"It will focus on a completely new cast in a new location.... AMC announced its intention to create a companion show to The Walking Dead, the network has confirmed that the series is officially happening...The still-untitled series was previously rumored to be a prequel that would focus on the events that led up to the main series' apocalyptic storyline. But neither the network nor the producers have hinted at what the show will be about other than the fact that it won't technically be a "spinoff" since it won't feature characters from The Walking Dead TV series.

He is a great actor playing an intriguing character. I would have loved to have seen his descent following the death of his son. I think it was a natural juxtaposition between him and Rick. Both had lost their wives and had young sons. I think Rick saw what he could become if he lost Carl.
I just like my fiction to not be so brainless.
As for “lightening up”, I’m not the one who jumped to questioning a posters FR credentials over the sin of wanting smarter characters/writing.
I was under the impression that a TWD thread was to discuss the goods and bads of TWD, and my “lighten up” post was in response to Hot Tobasco demanding that I “go away” because I pointed out my issue with too much brainlessness in that fiction.
I like my fellow FReepers to be not so brainless. Too bad we don’t get what we want, eh?!
I hate ALL of you.
Speaking of Eugene, did you see him in the train car with the others? I didn’t, but maybe he was hiding in the corner or something.
I didn't either....maybe the termites hauled his butt over to the barbershop to give him a haircut?....LOL!
I've got to watch that episode again, there were too many clues that I missed during all the action.......

Your posting history is sporadic at the best and if you are such an afficionado of TWD, why did you chose this tread to begin your commentary?
The pinged TWD threads, much like the Religion threads are meant for the people who follow them. As such, trolls such as you who have no interest in the genre and do not even follow TWD are not welcome here especially since your only objective was to drop in, dump your load of crap and proceed to hijack the thread with your unappreciated comments.
Since you obviously can’t respect the nature of this thread, you don’t belong here and would do all of us TWD followers a favor if you would just go away.
Thank you for your anticipated cooperation…………

Hmmm, since I have been a member of FR since the August of 2004 with a total of 55 threads and 19,356 posts, I'm going to presume you misspoke when you said I had left FR, and that by 'leaving' and a 'sporadic posting history' you meant just to the TWD threads. That interpretation at least makes you appear believable and sane.
So let's look at that posting history. All I can say is, Oh My God, I can't believe you would waste the time it must have taken you to catalog those. I'm just going to take your word for it, as there is no way that I am going to go back to August of 2012 and start counting my posts. So that is what, 8 posts? Frankly, I'm astounded that I posted that many. It is a show that interests me, but like I say, its a love-hate relationship and I tend to binge watch it, as time permits.
But let's move on, because I think you have a point to make that links the number of posts I've made to the worthiness of my comments. Cue the point...
Your posting history is sporadic at the best and if you are such an afficionado of TWD, why did you chose this tread to begin your commentary?
I never stated I was an aficionado, I stated that I have watched every episode, and have some very strong critics on what would make the writing and characters better. I presume I waited to comment on this thread because:
1. The subject of this thread interested me, in that it dealt with possible new story lines (aka a chance to introduce better writing).
2. Most of my interest is on nonfiction, so those threads capture most of my attention and posts.
3. Like I said, I binge watch, so if I'm way behind, I don't generally read TWD threads, because of that whole spoiler issue.
4. I never knew that there was an algorithm that connected number of comments to value of comments. Have you shared your algorithm with Nancy Grace?

What? You unappreciate me? Now that hurts.
Look friend. I'm seriously not going to waste my time going back and reading all of my TWD comments, but I'm willing to bet that I've stated pretty much the same thing every time, i.e. "Interesting show, but the lack of development kills me. Characters don't learn and I wish they would graduate them to the next level of survival." My opinion has obviously got you in a tizzy, and its unfortunate that you personalize such things, but I did not insult you and your sensitivity issues aren't my problem.
Unlike a religion thread, this is about a fictional TV show that is of varying levels of interest to varying people. I did not post a disparaging comment about people who watch TWD. What I posted is called a critic. Critics are what people offer concerning books, movies, plays, performances, etc. and they can be good or bad. I would not have bothered to offer a critic on a show that I do not watch or care to get better. Dedicated threads on TVs and movies tend to include critics, so watch yourself out there.

If you feel that my comments crossed the line into TWD sacrilege and defiled your pristine thread, then you have but one alternative. You must hit that "Report Abuse" button and have the moderator drag me off to the FR woodshed.
Barring that, I'm going to just keep posting whatever I feel like saying about TWD, as I've now seen every episode and I'm pretty sure my critics are spot on. From the other comments, several other posters agree with me. We don't have the secret TWD decoder ring, but I think that means that you aren't speaking for all of the TWD followers, and might be overplaying your importance just a tad with the whole banishment command.
Now you be off, and don't let a walker bite you in the butt.
Makeup, pre-Episode 307.
"ep- 307 "I’m by the steps to help catch stunt guy's head if needed, then feast on the fake intestines/ bbq they used for the scene." 
"ep 307 - this was right before John fell out the door and I was walking to the steps."
She (Sarah) says she gets shot in the head in "Episode 403 ("when the dead come knocking and isolation"), and will send screen shots after she finds them.
Here's what she looks like in real life:
She's primarily a stunt woman, but does some acting - you can read her stunt bio and her fairly extensive TV and movie bio at IMBD IMBD does include her stand-in jobs. She's been a stand-in for Betty White and others.
Not all roles, such as mass Walkers on TWD are credited in TWD episodes.

Yep, I saw his chubby cheeks looming out of the darkness...he was in the back.
That is seriously cool right there, I don’t care who you are!
Scoutmaster, try to post her screenshots if you can (when she gets them).
Eugene is on the train car with the others, but he's in the back, so he's kind of hard to see. If you watch the last 30 seconds again, you can see him behind Bob and Glenn.
Very cool!
As a result, she's promised to go through her stuff from The Walking Dead, but she doesn't view being a Walker along with hundreds of other among her notable work.
Received a text from her mom that Sarah was in Episode 307 (When the Dead Come Knocking) and Episode 403 (Isolation). Sarah says she takes the bullet to the head in Episode 403.
She’s a cutie. Because you are a friend, I will refrain from further comment.
You’re a true pal, Laz.
