Tales of the Walking Dead

Ok, so final verdict. Tales of the Walking Dead is a bit campy and doesn't take itself too seriously, which makes the lackluster acting almost tolerable. The story itself turned out to be not too bad, albeit somewhat corny. Next week, it looks like it has the same undertones. Almost silly. If they do it well, it'll be something to watch, as long as you don't expect any real suspense like we've come to expect with its predecessors.

Conclusion? If you go into this with zero expectations and you do NOT compare it to TWD, it's a watchable show. I don't see it winning any awards, but I almost enjoyed how bad it was. This really is one you have to judge for yourself. Some people will love it, some will hate it, some will be right in between. But don't listen to other reviewers, try it yourself and form your own opinion.

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.

Didn't think I'd say this about a TWD show, but this show is beyond redemption.

From stories to acting, it's going nowhere. Even the teen actors who were in 'The World Beyond' had promising acting skills than of these adults who we can see in this series.

Seems like the production house had thought of making something without a content just because there has been an audience who loves the original series. Truly disappointing.

I do not recommend this series to anyone.

There are quite a few numbers of prequels and sequels to check out instead of wasting time on this.

PS: I hope not to see 'Alpha' again. That character was the least interesting one in the original series, but they keep bringing her back.

Its not unwatchable, nothing like that. However it does not add much value to TWD universe. If you see it as a standalone thing, and not a piece of the puzzle, it doesnt stand.

After all the attempts, I have a feeling that the next really good content would have to fast forward untill new fully developed (and yet promitive) societies have emerged, a completely new setting with new opportunities for plots, drama and action. As long as its characters vs other characters in the setting dominated by walkers, I am afraid we have seen it all already.
