This season will adapt material from issues #175–193 of the comic book series and focus on the group's encounter with the Commonwealth, a large network of communities that has advanced equipment and almost fifty thousand survivors living in their different settlements.

[Nicky91]

C.Thomas Howell is basically this character

C. Thomas Howell is the real life friend of Michael Cudlitz and was given this role due to his ability to ride a horse at high speed and deliver lines all at once, without needing a stuntman to perform the stunts. One of the conditions C. Thomas Howell proposed that his character have the opportunity to be recurring.

he has taken over this particular role from William Michael deArmon (whom was more also his stunt double, stand in actor when not available for filming), and it is confirmed he will appear in season premiere episodes Acheron Part1 & Acheron Part2

[Toy Soldier]

I’m looking forward to it, we have encountered them already in various ways - Jadis/Anne was selling people to the commonwealth for resources - she was planning to trade Gabriel, Rick, and at one point Negan… then did eventually trade Rick in exchange for her own place in the commonwealth setting up the Rick Grimes movies. It’s implied that they’ve been watching him for a while - every time Rick has seen a helicopter through the series it was them, right back to S1…

Also they’ve encountered them in Fear The Walking Dead - a main character met, helped and eventually left with a Commonwealth helicopter pilot, who also provided a group with a tonne of antibiotics to beat an illness… though it was implied that it was “off the books” and that the commonwealth bosses wouldn’t be happy if they found out.

The group that Eugene’s expedition has run into will most likely be commonwealth-linked, too.

[Toy Soldier]

Oh and the writers confirmed “off show” that Jadis sold Heath to the commonwealth. I have a feeling he might show up in one of the Rick Grimes movies.

[Nicky91]

was last night watching back from season 9, on tv

FOX airs the last two seasons before the premiere of this one which is a nice thing to do, for people to catch up and fresher in people's memory again

[Toy Soldier]

I'm watching S9 too currently . Just got to Rick's departure/the fast-forward to little Ninja Judith.

Got 4 episodes of season 10 left and then I’ll be fully caught up with the show just in time for the final season.

Is Fear the Walking Dead any good?

Patchy. It takes about a season to find its feet, then gets good for a while, then great for a while after Morgan arrived and (spoilerish - not specific story spoilers)

Spoiler:

”The Big Cast Change” - they basically changed the entire cast, only 3 of the original cast remaining)

Although the second half of the most recent season was a little messy. However that may partly be down to filming under Covid restrictions. A lot of shows got a little messy for a while there…

On balance, if you like TWD it’s definitely worth watching, unless you for some reason hated Morgan, as he is essentially the “Rick” of the show from S4 onwards. Yes if you were wondering where Morgan disappeared to in S8 walking dead - the answer is Texas .

A lot of people also disliked many of the S1 characters but even if you do it’s worth carrying on with because, walking dead being walking dead, obviously characters come and go.

[Nicky91]

tomorrow start of final season

[Nicky91]

episode 1 tonight


its a Part 1 immediately, what its about

Spoiler:

Maggie and a small group going to a military base, apparently where she had been at for a while either, Negan must lead the group as well, the ideal mission for him to prove himself, but the residents of the base were all slaughtered by some unknown group, and Eugene/Ezekiel/Yumiko/Princess am i forgetting someone in that group but anyway more interrogation stuff at commonwealth

[Nicky91]

episode 1

quite liked it

Spoiler:

the end, well most boring cliffhanger EVER award, we all know Maggie will survive that, and also Negan not saving her, well lol Maggie herself wouldn't have saved Negan if things were other way around and she freaking well knows that

Daryl of course going after Dog, i think Dog noticed a gap somehow, because he is that smart kinda, and i also do not think they'll kill off another animal, after having gotten many people upset after Shiva's death

Spoiler:

regarding the commonwealth, not sure what to think yet, have a gut feeling you can't trust them, i don't trust that reprocessing thing either

my score for the episode 9.5/10

[Strictly Jake]

I agree Nicky fantastic episode

[Toy Soldier]

I thought it was a good opener. Negan will blatantly come back and save Maggie, because we all know she'll survive, so if he doesn't save her he's screwed. They're just trying to make the audience think he's abandonned her.

If I had to guess - he's found a way to drop down inside the train carriage, and will open the door from the inside and pull her in.

[Niamh.]

Watched the first 2 episodes last night, both were very good. I hope that this last season will be mostly decent episodes as it's the last Season

It's not on Disney+ until Monday I think... it apparently streams early on AMC+ in the US so you can download it early if you're a criminal like Niamh.

Spoiler:

She should have shot the ****er in the head, can't believe she hasn't already after what he did to Glen tbh

also

Spoiler:

I'd be sticking to Daryl and Dog like glue if I were in that Apocalypse

[Niamh.]

and another thing

Spoiler:

How on Earth did she escape those walkers without getting bit, there were at least 6 right on top of her

[Nicky91]

i keep siding with Negan, i agree with him a lot about going further in those tunnels is a bad idea

i mean wanting to get more food is one thing, but that doesn't have to be a suicide mission

[Tony Montana]

Fantastic opener I'm loving the tension between Negan and Maggie. I can't say I blame him for not saving her, if the roles were reversed Maggie would've 100% left him too.
