Psst! It’s just a TV show. Magicians don’t really cut ladies in half either.

I thought week one was a tad slow, but Laurie Holden makes up for it. I still don’t quite follow the thing where the dead have to eat flesh. If it’s any flesh, why don’t they eat each other?

I think he is referring to Walking Dead’s penchance for killing off black characters.

Wait . . . “horde?” Isn’t it a “gaggle” or a “pride of zombies?”

I'd also like it if the two series stopped killing EVERY BLACK MAN THEY INTRODUCE.
It's becoming a Star-Trek Red-Shirt cliche.
Throw me a curve. DON'T kill the black guy. Surprise me!!!

Energy is neither created or destroyed. So how can they walk without generating power. Their insiders are destroyed, so they cannot process food or any other fuel.It's a Zombie Thing. You wouldn't understand.

It’s funny. Every Zombie thing I’ve ever read always blames the Chinese. I doubt we will see that on TV. Don’t want to offend anyone.
To: BenLurkin
And yet, I worry that Fear the Walking Dead could potentially fall victim to some of the early mistakes of the original show.
Seriously?
It is a TV show. Try worrying about something significant and worthwhile.

What we have learned is that Zombies are dangerous, but people are more deadly.
The LA setting is a great place to have all the dysfunction of Big Money Hollywood, South Central gang bangers and Occupy Wall Street Anarchists froth up to face the new Zombie hoardes.
The Purge, Straight Outta Compton, Blade Runner, Mad Max all in one.
With Palm trees to boot!

The actor who plays Gabriel, the black character that viewers *want* to see die, was arrested for DUI and marijuana possession a few months ago. How cliche is THAT?

You do understand that WD is adapted from comic books rather than the New England Journal of Medicine, right? :-

Watched the first episode of Fear... and I am hooked. It was very well done for a TV show and well done by movie standards. Looking forward to tonight’s episode.
