Are you going to watch TWD season 9?

After the last one. I thought that was enough. I can't sit through another load of crap like that.
But now it is upon us I'm wavering.

Don't know what to do.

Gimple, Negan and Carl’s death have made an amazing show slide so steeply off a cliff I can’t quite believe it. I don’t imagine watching past Andrew Lincoln’s departure. But maybe they will surprise me!

Will Chris Hardwick do Talking Dead, does anyone know?

gamerchick · 07/10/2018 13:54

The walkers aren't talking, the whisperers are coming.

MrsSlocombesPussy · 08/10/2018 17:22

Yes, Chris Hardwick is back. He did the entire season of Fear the Walking dead.

FannyFifer · 08/10/2018 23:16

Well that was a heap of shite. That's me def done with it now.

StripySocksAndDocs · 08/10/2018 23:28

Only just discovered it's back on! Will be back.

cushioncovers · 09/10/2018 07:36

I loved it. Glad Gregory got what he deserves.

MrsArchchancellorRidcully · 09/10/2018 09:25

How can people not know rick is leaving. It's been everywhere and even says it at the start of last night's episode.

I loved it. The museum was ace and Gregory got his just desserts. Horrible worm. Loved carol and Daryl.

Blondeshavemorefun · 09/10/2018 12:06

I don’t read wd stuff in mags etc so no didn’t no about rick

AllTheChocolateMice · 09/10/2018 19:11

Well it said in the opening credits so it was never going to be something they kept a secret

The talking walkers were shown on a preview ages ago so not exactly a spoiler if you are keeping up. Although I doubt they are talking walkers

AllTheChocolateMice · 09/10/2018 19:17

It said last episodes with Andrew Lincoln that is

beepbeeprichie · 09/10/2018 20:19

I thought it was ok. The opening montage on Fox that showed the short snippet from every single episode really highlighted to me how completely depressing and bleak seasons 7 and 8 were. Fair play Maggie. The whole Gregory thing was good. Rick is looking clean and rested and Daryl is an absolute flea bag. He must stink

shirleyschmidt · 09/10/2018 22:00

Just watched! It was nice to finally get some dialogue and interplay between different characters. Last season was just literally each character starting onto the horizon and fulfilling their war tasks in each episode, and along the way I stopped caring about anyone in it. Rick was very annoying with his 'obligation' to the saviors (wtf) but Maggie and Daryl were good.
Agree it was better but the binge factor has gone. I still feel like you have to endure 45 mins to get the 15 that are entertaining. Will record the season and watch as/when I get chance.

yumyumpoppycat · 10/10/2018 14:14

I must have missed something - how did the opening credits say rick was dead?

AllTheChocolateMice · 10/10/2018 15:59

Not that he is dead

It said in big letters Ricks last 6 episodes

I’m not sure even TSDFA know if he actually dies or not. I haven’t looked on it for a while though

AllTheChocolateMice · 10/10/2018 16:06

Actually I think it was final episodes

Blondeshavemorefun · 10/10/2018 20:59

THInk I may have dozed

Did we see negan?

And is rick trying to manage 3 groups a hilltop saviours and kingdom

And not enough crops fuel etc to go around

I did like the every episode recap for a brief second :)

yumyumpoppycat · 10/10/2018 23:10

I must have stepped out in the first five minutes to make a cup of tea as I didn't even see a recap!

PS does anyone else watch Z nation, series 5 has restarted on pick (freeview) and series 1-3 are on netflix. I have only started watching it recently but really like it, totally bonkers, and quite low budget feeling but lots of action. They never run out of bullets unless it's 5 minutes till the end of an episode then the bullets magically regenerate next episode Apparently it is meant to be a comedy answer to TWD. They also have the knack of not killing off characters that I like!

yumyumpoppycat · 10/10/2018 23:14

actually thinking back there were some characters I like killed off in z nation ... which is lucky actually or that might have been a spoiler!

Blondeshavemorefun · 11/10/2018 09:26

The recap was a few mins before. Wd starting

Clever

Izzabellasasperella · 11/10/2018 13:37

Daryl is not hot anymore. That is the reason the show is dying.😀😀

Blondeshavemorefun · 11/10/2018 14:23

D hasn’t been hot for about 4 seasons

Rick had a shower at some point after a lot Of sweat guts blood etc but rick didn’t

yumyumpoppycat · 11/10/2018 17:00

ah thanks blondes - I watched on now tv catch up, maybe that's why. Yeah it is so depressing about darryl - he looks like such a greaser now.

raisinsraisins · 11/10/2018 17:23

Enjoyed this episode. Because the group was interacting, talking normally and not just giving speeches, planning war and fighting. Liked seeing the museum. No Negan too.

Blondeshavemorefun · 11/10/2018 20:25

He was sexy

yumyumpoppycat · 12/10/2018 00:15

He looks like he has aged about 20 years not 9 - how many years is it supposed to be post z - about 3/4?
