Dude I've never watched many TWD trailers since I watched it on streaming but WOW season 6 was so deceiving making it look like Rick was aiming at Morgan and threatening him.
It makes going back and looking at all the promotional material really strange since they built that whole storyline through the trailers and marketing. Like why is Rick staring at Morgan like that? 🤣
yeah Facebook literally had a page called The Spoiling Dead Fans. They got so much shit right and so many valuable leaks that AMC threatened to sue the page owner. Or so I heard.
@@mosthated.e.2422 It went way beyond just the comic fans, there were entire communities dedicated to sharing straight up spoilers from filming days of the shows. Photos of scripts the lot.
My favorite misdirection really has to go out to how at the end of Season 8, they teased that Season 9 would be about Rick's group going up against Maggie's new group, and that Daryl would be a double agent on her side. I think that COULD have worked if they hadn't pushed away Andrew Lincoln by killing off Carl. Him leaving the show really ruined that plan and it's a shame. Having a mutiny against Rick as revenge for sparing Negan would've been a very good Arc and would've spiced things up considering how dull Season 9 ended up being.
I wouoldnt call season 9 dull but it relied alot on a couple really good episodes (the calm before, evolution, and what comes after) and the rest werent exactly bad (the one with the daryl vs beta fight was pretty good) but pretty whatever.
BRUH maggie becoming a villain for like a season was something i really hoped we would see in s9, but i guess they pushed it away bc of andrew quitting
@@kuku_na_muniu know like it actually made sense for her character to get pushed that far as well, also it was hard to disagree with either Maggies or Ricks reasonings, would of made for an amazing story arc for all character as we watched them all struggle with choosing sides or trying to keep the peace
2:00 this song hit me like a wall of nostalgia for The Walking Dead. The song is called Serpents, there is another song called Civilian that they play at the end of the episode "18 miles out" after Rick and Shane fight. These two songs give me such a powerful nostalgia for TWD words cannot describe.
Civilian hits me so hard and always had. Now being how the show has called hits me harder. Shane and ricks story being long gone makes it hit harder. Lol I drive by a field on my motorcycle sometimes and listen to that song to recreate the scene by myself lol
@@quartex5450 I totally get that sentiment. I actually have driven to the actual place where it was filmed. It's a simple crossroads but it has meaning now.
The Rick/Morgan Civil War setup in the trailers was honestly so hype. Then it never came to pass. One of the more interesting ones in my opinion was the Season 5 trailer, with the Hunters/Terminites, for some reason, going to DC with Rick and the group and putting aside their differences. Back around that time I knew nothing about what happened in later issues, so I thought it could've been plausible. Then Rick just mercs them in the church lmfao
The season 4 trailer saying that there was a killer might have been a nod to Axel’s original arc. Where he was supposed to be a serial killer. But then they changed it.
I STILL rewatch the seasons 3 & 4 trailers constantly. I love how much they can make you speculate about what’s going to happen during the season. Even now, I love coming up with ideas of how things could have played out if they went the way the trailers led us to believe they were going.
@@connersmith1172 lol, glad I’m not the only one then! I always speculated that season 4 would have a story like the Thomas storyline in the comics based on the trailer for season 4
@@dravenlee5524 I’ve never read the comics but way back in the day I’d watch UA-camrs talk about things that happened in the comics, I know alot of stuff that happened differently in the comic vs the show but not everything like whoever Thomas is in the comic
@@connersmith1172 I’d say the comics are well worth reading then. I think the show has some better characters, but the comics have a better story. And the comics didn’t milk the story dry, like the show did. The comics have a clear beginning, middle and end, while the show has an end in mind clearly with the crm, but they seem too afraid to get to that storyline, because they want to keep making money from the show before they reach the end. But yeah, in the comics, Thomas was one of the prisoners Ricks group finds at the prison and he ends up “taking out” two of Hershel’s daughters for good and scarring Andrea. It was super messed up.
Misdirections eh? The biggest example in my opinion is the "After The Fall" teaser for season 4 of FEAR. They made us think Madison was going to meet Morgan and none of the filters were present. They actually had Kim Dickens come in and do voice over work that wasn't anywhere in the show.
They literally had posters that said “who will rise?” And a poster of a hand sticking out of the water, exactly like the ending of season 3, Just for them to literally have nothing to do with the season
"killing" maddison was so stupid. especially when nick was leaving the show. like why choose to wrtie out a major character whent heyre already forced to write out the main one
This is crazy. I started watching the show on Netflix back when season 4 was about to drop and thats when I started watching it live. I have NEVER seen a single one of these trailers. I have no idea why but I guess I just went into every season completely blind. (except for the last like two seasons I believe) I think this is why my experience watching was so entertaining tbh. But it's funny watching all these trailers now, its literally never something i've thought about.
Also I was really expecting to get more DC scenes in Season 8. Instead all we got was one episode set in one museum. It would've been cool to see the environmental story telling they could've done with the city. Seeing Rick's group go at least to the gates of the White House would've been amazing
I just have to say, I loved every trailer and every season of the show. Maybe there were 3 or 4 episodes I didn’t care for, but overall I think it’s the greatest series of all time
as someone who has also been watching since the near begininng. seeing these comicon trailers drop and hearing my friends, and family's reaction it was incredible.
Damn. I never really processed how much they LIED in those trailers lmao. Been so long since seeing that s4 and s5 trailers that I’m stunned. But idk man, that s7 trailer was great imo.
One of my all time favourite yt channels for sure. You’re so articulate and seem to say everything I’m thinking but more coherent and tied up real nice at the end. Please keep up the good work! (by maybe please doing one of those twd analysis vids on s5e11 The Distance?? Worth a shot)
On the topic of the Season 8 trailer, theres an awesome fan edit of the original trailer that uses a different song, which i think fixes a lot of issues with the original. Here's it is: ua-cam.com/video/ihBlDzHLntA/v-deo.html
Season 9's trailer and season 9 itself definitely made me love TWD again. I watched all through season 7 and 8, but was getting tired of All Out War. Season 9 made me fall in love with the show again, even after Rick was gone.
Great video! Even though season 7 and 8 are the most disliked by many fans I actually really like the All-out War Arc. Re-watching and binging the show I thought 7 was pretty good and 8 was really good! I do understand watching them week-by-week it could seem a little dragged-out especially season 7. But on re-watch I appreciated it alot more
Hey! Ready for this one, me and kids are doing a rewatch for me first for them, just got to Alexandria, noticed the episode where Tyrese dies (S5) was the first off putting/ badly directed (imo) ep in the series for me any thoughts on that? Might not be worth anything just stood out to me.
@thethriftytypewriter okay thats cool really saying episode might not be fair for what caught me up, alot of the artistic cinematography was odd to me. But hey cheers waiting to get off work and watch this video ha
I'll never forgive the season 6 trailer for making me think there would be a civil war storyline between Rick and Morgan... or season 8 for killing Carl.
My imagination was mystical at the time of the Season 4 trailer so I had hoped that Michonne pointing at the Macon part of Macon, Georgia meant we possibly could see Lee and Clementine soon (if I remember correctly, it was after TellTale released)
Thrifty!!! I’m 2 episodes behind on Dead City, so I’ll watch those today. Then, I can come watch your recaps/reviews. Thank you for consistently creating such fun, thoughtful, entertaining content.
it's a shame about the ending of Season 6 and how it just torpedoed their chances to hype up Season 7 themselves. I remember seeing a comment in the post-episode thread for the S6 Finale like "now instead of knowing who died I'll get to find out from some random leak during the season break, that's much better /s" and it's so true. Forget the A List characters, they couldn't even use Sasha, Aaron or Eugene in the promos xD
This is off topic but I have to say this because I love your thoughts and insights of the walking dead. You take the words right out of my mouth but way better than I could ever. If you need to explore a new series… I really hope one day you will consider going over Attack on Titan. I hope you consider because the way you dissect the show, storyline, characters… its all perfect for this show too!
Trailer for Season 4 felt like they were trying to push for "back to the comic book roots" after deviating quite a lot from the original in Season 3. So the "someone's a serial killer" plot from the trailer felt like they were rehashing a story from the comic, when one of the prisoners was revealed to be a serial killer (the show in Season 3 just had him be a regular hot headed criminal who dies in the second episode he appears in). Then the trailer also tried to make you think like there was some kind if war going on at the prison, and Rick is losing it, and some of the characters decide to leave the prison (they had Michonne's joke line "your face is losing a war" cut down to make it "you're losing a war", and then we see Daryl leaving on a bike with a car following saying stuff like someday we'll have to run, or whatever). This whole thing to me reminded again how the conflict with Woodbury went in the comics, when the Governor comes to attack, even though the first attack is repelled, Rick's group feels outnumbered and outgunned and like half of the group just leaves, and most of those who stay then die in Governor's final assault. So maybe they were trying to tease comic fans with stuff like this.
The more normies you bring in the more bullshit you get. Masses and hype can lead everybody to believe anything. AMC was pretty damn sneaky and cocky in the prime days of the show.
So i understand that ftwd became sorta the main series after twd ended.(or when rick got taken out of the main show) for most ftwd became our main. But they seriously need to make a new series or actual focus on one series. After they finish ftwd. Daryl's show and dead city at the same time was kinda a questionable thing to do
Hate to break this to anybody every single shows trailers deceive Their audience I don't care what it is if it's from the overhyped overrated Woke Game of Thrones and the overhyped overrated Woke Last of Us they all deceived the audience in one way or another
I stopped watching mid way season 7 with Daryl being kidnapped and just king ass dragged out boring ass plot lines, I came back when I heard rumors that Carl might die and then stopped watching after that episode, because why? Just why kill off the boy who ends the story in the comics, then I came back when Rick was leaving because Rick is amazing and I was sad to see him go, I stopped caring after he left, because major storylines ahead that I would’ve loved to see him face and overcome were taken over and given to characters that couldn’t deliver what Rick could deliver, it’s weird they finally got a new story writer and even changed the quality of the camera and then he leaves, so yeah they truly destroyed the show
I know you said the first 3 seasons were pretty standard but I would say Season 3 is also deceptive (not as bad as 4-6). It showed scenes of Rick and the Governor as if they were talking to each other but were from separate scenes. They took Rick talking to Tomas at the prison "It's our prison, we spilled blood" and then the Governor talking to Andrea "we're taking back what's ours" and put those together. Also when T DOgg, Daryl and Rick were walking towards Axel and Oscar, they paired that with the Governor walking towards the helicoptor which LOOKED like he was walking towards Rick. They also completely hid the prisoners in the trailer just like they hid the sickness in season 4. However, the overall war with the prison and Woodbury is still there in the trailer. They also hid Merle until the last few seconds. I see why they did it that way though. Rick and the Governor didn't have a scene together until episode 13. The Comic con trailers are usually just the first six eps because they start filming in May and SDCC is always in July. I still love this trailer though. I was so pumped for season 3-6. That tag at the end with Merle was one of the best moments in any of the trailers.
This is a topic I think is really interesting and could be explored in other shows as well. I’ll never forget watching Dexter back in 2008 and the trailer for 3x11 dropped at the end of 3x10. At the end of 3x10 Dexter is kidnapped and thrown in the trunk of a car and the trailer has you thinking f the whole next episode is gonna be him figuring a way out of this situation only for it to be a fake out resolved in the first 2 minutes of the episode.
The Season 5 trailer was a huge misleading viewers that the Termites would join the survivors on the journey to Washington DC to find a cure, and the season 6 trailer made out that Morgan would be a villain and fight against Rick. And there were scenes from the season 7 trailer that straight up weren't in the season, stuff mustve been cut
The closest thing that they did now, was the trailer for dead city, that they put that prisioner guy with a different filter, and made him look like a running /variant walker, that guy has no purpose, so, they didn't need to show him in the trailer, he was irrelevant, but still, amc played dirty
also that intentional nod to Macon GA, at the time of S4 Teltales TWD game was already released, in it they go to Macon, so everywhere was full of Lee in TWD S4
I’m shocked to see how many fans the show lost… and yet we are getting 3 spin offs?! (I didn’t start watching till like a year ago - thanks Netflix!! 😂)
Surprised you didn't mention how in the comics, there in fact IS a serial killer plotline in the prison, which must've reinforced the idea of that being a plotline. Great video, still! As always. :)
something i wish you mentioned in the season 4 trailer is the part where the did a voice over of rick saying "you wont take the prison from us" over footage of the govener implying rick would meet him sooner in the season.
First 3 seasons are some of the best in this universe. The third season is my personal favorite of all time. After that it goes downhill and the show ends up destroyed after 8 episodes with the new showrunners. I really do highly recommend the first 3!
As someone who has only started to watch Twd this year (I’m currently watching season 10) I loved this video, super interesting!! I like the deceptive trailer!! Love your videos!! They are fantastic!
I love how you dive into these episodes and character’s would love to see you make a vid on Red Dead Redemption 2 or Arthur Morgan and his character development. Like you did with the last of us characters and the walking dead Character love your vids 🖤🔥🤟
I always remember each trailer for the walking dead the one which conflused me the most is season 6s trailer it made it look like rick was the villian for no reason at all, in the season morgans just normal no threat at all it was very strange
Great video idea! It's funny you made this because my family and I started a series rewatch a couple months ago and we've watched the trailer before starting each season and I've enjoyed seeing the differences between the trailer and show. The season 5 and 6 trailers especially are pretty funny to watch when you know what happens. I will say that the season 3 trailer does have a bit of misdirection. It makes it seem like Rick and the Governor are facing off at the prison while the Governor has both eyes. Not only do they not meet until he loses the eye but the dialogue Rick says is to Tomas and the other prisoners and not the Governor. Also, just a little nitpick, but Gabriel is in the season 5 trailer right towards the end but it is a very quick shot (like a second long, if that) so he's easy to miss.
Season 4 trailer was the best trailer we ever saw. We were in grade 9 and everyone in my class said walking dead was back in like one week then we watched it that afternoon and it was cool as shit.
They really made season 6 look like rick became some sort of dictator and took alexandria over and that rick and morgan are gonna fight for control of alexandria.
For the season 9 trailer im a comic reader and i thought the whisperers were "variant walkers" when i read it. I didnt like it as a development but when the whisperers were revealed i thought that was one of the most shocking moments in the comic. Variant walkers have no place in TWD comic or show. Thats Of the Dead territory.
I actually watched TWD as it was airing but since I only watched amc when the episodes were actually airing, I was never actually exposed to the trailers. This is hilarious 😂
Dude I've never watched many TWD trailers since I watched it on streaming but WOW season 6 was so deceiving making it look like Rick was aiming at Morgan and threatening him.
It makes going back and looking at all the promotional material really strange since they built that whole storyline through the trailers and marketing. Like why is Rick staring at Morgan like that? 🤣

But they seriously need to make a new series or actual focus on one series. After they finish ftwd. Daryl's show and dead city at the same time was kinda a questionable thing to do
“…i kno-RIICK!…I could stop him…”
Now it makes sense why the terminus thing didn't make sense when I watched years later
Netflix. Lol imagine using netflix, or any other streaming service on that matter😂
Hate to break this to anybody every single shows trailers deceive Their audience I don't care what it is if it's from the overhyped overrated Woke Game of Thrones and the overhyped overrated Woke Last of Us they all deceived the audience in one way or another
Poor bob he was real cool I liked his character until he kept falling down
My biggest question was always why does nobody talk about season 7.
I love the walking dead. I love even every spin off. Your channel is great! ❤❤❤
This is a very innovative video idea, well done Thrifty!
Bro I’ve thought this for years I thought I was the only one who knew this
Yea season 9 was just a sad excuse of saying the decade was ending
what music is used 1:06 - 2:00? Does anyone know?
how do you watch it on netflix is it america only?
I did go to college so i had to pirate it 💀💀
I stopped watching mid way season 7 with Daryl being kidnapped and just king ass dragged out boring ass plot lines, I came back when I heard rumors that Carl might die and then stopped watching after that episode, because why? Just why kill off the boy who ends the story in the comics, then I came back when Rick was leaving because Rick is amazing and I was sad to see him go, I stopped caring after he left, because major storylines ahead that I would’ve loved to see him face and overcome were taken over and given to characters that couldn’t deliver what Rick could deliver, it’s weird they finally got a new story writer and even changed the quality of the camera and then he leaves, so yeah they truly destroyed the show
Season nine the new direction “DOWN”
I know you said the first 3 seasons were pretty standard but I would say Season 3 is also deceptive (not as bad as 4-6). It showed scenes of Rick and the Governor as if they were talking to each other but were from separate scenes. They took Rick talking to Tomas at the prison "It's our prison, we spilled blood" and then the Governor talking to Andrea "we're taking back what's ours" and put those together. Also when T DOgg, Daryl and Rick were walking towards Axel and Oscar, they paired that with the Governor walking towards the helicoptor which LOOKED like he was walking towards Rick. They also completely hid the prisoners in the trailer just like they hid the sickness in season 4. However, the overall war with the prison and Woodbury is still there in the trailer. They also hid Merle until the last few seconds. I see why they did it that way though. Rick and the Governor didn't have a scene together until episode 13. The Comic con trailers are usually just the first six eps because they start filming in May and SDCC is always in July. I still love this trailer though. I was so pumped for season 3-6. That tag at the end with Merle was one of the best moments in any of the trailers.
what is name of the Song in the Intro?
Season 7 trailer sucked!
Hello mate, would love an episode analysis on scar (9x14). Love from Scotland 🏴
This is a topic I think is really interesting and could be explored in other shows as well. I’ll never forget watching Dexter back in 2008 and the trailer for 3x11 dropped at the end of 3x10. At the end of 3x10 Dexter is kidnapped and thrown in the trunk of a car and the trailer has you thinking f the whole next episode is gonna be him figuring a way out of this situation only for it to be a fake out resolved in the first 2 minutes of the episode.
The Season 5 trailer was a huge misleading viewers that the Termites would join the survivors on the journey to Washington DC to find a cure, and the season 6 trailer made out that Morgan would be a villain and fight against Rick. And there were scenes from the season 7 trailer that straight up weren't in the season, stuff mustve been cut
The closest thing that they did now, was the trailer for dead city, that they put that prisioner guy with a different filter, and made him look like a running /variant walker, that guy has no purpose, so, they didn't need to show him in the trailer, he was irrelevant, but still, amc played dirty
I will never forget how ftwd's season 4 A trailer took scenes out of context to make us thing Morgan and Madison were going to meet back then.
also that intentional nod to Macon GA, at the time of S4 Teltales TWD game was already released, in it they go to Macon, so everywhere was full of Lee in TWD S4
I’m shocked to see how many fans the show lost… and yet we are getting 3 spin offs?! (I didn’t start watching till like a year ago - thanks Netflix!! 😂)
Surprised you didn't mention how in the comics, there in fact IS a serial killer plotline in the prison, which must've reinforced the idea of that being a plotline. Great video, still! As always. :)
That ricks last episode’s marketing stunt worked on 2 people because it worked for me to
something i wish you mentioned in the season 4 trailer is the part where the did a voice over of rick saying "you wont take the prison from us" over footage of the govener implying rick would meet him sooner in the season.
I was wondering if you had watched fear and if so would you recommend as people have had very mixed reviews from it
First 3 seasons are some of the best in this universe. The third season is my personal favorite of all time. After that it goes downhill and the show ends up destroyed after 8 episodes with the new showrunners. I really do highly recommend the first 3!
@@TheNickSweat thanks I’ll give it a shot 👍
As someone who has only started to watch Twd this year (I’m currently watching season 10) I loved this video, super interesting!! I like the deceptive trailer!! Love your videos!! They are fantastic!
I love how you dive into these episodes and character’s would love to see you make a vid on Red Dead Redemption 2 or Arthur Morgan and his character development. Like you did with the last of us characters and the walking dead Character love your vids 🖤🔥🤟
I love your channel sm I watch it while I run on the treadmill and time goes by so fast LOL thanks king 💁🏻♀️
I always remember each trailer for the walking dead the one which conflused me the most is season 6s trailer it made it look like rick was the villian for no reason at all, in the season morgans just normal no threat at all it was very strange
Great video idea! It's funny you made this because my family and I started a series rewatch a couple months ago and we've watched the trailer before starting each season and I've enjoyed seeing the differences between the trailer and show. The season 5 and 6 trailers especially are pretty funny to watch when you know what happens.
I will say that the season 3 trailer does have a bit of misdirection. It makes it seem like Rick and the Governor are facing off at the prison while the Governor has both eyes. Not only do they not meet until he loses the eye but the dialogue Rick says is to Tomas and the other prisoners and not the Governor.
Also, just a little nitpick, but Gabriel is in the season 5 trailer right towards the end but it is a very quick shot (like a second long, if that) so he's easy to miss.
Only you can drop a 18 minute video about trailers and I’ll watch every second glues thanks for the twd keep it up👍🏾
Season 4 trailer was the best trailer we ever saw. We were in grade 9 and everyone in my class said walking dead was back in like one week then we watched it that afternoon and it was cool as shit.
They really made season 6 look like rick became some sort of dictator and took alexandria over and that rick and morgan are gonna fight for control of alexandria.
For the season 9 trailer im a comic reader and i thought the whisperers were "variant walkers" when i read it. I didnt like it as a development but when the whisperers were revealed i thought that was one of the most shocking moments in the comic. Variant walkers have no place in TWD comic or show. Thats Of the Dead territory.
I actually watched TWD as it was airing but since I only watched amc when the episodes were actually airing, I was never actually exposed to the trailers. This is hilarious 😂
It was very nice of Gareth to invite Bob to dinner. Too bad the meat was tainted though, it spoiled everything rather quickly.
You should do a full recap of TWD Universe.❤️💪🏻🔥
Gabriel was in the trailer for a split second, the same picture of him on the rock was in the trailer
I am walking deads biggest fan literly ask me anything
How many times does Rick get shot or stabbed through the series?
I never picked up on this deception but wow! Keep on making your videos man, great content!!!
very good video
Love how this is pretty much walking dead channel
gotta love your videos man, i started watching TWD this year, so seeing some of its history really opens my eyes
Great video one of the best I have seen on twd in a long time
That’s the point.. they want mystery to what happens.
