The Little Prince

I am a mega fan of both Walking Dead shows, and while they both have ups and downs, one strength overall has been that the actions of the characters typically feel genuine.

However, this episode set a new low bar in that the major sequences that occurred were simply not believable, nor were they decisions that rational people would make in those situations. It is painfully obvious that a theme was chosen for this season, and by god the writers MUST write a story that fits neatly with the theme. But at the expense of having anything that remotely resembles a believable story.

Sure, anyone watching the show is willing to entertain what happens in an unreal world, but when common sense no longer applies, enjoyment of watching the show no longer applies. I will still give it a 4 stars because there are still technical aspects to the filming that are well done, and the actors are doing an admirable job to deliver bad material.

Please AMC - we need new showrunner(s) immediately.

Such a cool episode with everyone being together, kinda. Al is now one of my favorite characters for sure. Sarah is chill. Charlie is actually useful, same as Victor. June is amazing. John - no words needed (he is everything the show needs). Morgan is such a good person and loyal friend. Wendell is chill as well. Dwight is tragic but cool. Alicia - badass as ever. Luciana, the love of my life. Grace is a promising newbie, hopefully she sticks around, I really like Karen David as an actress. Oh well, and the kids. Not so sure about them.

Let's all stand around and give speeches. Than let's cry on each others shoulder. This season sucks. I don't know if they got new writers or what the deal is. It started last season. And it's gotten worse. I feel like I'm watching the A Team. Making stuff out of nothing for a fight. They could have drove out of there in the time they looked for airplane parts. Last season while people suffered and almost died Morgan walked how far to save them? Really. They should have been dead.

Can't say I'm really feeling this nuclear meltdown zombie contamination thing. I appreciate them trying to take it up a notch with the zombie threat but they haven't really sold this thing. Nice to see the power plant in the distance from the Beer balloon though....... I hated the balloon but I still enjoyed it, maybe that's what this series needs, some good self depreciating weirdness, So one woman works alone to contain a nuke meltdown in a world where that's probably not the biggest thing to worry about. They spent so little time selling the threat though. Thought the scene with Morgan and his old stick would yield some bigger insight and laughs, it was ok. The best bits again were John Dorie's. I like the luck angle, things just fall into place for the guy, surprising even him. Would have preferred he didn't break his honesty code to perpetuate Dwight's story though. It makes a change to see good in the modern tv world instead of wall to wall grimness and dark choices. Don't feel the need to turn Dorie dark, he's fine just as he is. Looks like the paid 10/10 reviewers are still in a job after all. You know we can see what other programs you've reviewed. Having only written 3 Walking dead reviews is a Walking Dead giveaway. At least whack down some rubbish for a couple of other shows for your employers just to make it look like you're at least trying to cover your tracks.

Fear the Walking Dead

Episode 5.06 (3 out of 5 stars).

While Morgan and his group are tasked at fixing a plane to escape a contaminated area. John and Dwight are on a search for Sherry.

The episode is a bit of a slow burn. A plot that is little interesting with a group being stuck from a power plant that is beginning another meltdown and the zombies are contaminated with radiation. The kids are stubborn on leaving the hostile location. The episode has been nothing but a repetition with a weak story and slow moving pace. A group of surviving scientists exterminating the radioactive zombies. And a mysterious military group that is coming and going. The season needs to pick up.
