    Because she desperately tries to put so much backstory on the table so she can run forever. In order to create a long run of the series you first have to write an interesting story that people can touch from the beginning.Unfortunately, the story is quite boring and even more boring explained when Aldi would have to imagine all the background stories and myths of Game of Thrones just without the fun and without are or payoff.I'm sorry for the actors because everyone is trying very hard here and even thought about fixing some bugs that unfortunately made the movies.I would welcome a self-contained narrative if every single season of a Blade TV series had its own standalone story, you could really make a deal out of it, hoping that someday they'll rebuild Blade decently and make a fantastic show of it. Do something Netflix!The fights are super uninteresting, doing the series is way too serious that it gets on the nerves very quickly, the fights are not brutal enough the cameraman probably never knew who to focus on, most of the time is the world clipping way too close, the music is so forgettable and the cut is just horrible.And that goes for every single episode apart from the pilot. (But not even that was the yellow of the egg) _German idiom_ Unfortunately, they did not have that big production budget so many sets just look shabby and not in the good way. I did not get that dirty, dark, weird atmosphere you expect from vampire stories, but everything is just run-down and cheap and that's actually the series's perfect together.

    Blade takes over from the movies following everybody's favourite daywalker taking on the undead and his quest for ultimate vengeance. I guess I could not complain about the weapons , action and babes which is probably enough reason for me to check it out and to be honest with you , it is not as bad as some people make it out to be. Kirk Jones is no Wesley Snipes but in certain places he seems to hold it well at times, the main bad guy Marcus Van kind of reminds me of Deacon Frost which in a way is a good thing as it lets us in further into the world of vampire politics and we get to see it works. The show had masses of potential as it warmed up , I was just shocked to see it cancelled.BLADE: THE SERIES - 6.8 OUT OF 10

    Wesley Snipes was cool as Blade. He didn't look out of place with all his gear. Sticky Fingaz is over cool, doesn't have much to say and looks/acts like a moron. Somehow, the Krista plot does not make sense. Marcus kills her brother, he knows Krista is his sister and a soldier, what else but revenge would she want from him, what else but trying to betray him ??? I haven't seen all of the series yet, so there is hope that there will be an answer to that. I like the Marcus character - he is well played by Neil Jackson. The "bad guys" are better portrayed and more "likeable" than the so-called good ones. Some of the special effects are quite good.Although the whole series is a bit ridiculous, it still is entertaining and exciting enough to watch it.

    When I first saw that there was going to be a Blade series i thought, "oh great something else for my brother to watch." but i sat down and watched the first episode and was hooked. I couldn't believe how good it was. that same night i watched all 3 blade movies. ha ha when i watched the finale i couldn't wait to see the second season. so i can't wait to see the second season. i wonder how marquis is doing? i am now an official fan of vampires, and vampire slayers. And i thought buffy the vampire slayer was good. the vampire world must be an interesting place to be. ha ha! If there is such a place i think it would be a great enjoyment to see how they live,well actually they are dead former shadows of themselves i believe that is what Dracula said in Blade trinity. Their opinion of the world today may not be so good especially with Blade around.
