Onto season 5-6 TWD now

Everyone just sits around and talks about their feelings now

At least crazy Rick is fun to watch

Carol got ruined pretty much straight after the Terminus arc.

Never have I seen a TV show been erased from the public consciousness so quickly as much as TWD. I mean, maybe only GoT has surpassed it, but at least GoT was talked about right up until the finale.

TWD is pretty much syfy tier now. Literally nobody talks about it and yet AMC are still adamant on keeping it on life support.

big dog · June 17, 2020, 10:01:39 AM

Seasons 9 and 10 are the new peak of the show IMO, just sucks that the Savior arc tanked so hard it turned people off the show.

Ingy · June 17, 2020, 10:54:24 AM

If they haven't changed the formula of introducing someone, immediately dumping a sob story on the viewer, and then expecting us to care about them, not really interested

The lack of compelling new characters and the slow whittling down of old cast makes the show really boring

Ingy · June 17, 2020, 04:36:40 PM

Also did anyone catch that whole Michonne being black subplot in season 9 that went nowhere

What was up with that

erm

what

I don't remember exactly but she started to feel isolated from the other community members as well as her checking out the slavery section of the DC museum and watching a black walker that was lynched

She shut Alexandria off to outsiders (including Hilltop and Kingdom) following a traumatic experience that happened within the six year timeskip following Rick's disappearance, which she gets over towards the end of the season.

Oh yeah
Maybe I misread the imagery

Funny how much clearer season 1-4 are in my head compared to the later seasons
I’m halfway through season 6 and literally nothing has happened

I remember the first half of season 6 dropping off after the first three or four episodes and not getting better until the second half.

Haven't watched it in ages though, waiting for the show to finally end before going through all the seasons again.

YouTube

The producers have said they do not intend on ending the show any time soon
Plus we still have the Rick Grimes movies to look forward to and probably a few more seasons with him on the main show before hopefully they bring the show to an end

It's nearing it's natural conclusion though with civilization popping back up and walkers not really being a threat anymore

I feel like they mean The Walking Dead brand more than the main show. I know in the past they've talked about 12 seasons which would give them enough room to cover the remaining comic material and some original content.

But given TWD is literally the only popular thing AMC has left they're probably going to keep it going for as long as they can. Their only show other than TWD/FTWD that still gets above a million regular viewers is Better Call Saul which only has a season left.

At least season 6 had probably the best scene in the whole show

Mmmmm Napalm · June 18, 2020, 02:14:12 PM

Since January, I've been going through the UC Gundam series with my friend. So far, we've watched:

The MSG 0079 compilation movies
MSG: War in The Pocket
MSG: The Origin
MSG: 08 MS Team
Zeta Gundam (we finished this yesterday

Now we've started 0083 Stardust Memories, and after that we'll watch ZZ Gundam, then Char's Counterattack, and then Gundam Unicorn.

A couple years ago we watched the first season of Gundam Thunderbolt. I hadn't watched any other Gundam shows at that point, so I'd like to rewatch it at some point, now that I have the requisite context.

Ian · June 18, 2020, 02:29:42 PM

How'd you like 08th MS Team? That's one of my favorites.

Wait.

TWD is still going?

I checked out whenever Negan got captured and put in... jail?

That and the times where Rick's kid died in the sewer and Michael Burnham got killed off to go to Star Trek Discovery kinda merged as around the same time.

Are they still in that fucking place?

there have been two seasons since negan got put in jail. they got a new lead writer in after that.

they do quite a big timeskip of 6 years where things are kinda medieval now, and there's more of an ensemble cast thing going on where the action moves between alexandria, hilltop and kingdom

I liked it a lot. I enjoyed the focus on ground battles, and that the action was focused on a squad of average mechs as opposed to a single experimental mech that's "the best."

The fight with the Gouf is probably my favorite action scene in the whole series thus far.

after many years of being a weeb, ive decided to watch naruto a few days ago. i dont generally like shonen, but my friends always nagged me about it. it's okay ig

but the real star of the show is yuki yuna is a hero. i started rewatching it last night, starting with the prequel. it's one of my favorite anime that i almost never see talked about

Jive Turkey · July 08, 2020, 07:52:33 PM

Rewatched avatar the last air bender. What a beautiful show, better than I remember it being TBH. It tugged at me more emotionally this time for sure

Cheat · July 08, 2020, 10:10:43 PM

Rewatching Silicon Valley and really enjoying it, actually.

MarKhan · July 09, 2020, 05:39:05 AM

This show where ex-president was charged in 24 bad formed court charges, one of which was accusing him in disrupting our religion, even though ex-president actually made our Eastern Orthodox Church being canonized and accepted in Vatican, unlike russian branch which is right now more cult than church. So featuring in this episode: ex-president attorneys wiping floor with accusers, one of investigators of State Bureau of Investigation coming to TV channel and spilling beans, around 5000 people protesting under the court in defence for our ex-president, Pecherskyy court dropping charges.

In previous episode Governor of National Bank of Ukraine left his job of his own volition because he claims that he is politically pressured by the current government and president.

big dog · July 09, 2020, 06:34:11 AM

Still getting through TCW, not a show but I also started watching Star Wars from the beginning. So far I've finished the prequel trilogy and Solo, doing Rogue One next.

Venture Bros for the third time over.

I went back and rewatched Dragon Ball Z abridged. Season 1 was very myspace era humour but by the Android Saga it was basically a way more concise and funny redub. Really the only annoying thing is the VA for Goku, Gohan and Krillin. Super enjoyable tbh
