After season 1 they replaced the original director because each episode cost them (AMC) somewhere around a million dollars, and those were some great episodes, but they didn't want to keep that price tag up, so he left knowing it would turn out the way it did.
Which is why it went down the star trek road of talky and techy. Instead of episodes that were heavy on expensive scenes, there was a lot of interpersonal stuff with exposition and lots of talking stuff out instead of heavy on the CGI, costumes, sets, makeup, etc.
In The Walking Dead's case, there was a lot of walking around the woods, talking about stuff, interpersonal stuff, and a few zombies now and then to remind people that it's a zombie series.
And as usual, you have a popular thing that exists. So of course it has to be feminine and for women. And oh no it got worse somehow. I bet it's the audience's fault again. God why do they hate women so much. They just poison everything they touch because you're having fun and they're not so it has to be destroyed.
But I digress. Y'ever notice that strugging companies, and low value IPs that have a small but loyal audience NEVER get injected with feminism? It's always applied to things that are always super popular and in high demand. As if they fully know exactly what they're doing, and it's just a grift to give jobs to people who are fully unemployable otherwise because of their ability to destroy everything they touch like a fucked up King Midas? That's just a head scratcher ain't it. Guess we'll never know why that is.

Happened with Rick and Morty. Two amazing seasons of scifi/nerd humor and personality. Then once it started hitting normie-levels of popularity they hired a bunch of female writers and now you have Rick sitting in therapy talking about his feelings and shit. Not to mention the first episode of S3 involved the female writers bluntly removing half the lore built up over the last two seasons because maintaining continuity is oppressive and part of the patriarchy.
I’ve seen episodes of Rick and Morty out of order but I was told the newer episodes weren’t good. This is also the reason I miss the days where I was teased for nerdy hobbies before they became mainstream
But Rick doesn't sit in therapy talking about his feelings though? The whole episode was him turning himself into a pickle to avoid that and the hijinks that insued. And what lore did they remove? I mean I'll absolutely shit on the rest of the show after S3 because it did go to complete dogshit but female writers or not they did execute a consistent theme to that season at least.
Imagine something so great that it fixes everything, but it is only ever applied to things that are already successful, and then those things go on to collapse in virtually every case.
Brief glimpses of interesting footage does not a show make.
Also, the Eiffel tower is immigrant central, with immigrant hustlers trying to sell cheap Chinese baubles as souvenirs to tourists. It's kind of funny that they kept those immigrant hordes out of view.
Daryls hot but he's also sad and not really that violent and gay and responsible for all the problems in this world and needs to do better but he's so hot though
If you haven’t read them, the comic is good. I have heard it’s very female centric and gay now. Funny, I wouldn’t think there would be that many gay people in a post apocalyptic world where a huge chunk of the population died off
Understand. To show you how long ago this was….. I was still getting subs for new comics and I just had them add the latest TWD comic if you ever get a chance though the last one is good. Shockingly showing a good father
After the low-budget half-season where everyone was just walking around in the woods, I was pretty close to just leaving the show. Once they stumbled upon some all-wymyn village is about where I gave up.
They had 2 good seasons then 2 decent seasons then it became boring then became self parody.
The 100 went through the same progression.
It jumped the shark for me once they left the prison.
Although that one episode with the "Look at the pretty flowers" storyline is still memorable.
It's also basically a retelling of Of Mice and Men, which explains why it's so much better than anything else in that show.

Its why the internet, gaming, comics and even anime is better off being the "loser nerd" thing. Times were much more free, interesting and innovative.

They aren't just using them as the zombies?
Yeah.. the newest walking dead, every other frenchie is black lol.
It's that bad? lol
Yep, my impression as well. Although, the grooming was dealt with in-story, but it was still pretty weak.
This show is still going?.............
More like they are riding Norman Reedus to the bank. With all the jokes about the South, Norman is one of the more popular actors now.
The show used to have Game of Throne levels of hype. A while back I stopped watching and said I would finish reading the comics. The comic is good
I watched the first 4 episodes of Daryl Dixon but gave it up as it was shit.
Daryls hot but he's also sad and not really that violent and gay and responsible for all the problems in this world and needs to do better but he's so hot though
And how every woman with any semblance of femininity either gets killed off or chops off their hair.

It has been since the outset. From day one most of the buzz about it was "which guy would bang you the best."
And when the show first started to lose its luster, they brought in Negan who was a panty exploder that kept the hype going for even more years.
