The last three episodes have been pretty good. Looks like someone put a boot to the writers asses. They outdo every other episode in this series.

No, I've stuck around since the beginning. I probably wasn't going to bail on it but if it would have ended up getting cancelled I wouldn't have been upset.

Would I lie to you, out of some perverse attempt to bring misery upon you by encouraging you to watch a really crappy show? Does that sound like something I would do? I'll let you ponder that. Actually, in that case watch season 2. There is a reason they won so many Emmy's for it.

So this is back on...Got back from vacation to find 3 episodes on my PVR and thought this thread would be bumped with lots of eager discussion! I guess not. It' still not horrible. Some of the scenario's are totally forced though where character motivations haven't lined up at all with how the characters have been built. I've tried to ignore it, because they are clearly trying to find a way to push the plot forward.

I assume I'm the last one on earth still watching this.

I don't give up easily. They keep trying to shake me, but I will not be shook!

I'm probably of the the few people to make it all the way through Under the Dome as well. This is waaaay better than that.

This is the first show I have given up on that I can remember. I made it a few episodes into the ranch, but I just cant bring myself to watch another episode But I'll watch TWD till it's done.

I'm in the exact same boat.

I tried watching the new episodes and realized I hated every minute of it. I've given up on the show.

Odd, because I still enjoy TWD.

Not so odd. People rag on TWD but it is superior and a darn good show still - it is better than FTWD in every way - writing, acting, production value.
I too have given up on FTWD.
It is just terrible.

Watching a Talking Dead now I've wondered why so many of the actors have British and Aussie accents on TWD and Fear. Maybe they're in other shows, too, and I've never known.

I have given this show a couple chances, going back and catching up on episodes in the hopes it was improving but everytime I do it craps the bed again. I have officially dropped out. Kudos to Fuzz for being able to stick with it.

I'm not sure this is the type of thing I deserve kudos for... "Here lies Fuzz, watched every season of FTWD, and Under the Dome"

Another pretty good episode last night. I like some of the psychological angles they are playing. More interesting than TWD at this point, though this episode still had the ham fisted writing to get to those scenarios. I like where they go, I just don't like how they get there.

And I'm just gonna keep posting good things about this show until y'all jump back in the pool with me!

Never left. Struggled through a bit there but the last 5 episodes from last year were very impressive. This season hasn't started well as those final 5 but has still been pretty good.

Anyone else catch this after TWD? Was not expecting an entire Morgasode...He's not really up there on characters I want to see more of. Hopefully he changes. And I guess this means we just had a huge time jump to catch up to TWD?

Why when you are in a big, quasi-armored do you stop and get out of it in a questionable situation.

At least 2-3 years or maybe more no?

Ya, I had hoped they wouldn't do that...

The last season of FTWD was great. This isn't off to a promising start. Will have to see how a normal episode goes.
