Which is fine, but it doesn't work for a TV series. This is especially true when you're main character is introduced as a brilliant underdog in a cutthroat industry. There has to be growth and forward movement. And the character has to always bounce back if he becomes unlikable. We've seen the company rise and fall…

I forgot about that, but the moment I heard it, I busted up laughing. Little shit like that is what pushes the comedy in this show. It just adds so much more to Russ's character.

My major frustration here comes with Richard. When the show began, he was the underdog with a lack of confidence that grew to see the importance of his product and, in turn, his own self as it's creator. Then, as it grew, and he became more wanted, his ego shifted and grew and now he's something of an egomaniac. That…

That was her as the cousin? I didnt even notice.

Mercenaries? They side with whoever gives then the best shit. Of course, if I lived in a dump, I'd probably be the same way.

Negan's just that kind d of character. If you want to blame anyone, blame Kirkman. No matter who played him, they're basically making Negan as Negan is written.

I've been defending this season a lot, but I'll admit that it left a lot to be desired. I understand what they were trying to do, at least when comparing it to the comic. But in retrospect it seems like they could have done something a lot better with all that time. Overall, I did enjoy this finale though. The Sasha…

I'm not sure logic still has a place here. Why would a guy like Negan think he could continue to hold sway over three or four different communities through fear alone? Everyone knows that eventually that shit is going to go south eventually. And to Negan's credit, he WAS going to kill Carl. It's definitely a flaw of…

So, Tara going along with Rick to assault the people that tried to kill her so they can get guns they desperately need in order to build an army to match Negan's doesn't make sense? Or that Negan is such a sociopath that he is convinced he's so terrifying he can do whatever he wants and control whoever he wants? Or…

I feel like there are a few points missed here. First, why 12 melons? Simple: control. Sure, the savior's could say bring us a bunch of stuff, but 12 melons at this time on this day is very, very specific. They even reiterate, several times, that their very specific demands need to be met. It's a control issue. Give…

I am struggling to not roll my eyes every other scene. I still find the show entertaining, but I honestly can't care about anyone. The series before Legacy at least created characters we could give a damn about. Bauer was a likable guy we wanted to see pull through and save the day and Chloe was a fantastic partner to…

Until some, dumb former chem student mucks things up!

The best seasons in 24 always defied cliche, or at least enough for it to seem fresh for 24. That's why Legacy pains me so. It's entertaining enough for me not to drop it, but the simple fact they couldn't come up with something better than Muslim extremists terrorists seems a cop out. I do hope that the twists we all…

This might be the first episode in the entire series that I fast forwarded through. I get what the writers and producers WANT to do, but it isn't working. While I like Tara, she's just not interesting. Heath is a cool guy, but he's not all that interesting either. This was a fairly pointless episode and just didn't…

I loved this episode because it gave us some new flavor. It was a welcome reprieve from last weeks gauntlet of misery. Ezekiel is a pretty great character, if only because he is so vastly different from everyone else. Carol, on the other hand is starting to annoy me with her running away shtick. It seems fairly…

To answer your question, post Negan, things are roughly on the same level as usual, but different in a way. Honestly, it's getting tough to figure out where Kirkman is trying to go. He just kind of seems to be making up situations that are interesting and have dramatic effect, but the characters have kind of stopped…

It's ironic so many people seem to dislike the show now, since the comic arc involving Negan is the best one. As a fan, I'm suspecting this episode laid the ground work for what's to come. As for how the show has shifted, it's still fairly faithful to the source material, and that still has a strong following, so…

That was a major problem for me too with the previews. Too wisecracky. Too smug, as you say. Mac always came off as more sincere and less about trying to be a Bond type. Everything he did was out of necessity. This guy seems to do it because he's an egotistical adrenaline junkie.

Yeah, she almost married a woman in that episode, who turned out to be a man. Kind of puts her sexual obsession with Richard Dean Anderson in perspective, considering she knew she was gay since she was a teenager.

Am I the only one shocked that the Kapernick rage crowd hasn't raged over the use of an American flag as a para sail as well? But I digress. No surprise this new series sucks, but one could hope. MacGyver was great, but it wasn't so sacred a TV ground that it couldn't have gotten a decent facelift with that same old…
