The End of Everything

I really liked this episode, especially the character development for Al. Getting some info from the character's past life is always something I appreciate! Good stuff. I read that Sarah Wayne Callies (Lori from TWD) directed this episode - but the credits told me otherwise, Michael E. Satrazemis directed it. He did a decent job!

This episode is recommended for fans of either show or just interested in the The Walking Dead universe and the showrunners, crew and cast did amazing from the locations, action sequences, drama and the acting. Phenomenal writing in this episode which was needed as what they were trying to do and it was a success. I really found the high focus on Althea necessary for two reasons, we finally got to see her grow as a character and learn new things about her which makes you understand her and the other thing being Maggie Grace have the acting capability of doing a solo episode which resulted in one of the season's best episodes. The crew behind the episode delivered suspense and great character development.

We learnt a lot in this episode, information that is useful for one of the show's heroes and the other thing is of course the three circle community, they did a great job at giving us a wider picture of who they are and they got me really hyped for the Rick Grimes movies.

This episode is the first that's given any insight into the various mysterious reasons that Rick disappeared. It's a fascinating watch. It also does a great job developing Al's character in a meaningful way.

Fear the Walking Dead

Episode 5.05 (3 out of 5 stars).

The weakest slow moving episode so far. Almost feels like an episode filler of the season. Which it Follows Al (Maggie Grace) after she was taken captive by a militarized person. Which reveals to be a lady Isabelle. They both share their side of the stories. Which Al is all about trying to uncover untold stories. And we also learn a little about Al and her past. Which is no fun surprises at all. Al and Isabelle spending most of the episode going one place to another to get fuel for the helicopter. And coming across a few zombies and storytelling. This episode was slow. No progression to the plot. The villain of the season which may be this militarized group is still forgettable and weak. This season really needs to pick up the pace of its forgettable season.

Some well deserved character development for Althea in this episode. I love these episodes that focus on one character, because it gives us time to get to know them better and thus care for them more when they're put through endless life and death situations.

As the franchise keeps doing through the years, this episode gives us some spectacular thrills and drama with a harrowing rock climbing sequence. Great camera work!
