All out war.


Time Jump

And finally the whisperers.
Season 8 is War. Just the war.
Spoiler: show
There's a minimum of 3 battles (Alexandria II, Sanctuary, Hilltop) plus any additional skirmishes added because of Junkers or Oceanside.

There are a lot of relationship and role changes that comes with the flash forward. The TV show will likely spend entire episodes on the new world and character dynamic changes. If I had to guess, season 9 will start with the flash forward and will end with the boundry fence or Negan's escape.
Personally, Season 8 would be a great stopping point for the series.

Well, at least there was some good action scenes in the finale. And how Sasha turned was kinda cool.
For all the talk about the CGI deer a couple weeks no one has said anything about Shiva? And not just this past episode.

I think because the CGI deer was totally pointless and stupid. The Tiger is at least a cool part of the story.

Yo, that deer was so much more terrible. I didn't even see anything wrong with the tiger, maybe because he moved fast and we only saw him briefly, whereas we stared at that terrible deer for hours. hours

Like they couldn't just get a real deer to stand there?

That deer had to represent something. Innocence, maybe? Going back to when Carl got shot and how he changed afterwards, then the one Michonne accidentally killed in Season 7, Episode 4, then another one getting devoured in Episode 12. This season was okay. I always enjoy the show a lot more when I'm able to binge it. The blu ray for this season will be packed with extras. Negan!! :thumbsup:

This was one of my big complaints - I said to Mrs Rangi at the time that it was annoying the crap out of me. Civilization didn't fall apart all that long ago and already they're talking like a bunch of retards.
Nailed it.

Rosita caught a bullet (shoulder?) and Michonne got mugged. Both are in the recovery room.

Rick gets shot in the hip/midsection and he's right back out on stage giving speeches.

These last 2 seasons of Fear have been better than the last 2 season of TWD. Less characters and more direct stories, action and conclusions are some of the reasons.

I've heard that from a couple people but I gave up on Fear after the first run of episodes. I probably should revisit but I don't watch as much tv as I used to & there's a bunch of shows out there.

Many of the complaints, suggestions and "why don't they..." that are aimed at TWD are implemented on Fear. IE, going on a boat and finding a survivalist camp, etc. The camp will definitely fall.

This season of Fear is excellent! Every episode was extremely satisfying. I swear Madison & Troy remind me of Alpha/Beta from the comics, though. Their dynamic is very similar. TPTB swear there won't be a crossover, so who knows? I am worried about Scott M. Gimple taking over as EP next season.. :?

Just started watching the new season of Fear last night - pretty damn good so far. And I didn't see that major death coming.
Kind of hoping that guy from The Following isn't in it too much though
