Current Events > My girlfriend STILL watches The Walking Dead...

(+) Yeah! (+)

I don't understand why, it's the same thing every season.

*Rick and gang meet a guy who controls something (a town or large group of people.)*
*Rick and gang discover that this guy is not what he seems to be.*
*Rick and gang are in danger from this guy.*
*Rick and gang survive.*
*Cue preview of next season.*

It's not about zombies anymore.

Nearly everything can be reduced to redundant pointlessness.

Yup. I always thought this was a dumb criticism.

Only Governor fits that description.

Negan was forthcoming from the getgo about who he was and what he does.

But you know, you would probably know that if you actually watched the show instead of just assuming what is going on.

Negan controls a large group of people and killed half of Rick's group.

Tell me again how I am wrong.

My gf still watches it and enjoys Fear of TWD but I'm pretty sick of it in general although not quite for the same reasons and only watch TWD atm.
I've come to call it AMC's People Making Bad Decisions because everything is being pushed forward by DPA alone and minimal to no zombie involvement (lately they've even been using them as a weapon more than anything else) and it just feels like a dirty, gritty drama with a rote big bad rather than anything even related to the sort of 'how will they get out of this' fun of a zombie apocalypse.
Unless this season does something interesting/gets them back to basics, and especially if they go with the lazy option of killing off Judith/Carl/Michonne like I think they intend to, I'll probably give up on it altogether.
