Fear of the Walking Dead is, at times, decidedly schlocky, but this time around, there’s a welcome emphasis on fleshing out the motivations and convictions of a new cast of characters who could become potential adversaries down the line.
There’s a fine line between “calming” and “soporific,” but the new season mostly manages to stay on the right side of it, judging by the first three episodes.

I was having fun, and when I watch it more, I still do. I really like this show.

You won't have to go far into the 90-minute premiere of Fear to catch sight of a dead-eyed face-chewer, but the first two episodes are more about the gradual realization that there's something going around that no one's really equipped to handle.
Fear the Walking Dead is slow and a little bit dull.... Now the good. Fear's opening act is a strong one. There's a nice overall build, too, particularly during the second episode.
Credibility aside, the slow disintegration plays out in satisfyingly tense if formulaic fashion.
Fear the Walking Dead probably is in no danger of becoming and out-and-out flop in its first season. But its opening episode is appreciably less gripping than the 2010 unveiling of the smash hit original.
The series fails so spectacularly on the level of characterization that its occasional grace notes, mostly concerning how catastrophe changes the circuitry of family dynamics, feel accidentally stumbled upon.
Season 1-3 was Amazing, season 4 was not bad but season 5 was Bad, I stopped at 10 episode
Report
Seasons 1-2 are decent, Season 3 is the greatest season in the entire The Walking Dead franchise, but everything after Season 3 is abysmal. If you watch this show then do yourself a favour and consider the final episode of Season 3 to be the series finale... because the show was destroyed after that. It's still unbelievable to me that the show went from such perfection to such mediocrity so quickly.

This is a show that completely failed to live up to its parent show's reputation. It's a dull, boring, and poorly written series that wastes the potential of its premise and characters. The show has been plagued with inconsistent quality, weak villains, irrational characters, nonsensical plot twists, melodrama and cheap tricks. Fear the Walking Dead is a series that deserved to be cancelled in its second season, yet somehow made it to its eighth, losing 90% of its original audience in the process. For anyone interested in this show, be warned that it has nothing to offer but disappointment and frustration. The writers, directors and producers should be ashamed of themselves for being a part of this travesty, having proven themselves to be incompetent and clueless. All TV show watchers should be on the lookout for anything written by David Johnson-McGoldrick, Alex Delyle, Michael Alaimo, Samir Mehta, Nazrin Choudhury and Calaya Michelle Stallworth - the talentless hack writers behind the worst rated episodes of this dumpster fire and whose work should be avoided with extreme prejudice. Fear the Walking Dead is not just a bad spin-off, it's a bad show in general.
