We're back!!! We actually recorded this episode three weeks ago as a Patreon Discovery Season 3 call-in show, but now we bring it to the rest of our listeners. Recorded on February 6, 2021, this version has a few minor audio glitches in it. The audio is taken from Zoom, so the quality isn't quite up to spec, but I don't think you'll really notice a big difference. There are a few sequences where you can tell that the conversation got misaligned a bit, but it's only in a couple of places. We also had some audio interference in a few places as well but most of the recording sounds good otherwise.
Joining Ruthie and me are patrons Laurence Todd (a.k.a. LT from NC, and co-host of The Walking Dead Talk Through), Kim Voegele (co-host of Re-binge DS9), Fred Petrij (a.k.a. Fred from the Netherlands), Geoff Gentry (Geoff XForce11), Jeff Baiocco, and Robert Kaiser. We mostly discuss Discovery Season 3, with a little bit of Lower Decks. We plan to go back to monthly Patreon episodes, so you should start seeing more content coming soon.
This was originally released to our Patreon supporters on February 10th (and this corrected version on February 11th). If you want to listen to it when it comes out, sign up for our Patreon! https://www.patreon.com/brianandruthie for as little as $1/month and you'll get access as soon as they're released AND can participate in call-in shows, like this one!

Like the last episode, we have another split vote. Brian loved it, and Ruthie didn't like it very much.

Sorry about the lateness this episode is in getting to you. Unfortunately, I had to work over the weekend and later into the week, so my editing time was compromised. That said, I got this episode released (mistitled, but I've since fixed it) on our YouTube Channel.

Georgiou's condition worsens and the Discovery computer sends them to a distant planet for a remote chance for a cure. What happens there may surprise you. May surprise you??? I was DUMBFOUNDED!!! For the first time in more than 200 episodes of podcasting, I could not rate this episode!!! It was SO out of left field for me. I did not expect them to go to the Mirror Universe, though, in retrospect, I should have. Opinions were many and spirited for this episode. After re-watching it more than once (I only got to watch it once this week prior to recording), I can tell you that I appreciated the episode a LOT more after the shock of it wore off, but you'll hear me talk about that a lot this week. All in all, I knew it was (mostly) a great episode this week, but I had so many questions about it, I had to defer my rating. Ruthie also had a lot of questions, but she gave it a rating. Going to the Mirror Universe now seems like it's a natural thing to do, given Georgiou's condition, but we questioned its place in the season, and it taking away from the main plot. Next week, I'll bring something up about how it seems like a back door pilot and only placed here because they decided to bring Michelle Yeoh and Georgiou into Season 3.

For this episode 75 of Fear the Walking Dead Talk Through, LT, Kyle and Brian talk through the Season Finale of World Beyond. We had some scheduling and recording issues this week so I had to make some creative editing so it will sound a little different then what you are used to.
This was the end of Season 1 of the TWD spinoff World Beyond. And, well it felt like as viewers, it was more less Walking Dead and more Scooby-Doo. With what we have seen in this universe these kids just didn't seem really in danger or surviving but more like caught in the drama of being..... Dramatic. We do get CRM's master plan regarding Hope and why Lieutenant Colonel Kublek gave the map to Hope and Iris to find their dad but again why was it necessary to wipe out the entirety of the Campus Colony? We also get some insight with their Dad and his distrust about the Military arm of the Civic Republic, Felix has a boyfriend, Will, that we never knew about and they reunite in the end, and Elton finds Percy, and later they find Silas who takes one for the team. Overall it was interesting and some episodes were better than others but overall we don't understand what the whole point is. Guess we will find out in Season 2.
The World Beyond Finale S1E9-10 got a 0.15 in the 18-49 demographic with 618,000 thousand viewers. We had a Talking Dead, but only on the AMC apps and it didn't even make the top 150.

That's right, it's called Ni'Var, and not only do the Vulcans live there but so do the Romulans. It seems the unification of Romulus and Vulcan Spock sought centuries ago happened.
Burnham needs a Qowat Milat, and one comes for her... and it's Gabrielle Burnham??? That's right, the other Red Angel. I don't think there's a single viewer out there that could have predicted that!

For this episode 74 of Fear the Walking Dead Talk Through, LT, Kyle and Brian talk through the Mid-Season Finale Damage From the Inside. Fear the Walking Dead Season 6 Episode 7 was written by Jacob Pinion and directed by Tawnia McKiernan. We also discuss a little bit about World Beyond Episode 8 titled The Sky Is a Graveyard.
So we get from the start Dakota is being escorted to safety by Strand and his Rangers with one of them looking like Virginia's Doppelgänger. We don't know if that was on purpose, or if maybe this actor is Colby Minifie's stunt double. But in any case, something happens and Strand and Ranger Samuels investigate only to come back and everyone is dead and Dakota is missing. Cue, Alicia, and Charlie are just sitting on some outpost, and Strand calling for them to help find the missing girl. Then things get strange but visually was fun to see. The creepy hunting lodge, stuffed animals, and a creepy lone survivor who likes to play dress-up with walkers as a way to keep the living away.
This wasn't the best episode this season and finally getting Alicia some screen time was a welcome sign but seemed a wasted opportunity by the showrunners. For a Mid-Season Finale is really lacked some punch and felt like more of a weak attempt at a B-Horror film. We did get to see Alicia finally reunite with Morgan which was a really great scene. Strand is still sticking to his conman ways and I guess we did get some sort of payoff with the whereabouts of Grace. In the end, with knowing that Covid interrupted their plans and the real Mid-Season finale wasn't finished we just hope the back half, when it returns, pays off.
Please leave your feedback! We will be covering the two hour finale of The Walking Dead World Beyond in it's entirety now that Fear is on hiatius but if you have feedback about Fear's Mid-Season finale we will cover that too! Next time, we'll cover feedback we get for the two hour finale of World Beyond S1E9 The Deepest Cut, and S1E10 In This Life. Get your feedback in by 6 PM Eastern/5 PM Central on Tuesday, December 1, 2020. One of the best ways to submit feedback is on our Facebook group. You can also send us an email at our new email: [email protected] or call our new voicemail at 216-232-6146.
Ratings for S6E7 Damage From the Inside were down from the last episode, S6E6 Bury Her Next to Jasper's Leg. This week, Fear was able to get a 0.26 in the 18-49 demographic, with 1.085 million viewers. World Beyond S1E8 The Sky Is a Graveyard got a 0.15 in the 18-49 demographic with 627,000 thousand viewers. We had a Talking Dead after all this time and it got a 0.04 in the 18-49 with 254,000 thousand viewers.
