Honestly I'm guessing all the low scores are angry men. Typical. Other than that they did a great job of making this into a show. Remember TWD was a comic too and they changed a lot so people could be surprised and not predict every little thing. And no movie or show is every gonna follow a book scene by scene so chill out. Go in with no expectations and just watch it. Yea some of the writing is meh but overall it's an enjoyable watch.
