Review of BrainDead

BrainDead (2016)
6/10
Interesting, but how long can it possibly last?

It's an interesting enough premise, but after watching the pilot I find myself thinking this would make a much better 1 shot (movie) than a series... I can't imagine how this could sustain a series.

It's full of some interesting performances, and I'm a fan of the King's production work, so I figured I'd give their new show a chance (RIP The Good Wife) - but here their last big political project had some major longevity and and obvious trajectory for development, it's very difficult to see how you could sustain anything resembling dramatic (or comedic) tension over an extended period of time.

This show has also made me hate The Cars.

Also, it's not remotely a horror show, it's akin to iZombie, not The Walking Dead.
