Ok I have a vague recollection of that but hard to imagine he sticks out that much in most peoples memories unless they recently rewatched season 1. Seems like a throw away character to me. If you were going to bring back someone like that I would think it would be Alex (Charlie) from Flight 462 that had alot more story around.

Yes her WTF was that all about she was in the short story and than part of that kidnapping boat story which they made it look like she will become part of the series and never happened strange and lets not forget last season finale when Alicia went off on her own and found someone knew or the biker gangs that controlled some stadium.


So many characters came and went and so many where they give it a story felt like they will be part of the series.


FTWD is really a messy character story you either become part of it or become a character plot hole.

Meh finale to a meh season.

FTWD took a step back this season (I may be the only person in the world who is bored to death by Morgan and his story line) but I still prefer it over TWD. I watched the season opener of TWD this week and wished I could be watching FTWD instead.

Morgan's story would have been cool if we didn't just get 3 seasons worth of it in TWD. He's gotten more spotlight than any other character since he returned.

I thought the first half of this season was really, really strong. Was disappointed in the second half, which unfortunately sagged quite a bit and had a weak villain. Still, I immensely enjoy the new characters they've added to the show. Looking forward to where things go in S5.

They should've given Morgan a great death during All Out War in TWD, and make him the one to convince Rick to stop the killing and move towards building a society.

I was a huge critic of this show, but by the end of season 3 I (and many others) were LOVING it. So yeah it is beyond retarded that they scrapped that story arch. For a show that in both it's iterations finds it SO HARD to come up with good story lines, what they did is creatively unforgiveable.

Yeah I think John Dory is the highlight of the "new show".

No you are not the only one bored to death about Morgan heck this all started with the episode him get trained with the stick and blame the writers they just have to make more of Drama for the show compared to what the comic book is like, pretty much watered down weak characters. Heck if they did Negan like the comic books that would have been a major ballsy upgrade but no AMC still scared to use the F word more than once while other networks like USA and FX have changed.


And **** those who let their kids watch this shows because after many complains how brutal was Negan's character the creators of the show the violence once again will be toned down I mean shit do this parents even know that their kids are possibly reading the comic books also/



last season on FTWD used the F word once by Madison which for me was not really expected and the violence on FTWD was much more than TWD but now I don't know if I am watching Horror TV Series or Drama or is it both anymore.

I believe it's called a Horramedy.

I'm bored with Morgan too. And since they seem to have made FTWD his show I'm done with this show too.

The first half of S4 was good despite Morgan. But the second half was brutal (except the episode that didn't have Morgan, which was really good.)

Not surprised Daniel is coming back... but Troy? How did his skull not cave in? Has Daniel been caring for the brain damaged Troy? Answering these questions almost makes me want to watch S5... but then I remember Morgan will be around.

Awesome news! Looking forward to the premiere.

Another TWD universe movie may be in the works:

"There is also the possibility of Blades playing his role of Daniel Salazar in a Dead universe movie, which could revive Michael Cudlitz's Abraham Ford character. Like several other projects, a film with Blades and Cudlitz is in the earliest stages of development."

Just thought I'd share... my sister attended a "General Hospital" fan event and got my Season 2 Blu-ray signed by Kathleen Gati.

She appeared as a flight attendant on the "Flight 462" web-series.

FearTWD Season 5 to add Salazar, Troy, and Dwight into the mix?

Skeptically optimistic after the abortion Season 4 turned out to be.

I'm interested but still think I'll be skipping season 4 all together, at least the back half where I quit watching. I'll start watching during the season premiere instead lol.

I hope season 5 of Fear moves the focus away from Morgan and back to Strand and co.

Is Troy confirmed? I wonder how they could explain his appearance. He looked fairly dead the last time we saw him.

Yes, Troy was confirmed. There's an article posted a few posts above.

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.
