Episode 4 "Not Fade Away" Great song to open the episode. Interesting seeing the military quarantine set up and funny their leader was such a massive jerk. The pacing in this was much slower than the previous episode unfortunately. It was pretty cool seeing Maddie escape the safe zone in an attempt to investigate the flashing light in Chris' video though. Kind of funny seeing her slap around her junky son as well. I thought they did a good job establishing the military shouldn't be trusted. With only two episodes left I'm curious what's next.

I got bored with it and turned it off halfway through. It's definitely not holding my attention like Walking Dead did/does.

I think i will download it and give it a watch I liked the early seasons of the walking dead but it didn't go anywhere for me, I wanted to know more about how it started or work towards trying to find some kind of cure - it does neither just more episodes about day to day life under the situation. Maybe thinks will be different with this one.

I like the show. I probably won't watch the Walking Dead again. But I like watching how this is building up. One thing I didn't like about the last episode was how it was setup for the Father character to see what happened with the people in the home across the city. And the Mother's actions were kind of silly since she knows what's out there.
The season seems short though so maybe they are speeding things up a bit. Only two more episodes left I think till next year. |

Its mostly meh for me. What I did like, SPOILERS AHEAD:
was at the end of the third episode they were going to try to leave to go to the desert and wait out what was happening, but the army shows up and they stay home. They didn't quickly, by the third episode I mean, go in for another group of people avoiding large populated areas like in The Walking Dead. Though being stuck in the 5 mile fenced in area makes for dullness. End spoilers I think it would have been a lot better if the show were done from the military's perspective.

I don't think it's dull. It's showing what real people would do that put trust in their government. And discovering, slowly, what's going on. Where in Walking Dead the city was already overrun.
There isn't any stupid shock value stuff yet. That's why I gave up on Walking Dead. I felt like character deaths were for surprise. Or the rule of too many minority characters. |

Quote:
I agree on the deaths in The Walking Dead. I watch it because its an ok show and I tend to watch tv while I eat(its rare these days I'll sit down to watch a tv show. Like This is England. So very wonderful.). The Walking Dead has become how annoyed can you get with the same killing people over and over. Basically oh hey, things are looking up for us! And then the zombie gods shit all over them. Repeated over and over and over.

I don't think it would be dull in real life. I would be scared. Zombies might play on the idea of the masses against the few. I haven't given it a lot of thought and I don't know the origin of zombies. But if you look at riots and how the masses act against a few it can be crazy.

Episode 5 "Cobalt" This episode was a bit better than the last and I thought the tension throughout was pretty good. The military prison camp and medical center scenes were really unsettling. I'm not sure what to make of the salesman character just yet and am curious as to why he saved Nick. I am liking the Salazar character despite him taking the young soldier hostage and torturing him. Travis' ride along was interesting and I wasn't expecting the military unit to become overwhelmed so easily. Liza having to shoot Ofelia in the head was kind of heartbreaking. I'm curious to see who survives the finale next week.
