Fear of Walking Dead Season 1

[GHook93]

10.1 mil tuned in for the pilot. Wow, no wonder the show got a second season prior to the pilot even airing.

I wonder if there will be a drop off. My guess is the show picks up and the boring opener is forgotten!

Personally, I think there will be a drop off. It isn't going to make it. People want Rick Grimes and Crew, not how it all started. Especially with a Junky Depp character and an extremely poor actress like his mother. Meh. I was just not impressed. And according to twitter...nobody else was too impressed either. Most will give it a chance but from what I saw..most won't even bother due to the poor characters and bad acting.

There was so much hype that it was hard to live up to. Did it live up to it? Not even close. It was a snoozer! No compelling characters (however, so gave potential). Don't gets wrong it wasn't bad, it was just extremely boring. It definitely was 't as exciting as the first episode of the Walking Dead.

That said, I am still going to tune in for episode 2 and probably be as addicted to this show as I am to the Walking Dead.

For me, it is not the zombies. It's the HUMANITY...or lack thereof, of the survivors dealing in a world that has nothing like it used to have. Kinda like Book Of Eli....people forming bands and groups, caveman style and all the bullshit that goes with that concept of "us vs them" sorta thing.

Personally, I wonder why they don't find a damn island big enough to grow crops and find any animals to breed for meat that haven't been eaten by "zombies".

Which is why I think FEAR The Walking Dead won't make the cut. It's a bad storyline, bad acting and focuses on losing cell phones, tv, movies, skateboarding, work, and day to day life.

Rick Grimes and Co have been there done that. The grabbing of attention of viewers is HOW that group came to be what they are...and how they deal with who they turned in to and the evolving to....whatever.

It depends I say it still does well over the next 2 episodes, if it doesn't impress by then people will flee. However, critics who have been privy to the entire season have given it rave reviews!

I didn't like the druggy kid character, for whatever reason it made it harder to watch. Like others stated, I'll give it time to get further into the story and action, since set ups can be like this. Maybe that character won't last to far in, I know I'd give him a nice old mid 70's FLYERS Hockey style hip check into a pile of zombies.
What happened to Z-Nation is that coming back this season?

Yep. According to IMDB, it's scheduled to start back up Sept. 11.
BTW - that was one show that I really didn't care all that much for until about the third episode. Glad I gave it a chance.

 

[HaShev]

Cool thanks !

That show is more fun then a fenced yard full of viagra zombies. *L* Loved that episode.

Yeah, that was a good one. I think the show got better when it seemed like they stopped taking themselves seriously and had fun making the episodes.
My favorite was the one where the group led a charge of zombies by playing "Ride of the Valkyries" from a truck... still can't hear that song without seeing that scene.

I wasn't a fan of his character either. I thought the characters were the weakest part of the show so far.

Yeah, after the first episode, I don't really like any of the characters much. Of course I've only seen the one episode. Lol. In fact, I wasn't paying much attention to it and got a character on that show mixed up with a character from another show I was watching earlier in the evening. I'll watch the next one and see how it goes.

I will be there for the entire season. The critics are usually not wrong and the privy to the entire season gave it ugh marks.

Only character I totally liked was the pimpled kid that knew something was up..hence taking the knife to school.
Can't stand the mom or the daughter. Junky Depp is so-so, but i wouldn't hurt me if he was off'd real soon. Mexi Dad is a great actor, but doesn't seem to be "in" to this gig at all. Sloppy, poor acting with most of them and no characters to "root for", so far.
All in all....snoozefest.

That pimply knife kid probably watched the first season of TWD. lol
The rest of the characters were boring to me....but any characters would be blah after Rick, Carol, Michone, Daryl ect...

 

[Gracie]

Agree, featherlite. This knock off will NOT get to where TWD is. Ain't gonna happen.

 

[hortysir]

Finally stayed up for the whole pilot.
Not too bad really.
Seems like it'll speed up pretty quick

Its because zombies are dead, dumb, and relentless. lol
Plus anyone can and does become a zombie.

Im glad they went into more character detail before they hit survival mode. WIsh WD 1 would have done that. RIck and Loris marraige , carol and her daughter, all of them. Merle(?) was pretty complicated...a good hearted psycho

I don't know. Zombies that that scary appeal that they will swarm and eat you alive. That you can be turned into one and that they will never give up, they are running on pure instinct.
