Pretentious Crap

Season 1 was alright. Season 2 is just pretentious crap. I can't help feel that everything AMC touches turns to shit very quickly. The Walking Dead was the same way - engaging and new the first season. Then it has all been shit. Slow, cliched, cringey, over done shit.

So many stupid things that happen for the sake of the stupid plot to make it so. Then the whole fat guy companion, Budgie or whatever, turns out to be an abbot? Gimme a break. Then the bad Mad Max guy who pimps a woman and her daughter and makes stupid comments. But doesn't die in the end because...well, they need that baddie plot later on.

And Quinn just coming back from the dead etc.

It's all too much. As in too much nonsense. I've stopped watching after S2E8. I'll trudge through S2E10 and be done with it (with FF'ing it) but this show is a piece of shit tbh. Like TWD there's no point to this show. I mean what is the point of this show?

After S2E10 I think I'm done with this crap. The whole The 100, Lost etc. vibe, forced nonsensical death of Veil in the end like Game of Thrones style eliminate a major char makes no sense. The way Quinn dies for the 2nd time no less also is insanely stupid. Minerva changing was also moronic. And the fat abbot getting to some transmission center to transmit ... morse code (really?) with no apparent power but somehow this setup has power made no sense.

Very poor and lame show deserving to be canceled. A poor 4/10 from me overall for this show

All pretty minor complaints really. Still , if you dont want to continue...your perogative
