I also would have pointed out that he was almost choked to death by Crazy Pete, so he might want to reconsider taking on a bigger man.
Because Spencer is spineless. That'll eventually get him killed.

This spending entire episodes focused on one out of four places? is ridiculous. Harkens back to the terrible writing of the series. If they're going to continue like this they need to adopt something like GOT where they can have one episode showing several different settings. But I have no hope of that. That 1.5 hr long episode was pretty bad.

It's getting harder and harder to tune in. If it wasn't the fact it was Sundays at 9pm and I've got nothing much going on, I'd probably be catching up later. First and last episodes seem to be the only important ones.

I wish they would just all go out in a blaze of glory, full frontal attack with pitchforks and spears against their ex-rocket launcher. I want to see Rick hit about 200 times, blood and body parts spraying everywhere, in slow motion.

That spineless shell of a former man. One eyed Carl is tougher than he is. And Enid needs to be walker food, but we can spare her, because she's Carls main squeeze now.

Oh, and I want to see the tiger eat Negan and Dwight. And Daryl can go down fighting against insurmountable odds.

The final scene a slow drone roll over the decimated armies, with only Carl and a pregnant Enid and Carol left alive, as they start the long walk to Colorado to join the survivors from "The Stand," and start a new story line.

Yes! Well, I would modify it to be Rick, Michonne, and Carol, but definitely going to Colorado to meet Randall Flagg.

From reading the recent posts I think that others are feeling that the show is stretching, getting a bit boring and at times ridiculous.
Roller skates that actually fit? though it looked like Enid had several pairs of socks on ? OKay but wouldn't those skates be all rusty from lying on the road for how many months or years?
It was a cute moment...


What is really bothersome is the supplies that keep popping up. When you thing about it there has been several large groups of people living near each other from the start of the series and Negan has been taking half of those found items. His group came in and cleared out Alexandria and they will return next week to take half of what? If you don't have anything even after scrounging the countryside what are they going to do?


Well from day one we have had to suspend our common sense that Zombies exist to enjoy the show so I guess we need to give the writers/ producers other passes as well.

hi folks -have not been online as much lately. the show is getting really disjointed. Game of Thrones can show 3-4-5 settings in an episode and maybe drops one setting per week. TWD drops every setting except one most weeks, it seems. And, now we get another setting (Oceanside) coming up next week. So, we're going to have characters in Alexandria, Hilltop, the Kingdom, the Sanctuary and now Oceanside. So, a character may only show up in 2 episodes per half season. And, we have GoT winning all the awards, while TWD gets nothing.

I complained about this back in season 4 when they had those two "bottle" episodes featuring the Governor. It wasn't bad on its own, but it would have worked WAY better if they had 10-12 minutes of Governor flashback at the start or end of each episode instead of shutting down the entire rest of the show for 2 weeks.

Default This season is in free fall ratings down 25-30%

Unfortunately, it is now a fact that this season is one of the worse.

https://www.yahoo.com/tv/walking-dea...190236582.html
Viewership dropped 25 percent for the season’s second episode down to 12.5 million. Such a drop may have been expected somewhat given all the hype around the premiere resolving last season’s fateful circle-of-victims cliffhanger. But then the third episode dropped too (11.7 million), and so did the fourth (11.4 million) and now the fifth (11 million), with TWD marking a low point for the show since 2013.
