It is rather disappointing that this went from the announced trilogy of Rick Grimes theatrical release movies, then to a series, and then to a limited series with only 6 episodes. It's of course pretty obvious that they aren't done yet, and that the spin-off shows are building up to some kind of reunion (the show runners have even talked about it at length), but six episodes was heinously rushed in my opinion. The entire thing builds to the big reveal, and then we get the plan to stop it, the execution, the climax, and the resolution all in one episode. And it's not even a long running episode! We used to get an hour and a half for practically nothing and this one just got bunched together and it pays for it. I get that it doesn't need the 16 episodes of the OG show's season length, but it does feel like they rushed it just to have things tie back together.
Still a 7.5 honestly, seeing Rick go all out again is very worth it. And the episodes that hit, hit in a really big way. The budget was used well.
