Re: The Walking Dead

Post by nocera »

AMC has two spinoffs in the works. Walking Dead and Better Call Saul. With Mad Men and Breaking Bad finished, they're in need of a new big hit. They will be in a ton of trouble when Walking Dead ends if they don't find a new hit show soon. I could see Better Call Saul being huge and really catching on. I'm skeptical of the Walking Dead spinoff...

I feel like The Walking Dead is the type of show that's going to hit a wall soon and lose massive amounts of viewers. With so much of the audience being young, they're going to get bored with the same old stories, no end in sight, etc. I feel like it's got one or 2 good years left ratings wise.

Which is why they need to hurry up and get to Negan. Season 3 and 4 in the prison just sapped so much life from the show.

Very good episode. Surprised they wrapped up the Terminus stuff so quickly. I was afraid they'd drag it on half the season. Maybe the writers are catching on.

This show got so much better once Shane and Lori were gone.

Really sets up to parallels to the comic book
Spoiler:
They do get Morgan back into the fold so hope he finds everyone.
Adding Father Gabriel in now leads to the Hunters story line. Wonder if they will tie an of it in to the people that overthrew Terminus to force Gareth's people to go canibal.
I expect this season to end in Alexandria, next season dealing with living in Alexandria and then ending with Nagan killing someone.

The cannibal stuff seemed like it should have been explored more last night. I hope Gareth sheds some life when he comes back in the fold.

Fantastic episode. I don't follow the comics and I was worried we were going to be in Terminus for at least 5 episodes.

On Talking Dead Gimple mentioned that people who look like good people and can help are given the food, after they eat it they are told what they just ate and how things work. If they accept Terminus or what it is they can join. If they freak out they go to the train cars.

Abraham wouldn't stop with getting to DC so they decided to eat them. Rick's group was going to be invited to stay until he figured outn what was going on already.

Not sure how much was revealed during the epsiode but that's what they had set up in the plot.
