*clears throat* I gotta be honest, I hate this show. I think it's absolutely terrible. To me, people project their desires of what the show SHOULD be onto what it really is. Every week, people watch this shit wanting an epic zombie survival romp, and they get a totally subpar and boring as fuck product but they stick around because the love for zombies is as elastic as it gets. I thought the first few episodes were promising, and from that point it just sucked to me. It has always appeared to me that people will go out of their way and make an effort to enjoy this because it's desirable to like a show with this concept. I did too, but I couldn't escape the disappointment. Anyway, carry on, actual Walking Dead fans. I gotta be honest, thinking that fans only watch a show because it is about zombies is retarded. Carry on Mr. I watched only watched a few episodes yet shit on the series.

The choice they made dulled the blow. Terrible way to end a season. Seriously, Walking Dead, go to hell.

This last half of season has been crazy exciting to me. Not digging the cliffhanger but that is out of sheer desperation to see what happened.

I loved it right up until the end. {Spoiler! Click to View...}It would've had such a huge impact to end the season with us seeing whoever it was dying. by the time October comes around it'll have been discussed and debated to death and we'll be like, "Oh that guy/chick. whatever."

Is that not enough of a sample size to have an opinion?

But I totally stand by my retarded statement that people only watch for zombies, because the rest is just a lame soap opera with terrible characters. Sorry for disagreeing with you.

Anyway, carry on, actual Walking Dead fans. the only reason I've continued watching is Daryl and Carol without them, or without a new character I actually care to see live, I'm just not that invested in it. I haven't caught up on the last season or two though, waiting for it to hit Netflix or the like.

Or could be that they enjoy the characters? Considering the huge following of the show and sayings like Daryl dies we'll riot. Yeah, all just zombies. Keep telling yourself that. Storyline? Nah. None of that either. Characters showing such depth. Hell Carol's ride from timid to almost Rambo alone. But you wouldn't know anything about that since you haven't watched.

I can't wrap my head around her wanting to leave. For me it is like a roller coaster. Some seasons I like more than others. One and two are high but this last season is up there with the first and second. Everyone has different season favorites.

Negan and Carol are my favorites. Daryl's interaction with his brother and his concern for Carol's daughter were interesting. Since then he's just kind of there. I like him but they really need to do something with him.

Relax...I don't like your favorite show. Don't take it so personally. I've watched three and a half seasons, if you're offended I haven't watched all six maybe you should consider that a show shouldn't take six seasons to hook you in. But please, continue to insist I haven't watched it..

Click to View...}Also I'm a little fucking pissed that Carol didn't even say bye to Daryl. She said goodbye to her screw daddy. That's messed up. LOL.

I'll concede that it seems you guys actually like the characters. Fine, that's fair. I personally think they're all pretty boring.

Everyone has different season favorites. i can honestly say that I couldn't tell you what happened in which season I just like watching it, it's kinda like a really long horror movie and you're just waiting to see who bites it next and you hope it's not a character you actually empathize with. (for me, that's carol and Daryl, both are fucked up emotionally but still try and do good overall, even if they have to do bad along the way. I like that.) The rest of the characters, to me, are just annoying and whiny.

But please, continue to insist I haven't watched it.. Losing interest is fine. I've done that with plenty of shows. I could care less what you like and don't like. You don't see me getting upset over sports. Nothing personal. If you are going to be honest so am I. Especially when you put a statement out that fans only stick around because it is zombies. Yeah, that is a retarded statement. And I stand corrected. You went longer than a few episodes. BUT...we are going on season 7. You punked out long ago.
