The Strain Is a Bad TV Show That Just Got Immeasurably Worse


Rob Bricken




Oh, The Strain. You did not just go there.

But you did! You took one of your two-dimensional female characters and subjected her to the infinitely tired, awful sexual assault storyline in a bid to give your show badly needed drama and some kind of personal stakes for its ancillary cast. I’d say shame on them, but The Strain has never had the awareness required to feel shame.

The main storyline is Dutch, who’s been captured by Eichorst, who is prepping her for a special meal for himself. As it turns out, Dutch reminds him of a girl he had a crush on back in ‘30s Germany, so it’s flashback time! Is Eichorst a sadsack loser with a crush on the hot blonde in the office? Yes! Is he last in the sales race that every sales company in the 1930s were apparently required to have? Check! Is the blonde Das Magic Pixie Dream Girl to his disaffected adulthood? YOU KNOW IT. Does the blonde turn him down and he join the Nazi party to bully those who have belittled him? Of course he does.

Even before the cliché-filled origin story, Eichorst gives off a real MRA/mansplaining vibe, especially when he starts uttering about Dutch being one of those girls who dresses to get attention. Coupled with the fact that Dutch is chained up in Eichorst’s “dining” room, forced to obey his whims (such as eating pineapple to “season” her) under threat of physical violence, the metaphor for sexual assault is obvious, if not quite overt.

And then it gets overt.

Yes, a vampire—with a mouth-tentacle—demands Dutch take off her pants. He sits down on the floor, then orders Dutch to bend over—because he’s going to perform oral sex/tentacle-rape this female character.

Yes, with no better story to tell—as has been evidenced all season—The Strain has decided to sexually assault one of its female characters to add a bit of “drama” to the proceedings. The fact that all of this flies in the face of the shoddy information the show has given us about the vampires—that they have no emotions, no feeling, are beyond humanity— is insult to injury. (As is the fact that Eichorst absolutely does not need to have his evilness established, being a Nazi vampire.)

The tragedy—well, one of the tragedies—is that when most shows and movies and so forth pull this, it’s recognized as the laziest of storytelling;. But The Strain’s storytelling is so weak, so slow, so pitiful, that this horrible, clichéd story is honestly the most dramatic the show has been all season. However, this does not excuse The Strain at all. Unless The Strain somehow manages to treat this with the magnitude, the respect, and the horror it deserves, this will merely be another show exploiting another poorly written female character for a cheap thrill. I believe the chances of The Strain pulling this off are slim at best, and more likely nonexistent.

Anyways, Dutch escapes at the last minute by spraying Eichorst in the face with mace—which is another thing the show’s mythology has never once intimated, given that vamps ignore all other wounds except head wounds—runs around the corner, and the show turns into a standard del Toro horror flick, with Dutch running around myriad halls, unable to escape, while Eichorst saunters after her like a Nazi Pepe le Pew. It takes forever for Eichorst to finally catch her and start dragging her back, at which point of course Eph, Nora and Fet, having heard her screams, burst through a brick wall, throws a silver grenade at Eichorst, rescues Dutch at the last second. Of course, Eichorst gets away again, meaning the show’s larger status quo remains unchanged.

At least Ruta Gedmintas plays Dutch as truly traumatized by what’s happened, and the other characters seem to acknowledge to true horror of what she’s been through. Again, I have my doubts that The Strain will be able to continue treating this with the gravity it deserves, and I worry things will be nauseatingly back to normal next episode.

I would love to be wrong. But then I would also love The Strain’s second season to be over.

Other storylines:

Setrakian was of course knocked on the head last episode by the grown-up Rudyard Fonescu, who eventually brings the Lumen to black marketer Alonso Creem, in another almost shockingly uninteresting delaying tactic to keep the maguffin out of Setrakian’s hands.

Gus and Angel get the Indian family out of New York City with help from Quinlan’s lackey. Then Gus and Angel get in a car with Quinlan’s lackey. This is the 11th episode; there are only two left. Only next week do either of these characters finally have the opportunity of doing something interesting in this goddamned show.

Assorted Musings:

• After the first episode of the season, Team Vampire Hunter needed to find the Lumen, Eldritch Palmer and the Master’s plan had not yet come to fruition. Gus was working with a group of vampire-hunting vampires. That’s about it.

• What the hell has changed? Eph and Nora have developed a vampire-killing virus but done nothing with it. Angel has been introduced and done nothing. Eldritch has fallen in love with Coco, which hasn’t affected his plan with the Master at all. There’s now a love triangle between Fet, Dutch and Nicki, and it’s boring as hell. The Master has a new body, and achieved nothing with it. Gus is working with a new vampire-hunting vampire, and they have achieved nothing.

• That’s how little has happened in 11 episodes, and in terms of the broader battle between humans and vampires, nothing has changed at all. AT ALL.

• Fuck this show.

the summary at the end is spot on. but keeping it real this latest episode was one of the more interesting of the season for me. at least that dumb ass kid didn't get any screen time. if any character/episode needs a rant it should be focused on him.

Yeah, I'm still watching, and will come back next season... but it's not must see tv for me in that if I miss an ep, I can wait until next week. If I miss a Walking Dead episode, I'm downloading or watching the late late replay.

The show started off (first couple episodes of season 1) extremely hot, but it seems like they're stuck trying to figure out where to go with it on screen.

I think the reviewer missed one of the central ideas of these creatures...being that they are compelled to seek out the ones they love most. With Eichorst...(however u spell that shit) the fact that Dutch reminds him of the girl he was in love with....it makes perfect sense that he would feel an urge to get at her. He is one of the few sentient vamp creatures and has had decades to master his more base instincts....but even he is compelled by that urge. I felt like that was the point of that whole story line. I could be wrong.
 
Man listen...this is the worst TV show that I must watch weekly.

It's bad, but not nearly as campy or corny as True Blood ended up.

I'm in until it's over...

Right or wrong, that's still an interesting take. I hadn't considered that the sentient vamps could still be swayed by their original compulsion to kill loved ones. I assumed that was only for the baser, unthinking vampires.

But it wasnt though.

He didnt want to turn her, He wanted to punish her because he looked like a girl he hated/loved. His vermillion.

This was the best episode in a while, so with the read, I disagree with a lot of it, but I do concur on the "nothing happened all season" sentiment.

I feel like BOTH things can be true.

I was one of the ones who championed The Strain initially because it SEEMED more video game action oriented and started off explaining exactly how the infestation happened and still had a overall mystery to it...I liked the effects and pacing, and the 'real-ness" of it initially..

and THEN

it just went off the rails.

But this season its highs and lows were so extreme it was really uneven and the new son did not help at all.

But just to take on the last episode.

I did like it I am a sucker for flashbacks and I liked seeing one of my favorite characters analyzed but it WAS unnecessary, we already establish how he was an evil Nazi a few times already. But it DID help explain why he was obsessed with her...(thanks silentking)

but the Indian family was a complete waste of time and could have been wrapped in in 1 or 2 episodes and would have been even MORE effecting.

Oh and lets address the rape I completely understand why many would be offended by it on a few levels but I THINK the flashback was used to explain it...he was searching for a warped perverted love from when he was a human (although he was essentially a monster then too)

there are WAY to many hanging plot lines...and just lazy waste of time stuff.

But despite that it was a great episode filled with horror and REAL tension.

You take out the Indian story-line keep it to 45 minutes more searching and mental torture and it would be one of the best episodes so far.

Oh, The Strain. You did not just go there.

You took one of your two-dimensional female characters and subjected her to the infinitely tired, awful sexual assault storyline in a bid to give your show badly needed drama and some kind of personal stakes for its ancillary cast. I’d say shame on them, but The Strain has never had the awareness required to feel shame.

The main storyline is Dutch, who’s been captured by Eichorst, who is prepping her for a special meal for himself. As it turns out, Dutch reminds him of a girl he had a crush on back in ‘30s Germany, so it’s flashback time! Is Eichorst a sadsack loser with a crush on the hot blonde in the office? Yes! Is he last in the sales race that every sales company in the 1930s were apparently required to have? Check! Is the blonde Das Magic Pixie Dream Girl to his disaffected adulthood? YOU KNOW IT. Does the blonde turn him down and he join the Nazi party to bully those who have belittled him? Of course he does.

Even before the cliché-filled origin story, Eichorst gives off a real MRA/mansplaining vibe, especially when he starts uttering about Dutch being one of those girls who dresses to get attention. Coupled with the fact that Dutch is chained up in Eichorst’s “dining” room, forced to obey his whims (such as eating pineapple to “season” her) under threat of physical violence, the metaphor for sexual assault is obvious, if not quite overt.

And then it gets overt.

Yes, a vampire—with a mouth-tentacle—demands Dutch take off her pants. He sits down on the floor, then orders Dutch to bend over—because he’s going to perform oral sex/tentacle-rape this female character.

Unless The Strain somehow manages to treat this with the magnitude, the respect, and the horror it deserves, this will merely be another show exploiting another poorly written female character for a cheap thrill. I believe the chances of The Strain pulling this off are slim at best, and more likely nonexistent.

Anyways, Dutch escapes at the last minute by spraying Eichorst in the face with mace—which is another thing the show’s mythology has never once intimated, given that vamps ignore all other wounds except head wounds—runs around the corner, and the show turns into a standard del Toro horror flick, with Dutch running around myriad halls, unable to escape, while Eichorst saunters after her like a Nazi Pepe le Pew. It takes forever for Eichorst to finally catch her and start dragging her back, at which point of course Eph, Nora and Fet, having heard her screams, burst through a brick wall, throws a silver grenade at Eichorst, rescues Dutch at the last second. Of course, Eichorst gets away again, meaning the show’s larger status quo remains unchanged.

At least Ruta Gedmintas plays Dutch as truly traumatized by what’s happened, and the other characters seem to acknowledge to true horror of what she’s been through. Again, I have my doubts that The Strain will be able to continue treating this with the gravity it deserves, and I worry things will be nauseatingly back to normal next episode.

I would love to be wrong. But then I would also love The Strain’s second season to be over.

You just gon let a bunch of mufuckas out and give em weapons and tell em we gotta fight for so and so. I thought the hunter was gonna pop out the shadows to keep them in check or somethin but Angel was onto that dude.

Like I said last week the dumb ass blonde was goin back to the lez bitch.

Ungrateful CUNT.

The lez chic and her moms is like fuck this shit we out.lol. Lez bitch got no stake in that fight. Blondie tryin to hold on to past life but bitch U helped bring about this shit and joined up wit Dutch and em to fight. THat's your destiny now. Lez bitch showed u her nature when she left yall at the gas station.
