The interesting occurrences from Fear 305

  1. Fresh churned butter! It’s strange to think about how great something as simple as fresh butter could be when there is very little out there. It’s like the cobbler at The Kingdom…that kind of creature comfort can make a huge difference.
  2. Re-using prisoners. While it may not be the same situation from the prison on The Walking Dead, there is something very familiar about watching these walkers in orange jumpsuits fighting against our protagonists. Something more original would have been nice.
  3. ‘Burning in Water, Drowning in Flame’. One of the things you may not want to do after sex is give someone a book about gambling, drinking, and women by Charles Bukowski. Maybe a little pillow talk might be better next time Jake and Alicia decide to have a little fun.
  4. The return of Preacher. This is the week that Preacher has its season 2 premiere. While I was personally unable to get hooked during season 1, it’s great to have another show for comic fans to check out on AMC on a regular basis. But we DO NOT want it between our zombie dramas and Talking Dead
  5. “What do you want?” This is a question that isn’t asked enough in both the apocalypse and the world of the living. Nick has to make a tough decision to stay or go, and whichever he picks will anger either his woman or his family. In the end, he needs to do what he wants and not be pressured by others.
