I feel that really kills the whole vibe and tension in the show. The FAT is just so out of place but also just so unpleasant to watch that you can't really lose yourself or immerse yourself in the fiction because you're faced with this fat reality!

I can't believe producers with this shit. Literally in a world like that, there would be 0 fat people.

They even showed the opening scene where Rick was punching a new hole open in his belt, which we can assume is from him losing weight from the lack of food. The fat doctor and that other fat woman in the pantry ruined the vibe of the show for me.
If I was Rick I would be fucking stoked, dude managed to find an energy generator that doesn't need fuel.
Seriously though, I'm already finding it hard to believe that the survivors can maintain their body weights in an apocalypse with scarce resources, and then they introduce a fat character who somehow manages to hook up with another girl.
I don't read the comics, so I don't know what will happen to her, but given that she's the only medic, I doubt she will die soon in the show.

As much as I love her, Garcia needs to shape up....

At least she's the tech gremlin who actually sits in a dark room all day. That makes sense to cast a fat, 'quirky' character. But having a fat field agent who apparently is very fit... come on that's pathetic!

She's totally fat IRL, she's got the most punchable face.

I truly despise Ginnifer Goodwin for porking up the last couple of years. She used to be really cute and now she looks like Bobby Hill.

Oh man... I googled "Annie funke weight" because I wanted to know and one of the results was about how she used a pill to lose weight. So is how she looks now "skinny Annie funke"?

Fat actors were fine back when the only role they ever got was the token pathetic fatass loser of the group. That's what we call a realistic portrayal. Now that they're getting shoehorned into more and more serious roles, it's really starting to break my suspension of disbelief.

Oh my god! You're right! They're always the token character where it actually fits the character to be fat; like the tech guy, some computer neckbeard or a character that is actually sedentary. I get that! That makes sense to me! But having a fat FBI field agent???? Is that some fat affirmative action hiring or something? It's like the pictures of fat cops we post here. You just can't take them seriously irl, how the fuck are we supposed to take this fat actor's character seriously?

Did you forget how fat cops are for the most part these days?

I miss Chris Farley. He knew what people wanted to see from a fat man.
