The Walking Dead Fan Edits: “The Killer Within” and “Made to Suffer”
Thanks to Liverdad for commissioning this podcast. It’s outside of our wheelhouse when it comes to commissions, as this time we were tasked with covering the commissioner’s own project, which is a pair of feature-length movies constructed from the first 10 or so episodes of season 3 of The Walking Dead.
Turns out there was a lot of fluff in that season because what he came up with after chopping nearly 7 hours off the runtime was not only more exciting but more cohesive as well. Join us for the podcast where we go over the details of what he changed that made it work so much better as well as our nostalgic observations on seeing season 3 again in a new light.
See the show notes for links to the fan edit.

Watching Dead - A Walking Dead Podcast - 915 – The Calm Before
This week’s episode, titled “The Calm Before”, is anything but. Ezekiel’s trade fair is finally upon us and it’s one for the ages. We’re gratified to see that nearly everything we predicted for this fair was right on the money. The super bus doesn’t get much use but hey, there’s a dunk tank! A trade fair doesn’t mean this episode is a paper tiger though. The major cast shakeup proves that it’s also got teeth. Join us for an extended discussion before the inevitable “storm”.
Watching Dead - A Walking Dead Podcast - 914 – Scars
It’s a big one this week. We finally get to see why Michonne is so hell-bent on keeping Alexandria isolated from the rest of the world, and it involves the murder of a bunch of children. Don’t worry, it’s tastefully done. More tasteful even, than when Jackie Chan kicked those kid asses in The Karate Kid remake.

Watching Dead - A Walking Dead Podcast - 912 – Guardians
The council is calling for Alexandria to participate in the trade fair but Michonne is still blocking it, and now Aaron’s on her side. Maybe that will change once she has a chat with Negan and Judith? Henry tries to rescue Lydia and ends up needing a little rescuing himself.
