It's a zombie apocalypse show, so I accept that there will be some decisions that procaine an eye roll. But every. Singe. Decision? Lance should have been dead after his feature episode- the fact that he made it to season two (albeit for 5 mins) is a miracle. He made so many downright stupid decisions I'm amazed he lasted as long as he did.
Him aside, the rest of the characters weren't much better to be fair. In the first five minutes of season two, two people manage to take control of the only working car in their area by killing someone for it- only to crash it 100ft later rather than taking 2 seconds to clean the window when there was no present threat!
Aside from stupid decisions, we have stupidity in general. From the get go they know that these thing can only be killed with a head shot. With limited ammunition why do they then insist on emptying a dozen or so rounds into the torso of every zombie before going for a headshot?
Damn near every car is out of fuel, which makes no sense. EVERY car is out, so the survivors have to fight over fuel and running vehicles after less than 6 weeks?
Lance stumbles across a supermarket that hasn't been raided in the 6 or so weeks since the event? It's unlocked and still has enough electricity going to operate the automatic doors!
Writing decisions aside, the acting is pretty average, maybe even below. Heavy breathing and staring is not acting! I still don't care about any of the characters because they all seem to blend together as one massive blob of blandness.
The show has been shot with a very specific style. It comes off as almost clinical- the houses and shops mostly being white or shades not far off, with very bland backdrops. It seems to be intentional, which I find odd for a zombie show. It doesn't really fit with what they're trying to convey.
