Review: The Walking Dead 8×16, “Wrath”
*Note: I have some thoughts on the Fear the Walking Dead season premiere following this review. Remember when people used to die on The Walking Dead? I’m not talking about random Saviors or folks from...
Review: The Walking Dead 8×14, “Still Gotta Mean Something”
Thanks to a slightly extended episode crowded with characters, The Walking Dead managed to spin its wheels a little more, as we reach the final two episodes of season eight. “Still Gotta Mean Somethin...
