Z Nation - review.
If you have not see the series or missed a couple of episodes and plan to catch-up, stop now or risk minor spoilers.
As expected it took two or three episodes for actors, writers, directors and so-on to gain their footing. As a spin-off from The Walking Dead, I expected a crossover episode. However, I was not disappointed a crossover failed to occur. The show stands on its own.
Thought I was shooting holes in some the events until I thought deeper about it. Was Citizen Z broadcasting his music and message on AM / FM radio or Satellite radio? Local ground based radio stations would lack power, so it would have to be Satellite radio...
Remaining members of the group are split-up.
Murphy continues to "change". He did have a passing romantic encounter that resulted in pregnancy. The group was forced to flee. He does not know about the pending birth of his child... What will the child be like?
Series pokes fun at a Zombie Apocalypse:
They did encounter a group of zombies on drugs like painkillers, speed and yes - Viagra. Doc or someone in the group stated, "How is that even possible?" Which leads open the question: Are zombies able to breed?
I have theory: When zombies are lacking a food supply the virus will start consuming their host body. The host body is simply a means of travel and if unable to locate human flesh to eat and process for nourishment, the virus will start consuming the host body until fresh meat is found.
Last episode offered a teasing glimpse as too whom started the Zombie Apocalypse.
Season One left us gazing skyward...
At this point, I plan to continue watching it.
As far as The Walking Dead - I am out of touch with it, a couple seasons behind. No local video rental stores nearby... Bummer...
