We Are the End of the World Ratings & Reviews
SFX Magazine
Alex Avard
"We are the End of the World" is a slow-burn character study that does little to move forward events despite offering interesting insights into Alpha and Beta's history.
Decider
Alexander Zalben
While the Season 10 premiere of The Walking Dead set up the new status quo for our zombie apocalypse heroes, the second episode, "We Are The End of the World," flipped the script and focused squarely on the villains.
Pajiba
Brian Richards
Another solid and well-made episode, in which we not only learn more about the Whisperers, but we learn more about Alpha and Beta.
IGN Movies
Matt Fowler
"We Are the End of the World" wasn't wholly bad, but the Whisperers aren't the type of community that can carry an entire episode.
Uproxx
Dustin Rowles
Gamma is a character invented for the TV show, and an interesting wrinkle in the storyline.
Entertainment Weekly
Nick Romano
The episode, "We Are the End of the World," isn't all about Beta's origin. Motherhood and a different kind of nature vs. nurture are more prevalent ideas, but early Beta offers deeper insights into present-day Alpha.
Syfy Wire
Alyse Wax
Perhaps the most valuable bit of information we get in this episode is we find out about Alpha's philosophy.
New York Magazine/Vulture
Richard Rys
Here's something I never thought we'd see: Alpha and Beta's meet-cute, complete with flirting in the hallway of a psychiatric hospital and Alpha playing coy when asked about her name.
CBR
Cynthia Vinney
The second episode of The Walking Dead's 10th season focused entirely on the Whisperers, and more specifically Alpha and Beta... And it's a meet-cute fit for the zombie apocalypse.
Geek Girl Authority
Noetta Harjo
Samantha Morton gives a brilliant performance. She just gets better with every episode. No matter how far she's pushed, she always comes back to her mission. I like that. And she's creepy as hell!
io9.com
Rob Bricken
All in all, it was a surprisingly thoughtful Walking Dead, but also a very special one, because it gives us something we arguably haven't seen since the Governor in season three-a conflicted primary antagonist.
Lyles' Movie Files
Jeffrey Lyles
We Are the End of the World was a solid origin episode that served a dual purpose of the formation of The Whisperers leadership core and establishing the mindset of a Whisperer who moves up the ranks.
Father Son Holy Gore
C.H. Newell
A dark episode. Perfect story for The Walking Dead to tell right now at this juncture. We had to start seeing the origins of the Whisperers. Perfectly ends at the moment from the first episode, where Alpha looks up to see Carol across the divide.
Forbes
Erik Kain
All told, this was a very strong character-building episode for our new villains, at once deepening our understanding of Alpha and Beta, and introducing a third twisted, awful Whisperer leader to the mix.
Den of Geek
Ron Hogan
With the Whisperers, Angela Kang and company is doing a solid job of turning what would otherwise be a group of masked psychopaths into a Shakespearian drama company of back-stabbers and schemers.
TV Fanatic
Paul Dailly
The Walking Dead Season 10 Episode 2 took viewers on a trip to the past to reveal the origins of Alpha and Beta, and while these flashback-heavy installments are generally not that great, "We Are the End of the World" was a valiant effort.
Tell-Tale TV
Kevin Lever
It's a bold move to jump into more Alpha and Beta origins so early into the season, but it proves rather integral: it's not a snapshot of earlier times, instead becoming a window into how both think, something incredibly important for what comes next.
AV Club
Alex McLevy
"We Are The End Of The World" spends at least as much time on the more engaging current events as it does the past, which also helps it supersede being just another unnecessary flashback episode.
indieWire
Jeff Stone
Those hoping for the season to gain a little more narrative momentum after last week's pokey premiere will be disappointed, but good news for those who wanted to see that satellite re-enter the atmosphere again!
