The interesting stuff from FearTWD 404

  1. The VHS opening credits. The tracking over the screen and grainy texture of the opening shows a colorful storm, perhaps teasing that this episode will have something to do with Al and her need to collect “stories” from the survivors.
  2. Those walkers were pricks. When I saw the walkers covered in needles from the greenhouse, I thought up this great joke about calling them pricks in this review. Then, Cole had to say the line and mess it all up. Darned those FearTWD writers being good at their jobs!
  3. I miss the little stories. Whether it was Red Machete, Flight 462, or other minisodes, I was kind of looking forward to learning more about situations that weren’t always at the forefront of the story. Hopefully, AMC brings some more of them back.

  5. Triple Melt Burrito Box. Hey, I like Taco Bell as much as the next guy, but maybe gory zombie shows aren’t the best place to try to make people hungry. There’s something about flesh-eating monsters and burritos that is a little off-putting.
