hogso Posted October 11, 2016 Share Posted October 11, 2016 (edited) I actually watched it up to the end of the series. You're right, nothing really did happen, and even the death of one of the 'main' characters was incredibly low key. A waste too given how they were shaping up, would have been a great origin story for a villian in the current TWD timeline. The finale was so memorable I can't even really remember what happened, and I only watched it the other day. Oh...yeah. Spoiler Mexico turns out to be a bit rubbish so most of our guys decide to end their holiday and go back the the good Ol' USA. They've spotted a chopper over there, which is nice. So they take some of their Mexican chums with them, as they figure it'll be pretty chill, but oops, turns out the border force have been unaffected by the zombie apocalypse and shoot all the Mexican's. Trump would approve. I can't see it having too many more series', although some characters are salvageable so they could pop up in TWD. Maybe even the one that 'died'... The current comic story arc is really good btw, it'll transfer to tv in spectacular fashion. Edited October 11, 2016 by hogso Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only strand and nick are the only decent characters, have to agree fear the walking dead is pretty lame Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wainy316 Posted October 11, 2016 Share Posted October 11, 2016 Has anybody seen the 'Right Hand Man' video? 3 minutes of season 7 featuring Rick and Negan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicho Posted October 11, 2016 Share Posted October 11, 2016 First season was great, should have finished in the second or third season with them all getting eaten. The last scene should have been through the eyes of zombie Rick eating someone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fantastic, cant wait. I think based on this I am going to say its Abraham 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Designer1 Posted October 12, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted October 12, 2016 If it's not Glenn, Maggie or Daryl then I think it will lose a huge amount of impact. Abraham is a good character but there's no way his death would be important enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wainy316 Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 I think they should stick with Glenn but I think the fact they already teased his death in the last season might mean it's not the case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm amazed they've been able to keep it quiet all this time, they've done well. They did it by threatening fans with copyright infringement if they even attempted to speculate. That's right. Even **** GUESSING online was being threatened with legal action. **** words removed of the highest order. I hope people walk away in their droves before season 7 after the disdain shown to them in season 6. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sne Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 Hope they go with the story in the comic. Very rarely is it a positive result when series or films stray from the source material. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't read the comic but I know someone who has and they say it has already strayed away from it quite significantly in certain areas and on one occasion very early on they ruined something massive that they can never put right.

Your friend is right. Among other things the whole story around the Governor was very meek. I'm not up to speed completely, but I've read as far as the end of compendium 3 (comic #144) Tv series is around comic #100 or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it will be Abraham or Glenn. It could be Glenn as you kind of hear a woman scream which could be Maggie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm still not over that btw! Then AMC's behaviour during the summer just sealed the deal for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has of course, meant the buzz for the new series is pretty much off the scale. Whether they'll be able to maintain the momentum remains to be seen though (they won't).
