The Top 10 Beefcake Hunks of Fear the Walking Dead, Season 4

Fear the Walking Dead, Season 4, about the survivors of a zombie apocalypse in California, then Mexico, and now Texas, has been a big disappointment.  First they take the most annoying character on The Walking Dead, Morgan -- who went crazy when his wife died and now spouts pseudo-Asian pacifist wisdom -- and sends him all the way across the continent to Austin, Texas -- 1400 miles, a walk of at least a year.

There he makes three new friends, including:

1. The dimwitted gunslinger John Dorey (Hunk #1: Garret Dillahunt from Raising Hope), who provides comic relief.

2. Althea (Maggie Grace), a former journalist who is documenting the end of the world for future historians, and is probably gay.

 3. Laura, Naomi, or June, a former nurse who can't commit to a name, the love of John Dorey's life.

 After agonizing over whether to stick with them or go on his own, Morgan decides to stick with them (for now), and they end up with the Clark family from the first three seasons, who have settled with some other survivors in a former baseball stadium.

Strand,the gay character, is still around, as selfish and drunken as ever, and even doing a flirtation thing with survivor Cole (Hunk #2: Sebastian Sozzi), but...

The bad guys pick that moment to show up:

The Vultures, traveling scavengers with an endless supply of motorcycles and rvs, led by Melvin (Hunk #3: former teen idol Kevin Zegers).

Naturally, the baseball stadium is going to be destroyed, and everybody is going to die.

Everybody.  Not Strand, but Cole and all of the other stadium survivors and all of the vultures.

Madison, the star of the show since Episode 1, and Nick (Hunk #4: Frank Dillane) my all-time favorite character, who had a gay-subtext bromance with every new guy.

Morgan's new friends survive, and take the reigns as the new stars of the show.

They're scattered all over kingdom come. They spend the next few episodes looking for each other in a completely empty Texas, even though they didn't really have time to bond before everybody started dying.










Morgan falls asleep in the back of a truck in Texas and somehow wakes up in Mississippi (at least 500 miles, a long way to travel in the back of a truck without waking up).  He is at a convenience store that is still apparently running ("take what you need"), where he makes 3 more friends:

1. The wheelchair-bound scavenger Wendell (Hunk #5: Daryl Mitchell).
2. Sarah (Mo Collins), his adopted sister.

3. Jim (Hunk #6: Aaron Stanford), who was a beer-maker before the apocalypse and never stopped, certain that a safe, calorie-filled beverage will eventually be profitable.  More comic relief.

So Morgan and his second group of new friends decide to backtrack to Texas to pick up his first group of friends, and then head on to Virginia.

Where are they finding all this gas?

Meanwhile, back in Texas, June/Laura/Naomi have bonded, and are trying to be better people.  They convince Quinn (Hunk #7: Charles Harrelson) to join them, but before he can, he is murdered by the new Big Bad, the Filthy Woman.

That's as far as I've seen.  Sudden friendships, amazing cross-country treks in an endless supply of gas-filled vehicles (on The Walking Dead, they had to walk), and an annoyingly empty world.

So annoyingly empty that I have to scrounge around for the remaining hunks.

Maybe Ennis, one of the Vultures (Hunk #8: Evan Gamble)?

Unnamed stadium survivor (Hunk #9: Rob Mello)?

Whoever this guy is, who popped up when I tried to search for beefcake photos of Morgan (Lennie James)? (Hunk #10: Not Lennie James).

No bonding, no beefcake.  Just boredom.
