I have to wonder, how much of that is because they announced Andrew Lincoln's departure instead of keeping it under wraps, like they have for every other departure (save Morgan's defection to FTWD)? Or is it just a fall-off in the quality of the writing and show-running?
I'm tempted to think that the show just isn't the same with Carl's death. To me, the entirety of TWD -- much as it is in the comics to this day -- is a story about a father and son in a post-apocalyptic world. Take away the son, it loses something. Take away the father, and what's left?
I don't have high hopes for the remainder of this series anymore.
Ive not even watched the two episodes for this season, i just dont have the interest any more. Most of last season i thought was okay with a few episodes i did like but just been liking it less and less as its went on. Dont think ill start the new one at this point.
