Tales of the Walking Dead Season 1 Review & Episode Ranking

[@DukeJimbob]

I’d like to see a episode of the ferals that Connie dealt with next season on how they end up that way

[@tyler1707]

dude that would be cool!

[@lynncantrell2782]

That would definitely be interesting

[@spongyomega]

That’s a better idea than any of these 6 episodes

[@jackmarshall3255]

The group was turning into that in season 5 but than they met Aaron and they got pulled out of so something must of happened where they switched to be more feral.

[@DukeJimbob]

I wouldn’t say that they were that far gone but get what you’re saying

[@stephenmapes8084]

Would love a backstory of the hitch hiker in clear that Rick and michone didn't pick up. Only thing in two that ever passed me off

[@dawnmccarthy9741]

I Agree I Would Love To Hear More About The Red Backpack Guy!😉

[@unicornmorel405]

I liked La Doña, it was that the morality of the choices you make, how you are susceptible to influences, how you are accountable for your actions. They were all good IMO

[@cas4040]

She said sometimes death is mercy, and her son repeated it. It wasn’t her it was the son that decided to do it. She found out and he said something along the lines of “she didn’t tell anyone, she’s my mother she would die for me”. Something like that. 100% it was the kids. They tried to do a bait and switch on purpose.

[@IJakerzI]

My idea I had for episode 4 that I think would've been really cool is if the Dr was shown giving the documentaries to the CRM for them to show and teach kids in the classroom! So much missed opportunities with that episode.

[@comeoninmycoop]

Since Dee was our favorite, they should do more adjacent stories or directly connected stories.

[@WalkerJoe23]

I appreciate them not connecting every little thing to the main series. It can be different and still be good. Go into these episodes with no expectations and you'll enjoy them so much more.

[@Snoopcoop]

That doesn’t necessarily make them “better” episodes though. I like the first 3 episodes and I didn’t mind the Davon ep but that last episode was just dumb.

[@JewishSeaslug7575]

Just finished binging ur tales reactions, great timing 👌

[@amiegraham946]

My daughter and I met Tom Payne at the Pittsburgh Steel City Com in April. He had his hair long like Jesus, had the whole Jesus look going. I asked if we could possibly see him in a tales episode, and he smiled and hinted that is why his hair was long again. Just this week he cut his hair for a new role, but just maybe he filmed an episode over the past couple months.

[@zunnpy]

La Dona reminded me of this one scary spanish show. The show was about spirits and it would haunt people that have done wrong or are just so dumb and didn't see the red flags. I think that was La Dona episode.

[@crazykarcher]

I think it’s possible that part of the reason this show got such mixed reviews is that AMC set the expectation when they announced the show that there would be more than one prior character on the show, but they only featured one, Dee/Alpha. I remember how my imagination went a little wild when I thought about all the characters I’d love to revisit, and how I was a bit disappointed when I heard there would only be one, although an incredibly exciting one and my favorite villain! Overall I enjoyed the show, especially the first three episodes. My ranking of episodes, best to worst: Dee Blair/Gina Evie/Joe Davon La Dona Amy/Dr. Everett

[@greatidea682]

Love your channel,you guys are very likeable and funny. Would you ever consider reacting to shows like, Penny Dreadful, Vikings,Dead Set (tv mini series 2008) ?

[@blackcorp0001]

Star Wars ... Mandalorian, Bob Fett, Obi Wan, Solo

[@greatidea682]

@@blackcorp0001 yes, I agree

[@johncap6495]

Now the way 2 should have ended. After they blow up the walkers up down below them. They blow up and they look messy despite being alive. To us the audience and the characters in the show. They appeared as two walkers when walking alone down the highway. Now it can be explained fresh walkers ( like Jenner said the you part or in other terms the ego part of the brain is dead) but like Eugene said before we found out they were human( the whispers) the brains not dead. If body parts move and they walk the brains alive and it can learn. So the subconsciously the brain is either thinking your dreaming or the brain trying to rationalize or even it's on denial that they are dead... now u think of season 1 and 2 walkers. Morgan's wife goes home. A walker climbs the fence.. one used a brick, a group sat in a church and smiled at Rick and Shane in the church even.. this can explain walkers in the herd. They gravitate to one another..but they stand with someone they might have known in their past life. Then of course they decay and longer time passes the walker forgets more and more until its like a shell that only attacks and eats. Of course living beings are identified by sound and smell which is why the walker still attacks people of their past. But if there both dead then there's some type of memory and they might even travel next to someone they knew during life. Since they do go towards their homes or jobs. ( One of Rick's partner was a walker too and he went to the station)..but fresh ones stay with others they know and maybe are in denial of death which is why they planned on going to her nephews house. And the reason Jenner and even Milton from Woodberry didnt learn this is because they kept their walkers strapped to stretcher. But Milton did note the sounds would get more aggressive when he said certain things to his test subject or 0layef certain music. AThen episode 4 could been a mini sequel to episode two. The scientist explaining this and furthering the theory of his walker feeding the herd etc. I'm sorry for long comment. I hope people read this let me know what ya think if you read this lol.

[@johncap6495]

Oh Tobias tales story.. And definitely Shane.. I know Josh is with me on that.

[@DarkPhoenixSaga]

What about Daryl before the apocalypse? We still have no idea what he did for a living. I understand Norman Reedus will be busy with his own show. But It'll be nice to see an episode about him.

[@johncap6495]

Hey guys great video like always. Ep 1 like Josh said anything with Terry Crews is great. Good show overall. I just kinda was hoping he was a commando in CRM or the regular army that got killed or over ran. I think overall walking dead wise I rank 3. I hope he returns.

[@karl532]

Terry Crews is a funny dude, but his acting on this show was horrible. AMC did his career a dis - service.

[@johncap6495]

@@karl532 I'd they he should have played Major General Beele's top Commando or be a member of an elite militia team in the CRM.

[@robnewsome2407]

I liked the first and third episode the best, the rest were ok and a couple were just bad. I thought it would be cool if some of these characters could end up at the Commonwealth in the final season. The ppp card doesn't make any sense because I heard it was told that was the original CRM symbol, replaced by the 3 circles but if that's the case, why would Devon have a ppp card and not a CRM symbol card, it was an Easter egg of something that should not have been there. I would have given it a 5 overall

[@beaver6d9]

Dee, La Dona, Dr Everett, Davon, Ground Hog Day, Terry Crews and Olivia Munn.

[@David-xc4we]

6. La Dona (1x06) 5. Davon (1x05) 4. Blair/Gina (1x02) 3. Amy/Dr. Everett (1x04) 2. Evie/Joe (1x01) 1. Dee (1x03)

[@brianhead2709]

My ranking from best to worst ended up being kinda funny and simple: it’s in order, 1 to 6 haha (maybe 1, 3, 2, 4, 5, 6 if I want to skew to the storyline we’re more familiar with)

[@mikeoxheart6173]

I have 2 episode ideas. 1) An episode about a group of soldiers that gets sent out at the start to control the situation. 2) An episode about the woman Rick met outside of the prison (the one who had her husbands head in a bag). She had a pretty cool backstory if i remember correctly... I think she was at an airport when it all started so that would be pretty cool to see.

[@arajnusadamius]

Hm!? I really can't remember this. What episode was it?!

[@mikeoxheart6173]

@@arajnusadamius It was in 4x1 "30 Days Without an Accident.

[@elijolesy]

I think the researcher episode, the noir episode, and the last episode was just to show how the walkers and apocalypse changed humanity and people’s morality. That was the point of the stories and maybe that’s why people didn’t like that episode because there wasn’t a point to the actual story. It was just to show the change in people.

[@blackcorp0001]

Reminded me of a book of short stories by an editor looking for good ideas and new writers

[@unicornmorel405]

AMC has some creative control after 6 that's why it all suffers now. GIMPLE had plans with PPP, Georgie, Lawton, Virginia, was all connected.

[@unicornmorel405]

NO DIFFERENT VERSION. YOU ASSUMED!! ITS NOT CANNON IF YOU DON'T SEE IT. It fit in she didn't follow. When she was earning her skin she met Beta, saw he would be an asset. Took him to gain prestige in group. Then took over after killing Herra.

[@NoahVends]

My rankings 1. Ep 6 2. Ep 5 3. Ep 1 4. Ep 3 5. Ep 4 6. Ep 2 I think the only one that was bad (imo) was ep 2. It just felt so weird and rushed. The characters fell flat for me and it was just overall boring. I think every other episode is good watch

[@DaveyWaveyLT]

My Rankings were: 1) Ep 6 2) Ep 4 3) Ep 3 4) Ep 1 5) Ep 5 6) Ep 2 Overall I loved Tales, hopefully they can do some more to either do more existing characters' backstories or bringing the Tales characters into the bigger shows.

[@mr.goodboi2780]

I agree with you guys on the first 2, I really liked them. I also strongly hated episode 4 so I agreed with you on that. I liked La Dona more than you guys did. It was 50/50 for me. Still interesting enough that I would check out a season 2. If I had to rate them best to worst: 2, 1, 6, 5, 3, 4. I would watch a whole spinoff about Blair and Gina or a miniseries about Alpha tbh.

[@TheSonnyCosta]

I completely agree with Episode 2 as the best!

[@RE-ol5ws]

My ranking: 1. Ep 4 2. Ep 3 3. Ep 1 4. Ep 5 5. Ep 6 6. Ep 2

[@LifeBricks]

Exact same as my ranking!

[@johncap6495]

Yep Jarelle I remember you doing a Dark Fate trailer reaction. Talk about continuity destruction. They kill John FN Connor!!! Franchise killer. Lol

[@WalkerJoe23]

LOVED THE ZOMBIE JESUS'

[@johncap6495]

Episode 6 no words and zero hope

[@johncap6495]

Episode 4 I truly didn't like or understand some the things he was talking about . Now if they said he was sole Penrose survivor, Commonwealth member or CRM of course. Plus the walker that feed the heard ties into a ideas I had for episode 2.

[@tristanversteeg5738]

uhm wasnt episode 4, 35 years into the apocalypse? because the animals are coming back from almost extinction and the walkers slowly turned into their own species, i swear this one is 35 years in

[@dalegend7215]

I enjoyed some episodes but over-all i just wish it was like the web episodes (red machete and the old ones i mean) and deceased characters backstories.

[@unicornmorel405]

Simon was already a leader in the saviors when Negan took over.. Simon killing all the men of Oceanside, is why Negan killed the original leader.. He told this to Gabe, I think or Carl. WATCH THE SHOW DUDES.

[@johncap6495]

Episode 3 I liked. I'd rank walking dead wise number 1.. personally number 2 but I believe we are getting more. People want more which means nothing with AMC. But I read and they made a point to say this, Brooke is definitely alive. Maybe not now. But she's alive as far as we're Dee's story is now.. so she supposedly is coming back for Lydia which spoiler alert we know how that ends. But there's still a story.

[@galileowayne5578]

We need to see how Virgina became Lawton's lider!! Please AMC do it!!

[@ByLJT]

Episode 1, 3, 2, 5, 4 ,6 From best to worst, 4 wasn't terrible to me, I wouldn't mind seeing more of him doing research but its more about the research and not saving a random group, 6 was just a mess of a storyline, 1, 3, and 2 are very close with each other for being the best episode, Terry Crews, Alpha and whispers and then more the start of the apocalypse, 5 was dark and interesting aswell as Davon having a PPP card just wants more from that.

[@somedude165]

I think the show would be better if they followed the same formula as American horror story and have each season be a story. Do a season for alpha, next season on a new character or group, then a season on Abraham or something. It’d give writers more time to flesh out a story and give us more time to get invested and care as viewers. I think they wasted at least 2 or 3 stories that could be a lot better if we had more time to add more substance. Dr. Everett could be one of the better characters in the TWDU if they just found a way to connect him or his research to the outside world.

[@unicornmorel405]

It was the son, the mother helped him cover up. Then killed some herself to protect him

[@johncap6495]

Ranking it's hard 2 and 3.. if 2 ended the way I thoroughly explained below( sorry if I wrote too many comments guys) but 4-6 .bottom 3. If 4 and 5 added some the things I said they may been better. 2 if it has my theory which I think they were trying to convey. 3 I think is setting us up for something bigger cause 'u Brooke comment and Beta is wanted.. And you guys said it It's Terry Crews anything hes in is likeable. It could been little better if Tyrese showed up or Terminist was just starting cause they were on the set at least but maybe geographically no.

[@ashwilliams7302]

I have my very own rational explanation for each episode with weird plotlines since it's in the same universe, so here's my honest ranking of the episodes from worst to best: 4, 1, 2, 5, 6, 3. My overall grade for the season is a 6/10 and i think it's better than World Beyond and Fear Season 5

[@supernova2597]

My ranking: Best to worst - Ep. 2 Ep. 3 Ep. 1 Ep. 6 Ep. 4 Ep. 5 I disliked most of the episodes as they were boring to me and had somewhat annoying characters that just bugged me. I placed episode 2 the highest for me just because I enjoyed the humor and the more comedic approach. Compared to most of the other episodes, it had the most unique characteristics to it and a more unique vibe that I enjoyed. Dee's episode was good as well as a close second. The others...meh

[@mr.goodboi2780]

I feel like Blair and Gina just have main character energy. It feels like it's own thing. It's almost sad they didn't just develop it as a comedic show seperate from the TWDU.

[@JewishSeaslug7575]

Personally ep 2 jus threw me off kinda like the last episode in the season it was jus a little too wacky for me but it had some laughs and cast did a good job

[@johncap6495]

Oh btw I know someone else said it took them 3 times to watch it all the way.. well ironically enough me too. I fell asleep 3 separate times then I honestly watched your reaction video too it. I couldn't and I never get offend like others nowadays but I hated the Jesus part.. I only laughed cause Jesus head when he got on the ground and before he walked upside down.. he looked like Freddy Krueger in Nightmare 3 when Freddy poses the puppet lol

[@horrorfilmscholar]

Eh, Jesuss' walking off the cross was probably the hardest part of the episode if this was a psychological horror or thriller.

[@kellyreece5600]

I was disappointed with these. I want/need MORE real walking dead!

[@schlock159]

I thought this was very dissapointing guys. I loved the Alpha/Dee episode & i really liked the episode with Dr. Everett. BUT i feel like the Alpha episode should have been in season 10 of the original show. ALSO, unless we see Dr. Everett return in Isle Of The Dead or the Rick spin-off, i kind of feel like the whole episode was POINTLESS. I think i'm far more excited for the Maggie & Negan show along with the Rick & Michonne spin-off.

[@johncap6495]

But here it is I'm sure I'll get ripped but Episode 2 was my favorite. It was funny great performances.. I think my ending I came up with would be kinda cool.

[@johncap6495]

Oh I got a question. Its probably not but if another Alpha story is coming since both actors wanna co'e back and fans want it.. the number 3 walker.. Gamma was it with the baby and aron helped and they took as POW... Didnt she have a huge scar and bleach hair? Could it possibly be Brooke that returned and redeemed herself? Didn't she forget who she was? Knowing alpha she PROBALLY would make people forget their true past. Just like Beta would never say who he was.

[@tristanversteeg5738]

episode 5 i think the mother killed them for mercy, and her son got wicked from that and once she died he wanted to finish her work, personally i think if tales gets a season 2, they gotta cut the crap of episodes 2 and 6 and focus more on stories like episode 1 4 and maybe a bit of 5

[@cynthiastarr14]

Maybe davon is related to heath .. there were a few people in that pic. Maybe they were brothers? 🤔

[@ronokoren8101]

I had high hopes for this series but was very disappointed. I would have preferred a series that complimented the current Walking Dead universe like the early webisodes did. This was a nothing more than independent Twilight Zone-like episodes that just did not - for the most part - resonate with me. If I had to rank my satisfaction with them, I would say my favorite was #3 (Dee) and worst was #2 (Blair/Gina). In order: (1) #3 Dee (2) #5 Davon (3) #1 Evie/Joe (4) #4 Amy/Dr. Everette (5) #6 LaDona (6) #2 Blair/Gina

[@hugopedraza5933]

Episode 1-4 were more walkers related. And episodes 5,6 could have been from Tales of Darkside with walkers more an after thought. We need more robot from Terry Crews...

[@RaegisKhan]

If they brought the PPP card up....you'd think they will finally explain it

[@unicornmorel405]

I liked Tales. 2 was my least favorite only because groundhog day hays been played into the ground. But it was reinforcing the idea that they couldn't progress untill they decided who they were going to be. I liked all the rest. I like new people. The world is bigger than our groups. We are trying to build a new world, we need people.People are a resource. Society is the end goal.

[@ZXGAMER22]

episode 1 and 2 the best

[@shaunpaulsen7960]

For the love of me, I cannot understand why people thought Blair in Gina episode is up their. Like the top three or 1, it didn't deserve to be there at all. Only one really did, and that was Alpha. Imo.

[@TheSonnyCosta]

Episode 2,3,4 were the best string of episodes for me, and also go in that best to worst order for me, as well. 5 was boring as hell for a while and 6 & 1 were alright.

[@David-cc9lz]

The P P P card was shown 2 times in the episode

[@rebornreligion]

I think her son was beating them so bad she would kill them sometimes to give mercy

[@paulomiguel7751]

Why didn't Evie and Joe stayed inside that psycho woman's bunker? Just curious XD

[@arajnusadamius]

I asked this myself as well.

[@karl532]

Anybody else feel like they just tried to re-make the cheesy show Goosebumps?? Even the intros are similar. Lol

[@WalkerStalker]

This series was way better than the World Beyond and last seasons Fear, but it was still disappointing. It started off strong but got worse after the Alpha episode.

[@Rockyboyy97]

Overall episodes 1, 3, and 5 were the ones I personally enjoyed and thought were really great. The rest are not good at all to me. Especially episode 6. Too much woods. Basically 4 out of the 6 it was just character’s traveling through the woods.

Hi guys ! 5 for ranking and i do not want a season 2.

[@ramoncarter3121]

please no season 2

[@bobmessier5215]

I enjoyed episode one and the episode three with Alpha. The rest were somewhat disappointing.

[@christiancampbell5961]

I found it was fun to watch tbh episodes 2 and 4 screwed up the show every other episode was good

[@taintedmeat9740]

To me it was disappointing...they should have used veteran walking dead actors in various situations...would have been better.

[@dannybase2433]

2 episodes was okay the rest was very poor won’t waste my time watching that crap again

[@karl532]

Out of all walking dead universe shows, only the main one is good. Surprise, surprise they didn't write it, per se. They followed the writings of Kirkman. Maybe AMC should've hired him to write these shows because they clearly can't write for shit!

[@ivanrasmussen8875]

If they do a season 2, it better be much better than the quality of most of Season 1. Very disappointed and love TWD, but we need some better content.

[@johncap6495]

Episode 5.. kinda didnt like it. But now with the PPP card and killing those kids and french speaking people . And im not sure. Did one those episodes show the orange bag? Anyhow they could have connected them being in France or the final members of Penrose team. Or they killed children, The guy ssid deaths better. Well Padre could came into play. Maybe padre is trying to do experiments seeing if kids born after the fall or not infected. PPP card.. in the family picture, there was 2 guys wearing glasses. The actor and at a glance a guy looked a little like Heath. So maybe it's y he had a ppp card

[@ceeceesyl1097]

My rank from best to worse: 3,1,4 2,5,6..overall 4 of 10. Not impressed with it.

[@theGrouch74]

4/10 for me. Considering what they could have drawn from for these episodes from characters and connections to the multiple shows they've done so far i think they failed pretty poorly. There was hardly any "walking dead" in the series

[@willalexander62]

What’s such a shame is that it could’ve been soooo good.. I wish instead of writing new characters they did the stories of what happened to other characters… Georgie, Walker and Crazy Dog, Tobias, the girl who survived the plane crash, Dr Belshaw when she tried to save her kid and husband, Isobel, Huck and her husband, Heath, campus colony origins, Lt Col Kubleck going from military attaché to stone cold killer.. or even Barca.., Dr Jenner and the rest of tue doctors trying to find a cure, the FTWD kids, CRM origins, Hera vs Alpha …. I mean the list is literally endless

[@unicornmorel405]

There is still all that potential there, though I like new people and showing that the world is MUCH larger than our group

[@LifeBricks]

My worst to best: Ep. 2 Ep. 6 Ep. 5 Ep. 1 Ep. 3 Ep. 4 My biggest problem with the alpha episode was if if wasn’t alpha as the main character it would have been another boring-no action episode. Even as is with alpha I was underwhelmed but Atleast it has credit for connecting to the main show in some capacity

[@mark-s]

Well three episodes I liked 1 , 3 and 6 the other three 2 4 and 5 were awful

[@lynncantrell2782]

Sorry but the only episodes I like was episode 1 and of course I loved Alpha episode. All the others were trash and not at all in the same universe as TWD. They need to bring our beloved characters like Abraham, Bob, the governor and others who would be interested in backstory. The characters of this season was forgettable🤷‍♀️

[@karl532]

This spin off, like all the others, was garbage. Even the Alpha episode was garbage. If you were to replace Alpha and Lydia with 2 characters we didn't know, people would agree. They took advantage of us wanting more Alpha stuff!! Fans, myself included, need to stop giving in and watching these spin offs, stop promoting this shit. Either the writers are horrible at their jobs or they just don't care enough to put an effort in writing these stories.
