The Walking Dead Series

What a shit piece of tv that final episode was. That's the worst battle scene I've ever seen.
I was thinking at least if they keep Negan alive they can have a guerrilla war next season to make that exciting but that battle was so piss poor that I think they need to stick to stabbing zombies in the head as their best action.
Those rubbish dump people and their cabbage speak are stupid as well.
Why do I keep subjecting myself to this show???
Mostly so I can whinge about it I guess.

Agree on letdownedness..I actually had a little bit of hope from the previous episode. I'm really running out of characters that I actually like and unlike game of thrones its not because they are dying despite close firefights with automatic weapons. I think my favourites now are that lesbian with the knife from the ladies camp, the mustachioed right hand man of Negan and maybe that king bloke with the dreads as I look to him being as mad as a hatter and everyone just following along because the world is mad anyway.
I actually told myself with 20 mins to go that once this Negan situation was resolve and the series finished I would never watch another again. Damned writers saw me coming so looks like I have 1 more season left in me.
Bastards.

I watch because it is true-loves third favourite show and I had already read this thread so knew what was going to happen and had to act interested when she said that she thought that lady in the coffin would be dead and bite Negan etc.
Was a dull ole episode especially given that I knew what was going to happen.
I did enjoy the intensity/vicousness of that battle on the roof although I would have much preferred to see how she went from being nearly thrown off the roof to being able to throw the other one off the roof

Sorry I'm late to the thread. I was a real WD fan until I missed a few seasons but I'm all caught up now....
A few thoughts.....
Negan is one of, if not THE best TV bad guy ever.
Ditto for Simon as a 2IC.
The series is really set up brilliantly for next season as the groups band together to take on the saviours.
Anyone else into Fear the Walking Dead? After an awesome first season which essentially followed what woulda happened if Rick hadnt been in a coma it's descended into real boredom. Not many characters to root for and no main bad guy doesn't help.

@MN5 FTWD started so well, I thought ep 2 was brilliant, but has been on a downward spiral since, but I still watch it!!
Cliff Curtis needs to channel his iner Jake the MUss a bit more though instead of the piss weak pussy he is most of the time!

Yeah the parts where they got quarantined, segregated etc before the dead inevitably took over were cool. Strand lost a shitload of cool factor by being a raving arse a bandit ( it's true ). Both long haired teenagers irritate the fuck out of me.
The show is really weak in comparison.
-
@MN5 and as the world was falling apart and they were stuck in the barber shop, thought it was quite an intense episode...but yeah they seem to make teens in so many series nowadays like that and you just hope the zombies or someone fucks them up.

Daniel is a cool character. We'll see him again according to Wikipedia.
How nice is Strands boat? I'd just say fuck it and live on that if I were in the situation! ( obviously after finding a mechanic somewhere )
-
Thoughts on the first episode back in ?
I found the flash forwards weird.
Negan seems to have lost a fuckload of mystique and menace.
The hilltop leader is a fluffybunny.
Overall no where near as much anticipation as there was for GOT. The series is really starting to drag
-
It was so F-ing annoying, worst tactical plan ever, roll up on a building where the enemy occupy high ground, waste precious bullets shooting out windows, don't kill the big bad despite the multiple chances you have.
The Walking Dead writers are just trolling us now.

S'funny. I felt there was a lot of anticipation that Rick had underestimated things with Negan yet again.
-
I thought it was a decent ep.
That said, they need to get rid of Negan soon, or let him escape to return in a few seasons or something...this story arc has run its course.
Not sure why the Father didnt just pop Negan off when he saw him, had time to bring his weapon up, knows who he is.
I have officially quit FTWD, show going nowhere fast!

Yeah FTWD suxxxxxxxxxxxxxx. Unbelievably boring especially now Cliff has gone. It started so well too.

@mn5 It was very confusing. I must have missed something as I can't remember why/how Carol and the King's lot were left dazed and just who they were chasing. Did it happen in the previous epsiode?
-
@catogrande IIRC one of the 'baddies' detonated a bomb or something in front of the door which obviously housed a bunch of walkers.
So apparently that dude double crossed them, so where is he?
Need to tie this up soon, the whole Negan storyline has gone on far too long now.
-
Not wrong @taniwharugby Negan and Simon are sorely missed. Also that chick who led the weirdos in the junkyard who double crossed Rick and the gang.
The chick who got bitten after running out of ammo. Who was she ? Her inevitable death seemed pretty full on considering she's a character I have no idea about.
When the Negan storyline is over where to then? He is a more compelling baddie than the Governor which is a good effort but surely there can't be another bad guy to top him....
-
@mn5 I like Negan, but in small doses, when he has too much screen time, he comes across as overplaying things.
Ideally, he should disappear for a season or 2 rather than die.
Yeah they tried to have all these varied story arcs which gave random people more time on screen than before (that chick who got bitten) but it ended up just being messy IMO.
