WTH? Help us!
Oookay. Here's the problem. I WANT TO LIKE THE SHOW AGAIN! I want to, but they are making it impossible.
I just want to start by saying the most annoying thing, is no one that speaks like a real person in this season. I'm sick of speech guy (Negan), Eugene that speaks like Yoda half the time, the Trash people (don't even get me started) who talk like babies with guns, The King (although I do like him but again talks like he's at the renaissance festival) etc. It's ridiculous and embarrassing to watch.
The forced foreshadowing that is so blatant the writers must think we have the mentality of the Trash people. It was obvious they were going to kill Carl. He's suddenly in every scene, making really painfully poor speeches, kill me yada yada yada. It was uncomfortable to watch.
I know this is beating a dead horse, but the characters doing really, really dumb things. Rick going to the Trash people again, WTF? This is was amazingly stupid, and left viewers saying "you gotta be joking" No one, NO ONE would return for a second round with those turn coats, especially alone. Maggie, oh jesus, this scene made me literally yell at the TV. The tree is in the road, and you just stop and wait, despite the fact that Negan has used this tactic at least twice previously. (They are running out of surprise tactics I guess) No no no...as soon as you see it, turn around, get out, set up something and fight, but no we'll just wait to be taken over again. EVERYONE had a shot on Negan at the compound, but no one takes the shot, or can hit him. UGH! Again, dumb dumb dumb. The Mole not shooting Eugene, nope not buying that one either. Leaving some of the best warriors behind, namely Michonne to baby sit, Judith, the child that must have taken an aging/haste potion who is now a full blown 4 year old. Someone shoot me please, oh wait, you'd probably need a speech before it and miss me horribly.
I want to break up with you Walking Dead, but we've been through 4-5 good years and 3 bad. C'mon can't we go to counseling or something?
