Merging the old Fear with the new Fear by keeping the audience confused about time could get very irritating but so far it is nothing like as bad as the storytelling structure of The Walking Dead for the last few years. Having said that, starting this episode with a flashback to a time before the events of the end of the previous episode is a worrying misstep. Firstly, it takes away the finality of what happened and secondly, it makes the viewer terrified they are going to be subjected to the endless boredom inflicted by the parent show of retelling things over and over again from a different point of view. I know it saves money because you don't need complex setups or a proper director because voice-overs and soliloquies require no scene direction but these treading on water devices which have so ruined The Walking Dead make for very boring TV. It is difficult to see how the parent show can be redeemed now that it has been made so comprehensively awful but this show still has potential provided it doesn't take on board the worst devices of that show. This show needs to fear The Walking Dead and not recycle its mistakes.
