This show is so incredibly terrible that it's crossed the metaphorical Rubicon to become entertaining again. Fear is so poorly written that I will not be surprised when, 10 years from now, they inevitably admit that everything after the 4th season was written by AI. The only thing this show has going for it is that they've somehow managed to convince a handful of good to very good actors to participate in this absolute travesty of television. Ruben Blades, Colman Domingo, Kim Dickens, Lennie James, Jenna Elfman, Maggie Grace, Austin Amelio, etc etc etc - there are a lot of good actors involved in this show. It's a shame the writing doesn't live up to their talent because they can really only do so much with what absolute trash they have to work with.
Nothing makes sense anymore - this season takes place 7 (or 8, or 9?) years after the end of season 7 and nobody appears to have aged more than a few months. Because apparently being immersed in a zombie apocalypse for most of your adult life is good for both body and soul. The show thus far appears to be setting up "the next generation" of zombie apocalypse survivors - with Mo, and now "Finch" being the focus of the first couple of episodes. It's too bad almost nothing about any of this makes any sense.
This show is terribly written, terribly paced, and even the special effects seem to have taken a dramatic hit this season, with the severed zombie heads looking *super* fake.
For a solid 4+ years now I've felt like this might be the very worst scripted show I have ever seen and yet I keep watching. Like the most horrific train wreck imaginable, I simply can't turn away. I'm drawn to it like a moth to a flame. This show is so awful that it's compelling me to watch. I'm so enthralled by that I feel it's almost making *me* a zombie, unable to resist watching.
I'm sad that this is, apparently, the final season. This show is so awful I hoped that it would never end.
Oh well. All good things...
