Fear the walking dead

Should be called, fear the wanker living.
These people wouldn't survive three days in a supermarket.

One of the reasons I quit watching after just a few episodes. The zombies have more intelligence.

You aren't wrong. I put up with season 1 and just started watching season 2.

It's like they get dumber as they go.
*spoiler alert*


They are are now on a mega yacht. A near new 40 metre cruiser and they are having to repair things that can't go wrong on a boat. Like the water intake to cool the engines got blocked off by a zombies arm, with said zombie attached. The filter is a standard water filter from Lowes. Um, you have two engines with separate intakes people... wtf?
Even worse, is when a one of the team is running over a sand dune at the beach screaming, "run they're coming", the big experienced guy just stands there looking cool waiting as one by one the horde of zombies come over the dune. Then as they get close, he pulls out a hand gun. If it was anyone with half a brain, the first thing they'd do is get their boat tender back into the water to escape. But no. They wait till the last minute instead.
On the main yacht, the whole armed crew of about 6 people get overrun by three people, one who is 8 months pregnant. The big bad runs around collecting boats and useful people killing off the rest. Even though they know where all the boats are on radar, they lure them into a false sense of security and take them out one boat at a time. A highly elite team of about five idiots does all this.
The plan for the "good" guys is to buy their way into Mexico because apparently Mexico came out far better than the entire USA. If I had a huge yacht that can go around the World, I doubt my "big plan" would be to go to Mexico for refuge. Lot's of islands you can go to and live a happy live since they have a huge self sufficient yacht. Why go to where there can be another huge outbreak?
It's just bad bad writing. I might give it another couple of episodes to see if it will get better but I'm not expecting it to.

My dad loves it. It's so funny to see him posting questions about it on facebook every Sunday, with no responses!

To each his own. Smart people can love dumb things. A secret indulgence of mine is Sabrina the Teenage Witch. It's one I'd still stop on if I were flipping through the channels and happened across it. I have plenty of other things.

The same way I like the Walking Dead. Few of them can survive but at least they are entertaining. I'm just having a lot of trouble relating to any of the characters and the story is just not good enough to carry it though for me.
I like some dumb shows too. I thing we all do.

Yep. I like Supergirl, even though it's dumb and cheesy. Might have something to do with Melissa Benoist.

You know, you can find pretty things all over the internet. You don't have to suffer through horrible TV shows just for glimpses of them.
