Star_Surfer

What a journey! I expected this to be a pure monster show. But it turned into a commentary on the human condition. What does it mean to be human is a fascinating topic. There was so much substance in the story. A lot of the acting was stunning!! There was character development for days!! The chemistry of the cast was great. Even though this was an action drama, they gave such a good sense of who the characters were. They really humanized the apocalypse genre. The cinematography was great. The sets were amazing. Such a clever way of telling a story through a location. This illustrated the best and worst of humanity so well. The jump scares got me, especially in the beginning. I was also impressed with how well the female characters were written. The tension was kept all season. I really did start to care for a number of the characters! I'm invested. I need to see more.

I will say the CGI of the monsters did leave something to be desired. The timeline was a little confusing. The level of gore was a little bit more than I would prefer.
