The show is on the face of it stock standard zombie apocalypse fare, so as you would expect some tension, some gore some chaos. What I couldn’t get to grips with is how naive/stupid most of the characters seemed to be. I get the situation is overwhelming but most of the time everyone seemed to run around (or run away) wildly shooting firearms. If this really is humanity after a zombie apocalypse we are all doomed. The acting isn’t bad but I would say the script is pretty lacklustre. A decent dose of black humour would have helped the plodding storyline. Oh and a small thing: chapter titles every 5 minutes start to become irritating. All in all this isn’t going to worry the Walking Dead franchise.
