Syfy Releases First Look at Zombie Series Z NATION

While it’s not always wise to judge a series by its TV spots, sometimes you are given an indication of what kind of show it will be. If the first TV spot for Syfy‘s upcoming zombie series Z Nation is such an indication, it looks very much like the serialization of a Syfy Original Movie. Only you can decide for yourself if that is a good or bad thing:

TV Spot: Z Nation

Oh yikes, what have they done to Harold Perrineau? Even if you never watched Lost (what?!!) or any of the other series he’s been on, you can see from the most recent Constantine trailer that he is an excellent actor. Oh, maybe he’s been infected and is turning really slowly. Because that line delivery… yowie.

But I digress. It’s really unfair to prejudge the series based on this one TV spot. But if you prefer your zombies to be more in-your-face and the script to be less ‘introspective’ than, say, The Walking Dead, this may be the zombie show you’ve been waiting for.

Z Nation, starring Harold Perrineau, Tom Everett Scott, DJ Qualls, Michael Welch, Kellita Smith, Anastasia Baranova, Russell Hodgkinson, and Keith Allan, premieres in September on Syfy.
