    The main feeling you get from fear's new season is that the mainline Dead show has swallowed Fear, like a snake eating its own tail or a zombie biting its own foot. [6/13 Apr 2018, p.76]

    Based on the first two hours, the program does feel somewhat invigorated by the new blood. James is customarily good -- and pained -- striking out on his own, and has nice chemistry with Dillahunt, a cowboy type who provides a more expressive counterweight to his clenched persona. That's grading on a curve, however, for a series whose initial conceit and execution -- chronicling the outbreak on the opposite coast -- has been most notable for its general lifelessness.

    Under the direction of Gimple this once exciting TWD spin off has officially ended.

    Season 4 embodies everything that was wrong with the original show.

    While FTWD throughout season 1-3 was far away from being a perfect show it offered a more brutal and realistic perspective on the zombie apocalypse. Each season proceeding season 4, provided a significant amount of psychological horror, harsh decision-making and true immersion. Season 4 took everything that made FTWD so good and turned it into a bland and boring viewing experience.

    The most astonishing decision made by Gimple was to make Morgan, arguably the weakest link in the original show, the protagonist of the show while downgrading or killing off all the other main characters that the show was based on and the viewers grew attached to.

    Morgan is by far the most boring, uninspiring and repetitive character in the AMC Universe. Since the pilot episode, FTWD has always been about survival and survival by whatever means necessary. The introduction of the Morgan character with his bipolar ethical concerns and his continuous annoying whining provides the viewer base with the complete opposite of what they want from the show.

    A lot of people are mad at the direction the show has taken and a lot of people are going to drop the show. Management at AMC should have kept the original direction and fired Gimple. This is the truth.

What the fuggity **** have they done to this show? I can't think of any other show that has hit rock bottom so suddenly. I can't think of any other reason for it becoming so horrible other than the writers/producers purposefully trying to ruin it. WHY!? **** you Scott Gimple. Seriously. **** you. Full Review »
