I'm going to be showing my age here, but based on the two episodes here, Atlanta could have the humorous, observed feel of the late, lamented Frank's Place. Look that up.

On your one point, I find it frustrating how how under-armed (or unarmed) most of these characters are. If I'm gonna walk around with a wandering herd of zombies, blood-and-guts makeup job or not, I'm going to be armed to the fucking teeth.
It take it you've missed season 3 (!) of Tyrant, as well.
Same issue as FTWD, though: Promising premise ruined with terrible characters. Sure, there's Fet and Satrakian, but Eph and the rest? Jesus…
You know, I'm not of Mexican descent (sorry, Trump), but I feel kind of insulted by this show's treatment of Mexican characters. They're either violent and lawless gang members, or clueless boobs, falling for some cult leader's quasi-religious explanation for the outbreak.
Whenever anyone voices suicidal thoughts on these shows, most often, in a couple of episodes, they get their wish.
Yeah, Nate Parker!
I tried to get more people into Narcos during the first season, without much luck. I don't know if it was the 80's setting, or the subtitles, or the relentless brutal violence, but some folks seemed put off. I guess Escobar took the anti-hero stuff over into total villainy.
I don't expect the biweekly schedule on most of these titles to last forever. It's attention-getting, and it provides the illusion of saving readers money (Marvel's $3.99 monthlies vs. DC's $2.99 bi-weeklies = nearly $6 a month), but it's hardly sustainable in the long term.
The thing is, fans did not arrive at the idea that Watchmen was inviolate on our own. For nearly 20 years following its release, DC also fostered the idea that the series was an untouchable comic milestone. It has been only under Dan Didio's regime that they have actively been using Watchmen as an ATM machine.
I just realized recently that when Sheriff of Babylon ends, so ends my association with Vertigo. And this from someone who was a major Vertigo fan for years.
I've been looking forward to this show. The promos with the hang-out feel. That Tame Impala song that I love. Presumably unfettered Donald Glover. But I never knew what it was "about" until I read this article.."Twin Peaks with rappers?" I'm in.
As I tracked it, the more Chandra saw the red flags popping up around Naz (the two school assaults, the Adderall pushing, the growing collection of prison tats), the more attracted she became.
Annnnndddd… So ends the McConnaissance.
What mammoth corpse, though? Sandrine Holt is all skin and bones.
Based on what we've seen so far, all Batman would have to do to defeat these foes is push over their walkers.
Ideally, this show should have been Gotham Central, about the GCPD, with little to no Batman at all.
I lost interest around the time the second (or was it third?) mayor got murdered, and a substantial portion of the GCPD got massacred.
Visually, maybe. But that voice! Even backwards!
Forgive me for thinking logically, but exactly what has Leslie Jones done to receive such scorn from these racist pencil-dicks? To my knowledge, she's not seeking "free stuff" from the government. She's not a member of Black Lives Matter, or any of those other straw men that the alt-right conjures up.
