    Even worse than the first episode

    Why do I care for these characters? The disjointed non-linear way in which this story is told completely diminishes any emotional impact that I'm supposed to feel.

    Technically this is fine work, but focusing on individual characters to create this story is a misfire. I'm not sure I even want to continue.

    Better than 1st episode but the editing is still lousy.

    This one focuses more on the apocalypse like state n more on the character of Larry Underwood. The crow popping the horse's eye is downright creepy. But like one reviewer pointed out that aft Walking Dead n the real life pandemic situation, this one arrived late for the party. Again this one too was not able to create any tension or suspense.

    Ignore the negative and enjoy the difference

    Yes it has timeline hopping. If you pay attention it is fine.

    The only negative for this episode is Amber Herds casting as Nadine. She just doesn't have enough depth as an actress that this role needs. All the other actors are on point.

    Keep the faith

    Episode 2 much better

    Episode 2 much better than Episode 1. In depth development of Larry and Lloyd. A very good cast. There is less skipping around. Flashbacks are less numerous and more in depth. Can't wait for Episode 3. I give Episode 2, a seven.

    PANDEMIC

    This makes the first one look like Citizen Kane. Just awful characters. Who would have thought I would miss Molly Ringwald. Just another attempt at being "woke" that doesn't fit with the story.

    • Trivia
      Ralph Brentner and Judge Farris are male in the novel but become female in the miniseries. The Brentner character is renamed Ray (played by Irene Bedard).
    • Goofs
      In the opening when Larry Underwood [Jovan Adepo] is attaching the propane tank to the grill, he turns the connector counterclockwise which would loosen it, rather than attach it.
