Walking Dead without Rick is like 24 without Jack Bauer. Lauren Cohan (Maggie) is leaving the show too.

He looks bored and tired in it, and Lic is too talented to stay another 2 years. I think Reedus will sign up. He makes more cash at conventions than the actual show lol

I don't know how many times any actor can do the same angst-ridden, greasy-haired self-flagellation. There hasn't been anything new for Rick to do for at least two seasons.

I said that if Negan hadn't been killed in a horrible way by the end of this season, I was done with the Walking Dud. Now that they're losing just about everyone anyway, it's a good time to bail.

Never watched it after Season 2. I’m surprised it’s still going. Nine years of evading zombies and sociopaths is enough I think.

Never saw the show, but sounds like someone else who never heard of Shelley Long. Completely understandable—Shelley who?

My advice to the wannabe John Barrymore is to make hay while the sun shines. After this it's going to be "Rick who?".

If they were brave and real artists, they would bring a Trump like character in.

If they could do it with love and respect for the character, it would revitalize the entire storyline and give them another 6-years of good shows. (And lots of money)

After watching “The Walking Dead”for the last few years I have come to the point that I’m getting bored with the series anyway.Maybe Andrew Lincoln sees it the same way.

This show seems to go no where and there seems to be little prospect for the characters on the show.

From what I have read they ruined this show by following the Negan narrative for far too long.

The show where everyone has an automatic and rounds are scarce. Yeah, that one. And no one thought of making it to an island on the Eastern seaboard and deal with a finite number of dead.

The show has sort of run it course. Many of their ‘plots’ are repetitive.

Nine seasons is more than a good run.

Like many people I stopped watching last season. The fact that the show descended into dull suck is just part of it, I think. When the show started, Obummer was taking office and everything seemed dreary and hopeless. TWD was the perfect catharsis.

Now...I am sustained by the tears of the libtards! Their rage makes me feel happy again! Thank you PRESIDENT Trump!

I like Norman Reedus (”Daryl”), both the actor and the character, but I'm doubtful that Daryl can carry the series in the lead role.

Lauren Cohan (”Maggie”) is another favorite for me, but the whole story-line has become absurdly repetitive, so even if Maggie and Rick stayed, I think the show would get canceled anyway.

“Fear the Walking Dead” had a brilliant retrospective episode two weeks ago when we got to meet “Laura” (aka “Naomi”) and “John Dorrie” up close at John's creek side cabin.

Then, the wheels immediately fell off the story-line again a week ago when Alicia, and Strand, and Nick's old girlfriend decide to stage an insane face-to-face shoot out with about 25 “Vultures.”

So, what happens?

Alicia decides to shoot “Laura-Naomi” and John leaps in front of Laura and takes the bullet.

So, John, the most interesting character introduced in either series in many years, is now lying on the ground with a bullet in his chest!

I'm about to give up on both of these programs.

I am interested in next season, because they will be doing a lot of the things I have wanted them to do for a few seasons now. Cars will be non functional any more. They will be using horses a lot. And they will be trying to build with old technology rather than still fighting over what is left.

I’m guessing the new Muslim character will get a bigger role.
Rich Grimes will be missed. Carl is missed.
I loved Abraham’s character.
Maggie will probably go next season too. She made the mistake of
asking for more money. They will kill her off too.

I’ve been waiting for them to wake up and realize they’re in Purgatory like happened on “Lost.”

The show really should have ended five years ago. It’s the nature of the entertainment industry, once they have something popular they want to milk every last cent out of it.

They signaled the ending of the show last season when Maggie made a deal with some old hippy liberal woman agreeing that if Hilltop would give the woman all of their Monkees, 1910 Fruitgum Co. and Ohio Express 33 1/3 “vinyls”, she would give them a DIY handbook on how to unstop a toilet with a plunger and how to make ice cubes out of water. It’s over.
