    It still reigns supreme in the gore department, with skin and ribcages falling off with gusto in the opening minutes alone, but it’s just not enough to counterbalance the circuitous nature of the show the longer it continues.

The show drags on and on, every descent plot has been used up in this. You can skip through half an episode and miss very little to anything. No intelligent dialogue, useless and new characters showing up left and right to be killed off. I understand this is a fictional zombie movie, but why haven't the hordes of zombies died out by now? Where is the food they get, (certainly there can't be that many living humans for all of them to feed off) where does the energy come from that allows them to walk miles on end day and night? Why aren't the zombies eating each other? Full Review »

The series itself has never been known for its intelligent dialogue (the first scene of Season 1 is probably the only well-written one from a lyrical perspective), but as of now the human interaction in the show is pretty much reduced the same level as the grunts exchanged by the undead.

    As for emotions, the stress level is too monotonous and too high. Too many things go wrong at the same time for completely chaotic reasons and it just results in a homogenous gray porridge. Violence and chases is not exciting when it's the baseline of the show.

    It's impossible to make an emotional connection to new charecters as they are often just killed off in the next scene. Why should I care about these people? Did the writers set a certain quota for faces that needs to be chewed on?

    The walkers are supposed to be predictable. Yet it is so often that a small group of humans walk into a deserted town, and chill around there for a bit, just to SUDDENLY be surrounded by walkers in every single alley. Where did they come from? Why did they suddenly converge on the town?

    In short, this show makes no sense and as of S6E3, I'm done with it.
