no. it sucks and is terrible. boring, repetitive, aimless, and the bad acting has gotten extreme since it's more "dramatic"

don't forget random zombies popping up, even in open spaces when they'd be identified far away

You need to stop watching shows I watch.

Tried to watch just to see what the buzz was about. Made it through the first season but never really invested myself in the show or the characters. Haven't watched any subsequent shows.

First, let me say I'm a fan of the zombie "genre." I thought the pilot episode was great, perfect even. After that it's been extremely uneven with characters I don't particularly care about, filler episodes where almost nothing happens, and a lot of bad acting.
I've read some of the comics and I care about the versions of the characters portrayed there, just not their TV counterparts.
Still, it's the only serialized zombie show on TV so I continue to watch. I haven't seen the latest season because I like to save them up until the season is done and then blow through them all in a week. It makes those filler episodes more bearable.
And I don't care about them never finding a cure or source for the outbreak. There are near limitless stories that can be told simply around what it's like to survive in the world shown in the series.

That show is nothing special IMO

I have seen parts of it but I never was very interested I am a Game of Thrones/Vikings guy.

Great comic, lousy show.

I really liked it, but lost interest after the first two episodes of the latest season. I'll eventually seat down and watch the rest.
Posted on 3/2/14 at 9:56 am to LSUFOREVERAMEN
I really liked the first 2 seasons. Don't care for it that much now but it's not hard to watch an hour a week and my dad always calls me to talk about it the next day so I feel guilty if I don't watch it.

When SFP and I agree on topics, it's because that belief is true.
This is one of those occasions.

It was entertaining for me for awhile but when it boiled down to making time to watch other stuff it fell off my list. I prefer what I've read of the comic. I may go back and binge watch at some point but probably not anytime soon.

Still really enjoy the show. It's one of my favorites on tv behind GoT and Vikings. Doesn't bother me that some hate it.

I used to love it, then they stayed at the prison for fricking ever and the show became nothing like the comics, and I stopped watching.
Posted on 3/2/14 at 11:14 am to LSUFOREVERAMEN
No, i think most intelligent people realize it's average at best

yea it's comical when a zombie just pops up because you know the writers were like "alright, enough arguing between Rick and Carl, let's have them deal with a random zombie again, and forget that they might be wondering why these zombies keep appearing out of thin air"
