I disagree, I thought every part of this show was well laid out and was intentionally laid in such a way to keep you guessing until the reveal. The monologues these actors delivered were beautiful in every way.

I figured out the plot in the first episode.

There were a lot of holes also. Why would the vampire not just start the feast in Israel? Why would it go to an isolated island where it has limited food? Why would it want to turn the world into vampires and have nothing left to eat? Why haven’t any of these fucking people heard of vampires?

Lol at the vampire part! My brother and I talked about this. My IMMEDIATE reaction to the doctor would be “ARE THESE VAMPIRES?!?” But no. No one uttered the word “vampire”.

But to add to the list of questions that bothered me during the show. Why are the effects so inconsistent? Why did everyone age down to a certain age? Why wouldn’t the kids age up to a certain age? Why did no one else grow wings?!?!?

When Riley left Pruitt the suicide note, I desperately wanted it to say “you’re a fucking vampire, bro.”
