The famous gore and bloodshed “The Walking Dead” is known for is on full display during this episode. As the episode progresses, the time staying alive in the loop greatly lengthens, resulting in a wide variety of loop-resetting main character deaths ranging from zombie attacks, explosions, and suicidal neck bites. Each “loop” is shown throughout an appropriate amount of runtime, never lingering too long in the repetitiveness of the situation. That’s not to say “Blair/Gina” is the most compelling zombie survival ever told, but it makes strides to evolve its characters and mess around with the warped logistics of its time loop concept. From its beginning, “Blair/Gina” makes it very clear that this is an experimental take on the tone and world of “The Walking Dead.” It’s the kind of storytelling that an anthology like “Tales” should be encouraging as it enables creatives to use the tried and true toys of “The Walking Dead” sandbox in a refreshing, unique way. The episode doesn’t waste time before introducing the wild time loop, evading a disorienting tonal shift such as the one that occurred in the prior episode’s third act. They are doomed to repeat the beginning of the apocalypse over and over again. As the fire engulfs them in a screaming blaze, they suddenly awaken at the end of the work day with full knowledge of the events that transpired in their past experience. Each time Blair and Gina encounter the chaotic start of the apocalypse, they soon perish in the blazing fire of an exploding oil tanker. While last week’s episode attempted to tonally stay within the reins of “The Walking Dead’s” established gritty world, “Blair/Gina” takes a big swing by incorporating not only dark comedy but a twisted time loop a la Happy Death Day. Continuing the trend of double-character narratives from last week, “Blair/Gina” follows insurance company boss Blair ( Parker Posey) and receptionist Gina ( Jillian Bell) as they encounter the beginnings of the walker infestation in Atlanta.
