I haven't even seen a preview on it, I've only seen it talked about in articles I never opened. Purposely doing it that way because I don't want to go into it with any real expectation. Didn't even know it was supposed to come on today.

With my face against the floor I can’t see who knocked me out of the way. I don’t want to get back up but I have to so it might as well be today. Nothing appeals to me no one feels like me, I’m too busy being calm to disappear. I’m in no shape to be alone contrary to the shit that you might hear. You can't wake up, this is not a dream. You're part of a machine, you are not a human being With your face all made up, living on a screen. Low on self esteem, so you run on gasoline

Yeah, I'm looking forward to it. Television ads aren't too revealing anyway but I expect it will be a lot like the Walking Dead. Same creators, different group of characters. Should be a good time.

Kinda disappointed with it, even with no expectation. If they carry on with the pace they've set so far though, I doubt I'll enjoy it as much as I hoped. Every new season of walking dead just seems to kinda drag along with a bunch of drama and bullshit and only starts getting good like halfway in.
It's not without promise. Even the first episode of walking dead to me was pretty damn boring. To early to make any kind of rational conclusion.

Yeah it really didn't move along I guess that why they didn't hardly talk about it on Talking Dead It was slow I'll keep watching I kept it up with Better Call Saul & it ended up being somewhat worth it

so Fear the Walking Dead has nothing to do with The Walking Dead other than sharing the same network and some writers/producers? (i never watched the walking dead)
ive seen commercials on tv and assumed it was like a prequel to the walking dead

To my understanding, it is just a prequel. I haven't read a lot about it though.

FTWD has a completely different character set using more ordinary people like teachers who don't as easily adapt to the new dynamic. AFAIK they have no idea what's going on, and overall seems like a way to use the fame of TWD to slap together another drama. This new series is something that would take a few seasons to develop in the same way it's parent series has, but it might never because who really needs two of the same show? IDK, it seems like a good idea but everything I read sounds terrible.
Also it's not supposed to really be a prequel but a companion series set slightly before the other one. Prequels explain things and tie up loose ends, this show is just trying to be a new show.

man AMC or whatever network it is wears the shit out of their shows.....i watched all of breaking bad on netflix and didnt watch most of the last season because i thought it went to shit - didnt watch any of better call saul because of the horrible last season of breaking bad
now they are making a prequel to the walking dead? that sounds disastrous especially considering the things i heard about the walking dead just dragging on, same shit different episode....how much can you really do with a zombie themed series that hasnt already been done by someone else or even done by themselves in previous episodes?

I don't plan on watching it at first. I will see how it plans out. Did not really strike my interest of the bat.
