One thing I'll say about the more recent walking dead series is that they are more vibrant visually. There's more color but it still doesn't take away from the gloomy reality of this zombie dystopia. One of my biggest concerns about this new show is the tendency of TWD and its spinoffs to rinse and repeat storylines, even if they start off as something new and fresh. Like I was so excited for the Daryl Dixon spinoff and after a couple episodes it became just another typical TWD show. I feel a little better in that regard because the series is only gonna be 3 episodes long. And despite it being that short, it still taking time to unravel the story slowly. I think the makers have the luxury of doing so because the audience is already acclimated with the leads so they don't have to build up as many character connections; We already know why they wanna find each other. Oh never mind I just found out it's 6 episodes long on google, IMDb is only showing three.
Hesitate to judge a show based on one episode but so far it's decent. Nothing crazy, nothing epic, I wasn't at the edge of my seat but I enjoyed it. Despite introducing a whole new city and government and army(again), the show feels grounded and calm. Not rushing to just some new big battle. Like the latter of the parent tv series, it seems like this series is going to be more about human affairs than actual walkers. The walkers are simply plot points. I'm not super pumped for this series, I've seen all the twd shows and spinoffs apart from world beyond;so it's hard to get super hyped, but I am looking forward to this and hoping it'll be good.
