THE WALKING DEAD...and all things zombie

Anyone else still watching?

I completely forgot about part 2 of the season. I was like you, convinced I should see it through to the end.  Been watching since the very beginning, but just can’t get into it anymore. Especially since it doesn’t sound like they have an end in mind with the spinoffs and movies planned.
Kind of a shame they let such a good series dwindle away until no one cares anymore, they should of have a proper ending 2 or 3 seasons ago

I'm still hanging in there, like others have said - still some really good eps to be had but not consistent... 
This week was pretty good tho - I thought Jerry was a  goner!!!! 
I'll ride it out to the end I guess??

Riding it out to the end but it really is unwatchable.

I'm wondering how many more times that a person can go rogue and endanger the group?  They keep on using the same model for the storyline.

Why people aren't actually rebuilding is still driving me nuts.

I honesty thought they shut this turd factory down a few months ago.

They need to.

There is an off shoot w the kids or whatever it is and I won't be wasting my time with it because they'll end up ruining it too.

The show forgets what got people watching in the first place and that is the zombies.  I don't care about a characters development and how they progress in the damn apocalypse.  Kill the zombies and try and find a cure.

Sorry to be "that guy" gave up years ago on this show. I would tell anyone still holding onto the show to just give up and read the whole comic ( comic ended last year so you can read the whole run )

Whisper story line much better , in fact the whole thing is way better. Also it wraps up the story in the best way possible.

If you have not read the comic you will love it , going back to the governor , the comic version of the governor makes the TV show governor seem like a saint.

I actually stopped reading the comic right at the governor point because I didn't want to ruin the show for me .  The comic was very well written but so was the show up to that point.

There is no doubt that the comic is by far superior to the show and Kirkman should be embarrassed to have his name attached to the tv show now.

Stopped a number of seasons ago and any time that I think I might want to re-engage, I just remember all of the idiocy I sat through waiting for it to get better.

Alternately, I can visit this thread and see that many still watch, all while saying it is a pile of shite at this point.

Woahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!

That is what I will say about this episode.

Holy shit!!!

It took just one action for my mood to change about the whole show.

I'll give y'all a few days to see it and then we need to chat!

Hot damn!

I was pretty certain it was gonna play out like that.... 
Thought they all managed to get away from the battle a bit too far easily tho - at the end of the last ep they were in deep shit!!!

Best episode in a long time.

walking dead coming to a close in 2022. but daryl and carol will be starting a new show in the same universe. so basically, the same show. i don't even know if i'm up to date on whatever has been released on netflix. maybe with the weather cooling down and make some popcorn and check it out.

My first thought is that we now know that Carol and Daryl survive to the finale.  Sort of a spoiler I think.   They can't make it a prequel since they obviously didn't have a relationship in Episode 1.   And then, maybe we should have just known that they wouldn't die.

We were late to the party but loving it. Too bad Fear the Walking Dead wasn’t up to the same level. 

Fun fact: Tovah Feldshuh is a family friend and well-known for her Broadway accomplishments  Ginsburg even asked to meet her after she performed a play about her and Sandra Day O’Connor! She only made national (worldwide?) fame after this show aired. 

Anyway, really looking forward to this show getting going again.

She has one of the cheesiest parts in all of the Walking dead...  You'll know when you see it.

Enjoy it while it lasts because the writing only gets worse...  Fear is a much better show to me now, it's writing has eclipsed Walking.

I do miss the time when this show was looked forward to as a Live Watch type of show every week.  (Or, at least the same night)

Binged the first handful of seasons and then watched for a number of seasons in real time before the consistent shark jumping stuff got to be too much.

Might start a Daryl and Carol spin off.  Started Fear but go bored pretty quickly.

Takes a lot to make a show like that compelling, to me.  They had some really great episodes.

The Wolves episodes were some of the worst for me.

I want to see Zombie Killing and the restoration of humanity damnit!

Yep.  Used to watch it live just about every Sunday night for a time there.  I tapped out a few seasons ago because it just got so ridiculous.  Can't believe it is still going....AMC sure milked this one as much as they could.  And sounds like it has been a mess behind the scenes with the creators and AMC suing each other over profits from the show.
