A confusing, sometimes entertaining mess

The show that doesn't truly know, which identity to choose for itself, which results in a very weird tone of the series.
It has very, very over-the-top slapstick comedy, especially at the beginning, which didn't really work for me. Later on, it gets a bit better, but when this type of comedy, zombie apocalypse and the romance that suppose to be highlighting how hard it is for relationship to survive, when the guy is going through mandatory military training, get thrown in together, it is way to much and the storylines are not coherent at all. Finding new ways of killing zombies and escaping from them by the characters is the only saving grace of this show and I very much enjoyed the combination of comedy and gore there.
The acting is a hit or miss for me. It sometimes feels like actors do not match each other and that results in probably even weirder tone of the show overall.
The ending clearly suggest that the show can continue, but I won't be watching anymore of it. Waste of time.
