Ya. I'm hoping the zombies win. I can't stand the characters and their decision making. The Latino dad is probably the best. Oh, i was sort of wrong on the military being inept... they are now bad guys? WTH. They conveniently skipped the colapse too much like TWD did.
The plot seems pushed like each character defy common sense to push some plot line along. Like the "nurse" ex wife who chooses to go help the military instead of stay with her son. My wife, a doctor, just goes "no way I'd leave my kid" and I agree. The world is apparently collapsed but I'm gonna leave my family? I guess they need a connection to get the drug kid rescued...
I am not saying the show is good but I do get what they are selling.
American's are nieve and only someone (latino dad) who has lived in a place that see's real human nature in country's who struggle to survive can grasp what man/fear is capable of.
This story is being told from the perspective of the people in the story. You have no idea what is going on from the context of the bigger picture. Very much like the original show they really aren't concentrating why, what or how like they advertised they would.
You only see the military from the perspective of the individuals of the story but I don't really see them as bad guys. They are making hard decisions that have to be made. Clearly they understand at this point that people that die become infected. They have to take them out of the general population to save the population. How do you do that nicely? Can't you see how this can easily go wrong? The culling is necessary and if seen from the eye's of those culled it can be seen as evil. No one is at the point of the story like the original show is where culling is second nature.
I think the point of the show they are trying to show you is;
People are nieve and they are still trying to grasp and hold on to the ideals that served them in a society that no longer exist.
The mistake the show made so far was somehow we went from rioting and clearly still a bunch of people alive with very few zombies to an isolated group of individuals in Los Angeles with very few people around them. How did we get there?
