Do you like drone shots of cell phone towers and trauma porn? If so, this series is for you!! This guy must've just bought a drone and wanted to get his money's worth, and he sure did!
This series is filled with repetitive interviews with the same few people who have been interviewed thousands of times, saying the same story everyone already knows... Mostly capitalizing on the trauma the families went through, and making them relive it, adding no new information to the case. Mix that in with drone shots of various cell phone towers, and small Iowa towns... and that sums up this series... The whole thing is very amateurishly done, moves slowly, and is extremely repetitive.
"Oh no, someone mentioned cell phones again! Let's show the cell phone tower drone footage for the 400th time!!" 300 hours of footage? 250 of that had to be b-roll drone shots of cell phone towers. 😂😂
If you've already heard this story, this guy offers nothing new... it's very slow moving and seems like the filmmaker was more interested in interviewing himself, than actually helping this family or the case. Which adds nothing to the film besides getting his name and face out there. Which seemed like his ultimate goal with this series. The conspiracy theory ending was pretty pitiful as well. I'd give this 1000 stars if I could get the 3 hours back it took to watch it lol.

The Walking Dead needs new writers/directors/show runners. Something needs to change if they want to make The Walking Dead great again.
After the longer than usual break due to the pandemic, World Beyond could have been a very good opportunity for them to refresh The Walking Dead universe. They could have gotten new viewers, and re-energized the old fans... Instead they decided to double down on the slow, barely anything happens, plotlines. They stuck with the completely unbelievable, brain dead decision making from characters that has plagued TWD and FTWD. Which makes sense considering the brain dead decision making that comes from writers who think a (what should be) one episode story arc should take 5 years to be told... And season finales that nothing happens except a cliffhanger that you have to wait 6 months to find out what happens. This has ruined any hope they would learn from past mistakes.
The only new feel this show has from previous TWD shows is they tried too hard to turn it into a cliche teen drama. It's what a 45 year old man writing a teen drama would think a teen show would be. It feels like they tried too hard to appeal to teens/young adults but missed the mark by just using stereotypical teen stuff that someone who isn't a teen would think of doing. It's like adultsplainin (a spinoff of mansplaining). The pandering just seems too obvious and takes you out of the story.
Since there have only been 2 episodes released I am hoping it gets better, but if not, at least we know we only have 2 seasons to put up with... Unlike the real zombie... The Walking Dead.
