The show is over ANYWAY.
The first five seasons of TWD were some of the most enjoyable TV I've ever watched.
Season 6, I started having my doubts which increased with Season 7 and the Negan storyline. By the end of Season 7, I was exhausted. I haven't watched a minute of Season 8, having completely thrown in the towel.
Honestly, they could kill off pretty much every character and start over from scratch, and it would be an improvement.
Better yet. Let's just start with Day One of the Zombie Apocalypse in an entirely new location with an entirely new cast, say Denver.
It has sucked for years.
Wouldn’t most of the zombies be piles of goo, eaten by vermin, or turned to zomcicles in the wintertime by season 9? You wouldn’t have new zombies.
