"Fungus" - Audiences laugh. "We lose" - Audiences silence. That's horrifying.
-
In less than five minutes they did what The Walking Dead couldn't do at their show in 11 seasons
-
The shots of the audience when he's describing "billions of puppets with poisoned minds fixated on a single goal" are absolutely chilling.
-
I like that the doctor doesn't just talk about cordyceps but also talks about fungus in general about how it adapts and survives.
-
no jumpscares, no ghosts, but the scariest scene i’ve watched.
-
They should do more pre-extinction scenes like this in season 2. It's a wonderful way to break up the pacing and establish more of the world.
-
I love how John Hannah went from being actor who mostly did comedy to more serious roles, being "that exposition guy", somewhere after he got the part in Spartacus. Dude can deliver exposition for five minutes and not make it dull.
-
The perfect contrast between a doctor who have studied these type of things his whole life, and doesn't feel the anxiety and the panic anymore, he just accepts the facts, and someone who just heard the possibilities for the first time and now is feeling pure terror. Brilliant.
-
“We lose” followed by that dire silence Another top “oh shit” moment
-
scariest scene i've ever seen by just talking, the silence of the crowd is horrifying...great job from the actors, writers and director.
-
the most horrifying "slightly warmer" for any heat loving human.
-
What I love about this scene the most is the fact that he isn’t even saying it’d be strictly from cordyceps, but any fungus given the right circumstances can become a threat
-
The gradual shift from amusement to horror on the TV host's face is just so damn perfect, that scene in particular sends chills up my spine.
-
This is by far, one the greatest intros to a show ever. You have a professor, specialist explaining in simple terms, the seriousness of a pandemic of this kind, followed by the ignorance and sarcasm from the host and audience. By the end of it though, the look on the hosts face, is priceless
-
They sold the show in less than 5 minutes. It was godly. Absolutely hooked from the start
-
The only zombie theory that actually puts fear to my heart. Also, even if it dosn't evolve to kill us. It could evolve to spread faster among our food supply, plantations, meat etc, which would be a dramatic hit to our survival as well.
-
The director Craig Mazin is a genius, he made 1 of the most captivating and horrifying series with Chernobyl and does it again in this opening.
-
At first, everyone is amused by the notion. The further he explains, the more colder you feel the room become as the audience becomes more and more unnerved by his every words about the horrifying nature of how dangerous fungi could be.
-
One of the best monologues from a TV show ever. In only 3 minutes we have established how the apocalypse is going to happen and even worse; we’ve established how easily it will destroy humanity. Amazing writing and a brilliant performance from John Hannah. This really set the tone for the rest of the show
