For me it was just the same thing over and over: 1. Find a new "safe" spot. 2. Another group becomes an issue. 3. The two groups fight. 4. Random main character dies. 5. Go back to step 1.
Game of Thrones had great characters, killing off characters does nkt mean you din't respect them, it was a stort of war and hukan cruelty, it would be ridiculous if no one died, they die because it is the way the plot works, and it always has a point. The Walking Dead has no purpose.
I really liked Glenn's death. I took many breaks from that show and many did not see that death coming. Just because you love a character don't mean they have to die honorably. Now the first couple seasons were the best and I'm not as down with it but Glenn's death was the shit.
@@J-Wall sometimes when watching i gotta remind myself its still a horror series, you can expect some horrible shit like glenn getting brutally murdered with a baseball bat instead of the ''everything ends well for everyone'' type of stuff you see in basically every other genre. even if i don't agree with it, at least it keeps you on the edge of your seat. lots of movies/ shows you just know ''nah he's not in real danger, he's one of the main characters''
Daniel Cordero I thought it was still pretty good at that point, but I agree that it turned more into a social drama that had zombies in the background. The first season was amazing. I gave up on it after they escaped the hidden cannibal sanctuary Terminus and the next season began with the same villains eating an actors leg. It just felt like they stooped to shocking gore instead of a story and that was it.
@@NemeanLion- You should definitely watch YMS's videos on TWD. He does a really good job at explaining why season 2 fails from a story telling perspective and also talks about the production issues that season faced mainly due to AMC being a shit company.
It was horrendous in its inconsistency. Sometimes, it was anazing. Many other times it was abysmal. I checked out permanently after Maggie's idiot sister bit the dust.
What I can’t figure out is how it’s been years and the zombies are now basically bags of bones. So weak you can push a knife threw their scull. Yet anytime someone gets pinned down by one it’s like they are the strongest thing in existence.
@@cassidyerickson7408 That one's like, wayyyyyy easier to explain, if you take a fall over the age of 50 (even if that isn't really old in today's world) it can be pretty detrimental, especially for a fella like Dale who had arthritis. So, slow to react and get up, he might've even blacked out for a sec. Then the walker's already on him, and this was only like 2 months into the outbreak so walkers were way less deteriorated/removed from their human strength. Then lastly, your skin gets thinner as you age and ofc this makes it more fragile, so to summarise- one hungry dead fella V an old stiff sleepy fella with a thin flesh barrier. Who're you betting on?
And the Walkers are supposed to exist by eating flesh but specifically human flesh so why are there so many of them ? In the show they just seem to bite people and move on, whereas they should bite people to kill them then eat everything, even chewing the bones.
''he looked depressed'' in Joe's mind that guy is still depressed an undefined amount of time later and will probably be depressed until he goes to the grave because his character died on a show.
Imo s9 started fixing the pace & writing, But yea, Negan was the only really good thing from s7 & 8.(well, and very rarely a few minor characters and moments here and there).
Next time you are eating a T-bone I want you to try and stab the cooked and already softened bone, see if you make it 1/2 an inch. Joe's an experienced hunter... he would know
The breaking point for me was when Rick left the show. There’s just no skirting around the fact that he was the show’s central protagonist for 8 years and is the center of the narrative. The DVD covers for seasons 1-6 are literally just Rick standing in different locations. There have been plenty of other great characters, but the show has never been a true ensemble cast in the sense that there were multiple main protagonists. Rick was the Walter White of the Walking Dead. Sure, you can continue the story with a couple remaining original characters, and I think they did a fairly good job with what they had left, but it will never be the same.
@Bobby The Crazy Bichon Frisé if you miss David Hayter as Snake check out the Joe Rogan interview I just posted where he has Solid Snake on the podcast
I think killing off Carl before that was worse… Rick’s whole thing was raising up his son in the dangerous new world, and trying to bring back the peace of the old world… so without Carl, he’d lost his purpose. sure, he had plenty of other people to care about, too, but Carl was the only one from the old world. I wish they’d kept Carl around, and ended the show after seven seasons or so, with Rick dying heroically to save the day, and the final show of the series being Carl passing on Rick’s sheriff’s hat on to Judith 👍
Thats why I hate alot of the complaints like, WHY DID GELNN DIE? OR WHYS ISN'T THE SHOW ABOUT ZOMBIES? They're just adapting from the source material, thats all.
These two just dont get it. But yeah obviously alot of the show's based off the comics. And rick leaving allowed other big characters to breathe which alot of people really like so
@@kiddhitta Anybody else read the comics and just be surprised about HOW much more banging is happening to everywhere?! Dale was even banging them in the RV!!
@@kiddhitta people knew that for years and no one wanted him dead in the show either the red head guy so losing the 2 at the same time was too much my family use to saw this together and after Glenn was killed everyone lose interest,same with my friends and their families they clickbait us for a whole season surviving below a trash can and stuff just to kill him at the end.
They keep killing off all the interesting characters. All that's left are the boring ones. Also Carol becoming a depressed loner for the 100th time got old 4 seasons ago.
@@luisteissier9408 they want to make a show about daryl and carol i think thats why they show so much scene of carol questionning herself , i think its getting lame too but its not a dealbreaker show is still fire
Everyone always says, "I stopped watching after Glenn died!!!" Glenn's death in the comics was WAY too iconic to not use in a live action setting. His death in the comics was so brutal it had to be done.
It had to set up the seriousness they were dealing with Negan. I don’t even think it’s Glenn’s death that got them. I think the scene was so intense and perfectly particular, and broke down the main characters so much that some people either couldn’t take it anymore (too dark and traumatic) or just couldn’t adjust/be understanding of their favorite characters not being the “I’m going to fight my way out of this” type. But it had to be done. Carl’s death on the other hand, made this whole thing useless. He was the future. Show never needed to focus on him, he just needed to be alive. He was ink and paper to which these characters stories were written with and then it just became a bunch of whatever. Rick barely mourned him. That was his child son. Nobody meant anything to him in comparison to his fucking son and he just moved on. So uncharacteristic - was not the Rick I believed in. Show could’ve picked up again years later, even with a different actor, but killing Carl caused this show to be dead dead dead dead dead. Gone and useless. Not even iconic anymore.
It was getting bad long before that but I just couldn't tolerate it at that point anymore they should have killed him off the first time instead of faking his death just to kill him later
@@YouDontKnowSh1t Late, but tbh I do think that season 9-11 were pretty good imo, but it's such a shame that the show took such a big nose-dive in season 7-8 and nothing will ever beat the first few seasons for me.
I never read the comics but did look that up and saw the part where he died... the thing for me was they "faked" his death when he hid under the dumpster then it took a long time between seasons to show EVERYONE being killed by the bat (lucille) THEN after all the literal months of waiting and pretty boring episodes they finally show Glenn and Abraham dying. Took way to0 long to show all of this to happen. I liked the walking dead and i'm sure theres still some good moments but I tuned out after around Glenns death. Just wasn't worth it every Sunday anymore for me. Maybe I'll binge watch what I missed after we'll see.
Steven Yuen the actor who plays Glenn knew this was coming eventually. His character dies in the same way in the comics which is the source material for this show.
I made a daydream series in my head to help me sleep and the main character got to a point where one day he was in the middle of a villain’s introduction and pretty much said “fuck this, it’s just another guy with another problem.”
ObsoleteBoomerMobile Obsolete The show and the comics are almost two different things entirely. They also ended like 2 years ago by now I think. I’ve only read the first volume, so I can’t say if it’s better than the show or not, but books usually are
The way glean died was the most realistic way a character could die Thats how every person die in real life it wont be any build up to it It shows that death is inevitable and thats why it was really shocking and good
@@Psilocybin77 what i meant was that no matter how, when, and where we are. We could die a sudden death There wont be any built up for it And i think thats what the show showed us
"You guys have no respect for your main characters." - Joe Rogan Not only did Glenn die in the same way in the comic but the actor made sure Glenn died that way on the show.
@@chowder4118 That's funny. We aren't talking about fossilized bones. We are talking about a theoretical half living creature with a deteriorating body and exposed bone 🤦♂️. Collagen fibers is what make bones strong, I'm pretty sure zombies would be lacking that collagen. Fossilization happens when an animal is buried by sediment shortly after it dies. Its bones are protected from rotting by layers of sediment. As its body decomposes all the fleshy parts wear away and only the hard parts, like bones, are left behind. Not only that but even after fossilization they are pretty fragile.
Once they started making it "not realistic enough " that's when It got bad. What made it good IMO was how dark and real it felt earlier on. Now it's like a soap opera
I remember when I first started watching it, the intro music and video were chilling. It almost made you feel afraid as if you were there. Now its like meh, it's a zombie. Theyll dispatch it and go back to their monologues about survival and humanity.
Walking dead has been a soap opera since day 1. The creator of walking dead literally said "I created walking dead as a soap opera with zombies sprinkled in". So you're delusional to think it was ever about anything else but the people and their lives.
@@trollwithabishai211 and it probably made no sense. I put the whole season out of my memory, it's too painful to remember all the ways they fucked it up
I was done when Carl got axed... but I was, admittedly, kind of checked out somewhere in the middle of the Negan stuff.. Like the dude w. the tiger and all that.. it was caked at that point
I’ve come too far to give up on TWD now but I’m glad it’s ending soon. The first two seasons are by far my favorite and I still re-watch them regularly.
TWD has metaphorically become a slow lurching zombie going nowhere, they’re not building up towards any kind of climax it just keeps dragging on and on. Most of the original TWD characters are gone, but if you still like watching a soap opera with zombies in it that’s fine!
@SERGIO BACA I've been into the comics for a long time and used to read every episode the month it came out and when they hit the Commonwealth storyline the storyline got so boring and nothing was really interesting was happening for awhile Then all of a sudden they just ended it out of nowhere. it was such a disappointment to me.
@@TMan1000 Why? Just why? Please explain why you still like that show. They have done nothing new since the Terminus season. Since then it's been rinse and repeat. I tried to stick around with high hopes. but gave up once the Whisperers showed up and no one has shot Negan in the head. JUST FUCKING SHOOT HIM, HIS IS RIGHT THERE!
Honestly, the death of Glenn was harsh. But man, I fell in love with Negan. Dude played the villain in such a unique way. Both Negan and Daryl were probably the only reasons why I kept watching the show. But I do agree, at times it felt like the characters were just living and surviving and there was less interesting plots and the main characters were just leaving. Yet again, I doubt there's much going on in the world during an apocalypse and people in real life just die.
In Daryls defense....they do often show him retrieving arrows after the hit their targets....I used to say the same thing about him never running out of arrows....
Dont care how the outbreak started. Added mystery even tho its just lazy writing. It needs to end tho. I just watch it to troll it. It really is fekin awful
@@AverageAtBestHDTB I'm okay with not knowing the origin, a good portion of zombie stories rarely tell where the disease started from anyway. I only care if the ending is good.
The story went no where . They had an amazing.oppertunity to make a legendary series about the saving of humanity and the search for a cure ..... ..but instead they fucked it up.
They strayed away from the comic too much, it burned me out. No one feels like a real person. But also the series is supposed to be about the people living in this world. Also you should see the comic ending before you judge the story.
StarCat64 Yeah I havent finished it but yeah staying true to the source material would have did them a lot of favors. Big part was people got wayyy to attached to fictional people in the show. Yeah ask anyone that read the comics and that shit was wrote with no fucks given when they killed someone off. But yeah finding the cure was never ever a subject as pretty sure in the show it was pretty muched stated in the CDC episode that shit was hopeless. Plus zombies and the cure has been done to death. Its why Romero zombies are a preferred as its all based on the same story but its how people adapted to the changes after night of the living death.
That pissed me off too. I can pretty much guarantee that a single tiger can wipe out all of those zombies. They dont have the dexterity to wield weapons or shoot from a distance.. basically they are just an all-you-can-eat buffet for a tiger.
A tiger can weigh around 400 - 500 pounds and upwards which as the same as 3-4 average sized healthy humans, and you’re telling me Shiva (The Tiger in TWD) has a problem with some malnourished sacks of rotting meat probably weighing about 20-30lbs each? Okay
@@c_f0rce what's with the hostility. Daddy pull out too soon? Some people like the story the way it was. Changing the story has obviously cause a huge decline in the show... Genius. Pull your head from your asshole and go get some fresh air.
C_Force the source material is godly.... the show isn’t and could never be because the source material has an endgame, while shows aren’t guaranteed to become popular and stick around. Shows usually bump into these problems regardless of source material because they have to return season after season, and keep coming up with a reason to keep the viewers watching. Thus, by season 4 (3 with some), a lot of shows are stretching the writing, and start doing shit like flashback episodes, dream sequence episodes, musical episodes etc. If they followed the comic book, this could’ve ended years ago
nuke97 nah it’s fine that they stuck to the source material with his death. Glenn is maybe one of the most innocent ones. For him to die it just shows how brutal and how much of a threat Negan and the saviors are. Well, at least how they were supposed to be as the all out war storyline in the show was garbage. That for me was when the show started going downhill. The gun fights were ridiculous. However, Negan’s intro with him killing Glenn and Abe was done very well.
It was all downhill once they shafted Frank Darabont. If you notice there was a quality drop off after season 1, it's because Darabont was shafted and left the show as director. He basically made the Walking Dead as a show. He also directed the Mist, Shawshank Redemption, a lot of phenomenal movies. Ever since he left, it's been a downhill slide.
40NinerFaithful Just because it they copied the idea from the source material doesn’t mean it was a good one. Writers make mistakes. Honestly it probably wouldn’t of been to bad had they not faked his death a few episodes prior and then killed Abraham.
Them killing glenn didnt bother me nearly as much as carl. I had checked out by then but when I heard they killed carl I said well definitely not going back now.
@@zachrobinson6801 what made me mad was Denise got The arrow in the eye which was Abraham's death in the comic ( If you remember it was the same episode Abraham and Eugene found the bullet making place and that's where it happened so tricked you into thinking he was about to get it) but I was like cool I get to see him in all out war and then they just killed him off 3 episodes later anyway just so they had a death that made you think Glenn was gonna be ok it was bullshit..The cliff hanger was horrible and ruined the climax of the episode and never should have been like that plus the whole dumpster thing was just stupid and made no sense to the point where they had to switch the way he landed so he could crawl underneath the dumpster.. I've never seen a dumpster with a gap underneath that big anyway..I was already getting annoyed with stuff they were doing and that really killed it for me and it's just got worse from there.. I'm not going to lie I still watch it just because what else am I going to watch but I'm never excited for it like I used to be and I normally wait until I'm really bored and watch a bunch at once..
The Soloosh Don’t think you get it. When they killed off Carl, they killed Rick’s reason for LIVING, for going on and continuing to build a better world..so as soon as it happened, I immediately looked at my bf and said “I guarantee you Andrew Lincoln will leave ASAP after this..why oh WHY would they make this kind of idiotic decision?” People went nuts over it because it was all for naught. Well...look what happened. It was a stupid creative decision that spurred Andy’s exit, that was his cue but he thought it was a good thing since he wanted to spend time with his family IRL anyway.
But if the stories changed like...idk resident evil 3..its gonna piss alot of people off..changing a character for the sorce is sometimes a deal breaker but people will accept more cuz lock down..
The show’s creator Frank Darabont (director of Shawshank Redemption, top film on IMDb) had the show Walking Dead taken from him after a disagreement with studio heads. The reason why that show was as good as it was before the end of season 3 was because he was at the helm, once they kicked him out (and he sued or is sueing the studio for over $100 million dollars for it) the show turned into a mess because the writers making it didn’t have his vision and they pretty much lost all clear creative direction the show once had. It’s much like what happened when Disney started making Star Wars without George Lucas
Nailed it. The shower runner they replaced him with was either amateur or just man with a total trash tier imagination. It felt like middle school kids took over the writers room or something. It felt like a shitty soap opera but more annoying because soap operas are going for what it is that I call shitty, and this was supposed to be a horror survival show. The inconsistency the characters showed, bogging down of plot to drag out episodes, they got rid of him and brought on AngeLa Kang later and suddenly the show goes from trash tier to primo once against. She salvaged it and made it better all while having to incorporate Gimbles nonsense without retconning. Gimble. That’s his name. No talent hack they got for a quarter of the price.
i would argue that even tho the storyline and the intensive fear you received from the walkers in season 1 & 2 deteriorated going further through the seasons, the show definitely peaked from seasons 3-5 when they were camped at the prison
Glen getting killed was actually a fresh idea. When negan became part of the crew it was one of the most ridiculous plot twist. And Maggie is going to deal with him? Please
It happened in the comics, but they weren’t exactly following the source material all that much at all aside from locations and characters whom are far less appealing
@@shepherdstar14 It's really weird how sometimes when they divert from the comics it works out for the better like with ricks hand. But then they ruin characters like Jesus and kill carl
This. Negan was a perfect villain and should have died or exiled. Now he is hero and a main character who does everything on the show and we’re suppose to forget about all the horrific things he did. He is working alongside Maggie whose husband he killed. That’s just ridiculous. More unrealistic than zombies. And people buy this bullshit.
The comic book actually had a solid ending with an older Carl retelling the story to his descendants... now we’ll never get that because he’s fucking dead.
TWD would have been great if Frank Darabont didn’t leave after Season 1, but no crackhead executives at AMC said “nah”. To give perspective on what the series would look like if Darabont had stayed, he planned to do a flashback episode in season 2 about a soldier and his squad trying to reach a checkpoint in Atlanta as backup as the city is overrun, and that soldier ends up being the walker that Rick shot when he hid inside of the tank from the herd of walkers. That soldier had been bit and was about to kill himself with the grenade that Rick picked up, which ended up saving them by blowing up the window out of the CDC. We would have had a much more interesting, interconnected, and rich show. Now it’s just “find place, tension, fight, repeat”.
Eventually, all zombie plots devolve into fighting humans with the zombies just acting as a reason for society to stay destroyed. The genre rarely diverges from this plot direction.
It´s sort of realistic though. When it comes down to it, human intelligence and adaptability will always be more dangerous than mindless flesh-eating sacks of meat. At the start, people died a lot, because they simply weren´t ready for anything like this. Not to mention that many probably died of hunger and thirst, because it´s not possible to feed millions by scavenging.
George Romero created the zombie story for precisely that reason -- to provide a situation in which humans had no restraints, and we could watch them be heroes or jerks according to their true selves. Westerns do the same thing by putting people on the frontier, beyond the reach of mainstream society.
I recommend people read the graphic novel. It’s all collected in four omnibuses. Also, the story line in the show cannot go much further unless they do something way past the book series.
@@TheAlienGangster agreed. I’m curious if they are just going to use Ricks other kid to finish the story akin to comic or just get crazy with it. Maybe the cdc finds a cure. Who knows
i quit the show when they killed glenn too, years later i thought i might have been wrong and i came back to the show and re watched all of it and i was like "yeah quitting when glenn died was the right call"
It wasn't Glenn's death that derailed the show, it was what led up to it. Season 6 went completely awry with the Glenn dumpster fake out and then having Ricks group turn into the Expendables and kill tons of saviors before Negan even showed up. The saviors were devalued by that point and so was Glenn's character. That ridiculous cliffhanger at the end of season 6 cheapened the whole scene even more. It was as if the writers knew what fans would be expecting so they purposely manipulated Glenn's death as a way to fuck with the audience which is something a tv show/movie should never do.
I think they ruined the saviors by having about 500,000 saviors. Ricks group killed a ridiculous amount of saviors just for the sake of content. So unrealistic and just terrible writing honestly
Glenn's dumpster fake out was when the show majorly fizzled for me. It was just so poorly executed and demonstrated such a lack of respect for the audience. Granted, it's debatable the show was going downhill since all the way back to Season 2 or 3 due to questionable writing being there pretty early. I would often still watch it just to laugh at the writing: "Why are dingleberry's brown?" But after season 6 I couldn't stomach much more.
The way Glenn is killed in the show is literally scene-for-scene *exactly* how he was killed in the comic book. That’s not disrespectful to the character, that’s following the source material.
They shit on that scene. That wasn’t source material scene-for-scene. Abraham was killed by Dwight in a completely different situation. That show shits alllll over the comics. AMC should’ve never been given that show.
The show went to shit after they stopped taking the zombies seriously and turned all the focus from fighting against them to fighting against random groups of humans.
@@abouesxobar I get that but the best episodes are the ones that make the audience fear the zombies. The fear of the zombies comes when the group is exposed and don't have anywhere safe to go. Humans normally become the treat when the group has established a safe place to operate from. These places eventually start to feel stale so it was good when people like the Governor forced the group out of the prison or when the cannibals forced them out of the sanctuary and exposed them to the treat of the zombies again. The humans have always been seen as a threat but ever since Alexandria was cleared of the zombie invasion in season 6, they have basically been presented as the only threat in the show. Alexandria, hill top, the saviors and the kingdom were all introduced by early season 7 and as far as I'm aware the show still focuses on these groups. This just makes the show feel stale compared to the usual destruction and evacuation of the group's base by the end of each season. (Of course, this is all just my opinion)
@@dhouse407 dude but think about it, they got stronger. You really want them to just walk around kill walkers all day, they learned how to deal with them. And in real life I guarantee you people would be the bigger issue, people who have lost everything and have nothing to lose are going to fight against you and rob you.
@@kahunaortiz2094 yes, but when the zombies are no longer a threat, the show is fucking boring. So either change the plot or have them fight for a cure, or just end the fucking show. TWD has sucked ass for longer than TWD was ever good.
Agreed. I don't know how people who watch the show can be oblivious to the comic source material, but here we are. Then again, he was talking about Joel Osteen's dick root one day regarding pictures that clearly were not Joel Osteen...
john dillion well to be fair it wasn't a true IQ test. It's one of those internet ones that gives you an approximation. He could be anywhere between 110 and 130. You can't be below 100 IQ and score above 110 on even such a test. Joe may not be a rocket scientist but I'd say 120 IQ wouldn't be far off for him.
@@thegroove14 my guess would be they end on season 12. Theres still a few more things that have to be played out. The radio call at the end of season 9 indicates they are getting quite close to the end. But theyve been renewed for an 11th season and they havent said its the final season. So season 12 is my bet
Yeah I heard that. Dude must be a good actor. I stopped watching at season 7. And not because of Glen dying wasn’t really a fan of his. But because Shane, Andrea, Dale, Hershal, T Dog and Merle dying. I love that cast
@@thesupervisor3270 Season 10's quarantine extras finale, "Here's Negan", is a top 10 of the whole show. I had never seen him in anything else till TWD, but I can vouch for JDM being an absolute beast of an actor, he kills your faves and then cooks your son spaghetti, and you love and hate him for every bit of it. He's absolutely nailed the loving heart beating at the centre of this violent, brutal man, his Negan is quirky, never acts without purpose, and you'll be rooting for him over longtime favourites if you ever get past S7. Not sure why you continued for 3 seasons when your favourites you just mentioned, died the latest, at S4? But I also dearly miss Herschel and Dale, and T Dog was a nice presence, even if brief and not well explored.
Yep. I gave up on it a long time ago too. Sometimes there were entire episodes where they encountered like 1 zombie who they killed while yawning or eating breakfast or something. When zombies become an afterthought in your zombie apocalypse show, probly time to hang it up.
Glens death wasnt a shock at all if you followed the comics , it was one of the biggest storypoints. Also Negan becomes pretty much the main dude after this. Glens death was amazing on screen, Im glad they kept it so close to the original. It HAD to be that brutal to keep in line with the next biggest chracter coming though
Don't get me started on the ninja zombie problem lol. They'll just be walking and all of a sudden god damn ninja zombie comes out of nowhere, they don't hear or seeit until its on screen, pretty sure zombies don't choose to be quiet lol they just are groaning constantly and i'm pretty sure zombies would stink to high heaven so you'll smell them before you hear them. Just something that always bothered me about the show.
Same here. For me, it was season 4 mid-season finale. After that, I just stopped. Not just this show, but zombie fiction in general is so overdone and dry. It is the easiest way to make money because people will suck dick for zombie apocalypse films/tvshows/games no matter how crappy and repetitive they are.
@Natural Born Hustler✓ I know what u mean but there's still some very soft spots especially the temples left way into adulthood oh I left out knife strikes to the ear hole too and under the chin up through the pallet
i mean for reference the characters dare was sealed by the comic books, only factor is if the show was going to play that character to die that way or put someone else in his place which they did first to make you think it won’t be glenn then glenn got killed next.
The show was never the same after The Governor attacked and burned down the prison. I gave up soon after those cannibals tried to bludgeon and eat them all.
I do get the stuff about Glenn's death, but part of the impact of that scene/introduction, even in the comics, is that the main group you've followed for so long are utterly powerless to Negan and his saviours. Say what you will about AMC's handling of the franchise and the story-lines, but Glenn's death is super important and ripples out across most of the characters decisions from that point on.
Agreed. I look forward to seeing what happens next but I am a “wait for it to be on Netflix” kind of fan. If I watch TWD I need to binge it, the constant gore just isn’t for me despite loving the show.
I mean yeah but to milk it twice as a cheap cliffhanger is lazy ass storytelling. First with the just kidding he’s not actually dead mid season finale then the real death in the finale. Felt almost insulting.
@@user-sp4sp2qd6p I agree the writing went off a cliff after Season 6, and only really recovered when Angela Kang took over as Showrunner in Season 9. For most though they'd already tuned out and with the failure to keep Andrew Lincoln (Rick) & Chandler Riggs (Carl) on-board, a lot of the general interest wained, even for massive fans of the comics like me.
If you binge watch it, like I did once .. You see the same formula for every season. 1. "Gonna do a supply run". 2. Plan goes sideways 3. "We stick to the plan". 4. New formidable enemy appears.
Oh God, their big bad formula eventually wore me out. Those idiots who wore walker hides? The Whisperers? Damn, zzzzzzzzz. The show died when it got to Alexandria.
Joe’s complaints are actually stupid ones, the main issue is how repetitive and essentially never ending the plot has become, they find some haven with new characters and a new life and then shit goes wrong and they are back to square one and randomly wondering around, and this story line just goes in circles and circles with no conclusion
Will Swain the writers of breaking bad didn’t actually know how the series was going to end when they started, but they managed to keep it together and knock it out of the park, which is rare
Uhh incorrect. Like just completely wrong, and it's weird no one has corrected you. That formula died in Season 5. We're in S10 now and they haven't left the "haven" they found in S5. Instead they had a war, restarted civilisation, had a time skip, and the show is now about politics kinda. Which, really, is how a show like this SHOULD progress. I get it, if you think the show sucks or that it's boring, then you do you king. But saying that the plot is the same circle over and over is wrong.
Yup, me too. Especially since the tiger was the pet of a obvious mentally ill dude that calles himself king, speaks all 'kingly' and has all his followers address him as such. Without use of force, people would surely pick that guy as their leader. Right?
The way glenn died made negan scary, for about 3 minutes. Then he killed abraham, who found nothing better to say as a death quote than "suck my nuts" and negan was now just like any other basic anime bitch
CLG Skrypt It affected people in different ways. Personally, I was kind of scarred for a little while from that episode, but I thought it was brilliant. It always confused me though how people complained about how brutal that episode was when the comic is many times more so.
