Trying to reserve judgement until the season is out, I know they have there own traditional protocol at HBO, but I think it would've better served the show to have the whole series been released at once.

I feel like no one is saying this and I'm just gonna say it: the stupid tendrils coming from the mouths are heartbreakingly stupid. A freshly infected old woman is just going to have those things poke out her mouth within hours of infection? They're trying too hard to differentiate from other zombie shows and I think the tendrils are a mistake. There was plenty of room for growths later in the show and there was no need to spend CGI budget on something so absurd when they could of sold it as a 28 days later style zombie thriller and reveal the visual fungal parts later on in the series.

Other than that, I guess it was an okay pilot episode. I wish I could watch the whole season already like the press was able to last week. But those tendrils are killing me.
