The biggest compliment I can give to Fear the Walking Dead is that it likes to switch things up. It tries out new storytelling mechanics, more so than The Walking Dead. But is that really a compliment? I'm not so sure.
Based on the three episodes of the season provided for review, at least, Fear the Walking Dead is now a surprisingly fun anthology of short, Western-inspired stories.
Fear the Walking Dead has flirted with Western elements before, but season 6 is completely Western in tone and scope, and it works, turning out the show's best season in a while.
Fear the Walking Dead opened its sixth season strong with a violent, hyper-focused Morgan "rebirth" story that got our crossover champ back in the (literal) saddle - and with a whole new look, purpose, and weapon.
I'm not going to count my chickens or anything, because Fear has delivered decent episodes in the past only to devolve once again, but this week's Morgan-centered episode was Fear at its best.
I will hold out hope, however fragile, that Season 6 will continue to be as good as the season premiere. I worry that I'm judging it too much as a comparison to the last two seasons which set such absurdly low bars for quality.
