I've loved it because I like the action episodes. Agree about the showing mercy thing - and glad to hear you will still be glued to the TV for the next episode!!! I'm betting it's going to be all action at first, and then a slowing down, as the post-Negan world develops - but we're a long way from that yet :)Terry Tylerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15077413235902203848noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7513470670765405287.post-16053394963891712052017-11-05T13:48:30.232-08:002017-11-05T13:48:30.232-08:00I do know what you mean, and that it was the fight...I do know what you mean, and that it was the fight against the zombies that the initial seasons were all about... but, alas, it is realistic in that in a lawless world, the real threat becomes other people (as Rick told Deanna!). They know how to deal with the zombies now... other people have said that they like the later seasons more because it isn't just fight zombies-rinse-repeat. Guess you can never please everyone, really, can you?! We all have our favourite series :)Terry Tylerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15077413235902203848noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7513470670765405287.post-23763829415898767402017-11-05T11:40:16.520-08:002017-11-05T11:40:16.520-08:00At the risk of becoming unpopular, I've found ...At the risk of becoming unpopular, I've found this season so far to be utterly underwhelming. I hate the hopping around between 'real life' and 'unreal life' and I want to slap them all and tell them to grow some balls because they would never have been shown mercy. However, I shall be glued to my TV as always for the next episode...K9-Dreahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16882829247049805585noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7513470670765405287.post-13479031960505188912017-11-05T11:02:42.123-08:002017-11-05T11:02:42.123-08:00I've been having a think about it and I think ...I've been having a think about it and I think the reason I don't like this season as much is I used to find the zombies really terrifying which gave me a thrill. It was really unique because you invest in the characters more than in a film. Watching men shoot each other just doesn't do it for me.<br />Amos Kachinskihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01448770668575123039noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7513470670765405287.post-21523833848023075302017-11-04T02:23:32.716-07:002017-11-04T02:23:32.716-07:00Hahaha, yes, Jesus looked rather fantabulous - tho...Hahaha, yes, Jesus looked rather fantabulous - those eyes!!!! Totally agree with you about Ezekiel, and I think Carol's face said it all. I really like him but even I'm a bit sick of his positivity - and I write self-help! ;) Shelley Wilsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07513209160436996810noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7513470670765405287.post-52535431192544098912017-11-02T05:58:23.427-07:002017-11-02T05:58:23.427-07:00Yeah, I couldn't understand WHY Jesus suddenly...Yeah, I couldn't understand WHY Jesus suddenly went all holier than though when, previously, he had been shooting away. But never mind - and didn't he look lush?! Yeah, yeah, okay, I agree about Daryl's hair, really!<br /><br />As for the ratings, I never read anything about them. You're right, it's far too early to say how the season is going to go, and the way I look at it is that it's a bit like a book series; you will always get people dropping off along the way, and those who moan when the old is replaced by the new. What do they want, Rick and co still at the prison, fighting the Governor???? And it's still the most watch show on Cable ever.<br /><br />I think they should tone down Ezekiel, he's too silly and pantomime. Just less of him would do, I think. My favourite seasons are 3, 4 and 6, with 6 my all-time favourite, but what I find is that you don't see how good they are until the second watching. I love the action over the human stuff, so this opening totally rocked for me.

Was annoyed at Jesus for being all goody-goody. Blimey, I'd be a maniac in a zombie apocalypse! NOOO you can't tie Daryl's locks back ;) Have to admit I googled Morales as couldn't remember the link straight away *hands head in shame* :) I read that the ratings for this season are down by a couple of million so perhaps a few fans aren't enjoying the cheesy opening either - I'm enjoying it because I love TWD and am invested in the characters, but I've preferred other seasons over this one. It is early days so we shall see. Great post, Terry.Shelley Wilsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07513209160436996810noreply@blogger.com
