Re: The Walking Dead
Maybe they're hoping we'll salve our disgust for the finale by watching FTWD in greater numbers?

Re: The Walking Dead
FTWD isn't must see for me. I am fine to DVR and catch up on it but I watch TWD live or on delay if I don't get home in time.

Re: The Walking Dead
FTWD sucks because they had an entire season and established exactly zero likable characters. Who cares what happens to these morons?

Re: The Walking Dead
Second season is better than the first I think. You are right about liking the characters. I wouldn't be bothered by any of them dieing. Nick is the only one who seems interesting and is pretty far from what his character started as.Sigwolf wrote:FTWD sucks because they had an entire season and established exactly zero likable characters.

Re: The Walking Dead
Am I the only one who's on Negan's side here? Rick's group went around just killing his men last season fro really no provocation, just that the Hilltop wanted them gone so they would still trade. Then they continue to make really dumb decisions that led them to get captured and then got Glenn killed too.

Was talking to my friend, Rick is just like Negan, would have done the same thing if his group was attacked and probably killed everyone and not just two

Re: The Walking Dead
A difference is the savior's come in and take supplies while Rick and co. are looking to trade for it. Don't forget that Daryl, Abraham, and Sasha were stopped by a group of savior's on the road and Daryl blew them up. I don't think the attack on them in return for trade with the Hilltop is completely unprovoked. It just so happens that Rick's group is outmanned and outgunned by Negan's.DelPen wrote:Am I the only one who's on Negan's side here?

Re: The Walking Dead
I think that Negan's group is an image of the road that Rick's group was headed toward. Perhaps Negan's group started out trading, but got screwed over so many times (just like Rick's group) that this is what they've evolved to?Zarovich wrote:A difference is the savior's come in and take supplies while Rick and co. are looking to trade for it.

In a war, which ever side you happen to be (happen to be born, live, or just land) on are the 'good' guys, to you.

I don't remember really anything about Ezekiel except for one thing which may or may not be awesome in the show.

Re: The Walking Dead
I don't disagree with the notion that the side you start out on can be considered the "good" side. I was merely pointing out that some of Rick's group had encountered some of Negan's group and it wasn't a positive experience for Rick's group. They were being pre-emptive based on that encounter and talking with the Hilltop. Rick's group simply didn't have the information about Negan's group that would have let them know they were at a severe disadvantage without recruiting other groups.dagny wrote:I think that Negan's group is an image of the road that Rick's group was headed toward.

Maybe I'm soft on John Winchester, I mean JDM, but I'm suggesting that Negan's group didn't start out that way. Much like Rick's group didn't start out like what they've evolved to, like killing people in their sleep - pre-emptively, Rick's group would have never done that before.

I always wonder what the group would be like if Shane was still around.

Re: The Walking Dead
I might catch up before the 2nd half starts but I'm through I think the 2nd episode where Darryl is jailed, but the episode with Tara sounds worse than a Lisa featured episode of the Simpsons.
I'm current, well almost, on the comics, am I really missing anything so far?
