Im only doing this review because of all the 9 and 10 star reviews.

No. This is not the greatest TV show in history.

I am a fan of zombie movies and I am not familiar with the source material, a video game. The introduction is not a good as Dawn of the Dead 2004. The characters are not as good as The Walking Dead in the earlier season. The production quality is movie level, not blockbuster, but very high. The introduction upset me with the trope of the character being so incredibly stupid where they keep walking toward and obvious but unknown danger. This is so played out and annoying I almost turned the show off. Once the show gets into the real story, its just the same old scenario done in other stories. I am going to keep watching to see if Pedro Pascal turns to be the same kind of badass hero that Rick Grimes was in Walking dead.
