God this show is terrible. With the openjng sequence, did anyone else get the impression that someone finally heard of Fallout so decided to go with old timey music?
The directing is just so poor. An example is at the beginning where Rick and a few others are running from the horde through town. All the sudden they're surrounded! It looks like all hope is lost...until Blondie shoots 2 whole zombies freeing up a path to escape. So uh, I guess 2 zombies were the difference between just running away and certain death? It just looked so retarded.
There was also Rick shooting at zombies when there are literally hundreds behind them. What the fuck good is shooting maybe 10 of them going to do?
Oh, and Maggie climbing the watchtower made of planks of wood tied to the wall. Somehow these zombies were capable of almost tearing down that wall on the highway, but ripping through a few ropes is too much. Or really any door in the show so far.
Those scenes could have been shot to make sense, but they're just lazy. It's infuriating.
I haven't even made it 10 minutes into this episode and I'm already almost ready to turn it off.
