around to watching Season 4 and most of the way through.

It's true that Vanessa is barely in the season, but imo that's a good thing. Of all the characters I found her one the weakest. Quite frankly the season is not great, but it's alright.

However, there is a stand out episode "No 'I' in team.". That is a bloody fantastic episode and in itself is worthy of being a full blown movie, because it's better than most vampire/horror movies out there.

EoinMcLovin · 12-03-2021 6:24pm

Back April 16th
