Fear the Walking Dead - Season 5

I watch it out of habit. I am not sure why I continue. When does it start again?

Dwight (sp) from the main show comes into it in this season.

Pretty sure they are bringing in hausfrau Carol too -- for millions of dollars. oy. She used to run the camera at commercial castings in town.

New season starts tonight 6/02.

Season 1, B-

Season 2, C

Season 3, A

Season 4, C

I'm foggy on how it ended... I just remember Alicia and that girl driving to some coast so the kid could see the ocean. I wonder if the group somehow meets up with Daniel AGAIN.

**SPOILERS FOR TONIGHT'S EPISODE:

I'm so confused. Crashing airplane with pilot Al, the group split up, heads in trees, Logan the mystery creep, Daniel on film, Morgan wanting to HELP!, whatever those documents are Al found at the end, who are those soldier looking dudes...

Where's Ofelia? Jeeze, I don't remember what happened to her.

I don't think anyone remembers anything from last season......it was just shitty and vague

I remember that crazy broad stalking the crew, a tornado, boxes with supplies along the road and a black trucker in a wheelchair. Last season so dumb.

I hate Alicia being turned into a walker Terminator and not much else.

It’s been a shit show for far too long. Pass.

It’s too hard to follow with all the breaks they take.

I'll be watching it for the beautiful Garrett Dillahunt.

R13 Me too (movement).

The made Alicia into thise nerdboy and lesbian goddess. She is a badass in a perfectly fitted leather jacket, with pretty hair and the ability to wield a broken plane propeller as a weapon against zombies. I'm sick of her.

I think the van kid trio are the offspring of the new foe Logan (Matt Frewer).

He's not a loving dad & sent them to keep track of Morgan's group.

They were told to leave the group after they went to the destination point.

The van helped them get there faster (which is what Logan really wanted).

Fans react to first episode

Cant believe this shit show is still on the air. Terrible characters and storylines right from the beginning. Remember when that dumbass opened the gates of the stadium to save his wife and did not care that he killed hundreds of other people? Or when they left their gated community and again the gate was wide open so all the other people in there would die. The son also just smeared some blood on his face and all the zombies magically stayed away. The list goes on and on. Dumbest show ever.

I really couldn't follow what the fuck was going on. Not sure if the writing and editing is really that bad or I'm just zoning out too much. Season's 1 - 3 just got better and better then they 100% 'reboot' the show and every thing seems worse. Ugh. Every time I watch a show with great writing I just think "why can't the walking dead world have these writers?". I do love Mo Collins though and glad she got a pretty high profile job.

Gave up after season 2. Any of the original cast left?I’d watch for Mo Collins r24 but only if she was playing her character, Joan Calamezzo, from Parks and Recreation.

I watched a couple of fan reaction videos after the premiere on Sunday and when Daniel was showed on Al's camera, all of the people got so excited and hyped up. I've seen this before when Daniel would pop up after being MIA in the past seasons - watchers cheer and clap. I don't understand the Daniel love - he was a good husband/father who was also a killer in some Central American group. Other than that, I can't figure out what did he do to engender this love unless they're just happy to see someone who wasn't a complete fool while dealing with the dead and the various dumb situations the other survivors got into.

I enjoyed episode 2 of season 5.

Anybody else?

I watched the first two seasons and even though I liked them I never caught up. Just saw the promo for season 5 and didn’t see anyone I recognized except the black bearded guy. Did everyone die??!!

What happened to the husband/wife, her kids and his son?

R28 The longest living survivors are Alicia, Strand, Luciana & Daniel Salazar. Everyone else is dead (remote chance Madison is still alive somehow).

They brought over Morgan (last season) & Dwight (this season) from the original TWD show.

I like John & the new additions to the show but can barely tolerate June.

I hope the WD medical curse extends to her & she is gone soon.

Fear has it's dumb moments but overall it is improving it's purpose.

You should get caught up sometime but you probably won't like everything TPTB have done with the show.

Trev's review of episode 2

I’m still all in on FTWD. It’s silly and implausible as hell... but still entertaining

I stopped watching ... how is it that Madison might be alive?

I’ve actually liked it better than the walking dead but it does suck.

R32 Many fans believe if their was no actual death scene then she could come back at a later date in a "miraculous way".

Anything is possible with these shows as Rick's hyped up "death" proves.

Nick reviews episode 2

The Governor reviews episode 2

Will Al meet Rick in his TWD films?

Dwight showed up today, still looking for Sherry. The rest of the idiots on this show are still on their "gotta help other people" mission and putting themselves in danger. So stupid.

I read that Dwight got kicked off TWD and put onto FTWD as a stipulation/penalty after the actor accidentally got a stuntman killed on TWD. That's bogus - it was an accident.

Spoiler Alert =

So three young kids are tying up the walkers in groups of 6 or more to keep others out of their territory?

If they are supposed to be the next big bad... I didn't think it could get worse than the lone old fat black lady menace.

What other people are saying about the episode...

I think that trick gunshot to save Dwight was the most ridiculous thing I've ever seen on television.

R42 Ever see the Muppet Show?

R43 No.

R42 John's gun trick is a real thing that gun experts can do.

Hard to believe I know but it's a real thing.

R45 It may be a real thing but it just seemed so out of place.

I know John used to be a cop, but has it ever been shown before he's some kind of gun genius?

He said in the latest episode that he used to do trick shots

as a performer after retiring from his cop days.

R47 Yes I know.

I mean had it ever been suggested in the many hours of previous episodes? He'd never done any kind of trick shot or mentioned this part of his life before this episode then suddenly pulls out some magic trick in the middle of a life or death situation. It was the most absurd thing they've ever done on the show. It was embarrassing.

Well I can't recall TPTB having John ever miss a shot so

I guess that implies that he is a top notch marksman.

I have a crush on Dwight.

R50 Get help.

I would let Garret Dillahunt do anything he wanted to me.

R52 That makes more sense.

Episode 4 "Skidmark"

(a.k.a. Daniel's new cat) preview

R39

Why not just fire him?

The Governor reacts to #3

No one has anything to say about the latest episode?

People like Daniel because Ruben Blades can act. Strand is boring now.

This is one of those shows that would have benefited had it been about the rise of the d=virus rather than The Walking Dead in another godforsaken part of the USA.

It’s pretty predictable. They are going to come up on another strange group and have to get their independence from it.

It's been about 3-4 episodes since the new season started and I still have no clue what they need another airplane for. To rescue some other group? Where? Who? Why? Another question: Is Dwight gone for good? That was underwhelming if was he was one and done.

Last episode they showed a helicopter like the one that took Rick away. I'm a little curious what happens with that, but I'm hating the groups "we gotta help everyone" edict. They just need to find a place and settle down.

I follow the actor who plays Dwight. His name is Austin and he's from Austin and used to skateboard when he was younger. I also have crush on him.

The Governor reviews episode 4 =

I moan & groan whenever child actors pop up on these zombie shows.

The last episode was overkill for me. No pun intended.

Whatever happened to the Matt Frewer character?

Lesbians among the dead.

I think they waited to make Al openly gay until the reactions were in with the death of Tara on TWD.

Now that it's official she's bi/lesbian, it'll give the females something to talk about other than Tara joining Denise among the dead.

I wanted to like the episode more than I did. Al really annoyed me with her usual line about "the story". I'm so tired of hearing it. Enough already.

My eyes rolled VERY hard when that rock slide came down onto the car right after Al and Helicopter Girl got out. Wow, whoever writes for this show is a hack.

Where did that rock slide come from?

Lesbians in the mist.

For R69 -- Al and this new character were driving on a mountain pass when a small rock slide happens right in front of them. They brake and get out to handle some walkers that rolled down with the rocks. They get about 10 feet away from their vehicle and another, bigger rock slide happens and a giant rock and rubble half buries the car that they just got out of.

The Governor Weighs In =

TWD Panel - Judith, Lydia, Henry Jr. & Henry the teenager

Does anyone really know what’s going on with this show? And now they’ve got all these kids all over the place. The new show is going to be about two teenagers. I’m so glad the comic ended.

Ever since AMC put Gimple in charge of this show, it has gone downhill FAST.

There used to be at least some distinction between The Walking Dead and Fear the Walking Dead, but now they're basically the same show, with different characters.

When the WD and FTWD end abruptly, you can thank Scott Gimple. He's the fucking WORST!

R75 agreed. Just think in 10 years we’ll look back at this “zombie” phase and think, “what the fuck was going on?”

And now that stupid Morgan has his stupid stick back.

Did Lennie James make an enemy in the UK, that he has to continue to play Morgan in the sad crap that FTWD is now? He used to be in decent programs in Britain, but stays in this shit. His speech at the beginning of this episode (S5E06) gave me douche chills and he's gotta realize this is trash... it must pay great or he loves the US now.

Isn't it convenient that someone in the group can fly a plane and they found a plane big enough for the whole group to fit in.

The story line of Dwight looking for Sherry is tedious bullshit. I hope a walker gets him instead, and very soon.

Are the writers for real? Beer bottle hot air balloons and radioactive zombies are what they're giving us?

R80 I know. And all those young young actors. I think I’m done.

I'm always a week behind. Started to watch the previous episode but saw that it was all about Althea. Never deleted anything so fast in my life.

R82 I liked that episode out of all of the 6 that they have released.

The kid additions to this show are making me want to quit watching the show.

I could barely stomach Nick killer Charlie. Now there are like a dozen more of her to tolerate.

They should call this version of TWD "The babysitter's club".

Hard to believe there are now more kids on the show than eye candy. Who are they trying to target with this show's cast? Stay at home mommies?

I find John & the "dead beer guy" the most attractive but only one is still with the show now.

Dwight is uglier than snot on a hot stove. Morgan, Wendell, Daniel, Strand & "Max Headroom" do nothing for me.

Also the original show had all of the community groups laughing & watching cartoons on its finale.

Now the spinoff has all of their kid group laughing & watching a cartoon on an episode.

Can't these writers come up with anything different?

Watching one show shouldn't cause flashbacks from another if they are both well written.

The Governor's reaction to the 6th episode =

Fear The Walking Dead = Live Reaction

Cheesy song thread!!!

Does anyone have any idea what's actually going on on this show anymore?

I nearly threw my television out of the window when they suddenly gained a fucking hot air balloon. Also when did any of these people become expert in aviation engineering and/or know how to even fly a plane?

R88 I sure as hell don’t have an idea.

Precisely, R88.

This show has gone completely off the rails.

I have no idea what they are doing. Now that the comic is done, I’m pretty much over the zombie shit. This show is so bad and makes no sense. I have no desire to go back and watch from the beginning to see if I can figure it out.

On another note, whoever the idiot is that keeps posting these stupid governor review and the incredibly dumb fan reactions, you can fucking knock it off. There’s nothing more lame than the ignoramus pretending to be the governor giving a review for a shitty show. The true fan reaction should show people asleep.

Yeah, where the FUCK are these working aircrafts coming from? I mean...the timelines are the same. Shouldn't Rick's group have the same implausible opportunities? They're still in Atlanta, right?

R91 I've always found the comic...underwhelming...but I picked up the last issue for the "RIP of you know who", and it continued to underwhelm.

Rick was picked up by a helicopter no-one else saw or commented upon.

This same helicopter is flying around in FTWD along with a fucking hot air balloon. They're supposed to be the same 'universe' but it appears that only works one way - no-one in Rick's World ever commented on a giant beer bottle above their heads.

They think we're stupid.

R91 The Governor's episode reactions are always insightful or funny.

Unlike yours.

Has anyone ever actually clicked on those Governor reactions? They keep being posted but no-one cares about them.

R96 No one cares about this show but you didn't point that out at all in your post.

You're an official DL failure.

^^^^^^^ Uh oh guys the twat who posts that Governor shit is ANGRY

Rick's people have been in Virginia for over 10 years. Try to keep up.

Stopped watching when they killed Madison. Sounds like I made the right choice.

They're in Virginia, now. Hunh, that does sound familiar. So FTWD must also be there if Dwight and Morgan were able to meet that group. Bringing up their location more than once would help the people who don't masturbate while watching both shows keep up R99. It's the little things...

OR not.

They finally get the plane running right as 1) the radioactive cloud hits the area 2) John Dorie drives up 3) Daniel shows up to help light up a runway for the plane to land. And isn't it convenient that Al and Strand know how to fly. So lucky.

I was praying that the goddamn plane crashed and put the show out of our misery. Show so dumb.

Althea's never ending battery life on her freaking video camera drives me nuts.

The freaking beer bottle hot air balloon?

Also, in this last episode, they *just happened* to have several miles worth of Christmas lights to create a makeshift runway?

People are already making cracks about the Comic Con posters for 5B, saying it looks like they're all jumping on trampolines.

I got distracted for a few minutes and when I looked up, that new female character (the nuclear scientist) was breaking Morgan's stick. What was that about?

He killed a radioactive walker with the pointy end.

This crap show is taking a 3 week break, starting today. I wonder what that is about. I'm used to their mid-season breaks, where they stop airing for a few months, but this break confuses me.

By the time Fear came out, I had already started burning out on the main show, and haven't even seen that in about 3 seasons.

Shows add kids when they want kids to watch. Apparently they have decided kids will help the ratings go up since the adults are starting to stop watching.

That was the worst episode ever.

The series is on life support at this point.

I had to put the latest episode on 2X so it only took 22 minutes to watch instead of the usual 44 minutes.

I can't take Al & her dumb camera any more. Morgan & Dwight are not the 2 original TWD cast members they should've brought over to a spinoff.

The only character I like (& watch for now) is John.

This show suffers from the same problems as the original = too big a cast, too few walker scenes & always a new group to cause trouble.The rest can all die in a grease fire.

Fingers crossed that most of the cast die in the season finale.

I watched every single episode of seasons one, two, and three.

Unfortunately, I haven't watched a single episode this season. I'm just not interested anymore.

I probably won't be watching Walking Dead, either.

Sad to say, but as the greatest fan of the Walking Dead since it began in 2010, I have to say that I'm over it.

I gave both of these shows many, many chances to get better, but they never did. So now I'm out.

Bump

Season finale tonight.

Does anyone care?

Morgan?

Did anyone actually watch the finale?
