I would be ok with new walking dead with new cast somewhere else . But the same characters is beating a dead horse

That's what Fear the Walking Dead was. Then it just turned into the same crap.

It was good, but then they changed the showrunner and it became terrible as I recall

Yea because they want to continue the same peoples story when it should be a different people every season. Kinda like true detective would keep things more interesting

In my opinion it didn’t fall off . But how do you top Matthew Mcconaughey in general.

Second season was weak but the third brought it back, imo

My problem with Walking Dead (besides the fact that the author clearly hates humanity) is that nothing changes. They basically repeat the same story over and over.

group meets society that (somewhat) has shit together (even if morally questionable or just plain wrong) - Group muck's shit up with new society, creates war, - group goes off to find new society :P

Exactly. Group should be called 'the walking party-poopers'

They clearly need better writers . Everything seems so flat sometimes.

And nobody gets a happy ending. It's over a decade since the outbreak happened and there's still no stability. Everyone is still experiencing trauma that would put a real person in the psych hospital every other week.

Like this new character or relationship? One of them will get an arrow through the eye next episode. Crazy that a show has gone on this long when all but two of the 1st season characters is dead or 'missing'.

I've been burned out on the Zombie genre for like a decade at this point.
