Nope, this was the single moment that ruined the show for me and I’ll tell you why.

Carls reaction wasn’t even shock. It was just nothing. Detached is a great word for just.. nothing. So you have the son watching his mom die and zero reaction happens.

Then the dad freaks out but just like the meme I found this reaction so stupid. It’s bad acting. It’s bad writing.

Then what really killed it for me is that the dad goes into a long sad boi moment, meanwhile Carl becomes this new bad boy character that his character earned exactly zero build up for. So much so that he takes away from his dad. His character goes from weak boy who needs protection to this like rough and tough kid who tells his dad to “man up.” It’s hilarious. It needed way more development and it was clear they wanted a destination for the characters but couldn’t transition properly.
