The serious and moody main girl, the rebellious girl who breaks the rules, the nerdy guy who dresses funny, the fat kid who gets picked on and a handful of side characters who's only reason for existing is for the main characters to interact with and spout out exposition dialogue to explain how the world works and advance the plot. Instead each character in this "New world" is given one trait that defines their entire personality you get the typical cast of clique characters. The first issue I have with this show is that the main characters are all teenagers which would be fine if they had any kind of personality or interesting character development.
Walking dead world beyond tv#
The Walking Dead: World Beyond is what can only be described as the "Teenage" version of The Walking Dead this may sound like a bit of rush to judgement after watching only two episodes but there's a big difference between a TV show that begins with a slow start and one that can't even get the basics right. The Walking Dead has always been a franchise that's aimed primarily towards adults weither it's the TV shows or the Comics The Walking Dead has always been filled with high levels of violence, gore, zombies, harsh language with interesting and likable characters and storylines that have always been serious and thought provoking.

The show has gone on just a bit too long at this point and really needs to wrap things up but I would rather watch a declining Walking Dead TV show than one that started only two weeks ago and is already as low as it can go in terms of story and quality. The Walking Dead is now on it's ninth season and has slowly been declining in quality since season seven. I usually don't review new TV shows after watching only two episodes but I don't see myself watching this show any further. This is the CW does Zombie Apocalypse and if you know anything about CW shows then you get this statement. Seriously, the guy has petitions to fire him online he's that bad and hated. Think it's time to can this guy and quit giving him shows to ruin. Funny, how he's at the helm of this one from the start and it's a flaming bag of dog doody from the get go. Apparently there's a guy named Scott Gimple behind this show, first he ruined TWD, then got moved to FTWD and when they saw the pattern repeating were smart enough to yank him off that one before he did too much damage to it. It's just garbage.pure, rotting, stinky garbage. There's a female marine that acts like Rocky? What? Another who's name is sheer irony named "Hope" who is the most pessimistic annoying millennials teen you'll ever see on TV. You root for the Zombies every time they appear but to no avail. Yeah, this review will just get lost in the other 800+ 1* reviews and that's ok, I'm just writing this to vent because this show is that bad. But if you're at all like me - you'll wish you'd just passed it by. After all, someone makes Kardashians and other reality shows popular. Maybe the perception of the modern young person is different enough to like this. UNLESS, of course, you are in that youthful demographic. Some shows, I might say "it's not for me, but give it a shot, maybe it's more your cup of tea." But not this one. I don't see those redeeming complexities, here. Either they were more deeply layered, or had fun/excitement/action, or were just plain funny enough, to be enjoyable. Now, I've seen show aimed at teens or kids, which I truly enjoyed.

There was nothing uncanny about them, their skills, or their situation which made it seem plausible. The problem is, in TWD universe - they'd be DEAD.

Not only is the plot centered around a bunch of teens, but they seem to think like teens, and make stupid typical teen mistakes. To me, this show was seriously lacking in depth, complexity, intelligence, sensibility - even redeemable action or superficial excitement (or fun). somewhat past my teenage years, I can't presume to speak for the predominant mindset and culture of that demographic. I have a hard time assessing this from the lens of a teen.
