Yeah I didn’t think it was very entertaining either. Some good performances but boring overall. I’m loving The Last of Us though.

I watched all of station 11 and loved the episodes with the early days of the outbreak but every time it went back to present day with that stupid traveling shakespeare company I wanted to fast forward.

Yep. I loved the first episode and then it went downhill for me.

The outbreak is my favourite part of every pandemic show/movie, especially zombie ones. It’s actually why I’ve been enjoying The Last of Us so much, every episode has had an outbreak flashback.

28 Days Later is the only film I think skipping most of the outbreak made better. The Walking Dead is extra bad because it skipped the outbreak and it copied 28 Days Later’s start exactly

Same.

I can see why people like it, but it's strengths are not in action like tlou.

It's very much a post apocalyptic story that has very little interest in the post apocalyptic part.

Well TLOU just proved it has strengths far beyond action.

Sure but it involved the post apocalyptic setting and embraced it instead of just being set dressing like in Station Eleven.

I felt the same way about station 11
