Why is Fear The Walking Dead SO BAD?!

Since Fear The Walking Dead is in the midst of its fifth season, I thought it was time to ask why is Fear The Walking Dead so bad? For the first three seasons of the show, it at least felt like its own entity, but by season five, it is just a Walking Dead outcast reboot. For a show that had/has a ton of potential, it is quite the mediocre product. If Fear is your show, that's great! But, for me, the show just has too many flaws to look over. Make sure to let me know your thoughts on FTWD in the comments. Thanks for watching.

[@datguy3581]

I enjoyed the first 2 seasons despite their flaws. I really liked season 3 and it felt like they found their footing. I was really excited going into season 4. Nick and Madison had a conversation near the end of season 3 which foreshadowed that Nick might kill Madison which would have been cool. I understand that the original Fear show isn’t for everyone but it had its audience who enjoyed it a lot. I feel like the Morgan and Friends’ reboot is for no one though. Part of what made the first 3 season captivating for me was that the characters were all out for themselves and operating in s very morally grey area. The reboot changed all that by making everyone Morgan lite. Everything in the shoe now happens to support Morgan. Seasons 4 and 5 are so bad. Killing off characters is fine but there needs to be a plan. The deaths in the first 3 seasons worked really well but the season 4 deaths were just insulting.

I dropped the walking dead after they changed who negan killed for seemingly no reason. (Loved the comic series right up to the end of it).

[@PromisedTriggeringExcalibait]

Fear started fairly good but continually devolved into trash. The dialogue between characters is clunky and unrealistic which makes it annoying just to watch. The writing in the latest season has some how fallen even farther into Tumblr fan fiction territory on top of everything else. Here's an example, The "story needs to be told" chick finds some black ops chick and throughout the whole episode exchange forced dialogue that doesn't make much sense and contributes little to nothing to the story and pointing guns at one another only to suddenly have a random lesbian make out scene out of nowhere at the end.

[@lapplandkun9273]

[@eduardoalvarez7546]

In my opinion, I started to love fear for the fact that I already what was coming in the original show due to reading the comics. Fears first season started off as pretty much setting plot of the apocalypse which I enjoyed, season 2 did drag but I still enjoyed, season 3 was when they found their footing and it was great. Then in season 4 they just ruined so much by adding Morgan and involving so many plot holes for points we wondered what happened after the dam. Now it’s the Morgan show. The reboot is awful and it is just so unrealistic now as to where the original was more practical.

I thought six was complete garbage for the most part. The episodes with strand were interesting. The only one that actually had me on my toes was alicia in the taxidermy place and then the Teddy/Alicia bit when they ran into Cole. Morgans boring preaching really put me to sleep this one and the finale left me feeling unsatisfied for once with this show. I was like "that's really it...." hoping this one will feature better plots and dialogue.

[@TheGoddon]

@@Avrilhandler I really loved how each episode went soo deeply into a particular character's Psychi. I really adored the whole John, Dakota, Virginia, and Niomi storyline. And goddamn, John's death was a pleasant surprise. I can't get over how Strand almost always walks close towards his redemption, but ignores it on its face every single time. I absolutely admire the writer, whoever it is, that wrote Grace's miscarriage episode. I actually have no complaints for the ending. The fact that the "main-gang" fails to stop a dozen *Nuclear blast* in the TWD universe is just sooo bafflingly fascinating to me. I personally think that the 6th season of FTWD is alone better than the last 7 TWD seasons combined. And the amazing writer that Robert Kirkman is starting to become, I can't wait for the next FTWD season and the Rick Grimes movies.

[@Avrilhandler]

@@TheGoddon Everyone definitely has their own opinions on it. Season 3 was the best out of ftwd to me and the writing has just been lazy the past two seasons. It just feels very repetitive. Teddy could have easily been the villain we needed. I was intrigued by his character but then he died like instantly so that was a bummer. I personally dont care for morgan at all. His fight scenes make me cringe at how unrealistic they look. I feel like this will be strands last season though since coleman is doing so many things outside of ftwd. I hope alycia gets off the show too so her talents can be utilized. She gives a strong screen presence imo. They tease her being this badass zombie slayer and then retreat her character to something insignificant.

Season 3 went downhill the moment they killed off Travis for no reason whatsoever. Then they brought on Troy as a main character instead of capping his sadistic psychopathic ass as soon as humanly possible, which would have been much more realistic. They treated him like a poor damaged kid who just had a bad upbringing and needed support and friends. No, he was a psycho killer, and needed to be put down. Negan and the Governor were both less sociopathic than Troy. The only thing that can explain season 4 and beyond is that the new showrunners must have connections. They couldn't have gotten the job by their ability to make decent television. This is what happens in a society where everybody gets blue ribbons...

[@DabiTodoroki]

I thought it was bad from the beginning, too little zombie action, wooden acting, and bad characterization all around that made it hard for me to even believe something as good as twd could produce something like this...amazing. Amazingly bad. I can’t believe they had numerous opportunities to develop them and just throw it away for lame speeches and emotionless acting. I’ve never seen worse acting than some of the scenes on the show. Killing a character offscreen instead of freaking showing it to us like twd did? Shameful. They did that to two MAIN leads who were important, instead of freaking letting us see their deaths and having time to mourn. Imagine if Sophia had been killed off screen. Imagine if Shane died off screen. Some of the most incredible scenes were powerful in twd because they LET you see that people died. They didn’t hide it. The walkers don’t emerge as often as they should in ftwd and it hurts the sense of danger that was omnipresent in TWD. Walkers are a joke here, sometimes they kill people but mostly characters just brush them off and the worst bit is the bad acting. I wouldn’t mind the corny speeches if they at least...felt something. But like aside from the girl, the guy and the mom, everyone else is so freaking wooden half the time. They don’t sound believable or compelling, they sound like they’re reading from a script. Sometimes, FTWD gets it right, like the astronaut episode or the ranch arc. But like, having a guy recite poetry while a crow eats his brains isn’t serious, it’s hilarious and kills the sadness we should feel. Inconsistent tone holds this show back from being something great. Finally, the worst bit, characters spend endless amounts of time doing nothing, just sitting around and staring. TWD always had something happening. You’d think they were on a vacation. Do something. Where’s the active plot here? At least the first season had a plot. Second season they drift around on a boat, yay. Zombies should NOT be boring. FTWD just...could be so much better but instead it moves like molasses, slow and pondering, with underused and neglected characters, ridiculous plots (water shortage, seriously? This is a zombie show, focus on the zombies more) and sometimes okayish acting. First episode of twd had me reeled in. I never wanted to miss an episode. FTWD...I tried man, I tried and I was so bored, so discouraged. It’s not good. It’s not bad. It’s just disappointingly executed. Nothing hurts worse than seeing something with promise just not live up to its potential. A premise about before the apocalypse should not be dull or uneventful. Bring in more walkers, more danger, more EMOTIONS, and bam. It would be much better. Alas, I stopped in season three and will not return.

Just as Travis started to carry the show as a fan favourite, He died. Just when Nik carries the show, he died. Nik was the only good thing about season 4 and was only in a few episodes.

Its like im watching Z nation at times with Als character😂. There are even some momments i find the actress that plays alycia doesent suit "her new role/character" as well as she did in earlier seasons. The script isnt as engaging as the walking dead and i dont think Morgans actor has the chemistry with the FTWD cast as he did with TWD. First 3 seasons were 🔥 season 4 was kind of pathetic, and what ive seen of season 5 its looking just as depressing as 4.

I like the first three seasons, but after season four, I went off the show. Mainly because the focus shifts onto a new line of characters, who are decent, but kind of deviate from what I liked about the show.

TWD was supposed to be a horror and it's ok however, FEAR must be a comedy because the characters can't be THAT stupid.

100% agree. Sadly, it still hasn’t gotten any better, even years after I made this video. Thanks for the comment!

Wow people saying first 3 seasons are good amazed me! I felt whole series is HUGE BS! Family drama over and over again, while characters doing stupid uninteresting illogical things over and over just so it can create more drama... worse tv show i ever watched.

It definitely was not my favorite show. Thanks for the comment!

@BHowardify u talking how madison died while she can just cut zombie arm behind her and cover herself in zombie blood and live like she did before is a good taste for a tv show? Nothing comes even close to first 3 seasons of WD

[@simbatre4541]

I still watch show but hasnt been same ever since Travis died also i agree adding morgan was stupid but overall travis mad this show so great he a great actor n his presense was so interesting so yeah i mostly gree with u i watch show but its average

[@__4_6_2___]

The main protagonists are sooo trash and cheesy. And madison is the WORST!!, all she does is causing troubles and nick was the only good character and when he died i was like : f** it , im out

[@thisisdra5ticc]

Im telling you fear was great up until Madison and nick died like the show went straight down hill after nick death smh

[@littlebee9325]

Fear is so bad because they dont have Daryl Dixon. haha no honestly I'm in to season 2 and am bored out of my mind. This show does NOT feel like a zombie show, its more like the walking dead is an after thought to all their boring serious moments. I dont care about any of the characters, they just arent real and I dont care about their struggles. I could care less if anyone gets bit.

[@alphasavage8370]

This show is officially a joke only fans in denial watch it , if you want to kinda fix it Bring back madison ALREADY Kill off Morgan and the new cast Make the Clarks the main focus No more guest characters No Jesus type characters wanting to save humanity its unrealistic at this point Better villains

[@iTzCorey]

I have watched TWD all the way up until season 10 and FTWD up to season 6 and i honestly prefer FTWD, i think it depends on what seasons you talk about like if someone asked me which do i prefer TWD seasons 1-2 or FTWD 1-2 i would say TWD but now i prefer FTWD over TWD any day of the week. I don't understand why the fans liked Nick though? he would just throw mards and run off walking with the dead making his family go after him and stuff.....hated Morgan with all his peace talks and i think they realised that nobody liked it as in season 6 he turns into an angry Rick Grimes and TWD season 10 is basically 99.9% talking and based around Daryl and Carol 24.7 it got boring...i would care more about FTWD ending than TWD.

[@kamui4552]

I loved the first 1-3 seasons of FTWD, I get why people think it was boring but I had absolutely no problems with the first 3 seasons EXCEPT for the death of Travis. But I despise 4-6 SO MUCH, I stopped watching after I finished season 4, 4-6 honestly feels like a chore. This show is garbage, I wish they kept Dave Erickson

Yeah, there are better things to spend your time watching.

[@lenoraGrayce]

Season 3 was the best season of FEAR (even better than the Walking Dead was during this same run time). But they fired Dave Erickson when the show had finally hit it’s stride and brought in a couple of nerdy writers from “Once Upon A Time” to turn a gritty and deep show set in the Apocalypse into a cheesy, Sci Fi channel level show with cartoon characters. Then they killed off Nick and Madison, the leads of the show, and brought in Morgan just to give Lenny James his own show. It was such a waste of great potential!!

[@godmode3611]

The whole PADRE concept ruined the show. Travis should have come back. The villians lacked good characters and development overall and were often defeated lame. They didnt know how to kill main characters, overall. Who revises these scripts? How can such bad writing gets funded and executed?

My husband and I are watching in chronological order starting with the Webseries. When we started to watch Fear TWD, man, the Madison actress can’t act. Definitely the same face to all her emotions. Can’t feel anything that comes from her. My favorite character is Nick so far. (we’re on season 2)

They should of have had Morgan be in the show, but elsewhere away from the other characters, so that you had the story of FEAR and the side story of Morgan.

The things that bothers the shit out of me is that they did NOTHING (god I'm so pissed) with the CRM shit. This serie is stupid, make no sense and people never actually dies. The fact they got money to produce it, is such a mistery to me. I just wasted my time for 8 seasons. I've been watching it in fast forward mode, most of the script is going nowhere most of the time

[@thaifromthailand8808]

Horrible writer. They need to fire all the writers. All the characters are broken and you end up hoping that they all die. None of them are pragmatic at all and all have major mental health issues. You don’t even need villains because you want them all to die anyways. No good guys, only good guys is crazy. On top of that, they kill everyone off.

I loved the first season, 2nd season wasn't bad either ....... but after that, it just turned to ..... well, you know what I'm saying. 1 - How can characters dedicate so much time to conversation / hashing up old stuff in the middle of an apocalypse and still expect to be believed?. 2 - The acting is awful, this may be largely down to the quality of the scripts, but regardless, give us something that resembles sincerity. 3 - Why are characters suddenly changing personalities so quickly???? Strand is ludicrous, Morgan is just boring, Madison is pointless and as for Daniel ...... Dwight and Sherry ..... Its at this point I am beginning to think this is written by hormonal teenagers, or for hormonal teenagers, either way, they should re-title the show from FEAR THE WALKING DEAD to BORING THE WALKING DEAD ...... just saying

I'm on season 3 episode 1, and I just couldn't continue. The first 5 episodes of season 1 are literally the worst 5 episodes of any show i've ever seen. It feels like watching a bunch of NPCs walking around. The dialogue is horrible, 2 of the main characters (The mom and her daughter) are literally the worst characters of the entire show. They single handedly ruined the show for me. The mom has no emotions whatsoever it's like watching a cardboard with features. The daughter is so unlikable and so random, one moment she cares for her brother and few seconds later she hates him, she elbowed her stepbrother and almost broke his nose after saving her life for no reason whatsoever and we're supposed to like her? The only reason I still try to fight through the show is because I wanna see Morgan.
