I haven’t watched the second half yet.

Still think this show is better than WD currently(also not caught up on that)

But I really think Nick and Madison were essential to make this a watchable guilty pleasure. Nothing they could do about Nick. But that shoulda been a clear sign to keep her. And I don’t even really like her character.

It was weird the way they killed her off. There must be some serious behind the scenes story there. Having an actor film their death scene WITHOUT TELLING THEM IT IS THEIR DEATH SCENE. Man, that’s brutal.

No matter what the suits say now, the door is still open. Remember, No one's gone until they're gone. ;)

only person i realize has no choice. but to survive is Morgan & Alicia at this point. Morgan has no choice but to survive but to connect the two shows.
Alicia has to survive since she is literally the only one from the original fear show.

Assuming at some point they merge the shows to milk a couple more seasons. The rest during the fear show may make it,but who cares to this point. I actually like some of the characters more right now than the original cast which I cared less if they died.

I like the character contrast in John/Strand, Alicia/Charley, and Morgan/everyone else.
It would be neat to see them in Virginia and to have a whole new dynamic.

That being said, the situational writing has been poor.
2/2 on hitting cars from 20 stories up?
And does every car in the vicinity have a working car alarm?

They could have engineered a screen door to cover the elevator opening, preventing zombies from getting in and simply using metal objects to hit them in the skull through the screen.

And I guess they don't have the budget, but when zombies herd together, why isn't anyone using fire? Zombie clothing must be dried out and once lit, they shouldn't make it very far before keeling over. They will also run into each other and the herd will be ablaze while you make your escape. They don't have a home, so where is the risk in burning down something important?

At the very least, get these characters to TWD and hopefully put them in better situations with zombies and humans out to get them. [crosses fingers]

So I dont think Jimbo should be a zombie
Fall 10 stories onto a car I am pretty sure there was head trauma in that fall, so he wouldnt have turned.

Haha, you stopped me. I was just about to do an entire diatribe about this. :pound::pound::pound:

I like do how Morgan made a huge show of swinging a walker to get to the car that was 20-30 feet away, and hit the car perfectly. Then, later, Jimbo dropped directly down to the waiting car.

Why didn’t Morgan go after the easier car?

Well that's disappointing that they aren't going to Virginia. That whole ethanol truck thing was ridiculous. Pretty sure I don't need to point out why as it was so painfully obvious. I thought Al inadvertently solved the problem but apparently not. Should have just cut that part out and just had Mo-mo save the day with Jimbo's beer which was kind of cool.

No major deaths in the back half of the season.

Well we knew they couldnt get to virginia. So I kinda like the part where they build their own base of operations.

i always thought it had to be clear alcohol like vodka to help cure antifreeze poisoning. How much beer would one actually need? why did it take so long to find the 1 beer for Polar bear but Morgan finds a whole truck. I remember drinking my first beer and it wasnt so easy as Charlie just slamming them.

warm? no. piss? PBR so kinda
LOL

When I lived in Michigan, we would go a pool hall that had $1 PBR pitchers. We would order a “pitcher of piss” and the bartender knew what we wanted. It was nasty, but we thought it was funny to be drinking $1 pitchers, so we did it.

When I lived in Michigan I worked at this bar where we would piss in a pitcher and sell it for a $1. People thought they were ordering PBR. We thought it was funny.
