Does this show seem especially pointless to anyone else? There's no real plot to it. Rick and the gang just go from settlement to settlement fucking shit up or wandering in the forest for reasons.
But it's all pointless. There's never going to be a payoff or anything really. Is this supposed to be a commentary on life?
The plot is a bunch of people trying to survive
I'm not saying it's a good plot, but there is one
Yeah, that's how it feels to me. I stopped watching it after they brought the Governor back, made him interesting and sympathetic again, and then made him do a heel-turn for no good reason, again.
I don't think it's meant to be a statement about life, though. I think it's just bad writing.
>>63049474
It's shit.
>>63049474
There isn't a plot. The whole show is about these group of survivors trying to make it, and failing to rebuild over and over. There's probably some deeper stuff to it but I'm too dumb to pick up on any of it.
I will agree though, this fucking season has been terrible so far. It centers around ONE damn day. The plot is going absolutely nowhere. Hopefully something actually happens next half.
After reading the comic I gave the show a try and it's so shit. Every episode has like 3 "this is the way things are now!" speeches. More filler than a shonen anime.
It's supposed to be about the difficult decisions you have to make. You're not supposed to get a big payoff, you're supposed to struggle and enjoy the few moments of sincere happiness they can eke out in a terrible world.
>>63049633
>It centers around ONE damn day.
I don't get why Scott Gimple is doing this. S04E01 to S06E07 has seriously spanned like a few weeks, most of that the hundreds of miles between Georgia and Virginia covered off-screen.
Has anyone else noticed how clean the homes are? There's not dust or stains or marks anywhere on them.
And every guy has a 2 day shave at the max.
And all the bitches have nice hair cuts.
And nice skin in general.
they should try to wrap it up after negan, if they do his character right it'll be the peak of the show otherwise it's just going to be the same survival and fighting other communities forever

>>63049836
The end of All Out War is the perfect series finale 2bh. I see 0 reason for the show to go on after that.
>>63049474
TWD is hardly the pinnacle of art, but it still blows my mind that there are people so stupid as to not understand what the driving force behind the show is.
wait so who said "help" on the radio 2 episodes ago?
>>63049775
It kind of works since Alexandria has mostly been spared any kind of hardship.
Now that they are in Alexandria the show kind of has a purpose, and the current arc in the comics is gonna end up in something good because will have thousands of people added in the commnunity.
The problem with the show is that it had way too much settlementes, in the comics was way straight forward
The problem is a tipping point issue.
If you divide society into two groups, those trying to work together to better themselves, and those trying to parasitize the work of others there is a tipping point where onebside or the other "wins" eventually. It is essentially Vikings vs. Castles. People who build communities versus those who attack communities for resources. Eventually one aidebor the other will overwhelm. The Road shows the side where raiders "win" and everyone dies out, just for example.
The issue with the show is to maintain drama stability cannot be kept. The formula, I. The comic and show, boils down to:
>group tries to build a community
>they keep out the zombies
>everything is going good for a while
>assholes show up
>they fuck everything up and kill half the cast
>repeat
It goes stail after a while.
>>63049955
G-d?inertia and capitalism
i wonder if it's going to end vaguely like "did they/he/she survive?" or they all turn and they just play some marlon mansion music like the sopranos did or after 5 years they'll make a shitty movie way past the time people gave a fuck or one of the "important" actors dies irl "
>>63049577
What!? He was just faking.
He was always a two by faced bastard, shame on you for falling for his shit.
it has good atmosphere and pretty decent zombie violence / killing situations but the majority of the people they cast actually seem autistic.

WHEN THE GOVERNMENT FELL, SO DID OUR STOCKPILE OF SCISSORS
It bugs me they never try to find out the cause/a cure/government/a larger society and are content to just wander around dying in Georgia.
I read the S1 arc with the CDC stuff wasn't even in the comics.
>>63050265
>average civilians trying to survive and acclimate to the new world are going to find a cure or even know how to go about looking for one
Did that make sense in your head?
>>63051109

how many years do they need to acclimate?

>>63050265
>I read the S1 arc with the CDC stuff wasn't even in the comics.
this is correct, because it's thematically out of place within the walking dead universe.
the point of the walking dead is that it will never uncover a cause, a cure or any remaining governments
society will be rebuilt but not in a grand epik way

There isn't. I still watch it because Lincoln's a great actor, at least by tv standards. I guess the show's about the characters themselves, even though most of them have had almost no development except "I'm now more skilled at killing walkers"
>>63052131
>implying generic find the cure plot would be interesting
>>63050020
It doesn't help that Rick's group seem to be the assholes who show up and ruin everything, over and over.
>>63049474
this show is so garbage, but this shot is so awesome.
would hang on my wall/10
The mistake they are making with this show is they are dragging out the subplots for way too long. Nothing should be more than a half a season: the farm, woodbury, terminus, alexandria, negan, whisperers, etc..
They drag shit out way too long.
It's a survival show.
It's a post-apocalyptic survival show.
Show about what'd happen after the zombie apocalypse, and it's damn entertaining at that.
Zombies no longer are the threat, humans are the threat, and watching the various ways people manipulate each other, build settlements, form gangs, form a community, or bond in general, and evolve as human beings, is pretty interesting.
>>63052303
This. The writing and logic of the show is often shit, but the character development is interesting and well done. Rick's evolution in particular is the best thing about TWD - how he has gone from naive pussy to hardcore ruthless crazy man.
You can see his breaking point was when he bit that guy's throat out after seeing Carl almost get raped. GOAT scene.

>>63049966
>>63052597

It was amusing to watch this show jump the shark this season.
That dumpster diving shit was ridiculous and insulting to the fans.
But bro the real enemy isn't the zombies, it's the fellow survivors!
>>63049474
I started watching it like a month ago.
It was pretty fun to marathon through, but now I'm not really feeling it.

It was just to make everyone think Glenn is safe now with ultimate plot armor so everyone will be even more shocked when he gets his head caved in by Lucille.

>>63052661
What a twist!
>>63052688
But that doesn't make sense since Daryl is getting Lucille'd...
>>63052302
This is exactly what the problem is; the entire show as become idiotic filler. Season 4 was shit until the reintroduction of the Governor and was shit again after the mid-season finale until the very last episode. Season 5 was good for the first 3 episodes then sputtered off. Season 6 so far has had 2 good episodes and tons of straight up filler. The point we are at in the story right now could have been 4 episodes into season 6 and we're going to be 8 episodes in on Sunday. The come up this the most boring storylines and fail to realize they get the best ratings when cool shit happens, the absolute stagnation of this show is infuriating.
>>63052688
It was a cheap ratings ploy after losing 16% of their audience in the season premiere. It's the essence of hack writing and it was the exact moment when the show jumped the shark.
>>63052709
>mfw they put up that stupid fucking statue here in town
What's the point of any TV show?
>>63052518
>implying twd has character development
>>63049925
At the pace Season 6B goes we'll be done with All Out War season 8 finale tops. Right now I see them trying for 9 or 10 fucking seasons. A New Beginning is like the beginning to a sequel series so it'll be odd as hell to give us two seasons of that and somehow tie in up with a pretty bow. Where the comic story is heading doesn't look too considerate of AMC's budget concerns. The story is really becoming Game of Thrones in its scope.
>>63049474
>there are people who don't understand the walking fucking dead
You goofballs. It's not just a zombie survival show, it's a human drama with some zombies in it.
It's a show about conflict. It's always been about conflict. The entire point of the zombies is that they personify mortality and death, and the survivors are trying to avoid/fight that death at any cost. Since Rick has woken up from his coma, he's been fighting one thing after another. It's like pottery.
The conflict with the Governor emphasized the MAIN POINT of the show. Rick's speech to the Governor's people is the entire point of the show. The whole "We're not too far gone, we all can change" thing is the end goal. Even in a world where fucking magic zombies exist, people can get together and, for once, not kill each other.
I guarantee that the show will end when Rick and Co. finally find an enemy that they can make peace with, instead of kill. They'll start to build a community and it will seem like there's hope in the new world. The end of conflict is the end of the show. That's the goal.
>>63054148
How will they wrap it up?
>>63054372
>They'll start to build a community and it will seem like there's hope in the new world. The end of conflict is the end of the show. That's the goal.
kek
its gonna end with every single character dead. that's been obvious from the start. there is no end of conflict in TWD. its all depression and hopelessness.
>>63049955
Its obviously money
>>63051895
If it's all pointless why make the sh...oh yeah, money
>>63054372
What gets me is that time passes and most of the time they have vehicles and yet they seem to just roam around in a 1 mile square area.
At this rate even if they went on foot they'd be three states over.
And why aren't they attempting to reach the coast and move to some island where it's much easier to take control of.
Hell, they can find a map and figure out where to go specifically instead of bumbling around.
At least S1 had that progress from urban environment to country to the CDC and the plot felt like it was larger in scope.
Ever since they they just pick one location and milk it for a whole season.
>>63049474
It's character driven, the plot is "Surviving in a zombie apocalypse".
It doesn't need anything deeper than villain of the series stuff.
>>63054433
I hope your right. I've been rooting for the zeds for a while now because the characters are all fucking stupid and deserve a death and/or being a zombie thats eternally stuck in the ground
>>63050020
>tipping point
>>63049474
So, why don't they go to the white house or something? isn't there like an Apocalypse proof bunker underneath or something? They might even find out not everyone's dead and end up being bunker mates with the former president.

Yep. I stopped watching a couple of seasons ago. Watch the odd episode every now and then. Not missing anything.

Everything is too safe. The prison was good, but all the best seasons were when they were out in the sticks, trying not to get their shit fucked up hard
>>63056403
I miss the season 1 zombies, they were much more threatening. I've been rewatching it and they're so different. I had forgotten that at some point the zombies were actually a threat
>can climb fairly well
>can kinda run when alerted and not just shamble
>smart enough to use objects like rocks to break glass
>Morgan's wife hangs around their house and tries using the doorknob to get inside which implies the zombies can retain some sort of instinctual memories making them more interesting
>skulls aren't soft, a baseball bat isn't going to take one down in one swing
>some could scream which was pretty cool
The zombies just piss me off now. They're so slow and squishy that the only way for people to die to them is to either get cornered by more than 10 of them (unless you're glen) or get bit by a stealth zombie, which is usually what happens.
>>63049474
A majority plot devices consists of characters in the main group being retarded and acting on ideas they think is for the greater good.
>>63054433
>>63054607
lol this is the most retarded opinion about the walking dead
'they're all going to die' isn't going to be how it ends lmao the zombies become even less of a threat than they are already
>>63057190
well, they certainly don't climb, or run, but you have a point in that the season 1 zombies are pretty much entirely different creatures to 2 onwards, as they use rocks, doors and all that. you could say that it was a thematic decision, related to the survivors becoming more competent, or a narrative one, implying they grow weaker and dumber over time, but it's just that season 1's showrunner had a retarded idea for zombies.
>>63049966
Wasn't it the guy that stole Daryls motorcycle?
Him being overrun by zombies and now asking daryl for help seems like the obvious shitty writing TWD would do.
>>63049474
THE SURVIVORS are the walking dead. There is no point.
In the comics, eventually the story shifts to being about the sort of civilization that rises out of the zombie apocalypse. The world that returns is very different from the old one, but it is still a society.
But right now, the show is just about survival and depression. Basically is has no plot, and that's sort of the point.
>>63057190
>stealth zombie
This is what I hate.
They have god-awful writers and AMC are shameless jews, that's the problem this show has.
Actors are ok, make-up is great, and the setting offers much, much material for good plots; but their writers are stupid, they're stories are stupid, while other shows' writers are smart and cunning, we don't win anymore, we have to build a wall and it has to be built QUICKLY
>>63057376
Check out season 1 episode 2. They definitely scale a chain link fence and they're pretty much running before that. They're not as fast as a living human but enough that you have to run as well and can't casually saunter in front of them like the group does later on when travelling.
They are kind of retarded though, now that I think about it. If anything I wish they kept their speed and none of the other shit so that way they're actually kind of threatening but not as silly. I just don't like how they basically have to place a herd that somehow no one notices next to whatever characters we're viewing to make danger happen. Then again I guess it's not supposed to be the running dead, although that would be far superior in my opinion.
I guess I just miss the zombies bringing some tension to the show. Now i get annoyed when someone gets bitten because the zombies are so loud and slow there's no excuse. Yet Tyreese still manages to get bit because the zombie happened to be just out of sight, not making a peep, and had stealth boots on.
>>63049474
My problem with the show at this point is that there's just nothing of interest left. It's been this way since Season 4.
In Seasons 1-3, it was about meeting new people, secrets, and the dynamics between all of the characters. There was a lot going on, and a lot of little things between characters that showed some level of complex relationships.
But we've hit a "blank slate" point. All of those secrets got revealed. Many of the character's stories ended/they died...so...what now? There's no intrigue left. The beginning of the series kinda slowly built up secrets and issues that needed to be resolved among the strangers, but now since we're mid season and there's nothing to build off of...we get these really short lived hamfisted stories. Like that fucko blonde kid who wants to kill Carl. There's no real buildup or anything interesting, he just fought with Carl once and now he wants to kill him.
I honestly don't know how they recover at this point. We're left with nothing but bland interchangeable characters like token gay Tara and skinny black girl Sasha. Can you think of a single interesting thing going on with either of them? No. Because there isn't. It's the same with the rest of the cast.
Now compare that to something like Shane or Hershel from season 2 and it's a world of difference. They've just hit a writing dead end because there's nothing left to learn about most of the characters we've met. Their stories have already been told and resolved.
kek the mid season finale is going to piss off the particularly anal comic autists. The really crazy shit from No Way Out happens in episode 9 in Feb. Not really a bad thing since it leads straight into Jesus and the Saviors anyways.
>>63057348
It's almost a shame the show watchers won't get to see President Rick Grimes vs The New Californian Republic
>>63052492
>You can see his breaking point was when he bit that guy's throat out after seeing Carl almost get raped.
Woah you must be the first person ever who said this!
If you watch this show you're a fat fucking autist.
the plot is just them surviving,
this current season is really tedious though. they are dragging it on like fuck, last season was much better than this, its literally going nowhere
>>63049474
why dont they go to the coast and then find an island omwhere on the ocean where there is no zombies and there they can start civilizations and live happily ever after

>>63049474
That's why I gave up watching it.
There's so many interesting things they could do with it, like look into what's going on in the rest of the world or trying to figure out how all of this started and/or trying to stop the outbreak.
But nope, it's just gotta be an excuse for personal drama and lots of repetitive shoot em' up crap. The only real suspense is wondering if any characters are going to die.
>>63059760
>trying to figure out how all of this started and/or trying to stop the outbreak

Have you thought about how that story would pan out or are you just puking any generic zombie idea that comes to mind?
>>63059797
>just puking any generic zombie idea that comes to mind?
Pretty much actually. But that's all the show would have to do since all it literally is at this point is running from and killing zombies.
>>63059760
>lots of repetitive shoot em' up crap.
thats far more interesting than the stuff you just suggested m8
What I don't get is did the writers forget about pic related. He was actually right all along, and was the real reason why Rick changed so much from good boy sheriff.
Also were all supposed to assume that Judith is actually Rick's kid since they look so much alike. The one thing I actually liked about the comics was that it was heavily implied it was Shanes.

>What I don't get is did the writers forget about pic related
How do you mean? There's no reason for Rick to bring up him. Would make more sense to talk about Governor than Shane Kuc.
>Also were all supposed to assume that Judith is actually Rick's kid since they look so much alike.
Nah I feel anyone who remembers the kuckery that went down in the beginning knows it's almost totally Shane's. Maybe he'll talk about Shane relatively soon since Maggie said "She looks like Lori" and Rick look really stirred on the inside.
>>63054433
>its gonna end with every single character dead
Just like in real life!
I honestly don't understand why all of the main characters are constantly so bummed out. The instant one of them finds something amusing or tries to lift the mood they get dragged down by the group of premenstrually depressed buzzkills.
How do you even go on like that just fucking off yourselfs.
I miss that tainted meat guy, he was the only one with a chill, positive outlook on things.

They have less food, they're dehydrated, completely worn out, and suffering from PTSD.
These are not rational people anymore.
If it makes you feel any betterIt starts to become about rebuilding civilization. There are other settlements like Alexandria, they start creating trade routes. One of the settlements demands supplies for protection, like the mob. Rick goes to war with them. Then theres a time skip.

I don't even know why I bother correcting people in Walking Dead threads, two thirds of you people are apparently too retarded to even understand the most heavy-handed, unsubtle show on television right now
>>63059797
Not him but everything else has been done to death and the show and comics are retreading the same ground, Kirkman just adjusts the dials on the next psychopath leader of group x that Rick has to deal with and throws in a bigger herd of zombies.
Why wouldn't there be someone trying to figure out how to stop the reanimation process? The Woodbury autistic guy was trying to figure it out.
Always had this theory that Rick is the reanimation process gone awry, he died in the hospital and woke up from turning but his organs all functioned as normal.
It's the reason why I can't enjoy anything post-apocalyptic, the world is gonna be fucked no matter what protagonists do, so that means characters will never truly achieve anything apart from surviving to live another day. It's not the lack of happy ending or bleakness that annoys me, but lack of real closure and ever-present status quo

Oh right, good point. Well there's that little girl zombie in the opening that picks up a stuffed rabbit or something and walks around with it so there's that.
There's also something about the way they express suspicion when Rick and Glen cover themselves in guts that conveys a sense of very basic intelligence. I don't think the zombies should be very intelligent of course but they just acted a little more interesting, like there was a tiny shred of humanity left in them which was pretty unsettling to me.

What you don't understand is that there are countless "apocalypses" that happened throughout actual history already. The entire concept of an apocalypse is extremely anthropocentric in itself, the world will always keep spinning if it's not some sort of cosmic-scale shit hitting the fan. The true thrill in watching post-apocalyptic media is to see how the characters struggle to keep up the torch of humanity and civilized life in a deeply hostile environment, since this is the future requirement for rebuilding everything in the centuries to come.
Just started season 2. Bretty gud so far. It took me 3 attempts to get passed the first episode.

>Rick is the reanimation process gone awry, he died in the hospital and woke up from turning but his organs all functioned as normal.
the only reasonable fan theory that I've read/heard about TWD so far
But the point is, the walking dead is 1000 times better than breaking fukkin bad and you cant do anything against that truth

there's a lot of reasons why this is the truth
the most evident is that they're both a character's arc driven stories, and while BB has only two (maybe three) characters whose arc is central in the narration, TWD has tens of them

S2 is often slated to be one of the worst seasons, but it's one of my favorites. Shane is arguably the best character/actor on the show, and he's involved in many epic moments in the season. Also people say the plot moved too slow/issues were dragged on for too long but it wasn't the case for me because i binged it a matter of days. I guess it was more intolerable when you had to wait a week to each next episode.

When will this meme end? Z Nation is contrived, try-hard schlock from the creators of Sharknado. The Walking Dead isn't high patrician art, but at least it's not Z Nation.
