If you want to know how NOT to act in a Zombie Apocalypse, then this is the show for you. Otherwise steer clear of this annoying excuse of a series.
At the start we are told that we are about 6 weeks into the "End of the World as we know it" but how these people have survived this long is a mystery.
***SPOILERS***
In a country with more guns than people, no one has a weapon at the start of the series other than the soldiers. NOT EVEN A BASEBALL BAT!!!
The people in the series do nothing logically.
Lance is probably the most annoying character. How this guy has survived for a month and half is beyond belief.
He finds a supermarket that is still fully stocked and rather than barricade himself in and sit it out, he walks around the store putting items into a shopping trolley. He then leaves when a zombie walks in and shortly after stands in the middle of the road shouting.
The only character with a gun offers it up to a bunch of kids and then later, when he gets it back, shoots a zombie 18 times (I counted) and still doesn't kill him.
In the last episode when the characters managed to acquire some weapons, they get to the stadium where every single person suddenly has automatic rifles or shotguns.
One zombie appears in front of about 30 armed people and all of them empty their magazines into him. That's about 900 bullets wasted on one zombie. I could go on but I think you get the picture.
Also, the run time for each episode gets shorter and shorter with the final episode lasting less than half an hour!!!!
Whoever wrote this missed a great opportunity.
I gave this 3 stars only because it has fast zombies.
Watch Z-Nation instead, at least there are some likeable characters in that.
