The Walking Dead: Season 8

[emeraldknight47]

The ladies of The Walking Dead were sure looking mighty fine in The Talking Dead, though! Between Lauren Cohan's legs and Christian Serratos' ample---uhm----assets, whew. Made all the commercials almost worthwhile! LOL!

I'd be okay if this was the last season.

Ok, overall the episode was good. You could tell Rick and company carefully planned this for months.

But three things really bothered me, a couple of things, you guys mentioned it already...

First, Come on, Negan is wide in the open, target practice mode. No one can aim and take him out with one shot to the forehead??? Please, lol.

Second, obviously none of the writers hired a military expert. These people randomly shoot at inanimate objects, wasting countless rounds of ammo for nothing...and when they do shoot at people...it’s helter skelter style, all out, no pause. Any military force will tell you that you shoot in quick short controlled bursts, it’s more effective, and you are not wasting bullets.

Third...flat tummy Maggie has been pregnant since season six, nuff said, lol...

Glad I read these before I bothered with the premiere. I think I'll just wait till the end and binge. Or possibly forget all about it and never get to it.

I'm very scared for the wrong reasons.

They're juxtaposing the current timeline with two possible flash forwards. One where Ricks succeds, one where he goes overboard and gets everybody killed.

That's Lost territory. Me scared.

Spoilers ahead!

I'm with you. I know it's just the season premiere and there's a long way to go but gee whiz, Rick and crew had Negan out in the open, they were behind cover and armed to the teeth. They shoot as accurately as storm troopers. When they do open fire, they are wasting valuable rounds into the building. So much for Rick saying "only one has to die" over and over as they took out five lookouts and fired indiscriminately into the building (women? Children?)...

On another note... Judith is growing right along but Maggie's pregnancy doesn't seem to be showing yet... Maybe I wasnt paying enough attention. And Daryll's motorcycle ride to lead the zombies to the compound always showed him riding along at a good speed as the rambling zombies seemed to always keep up. it felt like the zombie herd might not have traveled as far as the story needed unless the shots were not shown in real time, but the Daryl shots were showing what he had been doing earlier in the "day".

I like the show in places but I wish there was a direction they could go other than "meet even-more-heinous villain this time and overcome."

I had no idea the season premiere was tonight until I saw the show on the cover of the Sunday paper TV listings this morning.. talk about being out of the loop

Thought the premiere was decent, but basically it felt like more of the same from last season, which I was not a fan of. I mean, there's Negan just standing there, a total sitting duck to anyone with a scope, and no one takes a shot. Even the actor who plays Eugene called that crap out on Talkind Dead..
