    I don't mind a slow pace. But for there to be no real running storyline (at least up to this point) wayyyyy too many of the episodes have been misses IMO. I will stick with it at least through the 2nd season though.

    I don't think it really got going until at least the second season. Probably weren't sure they'd stay on the air.

    It was on FOX, after all.

    CompareD to a show like Breaking Bad etc. the running storyline is nil.
    That soap opera storyline thing in dramatic nighttime TV is mostly post-XFiles.
    But thank you HBO for making it a TV culture.

    So - Fear The Walking Dead..
    I enjoyed the premier. Always liked Vandy-grad Kim Dickens and the gay French kid was actually pretty good too.

    The opening scene felt a bit reminiscent of 28 Days Later (just like TWD's premier) but the cool locations including the Pulp Fiction diner, abandoned church "shooting gallery", the offramp and the creepy-as hell drainage canal entances really were a breath of fresh air from TWD's pine trees and train tracks settings.

    I'm on board...

    Wasn't feeling Fear the Walking Dead. I'll finish the season out though since it's only six episodes.

    Same here. My expectations were super low but I ended up really enjoying it. Was pretty shocked when I went on social media afterwards to find everyone making it out to be the worst thing since the Holocaust.

    I read a few bad reviews on Facebook - all by folks who pretty much require non-stop action and carnage to keep them engaged. They come from the action video game world I suppose..
    For reasons mentioned before I liked it.
