Why is Fear The Walking Dead SO BAD?!

  • Since Fear The Walking Dead is in the midst of its fifth season, I thought it was time to ask why is Fear The Walking Dead so bad? For the first three seasons of the show, it at least felt like its own entity, but by season five, it is just a Walking Dead outcast reboot. For a show that had/has a ton of potential, it is quite the mediocre product. If Fear is your show, that's great! But, for me, the show just has too many flaws to look over. Make sure to let me know your thoughts on FTWD in the comments. Thanks for watching.

    I honestly miss the old version of FEAR; especially with the themes they dealt with that went beyond the world they lived in ( drug addiction, cultism, racism, abuse) It felt real. They found their footing in the third season and for them to fire the old showrunner and reboot it...it just defeats the whole purpose of this show now. It’s basically TWD Texas.

    I enjoyed the first 2 seasons despite their flaws. I really liked season 3 and it felt like they found their footing. I was really excited going into season 4. Nick and Madison had a conversation near the end of season 3 which foreshadowed that Nick might kill Madison which would have been cool. I understand that the original Fear show isn’t for everyone but it had its audience who enjoyed it a lot. I feel like the Morgan and Friends’ reboot is for no one though. Part of what made the first 3 season captivating for me was that the characters were all out for themselves and operating in s very morally grey area. The reboot changed all that by making everyone Morgan lite. Everything in the shoe now happens to support Morgan. Seasons 4 and 5 are so bad. Killing off characters is fine but there needs to be a plan. The deaths in the first 3 seasons worked really well but the season 4 deaths were just insulting.

I am now in S02E04 and I don't know if I should continue watching it. Only reason why I didn't quit it is Morgan and Dwight that will appear there. Fear the Walking dead had a big potencial but they messed it up, you have no feelings from these scenes and if somebody dies, you don't care, because they didn't make almost any character interesting enough that you will hope he will survive. I was wondering if I should watch Fear the Walking dead Flight 462 but I will never watch it, because it's even worse than this shitcome.

    In my opinion, I started to love fear for the fact that I already what was coming in the original show due to reading the comics. Fears first season started off as pretty much setting plot of the apocalypse which I enjoyed, season 2 did drag but I still enjoyed, season 3 was when they found their footing and it was great. Then in season 4 they just ruined so much by adding Morgan and involving so many plot holes for points we wondered what happened after the dam. Now it’s the Morgan show. The reboot is awful and it is just so unrealistic now as to where the original was more practical.

    Fear started fairly good but continually devolved into trash. The dialogue between characters is clunky and unrealistic which makes it annoying just to watch. The writing in the latest season has some how fallen even farther into Tumblr fan fiction territory on top of everything else. Here's an example,
    The "story needs to be told" chick finds some black ops chick and throughout the whole episode exchange forced dialogue that doesn't make much sense and contributes little to nothing to the story and pointing guns at one another only to suddenly have a random lesbian make out scene out of nowhere at the end.

I absolutely admire the writer, whoever it is, that wrote Grace's miscarriage episode. I actually have no complaints for the ending. The fact that the "main-gang" fails to stop a dozen *Nuclear blast* in the TWD universe is just sooo bafflingly fascinating to me.

    Season 3 went downhill the moment they killed off Travis for no reason whatsoever. Then they brought on Troy as a main character instead of capping his sadistic psychopathic ass as soon as humanly possible, which would have been much more realistic. They treated him like a poor damaged kid who just had a bad upbringing and needed support and friends. No, he was a psycho killer, and needed to be put down. Negan and the Governor were both less sociopathic than Troy.
    The only thing that can explain season 4 and beyond is that the new showrunners must have connections. They couldn't have gotten the job by their ability to make decent television. This is what happens in a society where everybody gets blue ribbons...

    I thought it was bad from the beginning, too little zombie action, wooden acting, and bad characterization all around that made it hard for me to even believe something as good as twd could produce something like this...amazing. Amazingly bad. I can’t believe they had numerous opportunities to develop them and just throw it away for lame speeches and emotionless acting. I’ve never seen worse acting than some of the scenes on the show. Killing a character offscreen instead of freaking showing it to us like twd did? Shameful. They did that to two MAIN leads who were important, instead of freaking letting us see their deaths and having time to mourn. Imagine if Sophia had been killed off screen. Imagine if Shane died off screen. Some of the most incredible scenes were powerful in twd because they LET you see that people died. They didn’t hide it.
    The walkers don’t emerge as often as they should in ftwd and it hurts the sense of danger that was omnipresent in TWD. Walkers are a joke here, sometimes they kill people but mostly characters just brush them off and the worst bit is the bad acting. I wouldn’t mind the corny speeches if they at least...felt something. But like aside from the girl, the guy and the mom, everyone else is so freaking wooden half the time. They don’t sound believable or compelling, they sound like they’re reading from a script. Sometimes, FTWD gets it right, like the astronaut episode or the ranch arc. But like, having a guy recite poetry while a crow eats his brains isn’t serious, it’s hilarious and kills the sadness we should feel. Inconsistent tone holds this show back from being something great.
    Finally, the worst bit, characters spend endless amounts of time doing nothing, just sitting around and staring. TWD always had something happening. You’d think they were on a vacation. Do something. Where’s the active plot here? At least the first season had a plot. Second season they drift around on a boat, yay. Zombies should NOT be boring.
    FTWD just...could be so much better but instead it moves like molasses, slow and pondering, with underused and neglected characters, ridiculous plots (water shortage, seriously? This is a zombie show, focus on the zombies more) and sometimes okayish acting. First episode of twd had me reeled in. I never wanted to miss an episode. FTWD...I tried man, I tried and I was so bored, so discouraged.
    It’s not good. It’s not bad. It’s just disappointingly executed. Nothing hurts worse than seeing something with promise just not live up to its potential. A premise about before the apocalypse should not be dull or uneventful. Bring in more walkers, more danger, more EMOTIONS, and bam. It would be much better. Alas, I stopped in season three and will not return.

      Only way of watching this cringy and boring version of the real Walking dead is setting play speed to 2x and saving half of your lifetime for something useful than this garbage. I am now in S02E04 and I don't know if I should continue watching it. Only reason why I didn't quit it is Morgan and Dwight that will appear there. Fear the Walking dead had a big potencial but they messed it up, you have no feelings from these scenes and if somebody dies, you don't care, because they didn't make almost any character interesting enough that you will hope he will survive. I was wondering if I should watch Fear the Walking dead Flight 462 but I will never watch it, because it's even worse than this shitcome.

      I gotta say the acting and/or the writing was awful man. Like some of the stuff Alicia says is so ridiculous like who thinks to say that? Especially in an apocalypse. Like my goodness no one says anything worthwhile in the whole 2 seasons I’ve watched. The characters are just supremely unlikeable.and the worst part is that these guys are the main characters. The people you’re supposed to like are assholes. I get it when they make an enemy unlikeable like Negan was a jerk and that made you want him to get his. But jeez, no one is cool

    Just as Travis started to carry the show as a fan favourite, He died. Just when Nik carries the show, he died. Nik was the only good thing about season 4 and was only in a few episodes.
    The choice of actresses/actors have really let the show down. The amount of times i have cringed due to the poor acting and line delivery of Al and June is depressing. Its like im watching Z nation at times with Als character😂.
    There are even some momments i find the actress that plays alycia doesent suit "her new role/character" as well as she did in earlier seasons.
    The script isnt as engaging as the walking dead and i dont think Morgans actor has the chemistry with the FTWD cast as he did with TWD.
    First 3 seasons were 🔥 season 4 was kind of pathetic, and what ive seen of season 5 its looking just as depressing as 4.
    I would have been more happy if they just scrapped FTWD after season 3 and brought some of the characters with the most potential (Nik, Alycia, Strand, Salazar, Taka) to The walking dead.👐

    Honestly, i loved how main characters had seemingly sudden and pointless deaths, its very realistic that even badass characters can just get killed out of the blue. I think tv shows and movies got us used to plot armor and dramatic death scenes. I just wish FTWD did it in a better way and made more detailed characters that act accordingly to their own logic who would be actually missed by viewers.

  • @kf9346

    Reasons:
    1. Maddison is a repulsive character.
    2. "For my family, family family" is the excuse for EVERYTHING ALL THE TIME.
    3. Season 3.
    4. The Maddy/Nick undying love for Troy made ABOSLUTELY NO SENSE.
    5. Maddison and her family dynamics (WGAF?) just becomes a melodrama more fit for a nighttime soap.
    6. Cheap, cheap, cheap script tricks like--character holdings someone at gunpoint too close the person.. OH NO! They grab the gun from their captor and fight ensues! Again, again, again...
    7. SO MUCH SPANISH. If I want to read, I'll read; I wanna WATCH.
    8. Any show with teenage main characters is gonna hurt, but this one started with # super whiny teenage characters!
    9. Not written as an ensemble that allows good actors playing interesting characters: Nick, Strand and Crazy Dog to shine through because it's ALL ABOUT MADDISON ALL THE TIME.
    10. Constantly insulting the audience because so many of the characters' choices make absolutely no sense and are so obviously inserted just to drag out tension or drama.

    I have watched TWD all the way up until season 10 and FTWD up to season 6 and i honestly prefer FTWD, i think it depends on what seasons you talk about like if someone asked me which do i prefer TWD seasons 1-2 or FTWD 1-2 i would say TWD but now i prefer FTWD over TWD any day of the week. I don't understand why the fans liked Nick though? he would just throw mards and run off walking with the dead making his family go after him and stuff.....hated Morgan with all his peace talks and i think they realised that nobody liked it as in season 6 he turns into an angry Rick Grimes and TWD season 10 is basically 99.9% talking and based around Daryl and Carol 24.7 it got boring...i would care more about FTWD ending than TWD.

    I like the first three seasons, but after season four, I went off the show. Mainly because the focus shifts onto a new line of characters, who are decent, but kind of deviate from what I liked about the show.
    In my opinion Fear the Walking Dead should always be about the Clarks and their struggle for survival and to stay together as a family.
    Even though I like the Walking Dead and have a soft spot for the later seasons, I do think Fear the Walking Dead is more intense and kind of refreshing.

    Season 3 was the best season of FEAR (even better than the Walking Dead was during this same run time). But they fired Dave Erickson when the show had finally hit it’s stride and brought in a couple of nerdy writers from “Once Upon A Time” to turn a gritty and deep show set in the Apocalypse into a cheesy, Sci Fi channel level show with cartoon characters. Then they killed off Nick and Madison, the leads of the show, and brought in Morgan just to give Lenny James his own show. It was such a waste of great potential!!
