Best episode yet, finally something.... Next one looks "good"

All you Chris haters may get your wish.

There were definitely moments in this episode. One thing I find interesting is that they're not afraid to kill kids in this show, unlike TWD. But rehashing the farm.... I dunno. I also don't quite get Celia's motivation for actively killing off that whole church. Maybe that will be made clearer next episode?

It all most seems like she is running a death cult, that coin that a skull on it.

Show was better, but I still want someone to shoot Chris in the face.

I am happy Strand didn't kill himself. I suspect there will be come conflict between he and the Matriarch of the compound. She seems focused on her son not being shot in the head.

Weren't they on their way to attack the compound when they all bit it?
Thomas was even trying to talk the priest out of it.
I think the locals know what is going on at the farm...

Ugh, I still don't like any of these characters. The argument between Mom and Dad was sooo painful.

Weird unceremonious departure from the boat. Just, boat for 6 episodes, then no boat.

Next episode looks decent enough, weird they can't put together a complete season though.

If I have to watch an entire episode with Chris and Travis...

Lots of frustrating moment is this episode where characters don't act like human beings would act, especially Travis and his Wife around their respective kids.

It's funny how things flipped.
Nick is now (imo) the most interesting character and everyone else can go get bit as far as I'm concerned.

Story is meh, the actors are really awful. Matty and the Dad are beyond bad. I'll probably keep watching but I'm hoping some more interesting story arcs are coming.

This was actually an interesting episode. Nothing like a group divided.

The premise was good. The execution. Ugh.

And that's it, really. The acting is abhorrent. The two main characters stink at it.

I burned through the whole S2 this past crappy weather weekend in time to watch the finale. They seem to copy a lot from TWD.
like Connor, he was the evil twisted bad guy, ala governor and, uh, this latest bad guy, but we never see any kind of crazy from him. he has a docked boat and he cooked lunch for the girl????
Also, what happened to the oriental girl from the plane? last I saw, she said, "Nobody uses me", and then I can't recall.

But what about the Nick and Ophelia love story?

The whole chris going crazy and pointing the gun at his father? Just awful acting and bad storyline.

Instead of Daniel's wife, it should've been Cecilia coming out from behind the zombies, after all Maddy had just locked her in there.

In a mid-season finale, there should be a cliffhanger of something crazy; nothing of that sorts happened. It'll take them an episode or two to bring all these bafoons back together.

I suspect maybe Cecilia escaped when Daniel was fartin' around before lighting the fire.

The seam to be dropping characters all over the place, so they probably have a plan so that in season 3.5 or 4.8 we will be like, HEY IT'S CONNOR!

This show is really starting to suck.


It could really have been good.

This show has sucked way more than it has been decent. Of the 14(?) episodes aired so far, I would only consider a couple to be "good". I just keep waiting and hoping the zombies kill most of these characters.

The acting is so bad in this show. I watched most of season 1 and then dropped it. Being stuck inside on the weekend as AMC aired all of season 2, so I gave it another chance, I regret that decision now.

The mom and dad need to be bitten ASAP!!
