    It would be 3 TV movies airing on AMC very likely and not going to the theaters so no box office.

    the only way the rick movie thing works is if they tie it into the breaking bad sequel movie that just got announced. there was the fan theory that the zombie outbreak was caused by walts blue meth. what if the movie is jesse and rick teaming up to create a cure and end the zombie apocalypse?

    I guess I have a hard time buying any Rick storyline where he isn't trying to get back home to his daughter and extended family. If the movies just plan to ignore all that, then it's going to be strange. But, if they play it like he can't get back home but really wants to...and that somehow fits into a new narrative, then it might work. I guess we will see what comes of it. Personally, I thought they should have just killed him off. I mean...he lost a hell of a lot of blood. The zombies are still licking it up off of the miles of road he traversed. He bled out. Yet, he lived. Nah, man. Just nah!

    its just gimple trying to be clever and shocking. but he is so terrible in every way that it just feels insulting.

    fake killing off glen
    the 'who did negan kill' cliffhanger
    and now not really killing rick

    he likes to f*** with fans and that is why they have lost 75% of their audience.

    I did not watch season 9. It was everything I hoped it could be and more.

    Maybe that is the next bold/bald leader taking us to the Championship.

    the last two episodes have actually been pretty good - i think gimple is no longer creatively involved with the show...makes a big difference!

    they totally blew it with the saviors, but the whisperers storyline has potential.

    I missed last weeks episode, but I thought the intro they had into the series was pretty solid. I've kind of given up on live watching the show though which is kind of telling how even the dedicated watchers are kind like meh.... I'll get to it whenever now.

    The show now is basically a procedural drama. It just cycles in new characters, and new enemies. There's no point or purpose to the show other than solving the latest drama like Law & Order, or House MD.

    So the Whispers storyline looks like one of the better procedural storylines (like the cannibal procedural storyline), but this show is going nowhere, and has zero percent of my interest anymore.

    Yeah I was thinking about posting in here but forgot..

    The post-Rick era has started off great, i don’t know what it is, maybe the story line, but it’s just really interesting.

    I overheard some people talking about TWD the other day so it got me thinking. Does anybody still watch this show? I stopped after S8. Has the quality improved at all since then?

    I still watch this show if the Sunday Night Football game is bad or the Rockets aren't playing. It has not gotten better and they're actually doing another spin off: The Walking Dead: World Beyond. I never got into Fear The Walking Dead but I'll give this new spin off a try when it's released early next year.

    Question: if I missed the first half of the season in the fall but decided to watch tonight because there’s nothing else on, is there really anything I’ve missed important?

    Just go peruse the plot section for each Season 10 episode by clicking on each title on Wiki at this location:

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_The_Walking_Dead_episodes#Season_10_(2019–20)

    That's the quickest way to catch up imo.

    I’m pretty sure someone died of that helps at all.

    Some people that wear skins of the Dead and make little sound. Vague as I can be.

    I watched it last night. Felt like I missed absolutely nothing other than wondering where
    Michone
    was.

    Daryl clearly had a severed artery and would be dead in the real world. He sure recovered fast.
