Zomboat!

Found this little gem while browsing on Hulu -- Zomboat! I (oddly perhaps) enjoy a unique treatment of the zombie genre, and Zomboat is definitely unique. It's quite well produced, acted and conceived -- even down to the quirky longboat our heroes commandeer down the narrow canal leading to London while escaping zombies. The many references to pop culture and wry humor, combined with charming dialog took me by surprise. With only 6 episodes in total, the story ends rather abruptly across the final episode. I could've enjoyed more. This isn't Gone With the Wind, but it absolutely is Zomboat!

Looking at the other reviews it seems this series has really polarised opinion - people love it or hate it. I'm in the 'love it' camp. I think you either get it or you don't.

Fresh, fair storyline, good scripting & well acted. The writers obviously had tongues firmly in cheeks while creating it. It lost a couple of points due to the whole zombie thing being a bit clichéd and a paucity of good Brummie accents.

I'm hoping we get more, Ozzie Osborne would make a fantastic guest star!

Only 1s and 9/10s at the moment both of which are obviously wrong. It is certainly not a 1 - it is a bit of silly fun and quite watchable. On the basis of the first episode I would put this in the 6.5-7 range. I'll be tuning in for the second episode.

This is a fun show, love the humor and the way it's shot. I hope they keep the episodes coming.

Ok, so I don't usually write reviews but.. dang. This is one of the best shows I've seen... in forever. The acting, the humor, the zombies, the terror, the dialogue, the EVERYTHING. This show nails it all. It's so rewatchable especially if you're just looking for something that's light hearted, creepy, and easy to follow. As someone who's watched every zombie flick and show out there, this show is an absolute must see. You won't regret it.
