I'll echo Bosco's sentiments. I finally caught it yesterday, after "Shaolin Soccer". Managed to wander out on it several times, which bodes ill for its holding power (I may be a great many things, but unfocused is low on the list). No first episode of anything is ever good, so I'll allow that in

I finally got to see the episode on the DVR. I wasn't impressed but I wasn't disappointed either. I thought the Blade films we're pretty flat and the series is just more flat if that's actually possible. The acting was too a person, terrible but not worse than a lot of other crap on TV. The script

Blade is portrayed by "Sticky Fingaz" from Onyx. They've been trying to find a vehicle for Sticky to act for a long time now. I really want this show to work out for him because when I read the books I thought he'd be perfect for the role, but this wasn't a promising first episode. O

I am so glad that I wasn't the only one to notice that! What kind of hogwash was that?? I also think that the actor,,,I don't even know his name...was very weak in his portrayal...Or is it that they just didn't give him a chance to show his ability? Hell, even his sidekick had a stronger presenc

Minor spoilers: What did you think? I was disappointed frankly. For one thing, Blade was more of a guest star in his own show. The show premiered at 10:03 EST. It was 11:31 before I noted Blade continuously onscreen for more than five minutes. He didn't utter more than two or three sentences u
