I'd basically rather read the comic first. On that note, I've still never read the Walking Dead either, but I also gave up on that show some seasons back.

TWD comics are far superior than the show, with the exception of the last couple issues of the comics.... which I won't spoil.

I enjoyed the comic series. What man wouldn't want to be "the last" and get to have all the women he wants?

I mean, if I was the Last Man on Earth, I could have Gal Gadot or pretty much any favorite hollywood star or pretty much any woman... lol. I'd honestly still pick the pretty "girl next door" type... And my best lady friend would suddenly be available... lol.

Oh I know what happens there. I've kept up on it through social media and wiki and so on. Most disappointing and abrupt ending ever. I wonder if Kirkman will ever do his "an alien invasion caused the zombie apocalypse" thing....

I imagine that the last man on Earth would be treated more like a zookept science experiment than a king......

Thats probably true.... with Ds in charge, the Last Man would get locked up & probably violently jerked off daily for his swimmers....

#YTheLastMan will not get a second season on FX and while I’m disappointed, I know this extraordinary show that has so much to say, and that says it so well, will find a great new home soon. Looking forward to the next chapter.

If you’re with me, let the world know.

Not a shock.

Love the book but the show is pretty boring and is another generic post apocalyptic show. No need to catch up and finish out the season now.

*Andrew NDB* · 10-18-2021, 09:18 AM

I've been enjoying it. Probably isn't woke enough, and it shows republicans as something other than evil nazis so we can't have that.

*IMJ* · 10-18-2021, 09:41 AM

Nah, it was probably cancelled because the general public probably thinks that it's more timely woke $#!( based on it's premise alone and so no one was watching it.

Yeah, I could see that being so as well. If I already didn't know it was originally a comic from years back well before the crazies hijacked everything, I would 100% believe this was some kind of leftist fantasy brought to TV.

There was an episode of Sliders based on this...

It's sort of sad how this project was in development hell for so long, then when it finally came out, it just comes and goes so quickly.

I really enjoyed the comic, but wasn't in a rush to check out the series. I may eventually, but I guess I feel a little burned when it comes to television adaptations of comics. Some are very good, but most don't click with me.

So its cancellation isn't quite so simple:

And don't forget the classic Roddy Piper film, "Hell Comes To Frogtown"!

Well, in that case there were technically other guys and he was simply the only one left who had active sperm, therefore he was necessary for the survival of the species since every other guy was sterile. And there were giant rubber-suit lizard guys with bazookas.

But otherwise it's the same, more or less.

“Hell Comes To Frogtown” is a classic film! Insane and pure 80’s cheese in every sense! Still not Piper’s best though. That remains “They Live”

*Leo656* · 10-21-2021, 05:00 PM

"They Live" should be required viewing for everyone. Like they should literally teach that thing in Social Studies class.

Oh, wait, no... the entire point of school nowadays is to turn kids into mindless conformist consumer sheep. So that won't work. Bah!

Anyway, more people should watch it regardless.

Agreed! That movie is easily one of my top five favorites of all time! Absolutely brilliant stuff and Piper was a freakin’ gem in it!

Let's not forget Meg Foster. Mrowr.
