re: Great Walking Dead critique (spoilers)

Imo, it has always been pretty much a "B" level series. The first season was consistently good and definitely worthy of hooking people in. It probably helps that it was short. After that it has always been pretty hit and miss with really bad lulls, questionable acting, and the occasional really fun high points. At this point there have only been 2 good episodes in the last 2 seasons. This is the worst lull of the series, but it isn't the first. I guess the difference is now they are fricking up the episodes that are supposed to be the high points when in the past they generally did a pretty decent job of hitting them. There's so much convoluted bullshite going on right now.
