Fear The Walking Dead RECAP: Full Series

It's the first The Walking Dead spin off series, which showed the start of the zombie apocalypse in Los Angeles, but then turned into the Morgan Jones show in Texas, and from there things just kept getting weirder!

Plot armour for this show is on a whole another level

[@abdullaahiahmed8924]

The plot armour for the worst characters on the show by far💯

[@andy72090]

except for likeable characters. As soon as they killed off Trevor when he was becoming badass i stopped watching

[@gabrielsaavedra7916]

17:52 is a perfect example

[@ichigotheg.o.a.t]

​@@gabrielsaavedra7916bri Morgan always had plot armor this isn't the first remember he doesn't die remember

[@ry2950]

I love how they made an effort to bring back Troy whom was killed off for a stupid reason just to once again kill him off for a stupid reason.

[@JJJBunney001]

Bringing him back was so dumb. He got his head caved in with a hammer and lost in a dam explosion

[@abdullaahiahmed8924]

I mean we really need to delve in this writing and why was it so moronic. Why does Madison or Strand have any legs to stand on with everything they have done. But i knew Troy was going to die regardless of him saving Her but what i had an issue with is why they let way more bad people live after stupid ass speeches????

[@ineedpowers5151]

I would have loved it if Troy had killed Madison this time!! But No

[@abdullaahiahmed8924]

@@ineedpowers5151 It made no sense and also Maddison becoming stepmom for Tracy after killing Troy!

​@AryansAreTheKingsOfThisPlaneti completely agree, it's why i never got into this show like i TWD... They didn't even give it long before she started moving like Lara Croft 😩 completely unrelated but Chris was a tool as well lol

[@Wrenchingandnursing]

The more I listened the more bewildered I got. Literally every single character in the show can't actually die. There are no permanent deaths.

[@inmyhumbleopinion_]

All of the best male characters are dead dead. Travis, Nick and John Dorie.

[@robrussell7828]

thats why its such a bad show.. among other things

[@breadfan9]

Nick is totally dead. They barried him

[@katharinafesseler7819]

Well except Nick, who was actually the best character on that show

[@OfficialJuanCamacho]

Everything after season 3 was just crazy lol. Happy with the ending we got for Madison and Alicia though. 🤷🏻‍♂️

YES!! I stopped watching FTWD a couple seasons ago, but still want to know what happen. I’ve been waiting for Man of Recaps do his thing.

[@markokuhar670]

The first season was so awesome and promising, crazy how this series went down the toilet bowl

[@lovemadness9291]

True. It was on par with the actual series 1st season too.

[@bugoyoutub]

@@lovemadness9291 I'm glad I only watched the 1st season.

[@ryderwilson7955]

I remember how season 3 was looking to become an amazing continuation of the show but instead they killed off nick and from there everything went to shit.

[@shmoga]

why would that be crazy? arent you familiar with the walking dead? its expected.

[@GardeDuCoeur]

Generally it's because the first season is written with the original director (big name), but not the following seasons.

[@tiagov.s.2693]

Having never seen the show. I went "wtf" every couple seconds during your recaps of season 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8

[@Gabebbee]

Seasons 1-3 of fear was GOATED, too bad the new showrunners didn’t believe in it’s premise

[@telepopstudios]

oh god! I have been looking for you to do this! I have a love/'hate relationship with FEAR.. you have saved me from the pain of actually watching all of it!

[@inmyhumbleopinion_]

This show is completely unrecognizable from the early seasons. Some time after season 3, I started realizing the show was just a soap opera with zombies.

[@rebyj]

The last half of season 3 was the best television I've ever seen in my 59 years. The disappointment of the "reboot" bullcrap was so deep that I haven't even been curious about how it ended but I knew I could sit through your recap.

[@lovemadness9291]

Really? I mean, game of thrones wasn't good enough?

[@YariAzQuran]

I don't know about the best TV ever in 59 years but I totally agree with the sentiment -- Season 3 was AMAZING and Season 4 turning into Morgan and Friends was so disappointing to see.

[@daniellarry8495]

Hello there, how are you doing today?

[@JohnDcitizen]

I quit during season 4 it just seemed like an entirely different show

[@samashes3856]

I lost track of the series after the first season. Just caught up with your help and "What the actual hell was all that about..." good grief that is some real work you've done to summarize the series for us. Thank you (again). And, nice touch having the beer balloon for your end sequence. Well done Man of Recaps. Well done. 🔥

[@ExquisiteKinkyCoils]

💯🎯🎯🎯

[@FirstTimeCaller-ec8ve]

Jesus, I'm so glad I didn't waste my time watching the final season. Thank you for this. It gave me the reassurance that I made the right decision.

[@teddm835]

Not even done watching the recap, but there's this pattern where everywhere they go, they disrupt the peace. It's frustrating cause they don't seem to learn

[@meeks726]

Any TWD series is like that... either someone goes missing and comes back... dies then comes back... loses homes and finds new home... etc

[@Randomgirl3468]

There's a "what if the twd intro had song lyrics" song on yt and it says "every building not on fire is really just a building Rick & Co had not yet set on fire" referring to the earlier twd seasons. Making fun of the fact that the second Rick's group shows up somewhere chaos and destruction follows

[@dutchvanderlinde6076]

With the original way the show was supposed to go, that actually would’ve made sense. The show was supposed to follow the group go from a regular group of survivors to a group of ruthless ones who would essentially be the villains of their own story. Them unintentionally destroying everything in their path and not learning a damn thing seems on par with that.

[@kenhsiung]

lol when they killed Madison originally I was like oh thank God now she can stop destroying every community they go to. Then lo and behold they brought her back to once again to do the exact same thing over and over.

[@Memehuskie]

This got to be the most plot armor show I ever witnessed

[@merbearlorelei]

I quit the series around season 3 but... seeing where the show ended up, I'm so glad I quit when I did. I.... have no other words.

[@MistahJay7]

The Stadium Arc was the beginning of the end for this show

[@ericad528]

I've really enjoyed this show. It was very fast paced show compared to the OG.

[@Ramiroocampo]

Travis to the writers: "Am I a joke to you?"

[@Legionaer666]

I think the actor asked to be killed off to work on other projects and I bet he didn't regret it a single time.

[@TiaCatR]

Thanks Man of Recaps! Wow. Watching it all laid out in one long recap really illustrates how abysmally bad it got after season 3 ended. Such a shame, because it started out as a pretty great show.

[@charity2419]

The "Get it on" always gets me everytime...

[@pinchyh]

The biggest problem with this and the main Walking Dead show is they kept going for about 4 seasons longer than they needed to

[@wisegamer706]

the walking dead still had talented actors and writers though so they pulled it off. This show was destined for failure after the reboot.

[@TunciBalunci]

The main walking dead show was still pretty good and season 9 might be a top 3 season. 10 & 11 were still good tho and it had a solid ending imo. But Fear… oh lord I could go on about Fear forever. Major disappointment of a show. Season 6 was alright tho.

[@wisegamer706]

@@TunciBalunci yeah its crazy how bad those writers were when they have such talent for other shows in the same universe.

[@colderratic5681]

This man just can’t miss 🔥 Stopped watching once Morgan came in and messed up the whole show but now I can see whether any of this mattered or not, you’re the best!

[@Ashor]

bro, never seen the show, watching the recap, the start seems really interesting and then deteriorated into about 40 different temporary deaths. more than supernatural

[@voldschen232]

I used love to binge watch this series when I was waiting for the TWD new seasons but after Travis died it's just downhill and then Nick dies too (altho some ppl hated the character) and it just made no sense after, Madison comes back to life from explosions not once BUT TWICE! and then they made us believe Alicia died just to pull the same thing again not to mention freaking Troy too? At that point might as well bring Travis, Nick, and everyone else back. Oh yeah and we didn't get to see home boi Tobias back so the ending felt off. thanks for reading my rant lol

[@tomslade8731]

How did Travis dying make the show go downhill? His death literally produced one of the best seasons from the entire franchise. After 3x16 ended, that was the end of the show.

[@BeerontheBrain327]

So glad I don't have to hate-watch this show anymore. In a 24 hour period we saw Madison get her head smashed in with a shovel, drowned in quicksand, shot in the chest and get blown up and buried under rubble. The writing in this show sucks so bad.

All that's worth watching from Fear is seasons 1-3 and the last episode ✔️ Great recap though ✨

[@laeseries1163]

Still don't think that Nick should have died. He was a very interesting character that would have continued to make this spin off great.

[@elaz925]

So glad you are doing this I always wondered what happened but I stopped watching after they stopped showing the early outbreak stuff, which was the whole point of the show.

[@floki9493]

[@emmamorley1836]

Nick should have been immune.. The story in my mind was him developing an immunity to the virus or whatever, because of all the drugs in his system and he also ended up overdosing. I think that would be such a cool thing, cause his life suddenly mattered and he couldn’t really waste it like he was doing before it all started with all the drugs… it could’ve focused on Nick essentially going around with that guy at the start, separated from his family and possibly smuggled and taken around by military forces or even bandits and what not. He could be this “Ellie” type figure, trying to get a cure made from him

[@tamvu2229]

Immunity because he was doing drugs is definitely not the message we wanna send to the world LOL

[@Kos1256]

If I'm correct the reason there are walkers in the show is cause s space virus maybe somebody who regularly gets sick and as such has a high immune system could be immune?But nick being immune sounds like a good plot

[@tamvu2229]

@@Kos1256 I think that's a highly interesting take that makes alot of sense. I think I am just disagree with drugs being the side effect cure.

[@Kos1256]

@@tamvu2229 It would make sense since drugs do mess up your nerve system so it being capable of blocking off the virus which I think was confirmed to be from space makes decent sense but I think it depends on the drug since I'm 99% sure the zombie virus in walking dead infects the brain mostly

[@jokawild209]

Thank you for this recap

[@ToyokaX]

It's sad that Nick and Travis being killed off essentially killed the vibe for the rest of the show. And the reasons behind their deaths are also a shame; IIRC, Nick was killed off because he didn't like where the show was going, and Travis was killed off because of scheduling issues due to him working on some movies at the time.

[@joeyphillips1181]

John Dorie & Dwight were the best characters on fear.. John Dorie could have easily been in a spinoff or crossed over to the main series

[@joeyphillips1181]

Daniel, Nick & Morgan were pretty good too.. Morgan carried the show for awhile

[@imsomewhatcertain1024]

Realistically, the zombie apocalypse of the TWD universe should’ve been stopped before it even happened. The zombies are slow, they can’t traverse steep terrain too well, and they can’t climb. As “Shaun of the Dead” showed, in a slow-zombie apocalypse, the military should’ve easily overpower the zombies. It would be chaotic at first, some cities and countries could be devastated, but the military should be able to regain control. In the TWD universe, the military dropped their IQ once the zombies started coming. In some scenes of FTWD, at the start of the apocalypse, some soldiers are seemingly incapable of killing zombies; even with an assault rifles. Also, before Los Angeles was fire-bombed, many soldiers abandoned their duties to get back to their families.
