Just watched the season 6 finale. Got so angry that I had to change my avatar. Onward to Game of Thrones!

It really needs to be renamed to The Bumbling Living. I was getting angrier and angrier with Rick's group for not seeing the stupidly obvious... like walking in to traps against an obviously superior in organisation and numbers opponent.

How do you even make that call to bring everyone important just to try and get one+ to the only doctor in the area? Rick's face was priceless. We've come a long way since Terminus 

 

We're on easy street, And it feels so sweet 
'Cause the world is 'bout a treat, When you're on easy street...

I simply can't get this wonderful song out of my head.

I thought they would have picked something a little more grating, but I'm sure this one would prove to be torturous after weeks on end.

Was not a fan of most of this season. The writing can be terrible or worse at times. And last night's "final" battle was silly and ridiculous. Negan's whole shtick is silly.

I agree with you - and I'm a hardcore fan of the early seasons & genre generally. But I actually find Negan & King Ezekeil to be so over the top and shakespearian in their acting that they work for me.

 

The plot lines that have run shallow on depth and deep on predictable cliches is what's really killed it for me. Not to mention one horrible "final battle" finale after another - the tactics are just atrocious. Gunfights with semi-automatic weapons in open terrain? Everyone would be dead in 30 seconds - it'd be like the final scene of Reservoir Dogs, not some 15 minute running firefight (be it Alexandria past night, or Terminus/Prison in seasons past).

That finale was like puking up Zima, only 25 minutes longer than usual.

So bad it finally cured me of my loyalty.  

 

 

Season 7 is now streaming on Netflix. I'm really hoping season 8 brings some life back to this show. Character development is great, but I felt so scattered and (dare I say) bored during a lot of last season.

I really think I could have been bit in the first 15min and still have my dying over with before the one hour mark.

How bad is Season Eight compared to Season Seven? I saw the first two episodes and it's all fighting and the character development felt like it was lacking. I hope the get rid of the clowns that are completely realistic.

It's all kind of been downhill since Negan was introduced.

Too generous by half. I’d argue the show started downhill well before that (once they arrived in Alex), and Negan was actually the first truly interesting character/potential-storyline to emerge since Terminus...
