Fear The Walking Dead - Episode 2x08 "Grotesque" August 21, 2016 (Mid-Season Premiere)

So I've given ep 2x08 a try ... and to cut it short, it was pretty disappointing.
It was slow and partially boring. I wonder if the showrunners actually think this is exciting for the audience or
if they just ran out of good ideas and move along to fill the episode order ...

Yea, I'm with you, not a good episode at all, I wonder how this show is doing in the ratings?

Here's a link to the AMC ratings:

FTWD is nothing compared to TWD, but surprisingly it seems to be AMC's second best show ratingswise ...
Actually I can't believe, how they manage to do that ... I could really get kind of angry, when I compare FTWD's ratings to a gem like Better Call Saul ...
But it is as it is ...

well I missed it ! lol I guess it did start sunday, evidently didnt miss much!
I will try and get or see it, and then post.

They need to reboot the show, with new cast and new writers, and new showrunner.
The ratings may be good but I bet they are still falling.
They have dropped steadily.

0k saw it, and it was the adventures of nick lol , a solo ep, which wasnt bad,
he is just really dumb.
It was good character development, but the character is just bad so development
doesnt mean much.

But overall it was a interesting ep.
Bunch of corny stuff, but that is to be expected.

Here is something I thought of, if nick walks 30 miles, many on concrete or asphalt,
it would wear his shoes out. soles would wear down & develop holes, or cracks.

So with all the walking Z's do, their shoes should have no soles, and they are too
stupid to get new shoes, so they all should be barefoot?

Then I would think even the skin would wear out unlike a normal human would develop
callouses.

I think season 2 is a little early for a reboot...
how about they just write a compelling story with interesting characters...
The characters they have do have potential, just write them better...
I don't blame the actors, they just perform what is written.

Well ez the actors arent to blame, but the writers have pretty much ruined their
characters?
That is why I think they need to kill these off and write in some new ones.
But they also need new showrunner and writers first.

this last ep 209 was ok, but slow and again they make the characters stupid and unlikable.
I still like the girl from 100 but the rest are ruined.

They go into hotel , and actually left the front door open, then get drunk and play the piano ???????
Madison breaking the glasses ?
To me everything is precious as there will be no more glasses made, so stupid to break them.

Then the z's falling 6 stories and they get up and walk and are ok ?? lol that is just silly.

Then they are going on with this mexican thing for the dead, and even have a cult for it??
Makes the mexicans look stupid, wonder what they think of this show?

So right now here is hoping that the z's eat madison and the blk guy, 2 down 2 to go!

I guess they did kill off the rueban blade character, havent shown him or celia.

Oh and the boat is gone !! lol they be land lubbers now lol
They are so dumb, I may just look at it as a comedy !

I also wonder how there would still be hot water if no electric or gas ??

Thing to do there would be go room to room and kill all the z's first before you get drunk or bathe !
Once in lock and barricade front door and windows etc.
secure the place !! eat bathe sleep, then your looking smart, but no not these clowns.

I forgot about the dad and his psycho son lol no telling what they are up to!
