An exact date has been set for Norman Reedus last day on The Walking Dead. The date is April 1st…April Fools!

If Norman Reedus were really leaving, I wouldn’t be writing this, I’d be in the corner crying.

i wouldnt be surprised to start seeing a lot more of the main cast start dying off.  as popular as TWD is after 6 seasons, they've kinda explored every aspect of post apocalyptic life including 2 separate "towns" they've lived comfortably in for a spell (if you wanna consider the prison one).

IMHO Fear the walking dead has a whole lot more upside and possibilities to it because the moment the outbreak happens and how the world first reacts to it sweeping over.  sooo many possibilities of initial survival attempts to be had.  that might be where the writers start focusing their minds after this season or next

Now that's funny and also sad that they won't even come close to that goal

I read it as a joke. 

Not impressed with Fear TWD. Hopefully it improves. Just seemed like a pale imitation of the original without showing us anything new. 

While I agree TWD is far better the FTWD, I did like how the zombies slowly start creeping in before mass spread and ppl are caugt off guard. They could use this opportunity to explain what caused it before it turns into TWD v2.0 that missed that boat at the CDC in atlanta in season 1 before the world basically died

Although in real life im convinced the zombie apocalypse will happen but thru pharmaceuticals and not some virus or biochemical warfare. One of these days the never ending need to rejunvinate and revive dead cells/hair/tissue will produce a funky batch that will go horribly wrong

FTWD is just bad tv so far to me. In half a season of eps they are full on into Zombieville.

Yes this is my issue.  I was really looking forward to seeing a slow development and a dissent into chaos.  I wanted to see more of the fight against the virus and how it impacted the government.  Instead, things escalated rather quickly and its basically the first season of TWD now.  They promised to show us something new but didnt.

Yeah they definitely rushed it after the first episode or 2, but doesnt seem like it got the same creative push TWD did, as I believe FTWD was just a web thing to start. Its too bad had potential

Well fuller house is pretty meh, the whole first seasons out now. Watched thd first episode and one of few bright spots was the rack on steph tanner lol

Not sure what you are talking about.

I might have to check that out. The show I mean. 

I ended up binge watching the whole season, it gets a little better from ep. 3 and on with some more adult humor between the grown ups, but very family channel-ish when the kids are involved. Ill admit they played the nostalgia nicely, and itll likely get another season or 2 imo

Alot of my fb feeds have had ppl posting about it, so I wont be surprised if rating are good for the show either

What's the deal with the English accent? Does the actress actually have one now or is it a gimmick for the show? Id think it would be rather annoying for her to pull off constantly. 

Just part of the episode, she drops it after a few lines

I watched like, 10 minutes with my wife and felt like gagging.  I didn't laugh once and it made me sad to see how fat Bob Saget got, not to mention he doesn't seem to even be able to speak properly during some of his lines.  Although John Stamos and Lori Laughlin looked like they barely aged.  And Candice Cameron is hot, but not enough to keep my attention to actually watch this..."show".  All the reviews I've read state that the show isn't very good, but I'm sure the regular viewer won't have the same verdict.  My wife insists on watching and I don't know why, considering that I barely ever hear her laugh.  But hey, if you're enjoying it, all the power to you.

I would honestly say try to stomach or even skip the first 2 episodes, the show does get better from ep 3 and on,  as it's more strictly focused on DJ, Stephanie and Kimmy (the new Danny, Jesse and Joey. )  the kick off to the show was pretty lame as it was more of a hey we're back, remember us!? but as it gets past that it gets better, like worlds better in that regard.  The humor with it all is pretty up to date, and more mature when it involves just the adults, but even at times with the kids, one example is DJ's oldest kid in one episode says he was exhausted from being up all night erupting his volcano... and when he actually pulls out a model volcano, steph is like Oh I thought you meant you were... nevermind

 

Dont be mistaken though, its got plenty of cheese and most scenes with the kids are family channel worthy, but its still alot better then the original full house imo

Only saw episode 1 but ill try the others. So far the chokes are awful and wedged into the story with the grace of a jackhammer. But the cast is so charming. 

and as far as child actors go, DJ, Steph and Kimmy all turned out really attractive and pretty decent actors. 

I agree Bob Saget is the most disappointing. I don't care that he's paunchy, he is 55 years old of whatever but he seems like he forgot how to act. Years of doing stand up I guess. And seemed to have a perpetual grin on his face. 

I hate the launch track. Lame joke = uproarious laughter. But I realise that was the thing back then 

ive actially heard there is more backlash due to sexual innuendo and adult jokes. People complaining they can't watch it with their kids.

Well if you saw the TV movie then Saget has not changed.

Yeah, I think I'll just pass. I have no interest in this show at all. 

For what it is its not that bad.

I keep wondering how the hell Macy Gray keeps getting spot appearances in tv and movies.  was watching training day the other day for the millionth time, and she was in that,  spider man,  fuller house...  shes a good singer, i suppose even though i find her voice irritating, but man for a 1 hit wonder she sure has some good contacts to keep her career alive out there

Training Day was the height of her fame, wasnt it?  And I think Fuller House is sort of retro.

Since its on Netflix perhaps they can get more adult.  Like they go out drinking and Stephanie wakes up in bed with a naked Kimmy and they spend the episode trying to figure out if they had sex.  The life lesson that DJ imparts on her sister is not to drink that much and even though they didnt do it, Steph admits if she did like girls, Kimmy would be pretty cool at which time Kimmy plants a passionate kiss on her and says 'hey, you never know'.  Fade to black.

 

Id be down with that, throw in a little rebecca in there...ooooh yeah lol

Kimmy?  Really!?!?  Bleh.
