Syrinx Posted March 27, 2017 Share Posted March 27, 2017 I thought that the last two episodes have been much stronger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rushian King Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 I thought that the last two episodes have been much stronger.I would say last weeks's episode was one of the worst of the entire series. This week's was better but still poor and considering next week is the season finale then the entire season can be considered mediocre at best regardless of how good the finale is. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rushian King Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 Man this is just weak! Bad writing, bad new characters. What happens to these shows that lose their way?I think AMC uses the show as a cash cow to fund it's other series. Whatever the budget is I wouldn't be surprised if a big chunk goes to makeup/special effects. They then tell the writers to stretch the story as thin as possible over 16 episodes and repeat each episode multiple times throughout the week charging advertisers a lot of money. Two reasons they stretch the season: first they get more of the aforementioned advertising dollars that would decrease with fewer eps and second they don't want to catch up to the story being told in the comics.

I can't wait for Better Call Saul to come back next month. That's a great show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thesweetscience Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 Yeah I think I am done. The show has gone full stupid. Taking it off the DVR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J2112YYZ Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 I wouldn't say it's gone full stupid but it's just completely uninteresting now. This is also around the point I stopped reading the comic as well. I can't remember if I read it here or somewhere else but supposedly they were aware in the comic that the story was becoming the same old same old and they did something huge to change it up. Now, I thought the introduction of Negan was gonna really change the dynamic of the show, turns out they completely botched his character after the season opener. They never kept the momentum from that going for Negan. Now, whatever this big thing in the comic was, i'm sure they'll do it on the show. But when will that happen? Personally, I don't care. This is the first time since I started watching that the season finale didn't leave me interested in where things were going. Another war between Rick and another group? Who gives a shit anymore? I'm done. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Syrinx Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 Yep agreed. A disappointing season. The garbage gang may be the stupidest characters ever on TV. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thesweetscience Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 It was the "tiger to the rescue" that did it for me. Actually the whole "King Ezekiel" shtick was pretty dumb. Every time that guy talks I have to go palm to face. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J2112YYZ Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 I can't stand the leader of the garbage pail kids. She's so annoying. I keep hoping that she'll get knifed in the crotch or something. The tiger jumping out of nowhere to maul a couple people did get me to chuckle a little both times. But how does he know who to attack? He's a f'ing tiger, he doesn't know who the good or bad guys are, he just wants to have lunch. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Segue Myles Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 I don't watch this anymore but reading your commentary is making me doubt I ever watched the same show! Flipping heck...tigers???

YYZumbi Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 This is what you can read on wikipedia about WD: Season 8Season 8 was announced in October 2016, just prior to the season 7 broadcast premiere. It will premiere with the show's 100th episode, starting in October 2017. Gimple is set to remain as the showrunner for this season. Future seasonsExecutive producer David Alpert said in 2014 that the original comics have given them enough ideas for Rick Grimes and company over the next seven years. "I happen to love working from source material, specifically because we have a pretty good idea of what Season 10 is gonna be", Alpert said. "We know where seasons 11 and 12 [will be]... we have benchmarks and milestones for those seasons if we're lucky enough to get there. So I guess this will go on the same as it does now...Damn! I miss those old episodes there Rick did not have a full town to take care of. Those episodes was golden! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This show sounds like it jumped the shark the worst possible way! Well, the leader of the one community, King Ezekiel, was a former theater actor and zookeeper when the whole zombie thing started. He befriended a tiger while working at a zoo and named it Shiva. He took care of the tiger when it was injured and they bonded strong, so he kept it as a pet when everything happened. Usually the tiger is just there by his side as a warning to people to be careful and save Ezekiel when the situation arises. For the most part both the guy and the tiger are cool but this was the first time the tiger attacked people. It was just funny seeing it randomly jump on screen to take out a couple henchmen.

JohnnyBlaze Posted April 6, 2017 Share Posted April 6, 2017 I saw the last several minutes of the season finale. My god it's awful. Nobody sees a big ass tiger charging again and again? Even the quality of the shoot looks cheap. Seriously, Walker Sasha coming at Negan looked like a gag reel. Embarassing. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stupid to bring the tiger along when you know there will be a lot of bullets flying around. I can see how he didn't get hit the first time he showed up. It was a surprise. But after that, how does someone not just fill it with lead considering the caliber of fire power they had in the gunfight. You're telling me that not one of Negan's guys was like "f**k this, i'm taking that tiger out". 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But yeah, how would she know who to attack? I didn't watch Talking Dead to see if maybe it was mentioned on there somewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I were on Negan's side, I'd be gunning for the tiger immediately.If I were on Rick's side, Negan would be my first attempted kill. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnRogers Posted April 6, 2017 Share Posted April 6, 2017 All we can hope for is that the show runner looks at the evidence and learns from it. Vocal fan outrage and a significant drop in viewership should tell you something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually the show has been in a slide since the Governor arc ended. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
