You'd expect New York to be really really dangerous. Well, it is, but maybe because the characters are stupid and not because of the zombies. It's been over 15 years since the outbreak and a character just stands in front of a glass door that's clearly giving in and simply dies when the walkers come in? Come on... even on the first TWD season people wouldn't die in such ridiculous ways. Couldn't they figure out a better way to kill characters off? The writing feels somewhat poor in that matter and also on some dialogs. I noticed mostly on the first episode, where there wasn't that much action, the conversations between Maggie and Negan felt very off.

Not all is bad, until now, every episode was better then the one before. The action scenes are cool, there's enough suspense, the cinematography is really good and the characters are interesting, I don't even notice the 40 minutes passing by. If you ignore the annoying stupid writing decisions I mentioned before, it's a really fun show to watch, i'd give it an 8 or 9 out of 10 if it wasn't for them.

If you're a TWD universe fan, you should definitely watch it. Even if you didn't finish The Walking Dead, if you know Negan that's enough.

After reading some reviews and hearing my friends talk about it, I thought it was gonna be one of the best TV shows I've ever seen. Don't get me wrong, it is good, but not that good.

First season was great, good development of characters and story, really caught my attention. When you thought you took one step forward to knowing what was happening, the show pushed you (not two) three steps back.

I feel like I lost that "need" to binge it when I got to season two (I watched Dark when the show was already concluded). It just didn't feel that compelling anymore.

Season 3: unnecessarily confusing The beginning of season three sent me 20 steps back. Then I feel like they throwed a lot of answers at the watcher. At that point I didn't even feel blown away anymore. And because they gave so many answers in the beginning of the season, you knew there was something more to fill 5/6 more episodes. Surprise, surprise, after that, they just made the story super confusing to prove a point that had already been proven. By episode 7 you finally understand what's really happening and in episode 8 you get a conclusion. The last episode was really good and saved the season, in my opinion.

Season 1: 9/10 Season 2: 7,5/10 Season 3: 6/10 As a whole: 7/10

Would I recomment it? Not really, but to each their own.
