Sorry about the added crap characters. They don't show up until I go to post the article so I can't edit them out.
Has become? LOL! Our daughter is addicted. And Talking Dead afterwards.
I typically tune out shows about the occult such as this. But I have to say that the subject is quite limited and can only be retold so many times.
Can’t wait for The Squawking Dead. Or the Falking Dead starring Columbo.
Although others have different solutions, you can also simply replace all of the apostrophes and quotation marks in the excerpt with ' and " ", as opposed to the slanted ones which don't come through properly.
Below is an example of both types of apostrophes and quotation marks in a pre-post composition AND the result after posting or previewing both:
Yeah, they were never the same after Jerry Garcia died.
I like the show, but I have to agree. Its become repetitive. They’re going to have to find a way to inject some new life into it or I think the viewers are going to start leaving it.
Z nation is a lot more fun.
It started out as a cheap WD knockoff but they started adding humor and made it great.
It’s just a TV show. The writer seems to think it’s a big deal. It’s one of the few shows I watch regularly, but it’s getting repetitive, like any show that’s been on for years. The biggest plot holes this season have been characters trapped by, or supposedly eaten by, the zombies, who suddenly come running down the road yelling “Open the gate!”. My only other annoyance is the number of British actors in the show. Can’t they find any American actors?
This season sucks and Fear of the Walking dead was so bad i’d rather watch the Home Shopping Channel
There were a couple of good episodes this season. But they really need to move this show along.
I used to watch Talking Dead
but now Im waiting for Smelling Dead
How many ways can you hack out brains (that's a rhetorical question -- I don't really want to know the answer)?
But "the most boring"?
Not so much. TV's still a "vast wasteland" and most of what's on is worse.
The characters do seem to have got stuck in an endless loop, though -- going to some new community each year and learning to cope with their differences with those who are already there.
That's a familiar pattern for television series -- whether it's some lonely wanderer in the Old West, or Captain Kirk visiting a new planet every week -- but TWD doesn't quite make it work.
Maybe they're satisfied with some dramatic texture at the expense of excitement -- which is strange for a show that relies so much on violence, monster make-up, and crowd scenes.
I think they try too hard to be cerebral. This is supposed to be entertainment. A few more tight jeans and wet shirts on the ladies, more harrowing escapes, and a LOT less philosophizing and introspection on the parts of all the characters.
I actually find SciFi Z Nation to be more entertaining now. It doesn’t attempt to take itself seriously, much more “tongue in cheek”. A little cheesy on the effects at times, short on logic, a few more hot chicks along the way. More what a zombie story ought to be like. This ought to be [nearly] mindless entertainment IMO.
I never understood the popularity of this series. Although I loved many of the classic zombie films, including Night of the Living Dead, and Return of the Living Dead (actually a comedy of sorts). I couldn't get how they could take this scenario and drag it out to a weekly TV series. I mean, it's basically the same crap over and over again, each episode. My brother, his wife, and adult kids are addicted to this series as well. When they're not watching it, they're on the phone or internet discussing it.
That is what is wrong this season. . .slow and hardly moving.
Trying to build for a grande finale, I suppose, but come one. . .DO SOMETHING!!
“This is supposed to be entertainment. A few more tight jeans and wet shirts on the ladies, more harrowing escapes, and a LOT less philosophizing and introspection on the parts of all the characters.”
That would work.
Inject new "life" into the "Walking Dead"? :)
And as for defending yourself against human raiders and such, if you're so damned reluctant to fight your enemies, then just lay down and let them kill you. But PLEASE!!!! spare us any more angst-ridden drabble and get about the business of eliminating zombies.
Oh, and wash your hair, Rick. You too, Daryl.
Well, Kat, if it is THAT boring, turn the channel.
If that doesn’t work, try the ON-OFF button.
It is a shame that evil AMC forces you to watch such a boring show.
