3 episodes in; does it get any better, /tv/? So far, it's a piece of horseshit.
Fuck off freeloading scum.
watched the first season its pretty similiar to TWD alot of talking with huge cliffhangers
>>68169271
>not being a rich yuppie
>check your privilige
>phaghoot
>>68169233
It's terrible. At least the pilot had things happening.
>>68169233
It's shit. Walking dead works because the characters are mostly people who could realistically survive the apocalypse. Incompetent suburbanites who fear guns aren't quite the same
>>68169233
It gets worse.
People say the final episode is the best, but I dropped it at the second to last episode and don't intend to pick it back up.
>>68169704
TWD doesn't work. At all.
>>68169766
First 2 seasons were great, though, admit it.
>>68169233
I like the idea of exploring the world at the time of the breakout, but holy FUCK could they have gotten a more unlikable cast for this? Before Strand came on, there was literally no one I could stand. How I made it through S1 is a mystery.
>>68170570
The ONLY good thing to come out of TWD was the first episode and (if I'm being generous) "Clear."
>>68169233
It's consistently bland throughout
>>68170570
>Season 1 was the shortest
>Season 2 is almost universally hailed as the worst in the series with the plot being very stagnant
>lol first 2 sesonds were great tho bro
There's hating the show because you don't like it and there's just being a bandwagoning poseur.
Season 1 is meh
Season 2 is bad
Season 3 is pure shit
Season 4 is meh
Season 5 is okay
Season 6 is GOAT
>>68171058
I binge watched the show up to season 5 and I think I'd kick all of those up a notch besides 6.
Watching weekly fucking sucks for TWD, I think I'll hold off until the mid-season finale to watch S7.
also OP's talking about FtWD

FTWD is shit.

>not ultra shit tier
Seriously? Crack head is always walking around sounding like a retard with that fucking hair and the mom is always standing there with her mouth hanging open, looking just about like the stupidest ape on the block.
>>68171537
>Crack head is always walking around sounding like a retard with that fucking hair and the mom is always standing there with her mouth hanging open,
this is 100% true, but now compare them to the other characters
>>68170570
No, First season is genuinely great, Second season is absolutely awful and Third season is pretty ok. Fourth is good, Fifth is bad, Sixth is decent to awful.
Fuck man, as happy as I am that Lexa is still alive in FTWD they have her doing some real dumb ass shit in the show especially Season 1. Considering she's the "smart one" I had hoped in season 2 she would get her shit together, but nooooope. I given up on her; now I just want to see how her mistakes are going to get their group's shit pushed in next episode.
>>68171356
the old Mexican and the black dude are the only 2 characters on the show, everyone else is furniture.
I'm liking the direction FTWD is going. You have the only likeable, useful character being set up to be the main antagonist (Daniel), his wife called him out as being the devil on her deathbed in S1. I think throughout S2 that will kind of be the elephant in the room as he bails the main cast out of their fuckups and establishes himself as the leader.
It reminds me a little of post-woodbury Governor in TWD but there's a lot more they can do with this.
I think this show will rely less on cheap death of the week episodes and keep the cast much smaller. So this band of fuck-ups are written with room for actual character development in mind which is why they aren't superhuman geniuses straight off the bat. Get used to them
>>68169233
I dropped it after 3 episodes too anon. Shit characters, shit setting
>>68169233
nope
Girl is an annoying character
Boy is an annoying character
Mexican boy is the WORST character
"Madison" is a dreadful character
The El Salvadorian guy can't act
His daughter is boring and shit
That leaves the black guy and Travis - who are both okay.
If the show wants to improve they need to kill 80% of the cast.
>>68173463
>If the show wants to improve they need to kill 80% of the cast.
judging by the groups incredible survival skills and razor sharp intellect that will NEVER happen
>>68169704
>Walkin Dead
>Works
Choose one
>>68169233
its trash. It makes even less sense than TWD.
>>68169233
s02 first episode was shit. Disappointing way to open a new season.
>>68174003
It was fine. It was more establishing the setting and reminding you of who the characters arebecause I think even the showrunners would have to realise that nobody remembers these charactersand it did a good job of that.
After TWD's recent premieres I think people have maybe too high expectations.
>>68174150
Ok I'll bite, what was exciting or interesting in this episode? I might have set my expectations too high but I wish first episode was a bit more interesting.
>>68174150
Chris Hardwick please stop
That was terrible for a premier. It doesn't take 40 minutes to remind us who the main characters are. The guy on the radio turning out to bebadwas very predictable.
>>68174222
>The guy on the radio turning out to be bad was very predictable.
this was so obvious it was painful to watch.
>>68171979
>Fifth is bad
It's literally the best one by a huge margin you cuckold
5 > 1 > 6 > 4 > 2 > 3
>>68174218
>Ok I'll bite, what was exciting or interesting in this episode?
Strand's growing conflict of the crew
Evil boat husbando
Daniel turning Chris into Carl
The point I was making is that the premiere doesn't have to be massive, a lot of the time when that is the case, everything that follows seems a little less exciting. This season is going to be 15 episodes and I don't think that it is being split in half like TWD, that is going to seem like a long arse time with modern shows clocking in 8-10 eps. I'm hopeful for a decent slowburn
>>68174324
>The point I was making is that the premiere doesn't have to be massive
I disagree. This episode was very bleak but I hope they will move past this in next few episodes.
>>68169704
The walking dead is much worse than FTWD
>>68174222
I was disappointed by this, because the main conflict in the show should be internal, not external. I dont think there was any reason to shoehorn in the zombies at the end other than dumb fans who can't enjoy anything else.
I liked most of season 1 but 2s pilot ended horribly
>>68174324
I was happy with season 1, so I hope you're right familia
>>68170812
lets get real here.
"Pilot"
"The Grove"
"What Happened and What's Going On"
Quality episodes, but that's not really saying anything because its been on for 6 seasons.
>>68175223
>"Pilot"
It's "Days Gone Bye" you fucking pleblord
>>68174291
this tbqh, but I would swap 2 with 3. or equal. I dropped the show after season 4 but came back and was blown away by season 5. didn't expect it to be that good.
>>68171356
Travis isn't too bad of a character, at least he didn't support helping the people on the ocean.
>>68174003
The first 10 episodes were pretty good with the firebombings, the sudden zombie attacks (which was authentic btw, the zombies don't always go towards the fire) and the great soundtrack that played when they set out.
>>68174824
you cant be serious
>>68174291
>>68175669
what did you like so much about season 5?
I'm curious because I see this opinion from a lot of people.
I personally enjoyed every TWD season, but 4 is probably my favorite and 5 is my least favorite. I hated the hospital arc.
>>68176734
yes i am Andrew Lincoln. your show sucks worse than anything else on TV
At least the vague spin off is a slow burn and tries to have internal conflict more often than not
>We have bigass boat with infinite drinking water that can reach Hawaii teheee xD
>>68176937
what internal conflict? all the conflict so far is, do we help this person or not? and so far the answer has been mostly yes because everyone is still naive.
>>68173416
pick it back up. the first ep of s2 is great. reminds me of the first 10 mins or so of dawn of the dead
>>68176986
I really hope Strand gets his shit together and actually puts these people in their place.
They clearly have no respect for Strand and his boat, if it even is his but it doesn't matter right now.
>>68177043
>everyone is still naive.
gee maybe it's because the entire first season they we're not near any zombies.
>>68177063
it kind of sucked at the end though. i didn't need the guy on the radio being a bad guy
>>68176937
t. Kim Dickens
So this is an AMC production in the TWD universe right, it has nothing to do with the comics?
>>68169233
when will this Atreyu looking motherfucker fuck his step sister
>>68169704
The walking dead is shit. Even ftwd is better than it
one of the characters brought up something about the black bro and how he was already prepared to leave and shit.
and it makes sense, no one parks a boat off the public coastline and shit and it is like the guy knew this shit was coming.
it will probably be stupid, but i kind of want to see what dumb twist they are going to pull with him
>>68182264
never because hes gay
youre probably gay too since you cant tell when someone is gay
>>68169233
this show is more "nothing happens: the show" than better cuck chuck
this show is patrician tbqh
>>68182693
>youre probably gay too since you cant tell when someone is gay
that doesn't make sense, wouldn't gay people know best who's gay and who's not.
>>68176761
The hospital arc is definitely the weakest point of Season 5 but it's really short and still pretty good. Seeing Atlanta later into the apocalypse was cool and the dynamic that the police had set up was interesting. It's one of the better pieces of the shows original content.
As for the rest of the season it's hard to explain why it's so good but I'll try. I think a lot of it has to do with how perfectly Season 4's ending set it up. The start of S5 with the cannibals was undeniably good television. The "tainted meat" scene still gives me chills. We also learn a lot more about Abraham. As cool as Abe is you still have to feel sorry for him given all the shit that he went through just before meeting up with Eugene. And then he finds out that his mission, the only thing stopping him from killing himself, was all a lie. Then int he second half of the season, Alexandria exists as a direct contrast to the way Rick and co. had been surviving until that point. It shows Rick that civilization can still exist, while he doesn't accept it at first, he learns how to when he falls in love with Jessie.
A lot of people give the show shit about being way too talkative but Season 5 also has some really good speeches in it.Not mention the epic cucking of Pete Anderson.
>>68184245
>wouldn't gay people know best who's gay and who's not.
Not at all. I have a gay friend who is terrible at determining people's sexuality. He'll make advances on straight guys and seems genuinely shocked when he finds out that someone else is gay, no matter how obvious it was to the rest of us.
Straight people have far more accurate gaydars than gay people do.
Walking dead suffers from the same thing that Man In The High Castle does which is that they take a premise that in itself is very interesting and engaging but fill every moment of the show with insufferable lame drama shit that no one cares about.
