This show is a bit nuts. It likes to kick its viewers in the face.
Its title may be a double reference--the walkers, and the survivors who will soon be walkers.
As an existential study, it asks several questions: what is humanity? What is decency? What would you do? How could you protect your loved ones and friends? How do we mourn list loved ones? What is civilization? Can man face anhillation and win, or will facing the monster turn him in to a monster?
Or it just might be a show about whacking walkers, but I don't think so...

Some dude asked me if I watched The Walking Dead. I think my reply was "Naw, I'm not really into shows about zombies."
Then he actually says to me,...... "It's not really about zombies. The show is about the people,..... who aren't zombies."
Great show. I'd recommend it to anyone. You should start from the beginning though.
I wrote about this a week ago but for some reason it didn't post. I was talking about the show at work and co-worker asked about it. 65ish woman. She started watching it on my recommendation and became a huge fan. She has since retired but still comes in and we talk about the show. She was in the other day before the season finale and was so worried about who might not survive. She had heard who was going to die in the comics. It was actually kind of funny.
That's like dangling an Opus X beyond my reach. Not right!
There's a thousand articles with theories as to who it might have been. The show doesn't always follow the comic, but there is a lot of info about the comic out there. Use your google machine. I don't want to post any spoilers.

Just finished the last couple episodes of Fear The Walking Dead. The first season was a bit boring in an action sense but interesting in the sense of watching civilization crumble. The second season has been pretty good in my opinion.

I remember the previews for the show when it was first coming out. I thought, "That show looks really really, stupid...Zombies, really? Lame..."
So for the first three seasons, I didn't watch it. Then, I got this thing called Netflix. And after hearing all my buddies constantly rave about the show, I decided to try episode 1 to see what all the hype is about. Lets just say I finished 3 seasons in a week LOL.....
Next to Breaking Bad and SOA, my favorite show hands down. I absolutely hate being all caught up and having to wait through the off season for more
How do you like my profile pic Taborski? @matkn293
Game of thrones and vikings are my top 2 but walking dead is probably 3

Same here. I think it was in the third season when I started watching. From the beginning, of course. Caught up in no time. Now a slow (character building) episode really stands out because you have to wait an entire week for the next one. I hardly noticed when I watched six episodes at a time. Loved Breaking Bad and SOA has been on my queue for a while now.
Barely turned on my satellite for a month since I got HBONow and there's already three new episodes of Fear the Walking Dead on my DVR!? Alrighty then. Didn't even know the new season started yet.

Probably the best, and funniest, scene from this season...
