they find a safe spot, it gets overrun with zombies or ruined by human stupidity. They then spend a few episodes back on the road.

I am enjoying fear the walking dead much more. Maybe because it shows how most people would really react.

usually the first ep and the last ep of each season are quite good and worth watching but almost everything in between is bad

I tried watching it - piss poor drama where everyone has issues with each other like a lame reality show - "Survivor - now with zombies!". The zombies are mostly something of an after thought at times and pretty lame. Just take a pointy stick or pitchfork to their heads, will ya and get it over with.

Strangely enough, the comic is really good at working with an ensemble cast, and the way the narrative steers people to the Prison, and the Prison largely becomes the culmination of every incidental characters' story arc is really well done, and it feels effortless when I imagine it must have taken a fair bit of pre-planning and careful plot construction to ensure that the final battle of the Prison arc is as satisfying as it is.

I never read past that though.

Same. Everything after the prison is a chore to read.

I finally stopped watching after they killed Beth because it was so goddamn stupid and such an obvious "nothing has happened this season so lets bring back this character that everyone has forgotten about and kill them and it'll be soo shocking."

Gotta love how in ftwd the military didn't bother keeping an eye on the place with hundreds of zombies and didn't see poo poo until they were ten feet from the gate

gently caress the guy who let them all out is he actually supposed to be a sympathetic character?

rick is supposed to be missing a hand and carl needs to have brain damage from being shot in the face and the baby supposed to be shot in mommas tummy. Also the asian guy is supposed to die (hopefully during this season) by my favorite walking dead character of all time, Lucille.

I thought it was going to be cool for a couple episodes when it started following the Governor around. But nope it went right back to same ol' poo poo. They do that a lot on the show I noticed. They'll introducing a character or concept that might be cool or interesting then poo poo all over it and render it pointless as soon as humanly possible.

Show makes me mad and I don't know why I watched all of it Netflix, but I hate myself for it.

And the guy that played the Governor was probably the best actor on the show and a way better Rick than Rick.

should we simply reinforce the walls holding back this division's worth of zombies or should we do a cockamamie harebrained scheme wherein we trust the zombies to follow a road in a well organized column? the answer is the latter and if you disagree i will shoot ye
