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.

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.

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.

I like Negin as the ultimate bad guy. He'd make a good law and order president. LOL

They got too formulaic. Big death at every midseason. Not to mention following the books way too closely. Of course with Rick and Maggie leaving they will now have to hue far from the books. Should breath some life back into it.

Worth repeating (particularly to the innumerate TV media).
Broadcast primetime entertainment ratings fall every season, and within seasons from Fall to Spring, so tying or setting new all time ratings lows is the norm, not the exception.

Program ratings measure the viewing of the avg minute of an entire show (incl commercials).

Commercial ratings measure the viewing of the avg minute of the commercials only.

Only commercial viewing matters for ad revenue/pricing.

Shows like this really need to end before they die of low ratings. Go out on somewhat of a high note rather than get put out of its misery.

AMC has a new streaming service and to get anyone to use it they’re offering new episodes of TWD a day earlier than their broadcast premiere, so that isn’t helping the TV ratings either.

Could have been a cool show but it’s just stupid.
