TWD with metaphor is like Negan with Lucille.

I was being sarcastic, Jordan. Maggie's amnesia regarding Beth's disappearance is a long-running trope of this comment section.

Honestly, I find it instructive to watch and talk about here. What it's trying to do is so transparent, and its failures are so blatant that it's a good lesson in what makes bad storytelling for tv. I've learned more about pacing from reading comments about TWD's shitty pacing than from anything else, for instance.

I don't know if I can take more Maggie grief after all she went through when her sister was missing and then died.

Ok, as I suspected you don't know what "camp" is. You just know it's something intelligent people tend to like.

You should totally boycott this site in protest!

Now you are just writing word salad.

I see what you're saying; I guess the difference is that I don't think the soap opera/melodrama aspects are intentional.

They put more effort into marketing than they do into writing.

How the hell is that "campy," Minime? I think you just enjoy arguing the opposite of what everyone says.

Oh please. This show is the opposite of campy.

TWD doesn't deserve to be compared with good B-horror movies. It's way too earnest for that.

I think only one hater has told people to stop watching the show. Compared to at least five fans who have told the critics to shut up.

It is!

There are apparently many, many people out there who watch this show for reasons that have nothing to do with its quality. It seems to be almost like a zombie reality tv show for a lot of people. "Don't kill Darryl!" is all they care about. I'm intrigued by it.

She got A haircut, but not this haircut.

To be fair, so was American Idol.

You forgot the one step where two good people blame each other for what bad people did, and argue about it for an entire episode.

Oh hey, I've been meaning to ask. How did TD handle the tearful goodbye to Glenn after the fake tearful goodbye to him last season?

My name is Barber, and I have a problem. I admit it.
