Z Nation Review

This episode was somewhat of a setback for the Z Nation TV series. It had some great, funny moments. The Z Weed was somewhat clever and Athena’s short lived appearance had plenty of potential. Unfortunately, the rest of the episode was chaotic and all over the place. 10k’s sniping skills disappeared and the zombies turned invincible.

The introduction of blaster zombies was interesting though. Overall, just a decent episode, which deserves a 6 out of 10. Be sure to catch up with more Z Nation review and recaps now.
