A well written idea, with good dialogue, and a clear structure, as the episode builds very well. Uses the horror genre strongly, with great descriptions and gory action. Is a little predictable in terms of the general premise, not the most original idea. Blair and Van Buren have strong chemistry, and the episode sets up their journey together well, but they are a little stereotypical in terms of their personalities. Is an effectively told story, that works as a pilot, but needs more to stand out in terms if its characters, narrative and style.

Past Due is a polished and highly entertaining script that excels in its specific sense of time and place. Its greatest strengths are its relentless comedic pacing and its exceptionally well-written dialogue, which feels authentic and purposeful. The narrative structure is tight, effectively escalating the stakes until a satisfying and cleverly foreshadowed climax. The writer has created a confident and energetic piece of comedic writing with a clear voice and a story that successfully balances its chaotic humor with a relatable core conflict.
