Fear the Walking Dead, Season 2

[Jangler]

I've been bored with this show from the beginning and after reading the new posts I was sure I'd be done with it, but this was the best episode imo.

Heard a rumor a while back that at some point the 2 shows will cross paths... But TWD is like what? 3yrs ahead? How old is Judith?

 

i get the ruined thing, not showing who got whacked is a spit in the face... But! Considering the arcs characters have taken over the past 7 seasons has me wanting more.... Rick wont be down with going from lead dog to bitch? Do Carol & Morgan get back with them? Is Negan more twisted than the Gov'ner? How much? 

But awesome possibilities/expectations lead to big disappointments... And these shows have done their fare share of disappointing... We'll see, they do a good job of giving us excellent episodes to break up the doodoo ones....

 

Technically it's like 514 days since the outbreak...... so like a year and a third?

Google maps says it would take 39 days to walk from Winston Salem to San Francisco...

So call it 45 from Tijuana to Alexandria, VA... all without a known food or water source thru desert the first two to three weeks, fighting zombies and possibly other humans... yeah, I'm saying that's gonna be a bit tough.

So, a zombie can fall 10 stories and not break any bones?

I think it's been confirmed that the shows will not be crossing, ever. It's also been confirmed who got the Lucille'd since credits for the next season of TWD are out.

But NOBODY is talking about the pharmacist's bite. He was bitten. The wound healed. He's still alive. Where are they going with this? The hotel scene felt too forced. I'm just, seriously, not interested in obvious scenes that take a half hour to resolve.

They're certainly teasing it in the plot like the guy got bit and survived, but maybe that's an old scar and he lied about it... the whole "religious group/cult" feel of that is a weird situation...  just something else for Nick to figure out I suppose.

The pharmacist comes across as a con artist type to me... if I had to bet, I'd say that's where they're going with it.

 

I like the new girl tho, I hope she stays, she's smart, badass and hot af.

 

I still think they're having season 2 plot "where do we go" issues...

Could he have gotten bit and just cut out the bit area?  It worked for Hershal, although the location of the bite is obviously tougher to do that.

I also always ondered why people die from bites.  We all already have the disease and in most cases it only takes effect once we die.  Why is it that the disease kills you when you are bit but it does not kill everybody else that has it?  Is it possible that whatever kills you when you are bit is different than whatever turns you after death, and the pharmacist figured out a way to remedy a bite?

In reality he probably just faked it though.

I think it's the fever after a bite that kills them.

I finally got caught up after too much life!

The Pharmacist is a strange character.  I like the idea of their little safety net, but how much longer will it last?  The whole bit thing is really weird.  I mean, we've been around TWD zombie-verse for 6 years.  We have a pretty good idea of how this works.  The only thing I can think as to how he could survive is extreme luck along with cutting out and cauterizing the wound to kill the zombie disease. 

What's interesting is that with the trip through Mexico, we're seeing a very different response to the apocalypse versus what we saw in the "American" TWD.

I can't get over Strand and Madison getting drunk in a hotel bar during a zombie apocalypse...WTF guys!  

I completely understand why people aren't happy with this show versus TWD.  I wish they would pick a show lead, and let them drive the narrative.  The family as the lead is weak.  We need a strong narrative because the characters, by themselves, aren't interesting enough to drive the story.

That being said, I'm curious to see how they escape the hotel, and how Nick is going to destroy the Colony.  You know it's bound to happen!

They were falling that far, and their bones are brittle enough that you can stab through skull, but then they just get up and walk away?

Just watched the finale last night, seemed a bit forced... Madison & Co right 2 steps behind finding Nick & Crew, etc.. They were trying too hard at a cliffhanger ending, both crews leaving their respective groups, Nick & them getting attacked, possibly the same as the guy who attacked Olivia. She had just crossed the border, Nick & them had just got to the border, could be the same dudes... How did the Mexican gang get completely overrun by the walkers Alejandro let in? Youd think someone wouldve been smart enough to find shelter, there was plenty around.... 

 

Before this show started, when it was just TWD, I wanted more. Now that theyve given us another show, the market is kind of oversaturated, Id be happy with just the original... We'll see if TWD can get us back to awesomeness....
