Some TV Shows That Could Make Decent Animated Shows


Animated fans there are alot of shows out there and alot of them should get animated shows and I thought that for once i'd do something a little bit different and tell you some of the shows that I think could make at least a semi decent animated show. Please note that some of these shows are currently airing on TV and I might not say which network they should air on but I can guarantee that they all would make decent animated shows.

The Walking Dead


The ratings for this show have been dipping for years but picture this what if as well as the live action version there was a more faithful and possibly more gory animated version. To me that just sounds pure awesome and it could be more faithful because none of the characters would age so it could work plus this is a mega popular franchises so it's shocking to me that no one has thought of this idea heck even an animated spin off would work.

Buffy The Vampire Slayer


Now this is interesting because a pilot for an animated spin off of Buffy The Vampire Slayer does indeed exist but its only four minuets long. That being said tho I honestly think that this show should happen because of the fact that Buffy still to this very day remains popular with both a comic book continuation and comic book reboot going on at the exact time so to me it makes sense to make an animated spin off as well because of the fact that you can do more with animation then you can with live action.

Game Of Thrones


Not gonna lie this show right here was the main reason for me wanting to do this post because I am a huge Game Of Thrones fan i've seen every episode I own all the books heck I even played the terrible console game a few years ago. Now obviously doing another straight adaptation so soon after the TV show has ended just won't work in fact it would be utterly pointless but it could happen in say twenty years from now and then you could include from the forthcoming books and maybe all of the add on books as well so you could go into more detail then the live action show can at this point.

Any Of the Marvel Netflix Shows


This one might be tricky to do just because Disney owns Marvel and if you've seen any of the Marvel Netflix shows then you'll know that they aren't exactly kid friendly. However that being said it would still be nice to get a continuation for any of these shows given the fact that alot of them ended on a cliff hanger but tho if i'm being honest chances of any of these shows getting a continuation is very slim at best but we can always hope and who knows we might get a decent season of The Defenders out of it.

Bewitched


Now this show did get an animated movie spin off called Tabitha and Adam and the Clown Family but I think it would be cool to see this classic comedy get an animated reboot. Like with the Marvel stuff the chances of this getting an animated reboot is pretty slim partly because a live action reboot is currently in development but also because this franchise isn't as popular as it once was so it's not a guaranteed hit.

Breaking Bad


Now I know your all wondering how an animated version of Breaking Bad could work and to that I say look at what I said about Game Of Thrones, Just do this show twenty or so years later or if your really desperate and want to do a different story then why not get working on it right now and pitch it to Sony and maybe get it to air to air on Netflix.

Fear The Walking Dead Season 4 Premier Review


Hello horror and comic book fans i'm here to bring you something new and totally different at least for me anyways a review of the Fear The Walking Dead season 4 premier and how these will work is instead of doing a weekly review I will only review the season premier , mid-season finale , mid-season premier and the season finale and i'm starting it with this episode so no i'm not reviewing the season 8 finale of The Walking Dead.

I sure as heck hope you watch the season 8 finale before you watch this episode because the plot of this episode spoils that one which is why i'm not going to summarize the story because of the fact it does contain major spoilers but I will say that it is a fairly well told story and it does a good job of setting up the season as well as answering some questions left after the season 3 finale.


For a crossover episode there's not that many Fear characters but at the same time i'm not going to spoil some of the surprise appearances nor will I credit the Fear actors that appear because of spoilers so in this episode we have Lennie James as Morgan Jones , Maggie Grace as Althea and Garret Dillahunt as John Dorie. Before you start saying that crediting Lennie is a spoiler he was announced months ago so in my eyes it's not a spoiler and I have to say that the two new characters John and Althea are really well acted and I can see them becoming popular characters if the show doesn't kill them off by the season finale.

For those that are wondering there is a time skip I don't really know how much time has passed since the season 3 finale but now both shows are in the exact same timeline which for me is pretty interesting because it now means that any character could appear on the other show in a moments notice and it would feel totally natural.


When I said this episode spoils the season 8 finale for The Walking Dead I want you all to know that i'm not making that up or exaggerating because pretty much from the first time we see Morgan we know what's happened in the finale plus they talk about the season 8 finale as well so my advice is to watch that episode first and then watch this premier episode do not make the same mistake I did i'm not even sure if I should watch the finale now because I know what's going to happen.

Along with getting three new cast members this episode also sees the debut of new show runners gone is former show runner Dave Erickson and in are Andrew Chambliss and Ian Goldberg who did co-write this episode with now ex walking dead show runner Scott M. Gimple but we will have to wait another week to see what they can truly do as writers and we also got a new location with the show moving it's setting from Mexico to Texas.


There was alot of zombie action in this weeks episode and for me that's a great thing as it gives us a chance to see what the two new characters can do when they are put under that type of situation and all I have to say Al is a freaking badass i'm not giving anything away by saying that but damn girl damn.

The zombies themselves even look pretty good which for this show and this universe is nothing new since the zombies always look really good the makeup on this show always blows me away and this episode was really no different the makeup effects looked phenomenal and I hope that we get to see this level of makeup effects throughout the rest of the season.


Overall this was a solid debut episode it does have a few faults mostly with pacing and giving away the final episode of The Walking Dead but that's really it so this episode gets an 8 out of 10 from moi.
