Fear the Walking Dead is a new television show that aired on August 23 2015. This new show is based around the hit TV series The Walking Dead, and is set in Los Angeles at a time when the zombie apocalypse is just taking place. After watching the first episode I can tell that this show will prove to be just as popular as The Walking Dead.

fear2One might say that the first episode was a little slow and mainly focused on dialogue, but this is simply used in order to give the viewer a connection between each of the main characters and allow us to understand the life of these characters before the zombie outbreak begins. When the episode first launches there is excitement, but quickly changes pace to a more calm and relaxed setting during the middle, then builds intensity towards the end, quickly grasping the viewers’ attention at last moment and making us want more.

Even if you are not a Walking Dead fanatic this television series is new, exciting, and shows a new take on the zombie world.
