The Bite

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.

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...

Very enjoyable mix of sci-fi, horror, drama, and comedy. Wish it was available to a wider audience so I could recommend it to friends.

Let's get this out in the open ... this is NOT a highbrow drama destined for multiple Emmy nominations.

This is a fun and campy drama/dark comedy that encourages us to look back at the peak of the COVID pandemic and laugh a little at how we handled it. There are those who denied the seriousness, those who politicized a public health crisis, those who were in a constant state of panic, and those who simply tried to help others and continue their lives as best they could. We observe the story's heroes and see the sacrifices, heartbreak and tough decisions they made for the greater good. Fun series. Well worth the time. Just go into it expecting a campy approach, not a serious drama or laugh out loud comedy.

I knew if I read dinner reviews that someone was going to call this show 'woke', it portrays a funny science fiction like story that overlays what is happening in the two world with COVID-19, that said, anyone calling it 'woke' is some goofball who doesn't understand that real viruses can be deadly even as much as killing 50-75% like Ebola which only didn't spread as easily as COVID-19, hence their ignorance that spreads to any subject matter regarding pandemics, this series is excellent, what happens IF another virus comes that is both fast spreading AND incredibly deadly?, anyway, this is FICTION, it even proposes that the virus in the show was manipulated, which should make the kooky 'anti-woke' crowd 'happy', long story short - ignore ANYONE calling something out someone 'woke', it only demonstrates their inability to accept anything outside their fox news pablum, peace!
