Tales of the Walking Dead

I usually don't write reviews but after seeing the other reviews here I find this is getting tp much hate.. I Stopped watching TWD years ago but this concept seemed interesting to me, not following the same group of people all the time with stretched out drama like TWD.

So far only seen the first 2 episodes and like my title says it has potential and will watch at least the first season.

Checked it out because of Terry Crews, 1st episode was decent and funny, the 2nd episode was average, and reminded me of the Russian doll tv show.

I would give Episode 1 a 7 star, i liked the preppers premise.

Episode 2 - i could care less for, didnt find it interesting or funny, which is what they were going for. Hopefully it gets better. 4-5 stars max. Some scenes didnt make sense.

Episode 3 - looking forward to Alpha and Lydia.

They did something new, and it's kinda cool.

It's way better that the filler episodes of the main show.

The action scenes are edited poorly, so it's only the story and the cinematography to enjoy.

But overall, it's a good experiment, fun to watch.

This is kinda fun . I'm somewhat enjoying the episodes . I was the most excited for the alpha episode but first ones are decent too . The 2nd episode reminds me of Happy Death Day . Not great but one time watchable for the walking dead fans . Alpha backstory was great.

You can see a good amount of reviewers posted after 2 episodes and were disappointed that the shorts had zero relation to the original TWD. I am a anthology junkie and have loved zombies since my grandmother allowed me to watch George A Romero's original when I was 8. Here, I felt the zombie world would be a great setting that would provide endless opportunity to create original anthology content. And sporadic stories directly related to TWD was a great idea to keep us connected. The later worked out. They did really well showing how Alpha became Alpha. As with a lot of anthologies, individual episodes often have different producers and directors. The production quality of episode 3 made me more so feel like I was watching TWD. In regards to the original content, they need to step it up. If Tales From the Crypt could put out quality engaging content for the better part of 7 years, these writers should be able to put out something more gripping for 2 episodes. No disrespect to Terry Crewes. He his great in certain comedy and action hero settings. But his role as a drama lead was not convincing. Imho, the acting was quite lacking. The second episode was a little better. At first I was disappointed in how they strayed from TWD's real world setting to a sci-fi capable world. But than I remembered it is an anthology series and anything can happen...... in The Twilight zone. Do do do do, do do do do.
