The Walking Dead Season 9, anyone in?
Wow, they are going for another season (post 8)! I'm burnt on it. I endured season 8, because I wanted to see Negan ripped to bloody shreds, as he deserved, then they pulled this BS "oh, we can't kill him crap".

I honestly thought the series was over, as it seems like they ended in a "happily ever after place", with no cliff-hangers.

I thought the writing was supposed to get better ... guess someone really wanted a wagon

One the things I've always wondered about, is nobody has ever said: "Oh man, do you smell that? There must be a walker in that room!" I'm thinking dead bodies can stink really bad, but no one ever wrinkles a nostril!

I guess getting the seeds made sense but everything else in the museum was so stupid, even by TWD standards. A lot of people have given the show a lot of Sunday nights over many years, they owe us better than this.

Seems like ages ago, but I remember Monday morning posts on TWD used to be multiple pages long.

The wagon scene was about the dumbest thing I've seen on TWD in a long time. You're telling me they couldn't find a wagon, plow or canoe anywhere other than a museum? C'mon, man.

Or that the horses couldn't pull the wagon through all the mud. Which appeared to be a small mud puddle on the side of a dry road.

Yeah, another season? I don't think so. same old bad decisions by the same old people. Nothing new or interesting.

That and the drama with the walkers coming towards them. Acted like it was first season experience in killing them - run away. But then the dude goes down and now everyone comes back and kills them all.

They live in a society where they have to dispose of these zombies, not run away and hope to avoid them forever. They have to be eradicated.

Like I said, I finished SOA, so I'll finish TWD. It's easy to watch with a DVR and laugh at some of the dumb stuff - like the wagon and plow retrieval stupidity.

Dude, same here. I don’t mind blood and gore one bit, but for some weird reason, that episode turned me off to the entire series.

It was terrible, all of it. The only smart move was Maggie hanging Gregory for hi asshattery. Which should have happened a couple seasons ago.

Past time to gently insert a knife into the ear of this show, and plunge to the hilt.

It jumped the shark for me when they brought the Nagan character in. Just got needlessly dark for me. Stuck it out about half of that season hoping it would be a short lived detour, but them moved on.






What part of "...Shall not be infringed" don't you understand???

The touching "told you so" conversation with Negan told me all that I need to know. This season will be predictable and shitty. You locked a psychopath in your basement. Gee, wonder what happens when he gets out?

Damn, I didn’t think it was possible for the show to get any worse, but this season is proving me wrong. And the whole Rick and Michonne thing is just...yuck.

One bright spot - Sydney Park (Cyndie, from the all-woman clan) was beyond smoking hot on TWD.

Edit: meant to write TD as in Talking Dead.
