Featured review
I am really worried that Season 6 might not happen
This is what happened to Z Nation, another zombie apocalypse show that I enjoyed watching. Z Nation's Season 5 kind of went downhill because the stories became less captivating. Fear TWD's Season 5 is somewhat in the same boat--the stories are starting to be less captivating, less interesting, etc. There are many illogical sequences, and many boring events; I won't belabor it--you've seen the other reviewers' comments.
I'll balance it out by pointing out the positives:
1. The "doing-random-acts-of-kindness" piece at first seemed impractical, because when you're in an apocalypse, your number one goal is your survival, and the survival of your family/friends. Nothing else. However, after thinking about it, what happens during the majority of the time when you're in an apocalypse? You get bored! There's nothing to do. Yes, there are threats that are two-fold: the walkers and the bad people like Governor/Negan/Jessie look-a-like-contest-winner from Toy Story. But after learning the craft of survival, you would be able to mitigate against these threats easily. So what do you do now with the rest of your time? Man, you would be so bored that you need something to do. There is no more 9 to 5 job that will keep you busy; there are no more projects that will enable you to set goals for yourself; that goal of getting promoted is gone. So you gotta do something to pass the time, right? So yeah, these altruistic acts by our heroes seem like the practical thing to do, especially since it's been, what, 9 years since the apocalypse started?
2. I will bring up the concept of "living vicariously" through these heroes. If you look at my review for "The Omega Man" starring Charlton Heston, you'll see the same theme. Have you ever wondered why post-apocalyptic movies/TV shows like The Road Warrior, Planet of the Apes, Fear TWD and TWD, are still being shown? Ever since Rod Serling's The Twilight Zone series from the 60s (which had episodes showing the post-apocalypse), up to now (almost 70 years later), they are still showing these shows. It's because everyone secretly would like to fantasize about being in an apocalypse. Why? Well, think about it. In an apocalypse, you don't have to pay taxes anymore. You don't have responsibilities. You can go to a bar, drink all the alcohol, and not have to pay for it! You can take anything you want from malls, supermarkets, etc. You basically have the freedom that you will not get in the real world. This is why people like post-apocalyptic movies. Because of the fantasy. Viewers can live vicariously through Morgan, Alycia, Rick Grimes, Max Rockatansky, Taylor, and the rest of the heroes, and have that sense of satisfaction of fantasizing about that freedom that we don't have right now, regardless of how boring and less captivating this show has become.
