As much as I enjoy this show but my common sense just refuse to let me fall for the whole zombies constantly eating people business. Dead people walk but can't run. Alive people can run. So run. It's that simple to stay alive. You don't even need to fight them and kill them.
3 Thoughts After Completing ‘The Walking Dead’:
It is a TRAVESTY that I have to rate this series a 7, because it’s had so many level-10 moments throughout its long run. It was a global sensation for a reason. But some seasons were stronger than others, and later storytelling didn’t seem to come as naturally, and effectively, as it once did. Still, nobody can deny this show’s epic impact on pop culture.
The best part of this show? THE CAST. The barrage of faces that’ve come and gone have been immense, and never lacked quality. Every single one of these actors nailed it, even when the writing failed them. They are the heart and soul of this story. And I’ve gotta throw Greg Nicotero in there too. So. Much. Talent.
Yeah, it should’ve ended earlier. I feel like that’s a general consensus amongst everyone. Story and proper closure were seemingly sacrificed for cash. But it IS worth the ride. Even tho it can occasionally be a challenging one.
Oh Shet , fantastic season 7 episode 1
To be specific 9.7
this is a show about people, not about zombies!
best series
The best show on earth for sure !
Used to be my favorite show, then it kept going, and going, and going, but unlike the energizer bunny this has run out of batteries and needs to set an end destination before it walks itself dead without any viewers left.
Would have been best if it had ended when they showed up at Alexandria and Rick heard the kids playing, ya know, before they all got murdered too.
shame there is such lousy conversations for such a good series... last nights took a twist which i liked, going back in time to give us a insight into some people are are like what they are.
It's very good... Is amazing!
So far so good can't wait to see more
S01E01: Woah, this is going to be an awesome show!
S10E04: ARRGH Make it stop!
Am I the only person in the world that notices than Lauren Cohan now has a thicker southern accent than ever before?! I went back and checked damn it...I'm not crazy.
And its finished! The first ever show I fell in love with. Its had its major ups and downs but overall it was a solid show filled with emotion, intense scenes and loveable characters.
The earlier seasons were definitely The Walking Dead's "prime" but the show never failed to somewhat deliver. I'll hold this show very fondly and very closely in my heart and remember it as the TV masterpiece it was.
If you've never watched The Walking Dead and you're reading this, give it a chance and join the TWD Family, it'll be rough at times but boy it'll be worth every second.
Thank you, The Walking Dead 2010 - 2022
Not as good after season 3 but I am still watching whenever a new episode comes out. Still my favorite TV show.
i love this series..
1-6 are 5/5
6-8 4/5
9-11 so far 4/5
one of my favorite shows
Decent enough episode glad to see Negan finally getting some more screen time!
I'm watching through Netflix so I'm stuck on season 9. This show started out great. It got real boring in the middle up until Neegan showed up. Once he was taken down it became boring again. The meandering story grinds your interest down. It becomes so predictable too. Every time something good happens or a character experiences happiness it's solely to contrast impending doom. Season 9 could not have been worse. What did they do with Rick? Seriously, how do you write a main character out like that? I can get behind a time skip, it can be fun to see how a future can play out. Two time skips in one season where Maggie and a whole damn war collapsing the kingdom get written out off screen is some terrible bullshit. I can't wait to see how they screw up season ten.
Edit: I've now finished it. What a waste of time. Because the spinoffs continue the story in several branches (three is it?), there is no real end to this festering corpse of a show. Watch season 1 and stop if you value your time. If you don't value your time, watch until Megan twirls his bat around then end it. If want to waste your life watching crap like I did then there's one or two good things by the end.
That was a great movie bybthe way
mehhhhh
Another show killed?
Amazing ring-a memories-and Rick became a monster
Very nice episode. Is an amazing memories. Rick became a monster!
I'm watching the first season again and it's funny, in the first episode is a Zombie-Child who is grabbing her Teddy. So at that moment in the show the Zombies are not complete stupid.
The first season is still the best of all.
OMG... Season 7 premiere was hard core! The most intense TV I've seen to date, and be aware there is a lot of gore in this episode, even for TWD. I know why they put ads in episodes now, for the views to catch their breath! Enjoy all!
crap show , takes to long. lots of blabla. trying to extend it as long as possible. waste of time
COOOOOOOOOOOOOORAAAAL
WE HAV 2 SURVIVE CORAL
Way to end the season!!! YAY!
But Negan is still funny
Shit show has finally ended.
Great show and I love it, rumours say it can last for ages! Season 12 and beyond! In a way I hope it does, I have enjoyed all 5 Seasons. Well season 3 got a bit boring with the same old same old. I have never read the comics so I don't know how close it is following but I hope that they don't just keep repeating the same thing over and over.
I think 3 stars is enough for me right now, i did really enjoy the show season 1 and 2 and half way through season 3 but after that i just kinda got bored and after they killed the governor i just got even more bored as i loved to hate that man, but i will continue to watch as i have watched the past seasons, maybe season 5 will have me excited for it to be on.
Yes, the show get bad and they streched it hard. But, TWD is like being in a toxic relationship. She is bad for you and you know it, but you can't let her go, you're too attached at this point. And the numeros spin-offs are like her kids from another dude.
damn so much talking talking and talking in this show pffff
Why would someone be guarding the wall with one arrow in the bow and no extra :man_facepalming_tone3:
Holy hell the scene with maggie in that shopping center was intense, haven’t felt that in awhile.
Kudos to the writer that finally figured out that if you’re holding a weapon head to head with someone you cant just pet go with one hand to grab something because you will lose, better yet to use your foot and then grab it :clap_tone3:
Save yourself the torture. This show has gone down hill. Don’t bother wasting your time watching like I did.
This once was the best show on TV but now it’s the worst show ever. Anyone starting this show, I would recommend watching the first 4-5 seasons, after that you can say you’ve seen the walking dead.
Garbage, garbage, garbage. This really should’ve been a 3 season (at most) show. The nonsense in the later seasons has ruined the show. The continued storyline makes sense from a graphic novel perspective but really doesn’t work when translating the same story to the screen for past 10 years. Because the story line is the same at every arc; a new set of assholes are introduced, the main characters flex their muscles first, then they get their arrogant bitch asses handed to them, they become humbled, regroup, a big flight sequence happens, they win & become arrogant bitches again, and the whole thing starts all over again. Watch the first 3 seasons & skip the rest.
They had the same loop of storyline repeated in every season: They run, they find shelter, they go out for food, someone gets bitten, they get overrun, and they have to find somewhere new. Rinse and repeat for like 10 seasons.
It’s basically a soap opera with zombies.
Fuck this show. Go watch Black Summer. They have lower budget & do a better job then this has been show.
OK season 9 episode 8 made this new season worth it. I hope when it comes back the writers don’t keep putting in nonsense talking parts that lead to nowhere except waste time. Can’t wait to see the new villains when this show returns.
This show should be renamed to Talking You to Death because you’ll turn into a Zombie from watching it.
At this point any of the CW shows are better than this because there is entertainment in them. This show has like 1% entertainment & 99% talking.
Skip this show, it’s gone down hill.
let me tell you something
When I saw the beginning montage of people I knew what was gonna come. The couple, the mother, the random dude getting hugged by an extra who walked off trying not to look for recognition of the behind-the-scenes team. And then, yet another lousy speech that would only rile up the most fervent cult-member... and boy did they act like cult-members.
And yet I kept watching.
The episode got a bit better when Ezekiel's character was in view but it balanced dreadfully close to the abyss when the stupid cat and mouse game with nerdy evil Carl look-a-like began. Guess 3 meters isn't that far in zombiepaces ? Oh no, wait, it's 12 meters all of a sudden.
And yet I kept watching.
Upside was Zeke's axe-wielding friend affirming that he is indeed a cool dude. Where's the tiger... don't tell me they'll... Oh it's Carol being bad-ass... Great. "I couldn't stop them"... Besides shooting the tires, shooting them at the start, below the truck, hell throw a grenade for all I care... but no... let's let in slow shambling zombies instead. Oh and shooting in the air, lots of shooting cuz WAR. War is lots of shooting right?
Let's not even start about the chase scene.
Where's the suspense, where's the tension, where's CORRAL, Negan, where's a decent action director and intellect? Where 's the place they got all those bullets from all of a suddon. Where's the creativity and writing that isn't done by 10-year old kids. Again, certain scenes with Ezekiel were good to great and in general the build up and break-down of this character was nicely done but then the show managed to do the lasy thing again and... kill off the tiger. Once more they threw a fan-favorite character "to the lions" and killed it off cuz... it's a bleak world and shocker right?! Game of Thrones did it right? Kill your darlings, guys? Guys? Look a useless unimaginative and unnecessary death of a loved character!
As previous commenters stated: I cared more for the death of this CGI animal than I did any of the 50 idiotic people in Rick's gang. The little kid at the end walking towards a broken Zeke was good but that was most likely built on my soft spot for self-sacrificing underdogs, kids and my own disappointments with, to and from children. The rest was just... drek... again.
And yet I roll my eyes and sigh.
I'm almost done with this show, how many more episodes this season? It'll be the third series I stopped watching voluntarily. There are no characters left I still care about (besides Negan, but he's gonna die anyways right, Ezekiel and his buddy, who are both most likely gonna die before the season's end) and for me it can all just end. I'll watch Fear the Walking Dead instead... that show I rolled my eyes at before it started cause it sounded so derivative... The irony.
Absolute chore to watch beyond S1. My recommendation for anyone who still hasnt seen this: watch S1, treat it as a miniseries and run away as fast as you can. I got too deep and the completionist in me demands I hate-watch it. It's hot Georgia garbage from S2 on you'll only grow to hate all the characters and just want everyone to die...except Daryl probably. I'm team horde and extinction now, look at what they did to me!
Surely the later seasons are not very "apocaliptic" and they lost the apocaliptic vibe, but the show kept its "character development" part very well written throughout all episodes. If you started watching this show for zombies then you might get a little disappointed. The show gets a lot of hate for killing certain characters which is something interesting given that the show's antagonists are zombies and bad people.
I’m allowed to be a little sad.
So it has come to an end. The Walking Dead started strong, went downhill after S6 but picked up again towards the end of S10. Despite its ups and downs, TWD will forever be a show that I cherish — for its compelling writing and the great many characters that I have come to love. Genuinely contented with the ending, thought they did a great job wrapping up the story and building up for the spin-off.
last episodes are back in the same amazingness from s01
I can't believe I've forced myself to watch all of it. Seasons up to 8 were good, but from 8 onwards it's meh. Season 7 was peak, I fucking love Negan. Season 9 and 10 are so boring. I agree with others, it gets repetitive a lot. At least they wrapped the series up alright. Not very important, but my favourites were everyone from the Grimes' family, Negan, Daryl, Glenn, Maggie and some others.
This is a weird one that bucks the trends of most of my other show reviews and recommendations. The first 4ish seasons of this show were some of the best seasons to ever appear on television. THEN there is periods of lulls...then greatness...then lulls. Does the greatness come from the lulls and world building? Could the lulls be called fluff and cut out? I don't have the answer to that. I wholeheartedly love this show, but also cannot recommend to anyone to watch it start to finish. My average season review below includes everything (including the lackluster single season spin off). My recommendation is that this is a must see show that you have to get through "Bad Negan".
Average Season Review: 7.96/10 (Includes Tales of the Walking Dead Spin-Off)
Recommendation: Must See (For Post Apocalyptic Drama Fans)
EDIT (After Dead City, Daryl Dixon, & The Ones Who Live)
All three spin-offs were quite solid, progressively better with each one. While The Ones Who Live was never as good as peak Walking Dead, it was darn close. That mini series is a must see for any Walking Dead fan as it hits all things wonderful about this world in essentially self contained episodes!
Average Season Review: 8/10
tv show was the walking dead, ya bit
That certainly was the walking dead. ya bit
Finally over! A good show overall with its ups and downs.
Can't wait to see Daryl visiting Paris tho /s
This show should have ended after S5 or even before that - it would’ve been a 9/10 at least. The rest is just not worth it tbh. Shame really…
This show makes me show my "O" face every times it airs lol. #officespaceshoutout
Just end already. For god's sake.
The Best TV Show had ever seen !
This Show is one of the best Zombie Tv Series!
But the comics and the game, are much better! :)
I do not know why I'm still watching this, but this is so bad I'm ashamed to say anything to stay decent
3 years for one season,they should stop producing it I think
So as I'm nearing the tail end of Season 3, it dawned on me, walking dead has the usual pattern of the b grade show - mid season bloat. Totally ramps up in last ~3/4 shows to exhilarating heights making u all but forgive the mid season transgression.
It started great and ended badly. Same as game of thrones.
Watch till Rick Grimms Ride the hilicopter.
Season 8,9,10,11 is dead to me
this is one of my top favourite tv shows of all time! gotta love those zombies :D
seasons 1-6 are cool, season 7 is disgusting. not watching further.
Walking Dead has really gone down hill for me. Not as good as what it used to be.
This used to be such an incredible show, so sad to see it go downhill like it has. Thankfully it is finally ending, I wish they would have gone out on top quite a few seasons ago like Breaking Bad did.
My friend, Goldeneye01 introduced me to this show. Liked it a lot, but found some of the campervan/caravan material a bit slow? Maybe Im just a blood-fiend :) I thought the actress who also played Sarah Tancredi in Prison Break has improved, I think she's better in this than in Prison Break.
I'm a big zombie fan and a lot of people I admire are involved in this show. A Breaking Bad director and a Lost director each directed one episode.
That being said, the characters and the writing for this show are pretty poor. They're doing a good job with making the zombies seem realistic, but the characters seem fake and shallow. A lot of the plot devices are equally predictable.
I'm hoping they can do more with the second season. I'll still be watching, but it's been a disappointment so far.
The first five or six seasons were amazing! Some of the most engaging, awe-inducing TV I've seen. If they had the sense to quit while they were ahead, this would've gone down as a truly phenomenal show. But, as it all too often happens with shows of this caliber, they didn't, and unsurprisingly the quality of the show dropped precipitously. Seasons 7 and 8 were poor, 9 was decent enough, and 10 was genuinely awful. The covid-era "bonus episodes" were truly the icing on the cake, as all but one of them were absolute garbage (chasing a mouse for 40 minutes?!?! GTFO.) and really underscored the destitution in the writer's room at this point. But the show runners don't even have the decency to hobble across the finish line with dignity. Instead they announce the introduction of multiple spin-offs for multiple characters after the show supposedly ends. They ALREADY have Fear and the World Beyond, so this makes how many spin-offs? 6? 7? 8? I've actually lost count. Just do TWDverse and its audience a huge favor and put us both out of our misery...please...
Exposition upon exposition upon exposition upon exposition upon exposition. I used to care about a main character being killed but now I just wish they'd all die. Gone from The Walking Dead to Dead Show Walking.
Really promising indeed!
This show is painful to watch. Just skip forward.
Uhh...what exactly is The Walking Monger?
I really enjoyed the first season and stuck with it through the second, despite it feeling repetitive. I gave up in the third because it was too samey and the interpersonal dynamics I enjoyed in the first season were lost. I would recommend first season and maybe second but no more.
I like the horror in it and the cast is not bad. Above that are their no or little special effects in,that makes it real to experience to watch.
They started off great and with awesome production values.
Love zombie apocalypse and the end of the world. But last 3 episodes are less amusing, it feels like they are searching what to do or attracting a different audience.
They invest in the cast to get you to like them and then they die or leave or get left behind. Really they are not that likable.
Hope next season is like episode 1. Which is by far the best.
Just my 2 cents
Dude best show ever ever
It got very very very boring. Many say, season 1-6 were good. I would say 1-3.
perfect untill season 5... then it got washed down and stuck on a rinse/repeat cycle. lost interest after season 6, continued "watching" untill end of season 8 wishing for the show to get good again... I gave up sorry.
I had a feeling that this show would be something great from season one. I love the introduction of Negan. I love to hate that guy. He definitely brings new excitement to the series, but it has me questioning what is season 8 going to be about? I guess we'll have to wait and see.
Lemme tell you how this series is:
The starting episodes and the ending episodes are goddamn epic no doubt about it, but why do you feel it that way?
That's because the rest of the episodes are complete big pile of dried up horseshit that has been dragging along a concrete road, so when you see something satisfying even if it's by a small degree, it feels epic. And that is the successful formula of this show.
It's gonna keep dragging and continue like that because it's nowhere near the ending
And that's what it is.
I have officially decided to stop watching this TV show. It has been dragged on for too long. This first season I was so hyped about, it seemed like such a crazy idea 'What if you wake up like that one day?'. But after 9 seasons it has become very boring. The episodes are predictable and boring. Every episode ends with a cliffhanger and the next episode is exciting for a few minutes and then gets boring really fast. I wish they would've quit when it was still a hype so people would be bummed out it ended, in stead of being bored to death by a story line that has been dragged out for too long.
very nice story line and acting
Absolutely brilliant television show, one of the best i have seen in a long time!
Thank FUCK Shane is dead. He was one irritating motherfucker.
first season: awesome
second: utter crap
I HAVE SEEN EVERY SINGLE EPISODE SO FAR. THIS IS BY FAR MY FAVORITE SHOW OF ALL TIME. I just wish that Darryl and Caroll would get together already.
Kind of a disappointing show considering the source material. About half of seasons are good, I'd recommend watching the spin off show instead (Skip the first 3 seasons though).
Didn't like all the dead people
love this show so much!
Don't care about the fact of it all
One Of Few TV Shows That You wish they make more seasons and you'll never get bored
:heart:Amazing Awesome Incredible +Marvelous Show:heart:
Awesome:heart: Amazin +Incredible, marvelous show
awesome amazing incredible wonderful show
