Fear the Walking Dead (AMC)

[puckhead]

how many episodes in did you get? Did you get to the one with the weird cult family that they got off the boat and met? that one was cool and early in the season

Sounds familiar. It's been a while.

Season three of Fear the Walking Dead will be the last for current show runner Dave Erikson in his current role. Erikson, who worked closely with Robert Kirkman to develop the spin-off, will stay on Fear an Executive Producer as per his deal with AMC. His new focus will be developing new shows for AMC and its subsidiaries.

That usually is code for instead of firing you we are going to move you onto something else IMO.

FWIW, season 2 was FAR better than season one and it got better in the second half of the season.

That is not saying much. That might be one of the lowest bars on TV. This show still is tops IMO for writing the dumbest character decisions on all of TV.

my buddy was arguing to me this weekend that fear is better because it doesn't have a framework it has to follow.

I told him he is as dumb as his short shorts he wears for paddleboarding.

back on June 4th

There are about 20 sundays between then and when the walking dead comes back so I assume they have a much shorter midseason break or none at all.

Walking dead is good sometimes... sometimes..eh..not so much. I think it's overrated. I almost can't stand any of the characters... Half the time they are moody... The other half the time they have no personality whatsoever. They are always in the woods...can they ever make it out of the south??

They are in Virginia right now

But this thread is fear the walking dead who are on the US/Mex border.

Anyone else watch the season premier?

Spoiler

I hope that the events that happened do not cause Madison, Alicia(?) and the other women to rise up and become leaders. I'm kind of tired of shows like this that portray men as weak at the mercy of women rising to the top in crisis situations. It's getting stale.

 

[Covert Rain]

There should be a new rule. Kill off the most annoying characters first. At least the show would become more watchable from that perspective over time.

Spoiler

it was painfully obvious that either Travis, Nick,..or whats her name was gonna die in this episode. But IMO they picked the wrong one to kill off..mommy dearest should have bit it...I also noticed the writers seem to be flipping the personalities of Nick and his mom just a bit...though his sketchiness could be explained by recent events I guess.....shootout, capture, ol'lady nearly dead...all that

I did. pretty decent overall.

 

[Covert Rain]

This felt like a reboot of sorts. The problem is they left the most annoying characters in the show and as far as I can tell still the same writers. It's race between what will annoy you more...the continued horrible writing or the characters annoying the crap out of you.

 

[Bada0Bing]

Finally a decent episode. I would have given up long ago if my son wasn't such a fan.

 

[BigRedRage]

Just caught up, season premier was awesome. The rats and zombie pulling him though the wall was great and Travis brawling in the pit finally made him a legit, front runner candidate...

Well, for 5 minutes.

The ranch was interesting and having Daniel show up is huge. The dam episode was A+ tv if you ask me.

I am pleasantly surprised but it may partially be because I binged 3 episodes tonight and didn't have to watch one at a time

Last week's episode around Daniel Salazar was, by far, the best episode of the series. I finally found a character to root for.

Still haven't watched last night's episode.

Ok, more than a year ago I tried to make it through the very first episode but couldn't. Didn't connect with any of the characters and the whole thing just felt blah. However lately I keep reading that this show has "surpassed the Walking Dead." That's not much of a shock since TWD seems to be going the Dexter route ATM. I think a lot of us are just watching it because we've invested so much time and need to see how it plays out.

Has it really gotten better?

 

[Covert Rain]

Not really. I agree with the above . The only character I remotely care about is Daniels character. What does that say?

so far, this season is superior to what they have done before but it remains to be seen if they can keep it up. They killed off one rotten character, but IMO, they killed off the wrong one. They should have killed off Madison instead...or even.."In addition too"

 

[Covert Rain]

I am sure Daniel is not long for this world. My guess is any character remotely worth watching will be killed off and the most annoying continue to live. The writers seems to have everything backwards...for example....bad writing verses good.

I liked him a lot and was angry they killed him, glad he didnt die. The new episode has a lot of him too.

it has not surpassed TWD< no way.

However, this season has been GREAT.

I liked travis too.

I want to like alicia but she just made another mistake that is going to haunt everyone.

I sometimes like the junkie kid, more often than not I do.

I do agree that they seem to kill favorites and keep annoyances. They are trying too hard to make madison the star. Travis was the star.

 

[BigRedRage]

So, the newest episode:

Alicia and the dude, you dont know him yet, that is going to backfire just like on the yacht IMO. Bad move.

Sucks junkies girlfriend left, another strong character leaves.

Didn't Daniel's daughter get picked up by a militia in season 2? I imagine she pops up soon. The end at the hotel was pretty bad ass, strand can screw himself. Very glad Daniel is back for now, he is great in every scene. I hope he sticks around.

The one guys talks trash how madison shouldnt come because she is weak. Then she proceeds to almost die and is only saved because of that guy. Then that guy says "I was wrong about you"....what? I thought he was going to give her more poo that he was right and she almost died. Wtf were you wrong about?

 

[BigRedRage]

We all know that when the show starts up in August they will cut to Daniel standing in the fire that he started. That fire will cause the three dragon eggs to hatch and the dragons will imprint on him. From then on he will be known to all survivors as the "Vato of Dragons". He will then purge Mexico of all Walkers using dragon fire but for some strange reason he will never be able to leave Mexico.

Yeah, that was ridiculous.

 

[BigRedRage]

Yeah, that was ridiculous.

they try really hard to make her the star, they need to give up on that, let her die so the others can rise. they have star potential, she doesnt.
