I'm not 100% out, but I'll begin "pseudo-watching" this crap. That's when my wife watches, I surf the net/read/do something else, and look up when something interesting happens. I'm sooooo over this series.
Funny thing, though....I still enjoy Fear the Walking Dead.....so far, anyway.
I am too. I'm generally very laidback and accepting; I'm not one to give up on a show just because I disagree with a decision made by its writers. But my limit has been reached. The show has become very repetitive and gimmicky. It's pretty much just limping along now, directionless. And I can think of better ways to occupy my time than with a show I've lost interest in.
I wish I could just "rip it off like a bandage" once and for all. Unfortunately, my significant other wants to continue watching it. I would be too nosy not to listen while it was playing🙄
As humdrum as the walking dead has become, its still got more going for it than fear. What a horrible show that is. No likeable characters at all. A plot thats best described as something that has first passed through the digestive system of a cat. And scripts that are so utterly devoid of any real substance that they all might as well talk to each other in a charlie browns teacher kind of way.
The only thing that might have made that show worth it, was to watch the evolution of the travis character from mild mannered husband trying to do his best to slowly becoming a tyrant as hes battered over and over again by his new life in the zombie apocalypse. I had hoped that he would have been the one to kill his son and that would have started his descent, but alas it was not to be.
what's funny is that I was hoping that the Fear series was going to go in the direction of showing an audience of how a villain like the Governor, or Negan, started out, and evolved into that villain. But alas... Travis felt like that character, but it wasn't meant to be. I honestly don't give a shit about anyone else on that show.
I watch the Walking Dead out of habit anymore, but it's far from the same enthusiasm as I used to - I don't devote time to watch it that night anymore, and can catch up with it later. Fear the Walking Dead is something that's easy for me to ignore, and I'll simply catch up with info (without actually watching it) at the end of the season.
FTWD actually got a little better in S2, and much better this last season. It's funny that you mention "Travis". I thought he was possibly one of the worst actors I have ever seen. I just hated him. I hated the Mother, too, but she got a bit better ,as she toned it way down.
You lose a lot of credibility with me by admitting to liking Fear.
That show was obvious trash five minutes into the first episode. I managed to endure the entire run of Falling Skies, which was horrendous, but I couldn't get through the 2nd season of Fear.
Firstly, my credibility with you is completely irrelevant to me.
Secondly, the second season of FtWD blows away the entire Negan story-line by several dozen country miles. I find both series lacking in some respects, but the original series is, by far, the worst offender.
I would rather see an anthology series of individual stories....kind of like World War Z (the book, not the appalling film version).
