Alright, it's not as awful as those "covid" episodes were they fed us a few months ago, but it also lacks a certain umph that season openers have historically had, while still including a lot of the cheeseball "here's how we're re-writing the story this season" themes. At this point you kind of know what to expect from this show, however that being said given that it's the final season I'm not sure a food run is the strongest way to open things up. I find it amazing that a decade into this Apocalypse these people still haven't found ways to be self sufficient and the theme has really grown tired.
Much as the last scene should've been tense, you also know Maggie is going to be fine because they've run out of characters you give a damn about. This episode was not awful, it just repeated themes of years past and really felt like watching someone ride a bicycle up a giant hill that you knew was going to take them hours to ascend.
