Dead City is just another confirmation that the entire series The Walking Dead, once the most successful TV show ever, is now just a dying concept. It's a classic example of something being artificially prolonged and lacking reflection on the fans' opinions, instead blindly pursuing profits, which is a path to hell.

Season 1 - 50% - Eli Jorne wrote three episodes of the tenth season for The Walking Dead. Negan appeared in all of them, and in two of them, he was even the main character. Because these were some of the best episodes of that period, it seemed like a great idea to put him in the position of the main creator of the work, where the attention would be almost exclusively focused on the beloved and hated antihero. And then everything fell apart miserably. The Dead City is a drawn-out dragging around New York that could only last an hour and a half and still wouldn't make much sense. It comes unnecessarily fast. The first episode airs half a year after the grand finale of the original series, and it's hard to explain the time jumps right away, perhaps to justify why none of the familiar faces appear in flashbacks. Moreover, the main storyline revolves around a psychopath who can't keep his mouth shut (and the renowned slimeball Željko Ivanek plays him as a routine villain number 3), then around the incomprehensibly fiery Marshal Perlie (played as usual by the stiff Gaius Charles) and of course around Maggie, who, even long years after the apocalypse started, still does things like throwing away weapons and trusting strangers. But what's even worse - despite the crowds of enemies and hordes of undead, most of the time, I couldn't shake the feeling that nothing was happening on the screen at all. This is not how I imagined "expanding the world." Before spinning in circles, I'd rather let the brand rest.

A heavy-weight borefest profiting from the name Negan and Maggie that is so unnecessary and skippable it hurts. The recent seasons of The Walking Dead got us used to it being stupid and formulaic, with logic or any kind of suspense left by the wayside, but we've tolerated it through the fun characters that have grown on us over the years. In Dead City, however, all of that is lost and we can only judge it completely objectively based on its filmmaking qualities, and that's a big problem. Negan and Maggie have nothing to work with, there is simply nothing to show for such a simple, short and boring idea in the field of "only" (thank God) 6 episodes, so we can’t expect suspense, atmosphere or new entertaining characters, instead we watch purely walking from A to B and the creators' ridiculous to embarrassing attempts at some scares in the form of retarded zombies. Everybody acts like a bunch of idiots, the whole development is predictable one episode ahead and if you watch the three-minute recaps, you won't miss anything. Boring, boring and boring. If the next two upcoming spin-offs turn out like this, the entire The Walking Dead franchise may go down in shame and all the original fans will be left with the bitter aftertaste of a great franchise being gradually trampled into the ground, just like it happened in the last few seasons...
