The webisodes were quite good, some nice tie ins to the main season. Fear is a work in progress, they are kinda like testing the water to see if a spin off can work. Saul proved it can work.

The father is possibly the worst actor I have ever seen but the series, so far, is pretty good despite him. One thing I'd say is that why should we fear the non-living people, perhaps a committee should be set up, along with some focus groups, and then get some t-shirts printed and a Zombie Aid single released. Peace be to our non-living compatriots.

I like it, but I'm not sure its very sustainable as a series, before it just becomes the Walking Dead LA.
I quite like the idea of expanding the Walking Dead based on different short series. Although I think they've already 'generally' revealed the cause of the outbreak by pointing out that its not spread by zombies, but inherent in all humans (the zombies spread an infection, but anyone who dies reanimates) - its just really a question of why did they start reanimating. Interestingly, Romero et al never really revealed the source. AMC Walking dead has at least sensibly covered itself from the absurdity of it being spread by bite infection. I think that's why they will never reveal it, the writers said it could ruin the whole show if nobody liked there reason why! To be honest considering its 'zombies' they've done brilliantly to not get carried away, they've kept as realistic as it can be (I know that seems a stupid sentence, considering we are talking zombies!) But its not gone overly ridiculous like in zombie films! Indeed, if I remember rightly Romero put a few 'possible causes' into his movies, but never definitively stated one or the other and presented a case for any of them to be true. Zombie movies work best, when the focus is less on the dead, and more on humanity.
