Watching Dead - A Walking Dead Podcast - 1103 – Hunted
The Walking Dead fares a little better this week as everybody runs from the reapers and we get a small morsel of horse hope.
Invincible S01E01 & S01E08
Thanks to Brian, we’ve got another commission this week. It’s the first and last episodes of Invincible season 1.

If you’ve seen any boxing movie ever made, you’ve seen some portion of this movie, as it borrows every trope you can think of. It does manage to deliver the emotional punches though, due mostly to the excellent cast.
Watching Dead - A Walking Dead Podcast - 1102 – Acheron: Part II
The working title for this episode was allegedly “Garbage In, Garbage Out”, which might have been more suitable given what we thought of the episode.
