The Walking Dead: Season 8

[Gorn Captain]

Frozen zombies.
Best idea ever.
Each winter you can take your time, removing heads.

Lately my fav character on Walking Dead is any generic zombie.

No lousy back stories, no endless contemplational videos ... Just pure unadulterated hunger (see Little Shop of Horrors) Bring on the meat!

I feel nothing for Rick on losing his son. EVERYBODY in that world has lost loved ones...EVERYBODY.

Get over yourself, Rick...

Go Negan!

[Hector]

I’ve been suggesting that for years, Mikey...

At least they get to rest a few months outta the year, lol...

[Mikey]

Wish one of these people would come up with the revelation to GO TO CANADA -- where zombies freeze stiff in the winter time.

It's amazing how much Rick's daughter has grown in the time that Maggie has been pregnant and she keeps getting THINNER!

It's probably just a touch of indigestion. One big burp, and Maggie will be back to normal again....

[megoapesnut]

And how many seasons has Maggie been pregnant? Yeah, I know, time elapses differently than the episodes, but this is getting laughingly ridiculous...

I do agree that the show still needs a lot of work, and it's doubtful it will ever come back as it once was.
Yes, Rick should have snuck up to Negan's car and then use his bullets. But then again, he just lost his son, and his mind isn't in "cool and calm" mode. When is it ever?
And yes, Negan could have been killed many times over, annoying, to say the least.

But last season, I was shaking my head over every scene, with bad writing and stupid decisions left and right. These last few felt a little more balanced, and I do like that Negan's henchmen are given some "meat on the bone". At this point, they are the most interesting characters.
Great characters like Carol are now just extras, which is disappointing, true.

And yes, Maggie seems to be getting slimmer every day. Must be the low rations she is on....

One last thing. I do like that a new character shows up and says "give me your record albums!"
If she asks for a copy of Star Wars (original version of course) next, she's ok in my book....

I am really getting tired of Negan. As much as I like Jeffrey Dean Morgan, his character is getting tiresome. They seriously need to introduce "The Whisperers" from the comic book. Also, it truly is a shame that Steven Ogg (Simon), will most likely be written off this season -- he is fantastic! I still love the show though. The characters/story-lines are still engaging.

On a side-note, Norman Reedus really is a nice guy. When I met him a few years ago at a Comic-Con, because his line was so long, he actually left for 30 minutes, came back, and handed out pizzas for people to eat while waiting in line -- cool guy!

[Hector]

How many times has Rick told Negan he was gonna kill him? 20 times already? I lost count, lol...

[Hector]

Simon and Dwight are the best two characters...

[hedrap]

And what's up with Hillary Clinton and her van o'food?

That is who she's supposed to represent, isn't she?

It's interesting that the new exec looks to be bypassing the Whisperers as a full plot. I think that's a smart move as it was pretty mediocre. I can see that being a mid-season storyline on their way to the mega-colony.

The best part of the show, hands down, is Simon. He's like a Michael Mann character from Miami Vice stepped into the Twilight Zone and ended up in a zombie world. The show is gonna suck without him.

I originally thought Jeffrey Dean Morgan would want out at the end of this season, but killing him is too predictable at this point as it would make this story the exact same as the Governor's. I guess he becomes the new Shane. Imagine if they killed Rick and not Negan...

The last question is, do they keep Hilltop/Kingdom/Sanctuary as a subplot, or do they wipe out so many people, the first half of next season is a wagontrain of survivors to the mega-colony? I'm thinking the latter as it creates a clean break and allows for a reboot of sorts.

[drquest]

I agree, the past two episodes have been better, but the entire series is just off center very bad and I don't know if they will make it back to must see TV.

And what's up with Hillary Clinton and her van o'food?

....

[Iron Mego]

And of course Jadis well eff up her revenge plot and Negan will escape. Blah blah blah.
