Watching Dead

1111 – Rogue Element

The Walking Dead has entered its final stage. The stage where they’ve said “screw it” and now all bets are off. Should they make an episode starring Eugene in a neo-noire storyline that involves a mystery the audience already knows the answer to and give him a 3.5 minute tantrum monologue at the end of it? Yes they should. Maybe they should also ham-handedly slam some heavy socio-political commentary in there as well? Yes they should. And maybe you want to hear us talk about it? Check out the podcast now to see what we thought.

1110 – New Haunts

It’s a very special Halloween in February episode as we’re treated to the show’s 2nd Festival, Halloween in the Commonwealth. What spooky movies will they be playing in the cinema? How many people will they lose to last-minute projector bulb runs? What’s the most inconsiderate fright that a sheltered population could fill their haunted house with? Find out with us on this week’s podcast!

1107 – Promises Broken

Another pretty good episode from The Walking Dead. Maybe not every aspect, but they brought around the Maggie / Negan relationship well enough that we’re able to look past its rocky start. Maybe the hardest pill to swallow this episode is the delay tactics happening in the commonwealth. There’s a lot of people needing things to happen, asking for those things, and nearly getting those things only for the show to rip them away at the last moment. We know, deep down at your core you’ve always been a show about cheap thrills, but you can do better, The Walking Dead.

Join us for a breakdown of “On the Inside”. A big thank you to Mysteriana for creating the Watching Dead theme music.  Find all…
