    I agree on flashbacks. When you have skilled people doing them it can make for an excellent story. HBO had a miniseries a couple of years ago, "Night of," that was largely based on flashbacks in determining if the guy was guilty of the crime and what happened etc. It was a pretty ordinary story, but their use of the flashbacks made it compelling.

    I think too that there's a segment of the Fear audience that is a little irritated after investing 3 seasons in the show and watching it now and everything has changed so drastically. Coming back to Fear after only watching Season 1 previously, it works for me, but I can understand why some are bothered.

    I don't believe they'll have both of Madison/Naomi dead, but I still think there is a chance one is gone. The Naomi character could be used as a way of changing John, and maybe they'll choose to kill her off to do that.

    My money though at this point is that they're both alive. They probably just escaped in another direction like we had back at the prison in Season 4 of TWD.

    Yeah, I can't see bringing someone as famous as Jenna Elfman just to kill her off so quick.

    If Naomi/Laura is alive and no one actually saw her die, that was kinda cruel to tell John she's dead with very little details lol.

    Oh I didn't see that!

    Yeah it seems they are so set on revenge, that they assume he'll want revenge too. When maybe telling him she "could" be alive may have motivated him more to go see about the vultures.

    That's why I was sure to include it. I know you didn't watch. :)

    The major changes from season 3 to 4 on Fear are a PLUS to me. (1) These changes come after a major time shift which makes them tenable, IMO. (2) Part of the problem with TWD and Fear is a lack of change or seasons that get in a rut. This gets Fear out of a rut.

    My major like of TWD and Fear is the how-do-we-survive-from-day-to-day aspect of the apocalypse, the living versus the walkers. I suppose this will be problematic for me as these series go longer and settling down in one place is necessary to survive.

    DISLIKE!!! Just tell the story in chronological order. Shits weak, trying to bring "cinematography" and "art" to a zombie show... Either use flashbacks in AN episode to tell the backstory of a character, or don't. Having an entire season shown out of order is off-puting and annoying to follow.
