[Rangi Guy]

Wasn't season long, just two episodes. Just over a winter break so it felt longer

[CopperTom]

Those 2 made sense to me. Both died around the same time in the comics.

Lol at Rick's snot bubble.

[CopperTom]

Cool.

It was violent?

Very.

Spoiler: show

And Glen's was especially fucked up.

similar to the comic. Great. Daryl's arc will be most interesting as that's not in the comic.

Yeah. I've kinda enjoyed the last couple seasons after years of hate watching because it looked like they were building something and there was a glint of a hopeful tone. If its just misery again that would suck.

[LoathedVermin72]

Of course it's just going to be misery again. Why would you expect anything else? That's all it's ever been and it's only grown more and more popular.

Whenever there's active promotion on the part of somebody else, whenever I see somebody all dolled up for a fancy photograph and someone's handing out flyers or whenever there's active promotion for something like that, as an imposition on my day, I hate all those people and I want them to fail. I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

[The Argonaut]

Quit piling on

[The Argonaut]

Quit piling on. We're in enough pain right now already

[E.H. Ruddock]

I don't understand the attraction to shows like this, Lost, The Leftovers, (Westworld maybe), etc. Shows that just sort of give you a really cool world, and then meander about in those worlds with no real direction for several seasons. It's like the lowest form of writing with really great FX on top of it. You should all quit this show and spend your nights watching High Maintenance and Insecure.

I have an irrational obsession with the apocalypse and dystopian futures. You keep watching your prissy documentaries and when the world ends don't come knocking on my bunker door. Oddly enough, my western states evac site isn't too far from where you live.

Hoop Dreams is a piece of shit

The "sunday dinner" scene towards the ends was heartbreaking. Particularly with

Spoiler: show

Glenn and his little boy on his lap.

Mrs Rangi got a bit choked up during this scene and a few other times during the episode. I swear I wasn't crying - I wasn't!!!!

[The Argonaut]

No tears came out, but they welled.

[Revelator]

That was fucking brutal for sure. I'm not easily disturbed by cable TV but goddamn, and Jeffrey Dean Morgan's sadistic portrayal was on point, but again almost too much so. The first kill was tolerable but I almost felt sick after the second one, especially the words that were uttered before the final blows.

[E.H. Ruddock]

Yeah that was really disturbing when he tried to speak

[Strat]

geezes christ. WTF.

Look, if this show is going to meander i will beo n board if its this brutal.

It was great to see Rick as a snot bubbling beaten down man. I dont get the hate for this show.

So that article brings up a lot of good points and im sure most would agree with them. However, why are people so emotionally invested in the thing that they feel they are being snubbed on a personal level? Entertainment Fandom again shows its head.
