Fear the Walking Dead

[Chris M]

I won't discuss last night's episode in order to not spoil anything, but another good episode!

It's a strange universe we're in now where Fear the Walking Dead is better than The Walking Dead, but here we are!

Agreed.  I got busy and finally finished LAST week's episode this morning and started last night's just a bit ago but had to stop.  It appears that FTWD doesn't drag non-relevant stories out like TWD does, at least not lately.

Last night's episode was a bit of a downer.

Last night's episode was really good.  Keith Carradine's character is very compelling.

The last two weeks have been pretty solid, if not a bit rough and hard.  I'm hoping these are leading to a great story and ultimately a great battle.

The episode with Grace giving birth did not hold my attention too much.  I did not care for it outside the cult dude attacking them.  Morgan should've killed him when he had the chance...that's going to come back to bite them in the ass.

Isn't that the Walking Dead formula?

True statement.   

Last night's episode was really good.  Lots of plans explained and the endgame for this was set in motion.  I know it's also the walking dead formula to replace one bad guy with another even worse bad guy, but I like the backstory of this one!

[Matt_Fury]

Well....last night's episode happened.


Sometimes I wonder if everyone would be doing better if they just killed Strand.

The season finale took one hell of a dark turn right off the bat!

I've really had to suspend disbelief with the cult's plan, mainly because I used to be an ICBM Combat Crew Commander.  Without getting into it, they would've had a bigger problem with the sub's reactor melting down than these nut jobs firing off the missiles.

I like the Dwight/Sherry storyline they're setting up....it will be interesting to see where it goes.  Also, the Luciana, Daniel and others heading off with the help of Althea, looks like we might get more information into the CRM.

I do have one question for anyone else watching.  Am I correct that Fear is about six years behind TWD and World Beyond in the timeline?  I don't remember them having a time jump like TWD had after Rick's "Death".

Finally watched the last two episodes and actually enjoyed them.  For the most part I've enjoyed this season far more than the last few of TWD.  Matt, I wasn't a nuke guy (but I've read enough to be familiar with them), but I was wondering the exact same thing.  Honestly, I've wondered why we haven't had a nuclear meltdown to this point anyway.

As for the timeline, I have no idea where it falls.

[Matt_Fury]

Actually, there was a nuclear meltdown two seasons ago.  How there wasn't one on the nuclear sub is beyond me!

Really?  Which episode?

[Matt_Fury]

That's where Morgan met Grace.  She was trying to keep a nuclear plant from melting down.

[Matt_Fury]

I'm two episodes in and so far, it's ok....but there are a lot of inconsistencies that as someone who has worked with nukes, I have some trouble with the suspension of disbelief.

The first who episodes are right out of Fallout 4.
