Warning: Full spoilers for the double-episode midseason premiere below.
"We keep trying to make her love us. She’s broken."
Back from a long break (a lengthier gap than last year, presumedly, so it could take us all the way up to The Walking Dead's Season 8 premiere on October 22nd), Fear the Walking Dead storms back to TV with a double wide Fall premiere filled with fierce infighting and duplicitous deeds. Not a lot of actual zombies, which seems to be the calling card for this spinoff given the barren(ish) landscape and terrain, but a lot of humans acting panicked and prickly.
There was a lot of good here, in "Minotaur" and "The Diviner," and I still assert that Fear is a better overall show right now than the O.G. Walking Dead (which is batting with an arm tied behind its back being eight years in and all), but there was also a stubborn clunkiness to these two chapters in that you could feel the plot strings being pulled too heavily at times. More so in "Minotaur" when things just seemed obviously designed to happen in such a way that Nick would be forced to give up his secret about killing Otto. Plus, there was no guarantee that telling Troy how his dad died would stop him in his tracks. It could have gone many different ways, most of them probably involving Troy shooting Nick on the spot.
