Why was this the best pilot ever?

Why was this the best pilot ever?

no Anakin Skywalker was the best pilot in the galaxy

Because Frank Darabont

kek

He was a cop though

Six feet under

...

XD

And he was a good friend

easily. to this day I'll still call this the best first episode of any series. i'm sure the latter seasons are decent but I haven't bothered since s3.

cause it was a decent rip off of 28 days later

fucking good night

It seemed fresh, and it set a really good tone for what turned out to be a garbage-tier dead horse of a series

>cliche zombie shit
>best pilot

Yeah ok.

Spinning was a good trick

10/10

God what a letdown of a show. It's literally all downhill from end of season 1, onwards.

...

people kept trying to get me to watch it but every time i stopped on it when flipping channels it was just boring soap opera shit

starting the zombie fan-base

>Walking Dead has a great pilot and turns into plebshit
>Z Nation has a shit pilot but turns into kino

That true? How much crap would I be slogging through before I get to something properly watchable?

iZombie is the best zombie media ever made
watch that instead

Z Nation is kino as fuck.

The whack shit that Murphy starts pulling, the head in a box, that episode with the zombie collector. Fucking brilliant.

z nation is 100-tier bad. i still watch it, and the 100. but both are lower than walking dead for sure.

It really hits its stride after the first 5 episodes or so.

don't include me in the screencap

Day of the Triffids called.

Wrong,
100 isn't entirely self conscious and self aware. It's not willing to push the book and jump the guy jumping the jumping shark all in the name of a quick joke.
Z Nation eventually does this and then some.
It's kino as fuck.

Twin peaks had the best pilot ever

This pilot was great. The ending was satisfying as fuck.

Z Nation is actually excellent.

The moral dilemma of deciding whether or not the rob those Amish people was fabulous writing. They had to weigh up dooming dozens of innocent people to death with a long, outside shot to save the world.

If saving the world were a guarantee, then it would be boring writing, as it is the classic utilitarian dilemma. Making saving the world so unlikely means that deciding to kill those innocent people is actually meaningful, as the raw numbers game no longer applies.

>kino
nice meme.
But seriously though, theyre different flavors of the same kind of pie.
One is a campy, trashy B-movie action series.
The other is a survivor drama.
I prefer the latter.

my nigga

>One is an intentionally, fun, campy B-movie action series
>The other is an unintentionally campy, trashy, survivor drama
FTFY

this desu

>iZombie
more like iWaifu

Because it aired before there was a shit-eating fanbase, like there is now....

>mfw watching the middle of Twin Peaks season 2

no i thought it was bland and boring as fuck like the rest of the show is.

Walking Dead > Pleb Nation
All who disagree are snowflake contrarians.

Early WD > Early Z Nation

Mid WD = Mid Z Nation

Late WD < Late Z Nation

It gets ok again at like episode 18-19

>Literally a rip-off of Dawn of the Dead

No.

Most recently, The Night Of had an amazing Pilot.
