Is it just me or was the direction during the early parts kind of shaky? It got a lot better by the end of the episode but the quality was really jarring in the beginning.
Having said that, what on earth is going on now?
I think that the episode was just so jam-packed with stuff, between Zona and all of its Zona-ness and whatever is up with Warren, reacquainting us with the characters and their new situations, and Henry Rollins as the friendliest soldier ever, the episode was kind of a mess. Not bad in any way but it was definitely straining as it was getting the new status quo up and running. Like I literally have no idea what happened during Doc's intro, can he teleport? Or does he have a robot duplicate he uses as bait? 'Cause all I saw was him getting grabbed by some zombies and then suddenly he is behind them with his hammers a-ready.
Still, great to have this wonderful show back. Between 'genuinely happy to see Warren' Murphy, Warren's ridiculous post-awakening heels, Michael Berryman, the surprisingly poignant dual tellings of 5k's fate, and, oh my, an eye-patched, Lucy-bit Addy?
It is so good to have this back.
