Also besides Season 2 to binge watch, I also have Season 3 to watch also.

are both Seasons 2 and 3 good to watch through?

I thought season 2 was better than season 1, but I don't think either was any good.

I watched the show because I liked The Walking Dead. I did not
really like Fear The Walking Dead and ended up dropping it. Then
when I ran out of things to watch I went back and watched season
4 the one that started out with Morgan back in Georgia or Virginia
or wherever Alexandria, Hilltop and the Kingdom were.

I liked the combination of Morgan and Althea/Maggie Grace. S4 was
good, S5 seems not as good. I hope they can pick the writing back
up in S6, if there is a S6.

I just could not stand that drug addict son, though I thought Kim
Dickens, the mom, was great.

Season 1 - awful
Season 2 - fun purely because of the boat

The show should have been about the boat. That would have been a fun gimmick. Hit the towns and cities along the coast, go through the Panama canal, head back up the east coast of Central America, then aim for New Orleans

This was exactly my thoughts!

Sadly no search function on here and my own attempts have failed to find my historic thread about this from the old imdb threads.

However I likened it to the Love Boat - Every episode should have featured them pulling into port somewhere and sorting out some couple's issues while fighting off the local zombie problem (A-Team style) before Captain Strand called time on the whole excursion and they sailed off again for next week's adventure.

This actually sounds interesting. I would tune in for this.

Of course, the couple's issues would likely always be due to the inability or reluctance of the characters to convey the most basic of information verbally, and then doing something completely out of character, followed by an action so dumb that no normal human being would ever consider it. Only then would it be worthy of the TWD universe.

Ha ha, indeed - sounds about right.

Unfortunately bailed on this show after that episode they reached the border crossing point. Likewise bailed on TWD some time after the magic dumpster episode.

Real shame - used to be really invested / looked forward to these shows but I just gave up on them. They wore me down in the end!

season 3 is the best and part of season 6, the last two episodes have been good.
