Or it is a subjective and qualitative opinion.

The show was absolutely about the girls as much as it was reality in the apocalypse. Even if the young characters were a tool to tell the larger story then the tool needs to work properly to get the message out. I got the message, but it wasn't as powerful as it could have been if there had been a better performance out of the kids.

I don't understand why and others' objections are just hastily disregarded as unqualified complaining. We can enjoy the show and critique it at the same time.
