The Walking Dead: A New Frontier - Episode 4 - Thicker Than Water Critic Reviews
View All (47 total)"Thicker Than Water," other than its satisfying ending, is the season's weakest episode yet. Little that precedes the action-packed conclusion feels like it has much, if any, weight to the ongoing story I'm invested in — namely Javi's life and his relationships with Kate, Clem, and David. I'm absolutely on the hook for the season finale after that strong start and thrilling ending — I just wish everything before it hadn't felt so thin.
Thicker Than Water has tough choices, great relationship building, and shocking twists. It's the best episode this season
Storylines finally converge satisfyingly in Thicker Than Water, the penultimate chapter of the New Frontier.
The more I write about this episode, the less I like it. I actually went back and replayed it to see if the ending could be influenced by the player in any way (it can't), which certainly did Thicker than Water no favors. One disappointing episode isn't enough to write off the whole season quite yet, but I'm certainly less excited for the finale than I was this time last month.
