The Bite

A biting satire on current events, taking on the politics and the Pharmaceutical industry. All via an entertaining kind of slapstick within the confined spaces that we find ourselves in today. Apart from dealing with the COVID pandemic, it throws in a zombie virus, ensuring pandemonium of the stupidity kind.

In a delicious way it also takes a swipe at today's society by what has become the dreaded norms. Like forming opinions by researching the internet for fifteen minutes, believing the corrupted to suit your agenda, and the influences of today's stupid social media darlings.

Along the way it has fun with the "soapy drama" and schlock horror films. My best bits is the courier boy who manages to get his job done during the zombie holocaust. Season 2 should be from his point of view and how he carried out his job under zombie duress!

McDonald and Schilling play it to perfection, without going overboard, ensuring there is some silliness and laughter along the way. Maybe the writing needed a bit more development, but when you have the King's in charge (they also created. The Good Wife, The Good Fight, Evil) then I guess they can do whatever the hell they like. So enjoy...

This is a satirical comedy-drama with a great cast - and zombies. It may not win any Emmys, but it is highly entertaining. Obviously a few reviewers here are cranky because it pokes fun at their Fox News bubble, so clearly it hit its mark. Enjoy!!!

At first I didn't know if I'd like The Bite, but once I started watching, it was hilarious. This limited series is just fun. It doesn't need to be dissected, it doesn't warrant some esoteric ramblings that will bore us to tears, ignore the trolls (most haven't even seen the series and you can tell), it's simply six comedic episodes about a shaky marriage, a virus, friendships and zombies. Audra McDonald is perfect as Rachel...she brings that character to life. Taylor Schilling is also a standout and the Zombies lurching around cracks me up.

The content is so outdated already that it should be shelved as "too irrelevant".

Really bad acting, this plot has actually been done previously by at least two movies that I'm aware of.

1st episode, keep on watching, it really can grow on you.

Low budget simple locations but its upbeat .

Lots of zoom calls scenes , surprise how fun was 1st episode by the end.

Update: i tought the last episode , especially last scene was not well directed and written.
