    boredom all the way

    Watched the entire episode in 2 minutes by skipping through. i want the series to blow me away.. it's boring.. episode 3 will be a mushroom growing in the forest. super exited.. bring us the action.. something we've not seen before.. and not that slow pace wanna be character studies.. bring em all to new york for a mission and robot zombies and new stuff.. whatever.. you dont need to make whole episodes like this.. you could make that clear in 2 minutes.. my day is ... now .. thx

    add on: i just read people writing things like "good filler episode".. wtf ?! why do they even exist ? lets make episodes that are not so good to fill the series.. this is so sad.. :D .. with each episode they could feed countries for a year.. whats that ?!?!?!? bring rick back.. its not just about rick.. go crazy with the story.. this is just dull..

    That acting though...

    This is an amazing episode for the Whisperers. The writing is superb and the acting - just wow! The last couple of minutes gave me goosebumps. Also loved that arc with the sisters - thought for a sec that the blonde woman was Winnie, one of the psycho kids that Michonne spared before the time-jump.

    The only thing that felt a bit off was the editing during the final scene. Alpha sees something in the distance and shortly after that we have this strange cut to the scene from episode 1 where she spots Carol. In the previous episode, however, she randomly came out of the woods and it seemed like she was enjoying some fresh air or something. So it doesn't really make sense that she acts like she sees something while she is in the woods in episode 2. Get what I mean? I'm from Europe and my English might be a little off :D

    I'm... Stunned.

    Okay look, I was so certain this episode was going to be one of my least favorite of the season. And I consider myself a critical reviewer when giving scores, but this episode, much to my surprise, is a 10/10.

    The acting, the music, the atmosphere, the editing and cinematography, the overall storytelling; it was flawless. The only thing I can think of that would deter you from liking this episode is if you already don't care for Alpha or the Whisperers as antagonists. Other than that, I don't see how anyone could rate this episode lower than a great 8/10.

    As entertaining as dysentry

    Rubbish, pure turgid rubbish. Poor dialogue, over the top acting, masks that look like Yoda with leprosy. This series is as doctors put it on patients notes CTD, circling the drain.

    How Alpha Met Beta

    "The Walking Dead - We Are the End of the World" shows in flashback how Alpha met Beta. The deranged character and her daughter seek for shelter in an old building where their first encounter is. The episode is only reasonable and the viewer has an idea how disturbed they are. My vote is seven.

    Title (Brazil): "Nós Somos o Fim do Mundo" ("We Are the End of the World")

    Note: On 07 January 2024, I saw this episode again.

    • Trivia
      Playing a younger version of Lydia isn't the only thing these two actresses have in common. They're sisters! Havana Blum played Lydia in this episode, and her younger sister Scarlett appeared in Lydia's flashback last season.
    • Goofs
      Last season Beta had his bottom teeth knocked out. This season they are back.
