Badass leads, sloppy writing, wasted potential.

This is a zombie-ish series with two badass mature leads—FL is an anti-terrorist specialist, and ML is a cop. Together, they make an insane duo for a zombie-themed plot. The twist? There’s a drug that turns people into zombies, but after a while, they just… turn back to normal. Instead of eating people, they drink blood like vampires. Kinda gives All of Us Are Dead vibes, but with adults.

Now, onto the good stuff. The leads have insane chemistry, and their action scenes? Fire. They’re not perfect, which makes them more human, but at the same time… they make some questionable choices. Like, FL is a trained anti-terrorist officer, yet she casually opens a truck full of zombies in episode 2 to save one person. Then she touches blood on the wall like it’s some mystery substance—girl, you’re a cop, do you really need to sniff it to confirm?!

The side characters? Straight-up annoying.

The lawyer? Only cares about money.
That rep woman? Acting like it's an election.
The two cleaners? Just as irritating as everyone else.
The doctor? Absolute trash—cheated, killed his wife, and basically got half the people killed.
The biggest problem? The writing. This is a zombie series with adults, but the characters act dumber than high schoolers. Like, come on, they’re professionals, not some clueless teenagers. The final twist? A letdown. The so-called biggest villain is just some serial killer? And the ending? Suddenly, everyone’s immune and cured within a year? Yeah, right. COVID was harder to contain than this so-called zombie rabies.

This show had so much potential, but the writing killed it. Fun watch, but don’t expect logic.
