Fear the Walking Dead Discussion

[littletommy]

Yeah...Wasn't he "Little Enos"?

Haha! Yep, that's him!

So the dad ended up with his old family, but his wife and new family are thrilled at that prospect.

I guess this is setting up some interesting interpersonal conflicts within the survivor group?

Last night's show was at least watchable. I'll give it another chance in two weeks. If Z Nation were on at the same time, I would not watch this show.

I'm also troubled that Paul Williams is remembered only for his bit role in "Smokey and the Bandit!" He was also on "the Love Boat," and probably half a dozen other late 1970s and early 1980s shows where dead show business careers went to rot. Hah!

Paul R. Williams. First black architect in the west. The other dude was the songwriter....and occasional vocalist that would get the dogs howling.

Could be worse, it coulda been David Brenner high school, or John Davidson high school.

 

[Alpo]

Or David Hasselhoff High School.

How about Charles Nelson Reilly High School?

.............The overlying theme to this show is: DO NOT COMMUNICATE nothing from the government, nothing from the parents

NO JOKE!! WTH! EVERY single detail needs to be shared in a group like this.

"What is going on? What did you see???"

Is Z Nation coming back?

I was expecting more from Knife Boy... I figured he would know from the internet to stab it in the brain. He must not be on the INGO.

 

[Trigger Time]

This show is going way too slow

That is the nature of prequels. Someone will eventually figure it out.

 

[eldirector]

No, and my answer may explain some questions people have. In the Walking Dead universe, the concept of a "zombie" is unknown. This world never had zombie movies, books, TV shows, or comics. The word zombie hadn't even been invented. So in this is why what we, in our world, universally know as zombies are known to members in TWD universe as a variety of different names. Come to think of it, to drive this point home, the scriptwriters might not have the cast refer to them as "walkers" in this series, as that term is unique to Rock's group.

You know, this never occurred to me. I have always assumed that TWD took place in our modern world. The whole point being that "this could really happen".

But, I never read the comics, and haven't followed the after-show. Maybe it was explained there?

11 SEP 2015!

Z Nation: Season Two is Coming ? Z Nation ? Watch | Syfy

It kind of looked like he tried to stab the principal zombie in the head, but it glanced off. I didn't get a good look, though.

Yeah, he went for the noggin and didn't get the penetration needed.

Someone needs to do some pushups...

Intact, human skulls are difficult to penetrate, especially if the angle of attack isn't normal to the point of impact. Fresh zombies would have tougher skulls than the puny resistance offered by the rotting skulls o the zombies we love from TWD!

 

[lovemachine]

So, I don't have AMC anymore. I'm pretty sure I'll end up buying the new season of walking dead they VUDU with my Roku. But is the Fear the walking dead worth buying?

Okay. I guess I have gotten too used to the TWD skulls where a good stuck shoves right through.

That and the fact that the knife he was using looked like a disposable plastic food knife. The kid needs to set his game up! Call Knife Lady and get a damn ESEE 5 or call Brad a get a Medford Pretorian! Those will penetrate!
