It's a funny, creepy, touching thriller that had me laughing one second and peeking between my fingers the next.

It's an exhilarating take on a couple of familiar genres, balancing horror, humor, and heart.

The six-episode series mixes this type of sharp -humor and dialogue with gory scenes and tense horror.

The storytelling in The Fades can be convoluted and creaky, but there's some wit to the writing, and the horror and battle scenes are legitimately frightening, by TV standards.

Given how much potential this premise contains, I dearly wish The Fades could decide what it wants to do.

After three installments, The Fades' existential components remain somewhat muddled, with the portentous warnings offering small compensation or incentive to hang around long enough to see whether mankind survives.
