AMC's "Fear The Walking Dead" (Season 8)

[i007spectre]

Good at least Dwight will have something to do on Fear since my least favorite character Daryl stole his role on TWD. Wonder if he will have found Sherry.

I would like a dial down on Morgan, though I don't believe he and Dwight interacted much in TWD Season 8. Would be interesting to see their dynamic.

Agreed, having killed TWO other originals, Strand is the only interesting character of them. I'm just not into Alicia. Didn't help Strand was left in the background either.

Troy survived? Didn't Madison hit Troy in the head with a hammer if I remember correctly he looked pretty dead to me I guess he got out before they blew up the dam well it least we are getting some interesting characters back sucks that the actor who played Nick left the show they were interesting as a duo.

Going to suck for the sis lol.

One other thing I also remember wasn't that the episode FTWD was testing the use of the F-word Madison used it once cracks me up that they did it once but FTWD and TWD two shows for some reason AMC will not allow the F-Word while Better Call Saul used the word plenty of times without any bleeping. Imagine if TWD was allowed to use the F-Word we would have had the Negan we all expected but after Negan season profanity was least of a problem the violence and gore got cut down because of whiny little *****y parents.

Season 3 of FearTWD had two uses of "f*ck." However, Season 4 did not.

In regards to The Walking Dead, the blu-ray edition of Season 4 and Season 5 feature the use of "f*ck." One bring Rick Grimes' line "they're f*cking with the wrong people" in Season 4 finale the other being Daryl saying "f*ck the way it was" in Season 5.

The Walking Dead Season 6 actually has an incredible 24 F-bombs (one from Rick telling Daryl "f*ck that guy" when they first encounter Jesus and the other being a glorious f*ck filled monologue from Negan in the season finale).

Most recently, TWD Season 9 actually aired their first televised broadcast of a F-bomb when Daryl told Rick "you sure as f*ck wouldn't have found any of us."

Controversially enough, it is publicly known that during production on TWD Season 7 and Season 8, Greg Nicotero has referred to filming "F takes" where Jeffrey Dean Morgan goes full Negan using 'f*ck' left and right in his scenes. Fans expected these alternate takes to be included on the blu-ray releases but to many frustrations have been seemingly left out.

Lame other networks like USA and FX use profanities through out the season I really just can't understand what they are scared of other than kids watching the show which they should not be and because of that graphic violence between human vs humans or zombies vs humans have really been cut down. And I don't get what the creators wanted to do with Negan character when he was suppose to be the one to top all other characters that were power hunger really sad that TWD is on AMC when it would be much better on Premium than again look how Cinemax treated Outcast what a shame for such a great show.

For one, it airs at 9pm. Shows on FX that have excessive use of 'f*ck' air at 10pm. Which allows for more mature content.

Second are AMCs advertisers. The Walking Dead may be the most popular TV show on basic cable and many companies pay large amounts for airtime during the series.

Sure, it may be violent with its zombie gore (which has been relatively toned down since it's Season 8 premiere), but I'm guessing American companies wouldn't want to associate for a show which uses an over amount of inappropriate language.

Be glad The Walking Dead is on AMC. When shopping for networks, NBC were interested wanting to adapt it as a 'procedural drama,' and HBO turned down the series as they found it "too violent." Ironic considering a year later they picked up Game of Thrones.

I can't believe that the blu ray for season 4 is not available in store at walmart. I always found the other seasons on blu ray there.

[jayman3]

Eh....still reeks of Season 4 level of meh. Only exciting parts were Daniel and Dwight appearing. Fear is really taking the 'zombie western' theme to new heights.

Aside from Dwight, that trailer did nothing for me.

Looking good Billy Ray.

The problem is that the trailer really doesn't give you any idea of what the season is about. But I do have to say...the plane flying around is intriguing.

[ChadFL]

This... still looks like a mess. I wish they'd just merge away this show with TWD and start a new series from scratch.

I don't want Fear to crossover. They can bring Alicia over but everyone else, ehh... no thanks.

That's more or less what I was getting at. Just kill off the unlikeable characters from FTWD (which is most of them IMO), and bring over Alicia, Strand, Morgan, Daniel and John.

That's exactly what I want to see. It will help bolster the cast of TWD. They are planning on doing another TWD show and it certainly won't be ready this year. Sounds like more of a 2020 thing so I would end FTWD before that show begins.

Yeah only care about her too. Her character development mirror Rick.

[rickah88]

I will be happy if Morgan rejoins the original show. Don’t think he fared well on Fear. Plus once Michonne is gone after next season, Morgan would be the perfect replacement.
