Hmm... this last episode had such a heavy feel to it.
I know in TWD there is a lot of debate regarding changes and the direction the writers/producers take in the story. But, with Fear, we are seeing how much impact it has when one of the actors decides to make a change. I can't imagine how hard it would be as a writer if you have an entire story laid out and then *poof* one of your main actors decides to leave. There goes your story and you have to completely start over. Sure, you could bring in a new actor and keep the same story, but that doesn't always work out well and could be an even greater risk with the audience.
I do like what they are doing with the new characters they have introduced. Morgan's crossover and the new characters are clearly meant to help fill in the gap that's been made.
It's going to take some time for me to adjust to Nick's death. For me, the show seemed to primarily revolve around Madison, Nick, and Alicia. The dynamic of their family was the primary plot line with Strand and others playing supportive roles. Nick being gone is obviously going to greatly change things and it feels very unfinished at this point since we don't know where Madison is and she is unaware that Nick is gone.
