Oh, a bunch of secrets... It's a pity that it was closed.

the only thing that bothers, apart from the obvious cliches (but this is a comic book adaptation, he says), is the heroine's constantly open mouth. Something might get knocked up, it's a swamp! (just kidding)

and I feel sorry for the green guy all the time:(

Oh, I watched all 5 episodes in one gulp! It's a very cool and intriguing series, I'm not particularly familiar with the original source, but the atmosphere and storylines are very impressive. As far as I know, the Swamp Thing has mega abilities in the comics, but I don't know if Alec could have taken on his original human form. Guys who are familiar with the original source, please clarify this point)
Finally, Abby's past was clarified to us, I thought that her friend really died because of her fault, and then some unknown shit dragged her under the water. But what or who is it? The intrigue of the POC. The storyline with the Blue Devil is also gaining momentum, I hope Daniel is alive, otherwise it's kind of extremely stupid to merge the character without giving any answers, but it turned out to be such an interesting seed. The Pied Piper from the Strain, aka Jason, begins to stir up something strongly with his obsession. The sheriff and the Sunderland family are having trouble with the cuckoo. In general, the series is getting better and better with each episode, oh, I hope they will more or less meet the 5 episodes by giving answers. It's a pity that the series was closed, which certainly could have had a huge potential for 5 seasons, and the greed and incompetence of the warners, as always, is in their repertoire..

@Devilshot: it is unlikely that they will reveal all the secrets in 5 episodes, since the season had already been filmed when it was suddenly decided to close.

@Devilshot: No, the Creature can't turn into Alec (in the comic, the emphasis is on the fact that less and less of the Holond remains in him over time). But it can disintegrate and sprout anywhere in the world. Back in the comic, he was taught everything by John Constantine, who is unlikely to appear here. In general, the whole intrigue is around Woodrow, who will arrange fun in this town). And, yes, in the comic, he was also obsessed, but not with the swamp, but with protecting the forests.

@Kandid: and what other characters from the series are there in the comic, like Madame Xanadu?

@Devilshot: In the comics, it was like this: Alec became a Swamp Creature after the disaster, and for a long time it was believed that this was the case. But then everything turned upside down, because it turned out that Alec had died in the explosion, but his memory had somehow passed to the Creature, and therefore she considered herself dead Alec. It seems to me that sooner or later such a revelation could happen in the series, but alas.

@KOStEt_58: That would explain what dragged Shauna to the bottom-the thing that was evil back then.

Is it normal for a blind person to be given a phone to call a policeman?

Abby dialed the number before giving her the phone

The sheriff gives of course! Without understanding it, he immediately shoots! And was it really Matt? I can't believe it...
the blue-eyed Devil is still here...

It's a pity that Reed couldn't resist and also "corrected" her flaws. She seems to be forever pouting in surprise now. It looks strange. It 's like my head is empty 😁
I liked the series more than the previous ones. But, alas, the end is coming soon.

Come on! She was so cute when she was a Cub, but you can hardly recognize her here.

I look at her every time and it even gets a little funny)) A very peculiar facial expression now . 😄

@vin: And when she was a Cub, her face looked like she was watching little puppies being slaughtered with a shovel.

Drama, of course, is written on the knee of the serial, logic is also terminally ill. The creature got tired of whining. He was a scientist, and now in one moment he has lost all his ability to analyze and is not trying to learn anything about his new identity, but just whines to everyone and wants to be pitied. Abby can be seen communicating with possessed children and ghosts every day - not a single muscle on her face twitched. Not to mention the fact that for some reason she considers herself the murderer of her friend, when she knows perfectly well that she is not to blame.
In this episode, only Lynch's greetings pleased me in the form of a "Sandman".

@Мятный_марципан: As for guilt, it seems to me that when she was a child, Shona's mother blamed her for death, and she psychologically accepted that she was to blame. It happens.

@Touches: That's probably true. It just always seems that in adulthood all childhood traumas are reinterpreted, and even if nothing can be done with emotions, then at least with awareness it is possible. That is, she, especially working in such a rational field, might feel guilty, but know that this is not the case and at least not assert it.

@Мятный_марципан: Well, we don't know exactly what's going on in the creature's head or how much he's retained his mental abilities.

@ishayahu: Ahahah, well, by the way, yes) That would be a logical explanation.) But most likely, he did not lose his knowledge and ability to analyze, even improved them to some extent, he just couldn't cope emotionally. He was a little childish before he turned)

Dr. Woodrew (or whatever his name is) looks like a psycho or homicidal maniac. And Sunderland, by the way, too.

Oh, my! I didn't imagine that a Ghostly Stranger came to the Creature disguised as a fisherman, did I? *_*

That's it? I got an unintelligible ghost.
Well, my aunt wants to swim with her daughter. Why bother her? Well, she wanted to take Susie with her.

Some kind of supernatural on minimums with elements of the X-files and once upon a time in a fairy tale.
The untreated girl is sent home... COOL!

Isn't this Abby special, by any chance?

"I don't believe I'm saying this, but we're facing something unknown to science." KOMON! YOUR FRIEND HAS TURNED INTO A TWO-LEGGED ALGAE! Oh, I'm sorry, I have the same one in my yard. And a tree grew out of a peasant the other day. Yes, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have.

Is Alec an idiot? In the last episode, he said that plants store memories. Next episode: SOME PLANTS KEEP MEMORIES! wow!

"Everything looks fine" have they found a cure yet? Wow. Is it fucking hard to listen to the lungs through a T-shirt?

What kind of parody of a Spell is this?

Is there so much positivity from there? The series started well, and then some illogical bullshit started with plot holes so big that a black hole is nothing!

"What did you do to her?" Doesn't the fact that you saw your Shawna outside the window bother you?

Less and less of a Swampy Something, a series about a strong independent woman who spits on the rules. It was amazing... to see a black lesbian femo slapping white cocks on the back of her head) The summons… There's a subpoena everywhere…
