The Walking Dead Season 8
Discussion
The way I figure it, I select me two options of possible recourse:
One: I turn said soundbar up to the max in order for my side-mounted stereo lobes to conjure what the hell is being verbally postulated by all and sundry.
Or Two: I enlist the help of the queen's pure screen-based English to rectify my mind of any auditory misinterpretation I may have downloaded through my aural receptors.
Or Three: I stop talking b
ks?

"Hey everyone, here's the plan: While we wait for the Saviours to starve inside the Sanctuary, we won't need to keep an eye on them or anything, so you can all make up the next bit as you go along. It might be a good idea to take loads of prisoners, and then repeatedly tell them that if they carry on misbehaving you'll get cross in a minute, without actually ever getting cross.
"I'm off to get my trousers pinched by some bullies, and then get locked in a box for a few days. Then, when they let me out, I'll kill some of them, and the others will agree to be my friend. Again. And I'll believe them. Again.
"I've already had a fight with Daryll about how st my plan is, and we consequently destroyed the BFG, so that's sorted. If you lot can keep up the bickering between yourselves while I'm in the cooler, that'd be good.
"And could somebody find out from Daryll where exactly the fk he was actually going in that dustcart when he serendipitously ploughed into the speaker truck? I only ask because if he had a plan, I thought, maybe, you know, it might be good to tell somebody what it was?"
Oh, and by the way; we're here to kill Negan, except NOBODY is allowed to kill Negan other than me. After all, he made me wee in my pants, which is a lot worse than bludgeoning my husband to death, or burning my face with an iron whilst shagging my missus, so I've got more of a grudge against him than you lot, and I have proved before how crap I'll be at killing him, becasue he makes me boo.
"And don't forget; when this is over I have no clue what to do next. Can I still be in charge please?"

Brilliant
I'm still comparing this to other shows and finding it a bit lightweight. In the beginning it was great but now it's a cheap mess dragged out going nowhere fast.
Something like Van Helsing has a similar vision of an apocalypse but they manage to have more than one story thread and manage to have proper sudden unexpected brutal death happen to characters. It's meant to be a nasty environment and having people abruptly die makes it more 'real', plus keeps the story unpredictable. They have just done the 'batter someone until their eye pops out' bit but as a throwaway not some high point of a season. Also not so many weapons and a more dangerous enemy, plus effects that weren't done by the intern. And it feels like the story might actually go somewhere.

We had no idea of how the Saviours et al escaped fom Sanctuary other than Negan saying it'll cost a lot of ammo, which is lucky because they seem to have the "infinite ammo" hack turned on.
People deciding to go ahead with things, then deciding they won't. What about all the weapons in the Warehouse, RPG's, grenades etc?.
Why didn't any of the snipers see Eugene? I mean he was stood out on a bloody great balcony in front of all the Walkers.
Weaker than a pint of Carling.

Woohoo! No more Walking Dead for us. The wife finally said “what the fk is going on? I can’t even watch it as background noise” and accepted my suggestion of switching to Vikings 
Such a shame that a series with such promise at the beginning has ended up a badly written piece of crap. Surely someone, maybe even an actor, said “hang on a minute, shouldn’t this be better?” I’d even go as far as saying that my 5 year old son’s Christmas play was better than this ste. I doubt even Syfy would pick this crap up now.

I know it's gold for selling advertisement given the viewing figures, but it feels like there shouldn't really be any more seasons.
Remember the CGI deer from last season?

I've watched the first few from this season, but it's long since past being "must-see tv" and there are quite a few of the later episodes sitting unwatched on my planner. Nothing I'm reading here is encouraging me to look at them and I'm working up the courage to delete them and the series link.
Bit of a shame when I've invested so much time watching all the previous seasons, but I think the law of diminishing returns has well and truly kicked in.
