I know the new villain is going to be scary, ruthless and tough, but it's just a repeat of the governor. I've heard the new guy makes the governor look like a pussy compared to him, but again...same shit. It seems like after the first 2 seasons, the show has focused mostly on people being the problem with the zombies being a secondary thing now. It's almost like the zombies are more of a nuisance now as opposed to an actual threat. I much preferred it back when they were trying to survive. Now, they find a shelter or sanctuary, 5-6 episodes later some bad guys want it, mix in a heard of zombies...because afterall...it's still sort of a zombie show, it falls, they move on to the next one. The hordes of zombies from time to time can be scary for them, but they also now have an army's worth of weapons and ammo....and can STILL just walk away from them. The show needs to do something new. I've been watching since season 3 because it's mindless entertainment that on occasion made me excited. Now, it's almost "well, there's nothing else on, so let's watch that DVRd Walking Dead episode from the other night".

well, in all honesty, it's probably the closest thing that may actually happen if it were to be real. all apocalyptic shows/movies end up having bad asses as leaders; why? they are the ones you follow because you are able to survive. for a while there rick just sliced and diced anything without provocation. ruthless leaders rise to the top in a lawless world. so it's totally believable that these characters are true to form. one of the central themes of the show is, and always has been, "how can rick manage the balance between effective leader and moral human being?".
if they found a safe place to live and have fun, the show would be pretty boring! LOL

I think they should have the zombie "disease" mutate so when one becomes one and are otherwise "healthy" and not ripped to shreds, they are like super zombies. Fast, smarter, stronger...something. It would make the living view the zombies as an actual threat again.

weird, I was JUST thinking this same thing, but my mutation was that shooting them in the head no longer killed them.

Well, I was happy when Lori died b/c she was annoying. And I was thrilled as all get out when Shane bit it. But I felt awful about Andrea...some of the great people in "reality" have to get knocked off. it's the only thing that will move the show forward. And really, there needs to be more humping going on...who wants to die at any minute with no romance happening??? A mutation would be sweet...like Zombies in Znation?
Thank you fellow 10 clubber for saving my ass....again!!!
When Andrea died, I threw a party and everyone was invited. It was the "Thank god we don't have to see Andrea's annoying bitchy face anymore" party! I was a big hit! hahahaha I hated her from day one!
But yeah, there definitely is a lack of "humping". I mean, what are the odds really that you're going to have a group of people in the apocalypse with that many good looking girls? Maybe they are afraid of getting preggo. Though, I guess if you can stockpile an army's worth of guns, you can probably find some condoms somewhere....ha!

I was at that party. I hated Andrea and her bitchiness from day one as well.

Andrea was not likable in the beginning, but I think she redeemed herself later on. I was very sorry to see her go. Blonde women die at the same rate as black men on TWD.
The greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the way it treats its animals. Ghandi
LOL...No Andrea love! Oh well. At first when she wanted to get blown up at the CDC I was like ok...she can go. But then I liked her after that. I can see them doing a sweep of main peeps and bringing some new ones in. I would want Rick, Carl, Judith, Carol and Daryl to stay. If Glenn goes I would feel too bad for Maggie so better she goes with him. Morgan is pissing me off but he was from episode one so if he gets past this all life is precious thing he's be bad ass.
Thank you fellow 10 clubber for saving my ass....again!!!
yeah, the last few episodes were pretty meh. they were trying to push the characters in alexendria on the viewers a bit too much and there is really no one in that community that is really that memorable or interesting. all very disposable in my opinion. but now that they are on the road again, hopefully there will be more focus on the core characters.
maggie has become disposable in my opinion. with her decreased screen time, i wonder if she will be the next core character to get killed off. wouldn't miss her.

Negan and the saviors are nothing like the Governor and his group. Not same at all.
...got a mind full of questions and a teacher in my soul...

Alright...if you say so. The idea of him just doesn't do much for me.
I'm PVRing the Badlands for now. I'm on your side. It playing between TWD and TD has me miffed. But I gotta say, I like the premise and the themes I've seen in Bad(lands). I pretty sure I'll watch Bad binge style. Someone has got to either reprogram Morgan or donate him to organs R us, piece by piece. He has got to be dealt with and soon. I think Carol will die in the next episode...F'n love TWD.
I remember when, yeah. I swore I knew everything, oh yeah.
Did anyone else binge watch the first half of this season?
I'm dying to know what happened after Sam started talking while the group was in the middle of the herd.

I hate the following characters and want them ripped apart by zombies:
Eugene
Gabriel
Carl
Jessie (blondie)
The following can live or die...who the hell cares:
Glenn
Maggie
Sasha
Tara
Rosita
Morgan
Aaron
The following can stay:
Rick (though a few times I've had him in the group above)
Daryl
Michone
Carol
Abraham (yeah, I kind of like that guy)
-EV 8/14/93
Abraham is awesome.
Someone has got to either reprogram Morgan or donate him to organs R us, piece by piece. He has got to be dealt with and soon. I think Carol will die in the next episode...F'n love TWD.
