This show is a love letter to Coen Brothers Movies. The references for me are very fun Easter Eggs, sometimes very obvious and sometimes very obscure. I love it every single time I spot one no matter how obvious. I never get on people for their tastes and appreciation or dislikes of any art. But this is a rare case…

As to the subtlety mentioned, One of the main things that frustrates me about this show is the lack of subtlety and the amount of spell-it-out story telling to a dumbed down viewing audience it uses. Notice the editing, close-ups, etc. I always have to temper my criticism and say that this show has slightly improved…

This might have been asked in this discussion already. But does the reviewer @zhandlen rate this against other shows in general or just against other episodes of The Walking Dead? Because either way an A- is an extremely generous grade.
