I've watched the first three episodes (out of four), and I am thinking of deleting the season pass. The idea of the show is fine, but execution is simply terrible-- stilted dialogue, flat, unsympathetic characters, hackneyed complications, and so much more not happening in it.

I was so excited by this, but would have to change supplier to watch
Happy I didn't
How could it be so wrong? Such a great fresh approach to a show?

I'm sticking with it. Hopefully it will get stronger. I know that certain seasons of TWD suffered because of budgetary reasons, and I feel as if this show is being made with very little money. For example, scripting the riot scene as they did with the characters taking shelter and only hearing and feeling the riot going on outside was one way to avoid the expense of filming a realistic riot.

My biggest grip is heroin addict boy and the way they're attempting to treat him. No one gets a seizure and dies from opiate withdrawal. That's alcohol. Come on, writers. Do your homework.

It was a mistake and should be cancelled after this short season. It won't be, but it should be. Hopefully it doesn't stick around too long, because stunningly inept cash grabs shouldn't be rewarded.

Now that Fear the Walking Dead is back, I expect Jasper to make an appearance again.
