Warning: Full spoilers for the episode below.
I was all prepared to simply label "Blood in the Streets" as the best Season 2 episode of Fear the Walking Dead so far. But really, thinking back to the show's shortened first season, this would be the best episode the show's ever done to date. Not that the story wasn't built upon a bad character choice (Alicia being too trusting over the radio back in the premiere), but it was a choice made a few episodes back. And the crisis this week didn't really leave room for our heroes being inept. Bottom line: They had to rise to the occasion. They had to be clever and form a united front. And the show was better for it.
I suggested back at the very top of the season that this show needed more unifying horrors to help our ragtag band of survivors band together more. The more people shuffled off on their own and meandered about under dark clouds of zompocalypse ennui, the more the series chose to have them make bad, self-destructive choices. There needed to be a catalyst to help them all gel as a team. And walker attacks weren't exactly doing it. Though last week's beachfront stand-off did work in some respect.
