The Walking Dead (AMC)

I also like that they put Negan in an absolutely unsurvivable situation at the end only to show him... surviving in the "next episode montage".

I love watching this show now for the absolute balls to the wall stupidity.

even before the end scene...he and five louies were elevated and uncovered when ten people started firing on them with automatic weapons.....and nobody died? I mean hell, Rick was dead set on seeing negan dead...and must have gone through three mags of ammo, the first of which had negan right out in the open

Must have been a call back to the A-Team.

What was even more ludicrous was they didn't even show anyone jumping out of the way... prob because of how stupid that would have looked.

But outside of that, Rick said he was giving them the chance to surrender and the war would be over.. but if they actually DID surrender, ummmm... how was Rick going to stop the zombie horde that his team was directing right to the compound?

So much dumb. I won't even get into Tara and what I can only believe is the writers/costume people punishing her for something writing her the worst lines and putting her in those orange sunglasses which only make her look like a bigger idiot.

and if they surrendered...couldnt negan just walk inside and promote a few other guys?
dont think he ever said,..surrender and hand negan over..

all those flashbacks/flashforwards?? of ricks dream future were just confusing....I got glimpses of dead king arragorn....

all that planning and chaos and they killed,...what,...maybe a dozen saviors?

Maybe it caught FearOfTheWalkingDeadITIS!? I hear it makes you feel like death warmed over.

I don't know if you've been watching, but FTWD this past season has been much, MUCH better than any part of the last two seasons of TWD.

I have and the bar is set so low for FTWD, it's not saying much. Improved this season? OK. Characters are still stupid and the writing is still suspect.

It's not going to win any awards, and I have certainly said "that's stupid" more than once to my TV (and my unfortunate wife), but overall it has been entertaining to me. Also the fact that they are more open to being able to kill off main characters (except maybe for the Mom—Madison) since they're not hung up on even remotely following any comic makes it more thrilling to watch.

But hey, you have formulated your opinion and you're very welcome to it.

I find it mildly entertaining because it’s in TWD universe but overall it just passes the time for me into TWD starts.

Terrible season opener. Negan is standing out in the open and Rick has that poor of aim? He’s right in front of the priest at the end and the priest doesn’t automatically shoot him? Stupid. This show is quickly losing me.

 

[puckhead]

I half expected Rick to paint his face blue and hop on a horse for the 54th rousing speech in the episode. Concerning that this is how we're opening the season.

So do they have unlimited ammo now? Because man, so much ammo was wasted in this episode. Thousands of rounds to kill maybe a dozen saviors, and most of them were killed up close, not by guns.

Do you have your poopin pants on? Cuz you're about to poop in your pants...

Oh, they opened a Walmart in Alexandria, so plenty of ammo to spray at buildings and into the air. Very fortunate timing actually.

Fear the Walking Dead garnered some new buzz toward the end of its third season when it was announced it would somehow crossover with The Walking Dead. Fans then paid extra attention to Fear's double-sized season finale for clues as to how this might happen (since we were told that a single character would connect the two shows) and came to a mostly unanimous decision about what the connector could be.

What the buzz for Fear should have been though, given that Season 3 was a notably strong outing for the series, was that it became, over this past summer, a better series overall than The Walking Dead. I mentioned this a few times in my reviews back when the season began, but Fear, with its full embracing of the desert landscape and Madison as the central character (after Cliff Curtis' Travis was killed off right out of the gate), managed to find itself within the nooks and crannies of the Broke Jaw Ranch arc and the recurring Gonzalez Dam storyline.

Utter garbage. FTW isn’t even close to TWD and that’s with the main shows problems. They should have killed Madison verses Travis. Junkie Depp and his stupidity should have gotten him killed in the first two seasons. I could go on.

By far the two most interesting characters of the entire series have been Victor Strand and Daniel Salazar. What does that say when they really are not the main cast (family)? Without those two characters the show would have been 100% unwatchable leading up to Season 3.

Thank goodness this show is back...warts and all.

And whoever wrote Negan's dialogue in that last scene with Father Who-Gives-A-F%$! should never be allowed to write for TV again.

Lol, I thought I hope you've got your shittin pants on was great

This will always be the problem now that it is people vs people. I always felt it would cheapen it a bit because everyone is a one shot headshot marksman in the show until it comes to people, now no one can aim. They have had multiple chances to easily kill negan and haven't done it because that would kill the story arc they are telling.

In reality, Negan should have been dead 3 seconds into his spiel.

You can tell a story arc without putting a character in position to be killed so easily. The fact that they made Negan this evil character who everyone agrees needs to die and when given wide open opportunities to kill him, they don’t, that’s terrible writing.

I feel that way about 99% of bad guys portrayed in story telling PERIOD. I mean 5 seconds into their monologue if the good guys had just waxed em most of the bad stuff never happens. Then again we wouldn't have much of anything story wise if it was that easy.

its always the case on everything I feel. Similar to the bad guy telling you all of his plans just for you to sneak away and now know all of his plans and save the day storylines.

Because I find that to be a hilarious line? I feel like he has said it before too.

I love the show because the characters are great, I love zombies, I love apocalypse stuff, etc.

That and I am not overly critical of things when it comes to television. If you want to talk finance, that I do for a living, I am probably over critical of everything too.
