Game of Thrones is up to their third actor with some characters.

Without Rick's actor the series would die however.

I think if Rick had to be removed they can fall back on Daryl/Carol and the others and do reasonably well.

So there's a time jump in the comic? Like it's suddenly a few years later?

They should have done that a couple of seasons ago to explain why Carl was suddenly 3 feet taller

Slowed down audio from the execution:



Another (somewhat thin) theory I've read is that the identity of the victim can be narrowed down to the four people held captive in the van, Daryl, Glenn, Rosita and Michonne. Basically the theory suggests that the 1st person shots are a recurring theme through the episode, and all of them bar the last one (that of the victim looking up at Negan) occur from the perspective of one of the captives inside the van, suggesting that they're all from the POV of the same person.

I won't bother to link it because it was one of those god awful click bait sites that force you to click through several pages and adverts to read the whole article.

It's not Glenn for sure. It could be any of them. They stated they didn't shoot who he killed on Talking Dead.

It's actually an ingenious way to keep it quiet till they start shooting again.

You don't know that.

Glenn is the default choice, absent any evidence to suggest it was someone else.

Does anyone know which channel Fear The Walking Dead airs on for Sky TV? My grandmother wants to watch it.

Just did a quick google search and found this:

Sky customers can watch AMC or AMC HD on the Sky Digital Satellite Platform on channel 192. To be able to watch AMC on Sky you'll need to have the BT Sport Pack on Sky. To get AMC in HD you'll need to have the BT Sport Pack HD on Sky. AMC catch-up content is available to BT TV customers only.


Not sure how accurate that is.

This is what I could find after a quick search(hope it helps)

As far as FtWD the second season is already looking much more interesting than the first from the previews alone.

In regards to the clip I can say with certainty it isnt Glenn because they didn't film anyone getting hit. That's what I was referring to.

As for who it could be it's any male that's not aaron, Rick or carl. Everyone else is possible. But they haven't shot anything for who is dead yet. The only guy who knows who's dead is gimple.

Apparently Norman Reedus already knows too - so I bet a lot of other people do too!

Reedus claimed he did, the others said they didn't. We got three choices: he's lying, the others are all lying, or he's dead. None of which get us closer to an answer!

The show runner has been careful to not lie and so has most of the rest of the cast. So it might be Reedus that's dead then. They go out of their way to make sure they either don't comment or tell the truth. But I guess we'll see.

Reedus has been known to be a troll to the fanbase.

That interview clip didn't seem like a 'troll' attempt, but who knows?

Of course they're lying. Several members of the cast have spoken about how sick they felt reading the script, or how they were late to work for the first time in 6 years because they couldn't sleep, etc.

Its also going to be a bit of clue when a particular actor is not asked to film more scenes for next season.

Leaving the victims identity as a 6 month cliffhanger was monumentally stupid - it is going to be leaked.

Hell, there are claims that the entire plot of Season 6 of Game of Thrones has been leaked. Might be a fake, but its a convincing fake.

Its not stupid if it continues to generate a buzz about the show - and thats whats intended I guess. Also Walking Dead is fond of flashbacks and "ghost" scenes so cast can be called back even if dead.

Warning: image with profanity

Pretty accurate.




Edit: reported my own post to check if its OK to post this with a warning and spoiler tags.

I think we'll know it's Daryl if he shows up for an interview with clean hair.

I'm hoping it's rosita since she's mostly useless. If it's Michone, I think my GF will stop watching and hate the show from that point on.

Rositia is cute - but they like killing the cute ones............

Kill Eugene - make me happy - in fact he is on the only one in that line up I don't like Although i know at leasat one girl who wants the bat to fall hard on Abraham............

Norman Reedus has a show now called....Riding with Norman Reedus....

Meh, many people have projects in the off season. And it's not like shooting time would be huge on a motorcycle ride show. They could probably wrap that in a month.

I'm still inclined toward Eugene. If not Eugene then it's split between Abraham and Glenn with it leaning heavily on Glenn due to Negan's last comment. Darryl is only before Aaron and that's because I figure Aaron is safe since he wouldn't be a gut punch at all.

I still hope Glenn catches the bat. He's the only character I'm not partial to at all.

I was under the impression it was already shot alongside TWD, so wouldn't really have an impact either way.

I'm going with Abraham. Pulls it towards the comics without really losing much. Seeing how pissed people were with Glen getting eaten, I doubt it. But possible.

Can we talk about FTWD? That episode was super slow. We're on a boat. Still on a boat. Dead mom drama was super lame. Also, the girl is shaping up to be a real liability/stupid character.

Also, if that fog was from burning, how did no one smell anything? And why didn't they see the capsized ship and bodies (or a he smoke bank) from a mile away on calm seas?

Glenn is also doing a movie now too. So Reedus's show doesn't mean anything. They've also sold their homes in Georgia. There are red herrings and tricks everywhere. Until it's leaked, we can speculate a ton, and it'll be tons of fun. But I don't think there is any hard proof. Even the counting the victims thing could have the order changed (order suggests Glenn currently), and the audio...I listened to it 5 times. Couldn't hear "Mag-Maggie" in there at all. Somebody was trying really hard to make the argument.

I like Daryl and Glenn quite a bit. The biggest gut punch I'd feel is if one of those two went.
Abraham and Eugene only good together; if you kill off one, make the other follow shortly.
Maggie would die in a single hit, sick as she is; Rick and Carl also safe due to the "eye food" conversation. Rosita, Sasha and Aaron probably safe due to not being loved enough.
Michone well loved, Rick's love interest (a death sentence so far), and she could "take it like a champ" better than most guys.

I quite liked the episode. Bear in mind the boat is likely their home for quite some time (given the work they put into the set for it). That said the Teenage daughter was obviously conflicted but I think something to keep in mind is what she said. "It ended before I knew anything had started". She's completely lost right now. To her everything has gone crazy in the last 36 hours. And as the showrunner pointed out on Talking Dead she's one that was perfectly ready to succeed in the old world but might be one of the slowest to adapt (if she adapts at all) to the new world.

Bearing in mind where they are and that Los Angeles is burning I'm thinking a random bank of smoke isn't something to be remarked on.

For me the characters are developing well. I love Sands and Nick. Both have a lot of character growth coming I feel not to mention the odd connection between them. I found it interesting that Sands told Travis to step to him and then backed down a bit from something he saw in the other character. I just feel like there is only one character I dislike (Travis's son) and 2 that I don't care about (Salazars Daughter & the sister). Everyone else I'm quite happy with.

Im betting on abraham or rosita, mainly because abraham was probably saved from the arrow for a reason, and rosita is probably

But I am also betting on glenn, because, well, I can totally see them doing a huge fake out only to kill him.

So basically I dont know!

Which means they are doing a good job!
