    All I want is a tiny iota of realism. There are nuclear power plants all over the US that would be blowing up due to lack of maintenance. Even The Last Man on Earth figured that out!

    I used to be bad about it but I finally had to stop and enjoy stuff st face value. Being a gun guy, some stuff is hard to accept but I recognize the reality of filming and that the general public doesn’t give a shit about reloading, mag capacity, etc.

    I dunno. It’s been a shit day at work and I came loose lol

    I liked the last episode, lots of action. Better than watching 40 minutes of 2 characters walking around the forest talking about their feelings.

    I know, this needs to be the last season. It was pretty good the first year.

    Only so much you can do with a zombie apocalypse show no matter how good of a writer you are.

    are you saying it can't be 100% perfect and accurate to how it would really truly be if it happened? like, you're saying they don't have actual real life experiences to write this stuff of for accuracy? that's just disappointing. a show based on such a true story should be more accurate...gahh...

    I'm workin' on it!
    Personally, I don't want any realism. The real world sucks enough as it is. I watch this show because watching the news blows haha. Last Man on Earth was a good show, though.

    I enjoy the show now more as background noise, then I can just read a synopsis of the episode. I know nobody important is going to die so I'm not so much invested as before. It's like the A-Team.
