Of the two, Sarah Paulsen is the bigger name actress, so you won't see her relegated to the sidelines and playing an interview subject. Still, I agree that it'd be more interesting to see Lily Rabe play the reenactment Shelby Miller.
Paulsen's already played this character (the timid Cordelia Fox from season 3), so

Another season, another story. I was less than enthused after watching last night's episode, which didn't do anything wrong, but also failed to fully get me enthralled.

"Lorenzo James Henrie was recently cast on Marvel’s Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D., which could mean Chris’ days are numbered."

"The hotel doesn’t appear to have any power—the only lights I’ve noticed are the emergency lights. So how does Alicia’s phone still work?"

Great review, but I don't know, Greg does seem pretty grown up. The author admits that a life as a car wash attendant is still a life, but doesn't really see it as a grown up job.
But raising Steven IS Greg's job. He may be a bit of a beach bum, but he has a job that pays, not enough to afford him a house, enough to

Death by Depression? I wonder how she reached that conclusion.
I guess she wasn't going to let him starve, so he'd be waiting in that chair for a long time

Except he did, remember? He was faking it.

When I first heard that this show was set in LA, I was pretty unenthused b/c damnit why does EVERY show have to be set in LA or New York? So while I barely got through Season 1, I was happy to see this show get out of Cali and see how the rest of the world is dealing with the zombie apocalypse.

The Jonestown and Jim Jones reference is thin at best. If it was poisoned communion wine (which seems like a MUCH easier method, but alas no flesh eating symbolism), then I'd agree with you.

I'm conflicted: for the first time this season, I think the episode was pretty good while the review was not, usually it's been the other way around.
I really don't see the justification in the B- as their was plenty to enjoy tonight. I think you're way off in presuming that the Priest and the congregation blame Celia

This is a mediocre series to be sure, but I do find myself enjoying it as it muddles through its paces. The characters, while still staggeringly foolish in some of their decisions, have grown on me. I would call them inept, but once again when they work as a unit they manage to get out of some tough situations

"Or maybe, after abandoning other survivors and cutting Alex and Jake loose, Strand just has too much red in his ledger."

What, no love for Tower of Terror? Not even Phantom of the Megaplex? I so LOVED those ones when I was a kid.

That's very kind.

Did we watch the same show? Whatever. You're entitled to your opinion and I to mine. I don't feel like picking a fight with strangers on the Internet.

What the show needs is separate from what I, specifically, want. I'd settle for some legitimate drama, not this "sulky, and then extemporaneously angry" drama it currently has.
Regardless, there's no denying that Fear needs to stand on its own two feet and set itself apart from TWD if it's to have any genuine

Exactly! And what's more comic book-y than a cyborg being reprogrammed by the enemy agency to fight against the forces of good and his friend/creator?

That maybe true, but both of them seemed to only have tertiary involvement with the defense compared with Cochran and Shapiro.
And while I have great respect for the Innocence Project, Scheck's involvement somehow seems tainted after (as shown in this series) he did so much to discredit viable DNA evidence.
As for

Well, here we are again…
Last season was a mediocre farce that promised one thing and failed to deliver. We were told, more or less, that we'd see the breakdown of society due to the Zombie Virus as it happened (instead of waking up with Rick after civilization had come to an end), but instead we were given the

Yeah, the characterizations are still pretty week, but in Maddy's defense, it was Daniel who left the gate open to the neighborhood and Dr. Exner who put the patients out of it.
Then again, the doctor only did that b/c the facility was compromised, so I guess you 'could' blame that partially on Maddy (though, again, it
