    This, started off with an excellent premise and then descended into utter tripe.
    And the lord said unto John; "come forth and receive eternal life." But John came fifth and won a toaster.

      That sounds naggingly like something else I can't quite put my finger on.

          FFS. You need to watch it again, or read the directors explanation if you were incapable of working it out for yourself.

            What Younger Me Said.

            I binged watched it all again about 2 years ago, and got hooked all over again. It's fair to say the last couple of years got a bit convoluted, and the end was a bit "meh", but still one of my favourite ever TV shows.

                I thought that about the first series of Walking Dead. 5 minutes of zombie action followed by 40 minutes of everyone talking about their feelings.

                  The story is pretty much written though, as it's based on graphic novels (quite closely so far).

                  A lot of these septic-tank series things suffer from early success and TV channels usually decide after a couple of seasons that it's working really well and ask writers to flesh out and extend. That happened to Breaking bad just after the middle and there was a season or a season and a half that were kinda put there to push the end out by a year or so.

                    TWD was never about the zombies... that's rather the point.

                    I'm a fan but S1 in particular was not about smacking zombies - a whole episode would go by without anything happening and somehow that was still scary.

                    The first couple of seasons were also like children's cartoons compared to where we are now - I don't know that's a good change since gratuitous gore and violence gets a bit dull.

                    I think we're supposed to view Rick as some sort of hero but the longer we go the more he just seems to be a dick who keeps ruining everything!

                      And then ironically they could have spun the last season or half-season out into at least another season... it was like they dawdled in the middle then were in a rush to get it over.
