Yep.Having them all sleeping in a big pile of bodies with nobody staying awake to guard on the same night they've fought off an attack too, they all deserve to die really.
Think you are missing the point.You keep saying about characters not being killed off, but then complain that we don’t have a chance to connect with the characters?
You complain about slow building episodes, and yet this season has been fast paced, a lot has happened, but still you are unhappy, sure they have had chances to kill each other, but at the end of the day it is meant to be dramatic, would be pretty boring if Megan and Simon died after the first episode. I’m sure people would then complain it was too easy and unrealistic... blah blah blah
Exactly.I stopped watching it for that reason, same with Prison Break. Obviously it isn't realistic as it is Zombies but when it got silly I lost interest.
Really stupid shit that a normal human just wouldn't do, it was always guaranteed to be somebody being a knobhead that lets the walkers in and it all goes to shit. Rinse and repeat.
That bit where the big ginger fella decided he wanted a gun the walker had so he climbed out to him dangling from a bridge while the walker was still alive?
I stopped watching before Negan, but it sounds like it's got sillier.

Exactly! And he's just rammed him and ran him off the road and the car is upturned. He is obviously injured and Negan is almost always exclusively seen only with his baseball bat and not a gun.Would think after years of shooting they would have a decent aim.
Couldn't have put it better myself and Carol, Rick, Daryl and Morgan are all over the place. Like you say, no consistency and they change on a whim.Consistency in the characters, rather than their personality completely changing on a whim without us being told the slightest reason why. Is Carol a badass or a homebody? Does Darryl believe in humanity or is he killing everyone in sight? What is Morgan this week? By the show's nature it's unrealistic, but any work of fiction still needs a set of rules to govern it otherwise the stupidity can stand out like a sore thumb.
It's not moaning for moaning's sake, you can like something at the same time that parts of it bug the hell out of you. We all want it to be great.
Think you are missing the point.
It's fine not to kill characters off. No problem with that at all, but when you are writing it and making and producing it, it is all rather dumb and stupid to write and make storylines whereby you have your enemy totally defenceless, RIGHT in front of you, with you having them completely at your mercy and then you fire and you miss!!
THAT is the problem with not killing characters off. It's HOW they don't kill them off. I don't mind Negan getting away, but at least make it credible.
And I think you are mistaking me with someone else too. I love slow burning episodes. I loved the entire farm series where very little happened. That was one of my favourite seasons.
I just don't like padding where we seemingly don't move the story on and don't develop characters.
The farm one was great because it was a clash of morality and standpoint between Rick and his group and Herschel and his family.
Anyway, back to the not killing off. All they need to do is write in a sensible way how the likes of Negan keeps getting away, and stop having him as an unarmed sitting duck where every bullet seemingly just misses him by millimetres.
You seem deeply offended and upset. I don't get it.
I just think it could still be a very good show if they cut out all the ridiculous plothole nonsense.
Just think it could be so much better.I can understand the rick shooting at Negan moans.
But this latest episode they killed around half of the saviours attacking? Speaking from experience the distance the saviours are from the house, there is no way the weapons would be 100% accurate. So I don’t think there can be any complaints about Simon not dying.
The slow burning episode comment wasn’t aimed at you it was a general statement to some people on the thread which is why I didn’t quote you.
I agree the farm season was one of the best, although I personally preferred season 3 the most. However I would argue that people are always going to enjoy the earlier seasons because it is a new ideas
No I’m not upset at all, sorry if it appears that way, I just wish people would see it’s based on a comic book and not meant to be totally realistic although I do appreciate why some people do dislike this side of it.
As I've said before, I am not a big fan of flashback back stories on the whole, so that doesn't help.Too many characters to follow last couple of seasons. You can spend a whole episode developing one of them, only to not see them for ages. Pointless.
They need a big cull, get it down to a core of a dozen at most. The kid was a step forward.
Ha! Been thinking the same thing.What’s the deal with the helicopter?
Yeah, good episode last night.Picking up nicely for next week
So, you are I fact telling us it's like a macabre Coronation Street?I gave up on it a couple of years ago as I got fed up of the rinse and repeat story line, and not getting any answers or ending etc.
but I have a friend at work who still watches the walking dead, fear the walking dead, into the comics and all that. Anyway when talking about it last week he seems to suggest there isn't a ending to the series or story. it will just continue with new plots and story lines. similar to shows that go on for years. so anyone thinking they will get an answer or ending will be disappointed, apparently the comic is a good way into the future at least 3-4 years on in TV show material. and even that far in the future there is no answers to how it started, is there a cure etc. just more communities and stories around that.

I think there will be here though, at least to a degree. This is the TV series not the comic.Only from what I have been told from a fan boy who is into the walking dead. If anyone is expecting it to have a conclusion and be wrapped up in a few seasons you might be disappointed. There is no end to the story, just like greys anatomy or NCIS, just a continuation of new characters and sub plots.
Same here. Even though it was new it all started off feeling very old hat.It pisses me off when things drag on longer than needed, I don't even watch Corrie unless it's on at somebody elses house but that Phelan thing went on years and it annoyed me.
I did try to watch the Walking Dead spinoff but couldn't get into it
