Maybe it's time to end the show. It's had a respectable run.

The last season was kind of stupid. The whole Negin thing has gone on WAY too long.

It’s hard to make myself care about it much anymore to be honest.

The most notable thing about this season so far is everyone seems to be going interracial relationship crazy.

Up against the Red Sox and the Pats? That rating is wonderful.

It started too soon this year.

I have to admit, the storyline seems a little moldy.

They should have let Negin bleed out.

You are either hooking up with another race or the same sex.

That’s a little tedious.

I don’t watch it on Sundays. I do watch it later in the week. Do I count? I imagine there are many thousands more that do as I do.

Are they setting up Maggie to be a new heavy? She seems to have gone darker.

I think the viewers finally caught on that it isn’t real . . . I mean, heck, what about all the zombies wearing nice, clean clothes and none of them are even nekkid. Dang, I figured it out in the first season! What took them so long?

Nine years.... that’s a heckuva run. Like most series though the producers beat it into the ground instead of stopping before it all gets too old. I never watched it after the second season.

Could it be the continued litany of tactical and strategic CFs made by Rick?

Yeah, I feel like I’m being socially preached to by a TV show, and I do not like to be socially preached to by TV shows.

It has no point.

The plot is stuck and they’ve killed off anyone you would care about.

I got so sick of the nihilistic tone of the show that I just dont care anymore. People like a show with adversity, but we want a just reward in the end, not just more of the same with the writers pulling the rug out from these people every season.

And those zombies should all be rotted by now.

I watched till the baseball bat came on.

I grew up where it is filmed, People, South of Atlanta are sick of these people trying to buy elections. Been pouring in millions for Democrats, they have been losing.

It’s a show that has run it’s course, like a lot of them. For instance on CBS NCIS, Criminal Minds, NBC, Law & Order SUV, these shows have been on longer than anybody thought possible, and they have all run their course.

Series sort of lost it for me when they killed off Glenn and Abraham. Not only were they two of the more likable characters, but their deaths were just too graphic even for a such a graphic series.

You do count.
It’s called Live + 3.
It means live viewers plus viewers up to 3 days after live.
It’s another way to track ratings.

I haven’t watched it since I first saw that stupid eenie meenie miney moe promo featuring Negan.

I do, however, still enjoy watcing past episodes.

You know, when the show was actually riveting.

I got hooked when I was channel surfing and came upon the church scene. I thought it would take several episodes to resolve(and I wanted to see what happened to the baby), but then BAM... it was OVER.
