johnnydun Posted November 3, 2022 Share Posted November 3, 2022 Finally got this on Amazon Prime last night. Fair squeezing a lot of things in now that they used to spread out over 4 episodes. If only they did this about 5 seasons ago. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Squalor Vic Posted November 7, 2022 Share Posted November 7, 2022 (edited) Just watched ep 23. One to go, finish line in sight, I don't think I'll ever be so happy to see the end of a show. I know, I know I could have stopped watching but by season 8/9 I was so far in I couldn't chuck it. Right now, I barely have any idea what is going on or what people's motivations are. I could not care less about the commonwealth and the evil governor, Eugene is probably the worst character ever to be in telly and some of the acting is so bad it's quite funny. I'll 100% watch the spin offs that are coming though Edited November 7, 2022 by Squalor Vic 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ro Sham Bo Posted November 7, 2022 Share Posted November 7, 2022 Episode 22 was definitely an improvement. Hopefully they can build on that for the last couple and go out on some sort of high note. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

8MileBU Posted November 8, 2022 Share Posted November 8, 2022 Well there’s a whole lot to cram into the 2 hour finale if they want to stand any chance of something that even semi resembles a decent way of ending this show. I am fully prepared for disappointment and the words “you’re fucking kidding me” to come flying out my mouth. I feel a dreadful cliffhanger type ending incoming so those that have stuck with it to the bitter end are invested in the upcoming movies in the hope they finally give us a proper conclusion. Anyone know the score with Fear TWD? Is the next series going to be the last for it too? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just quoting this as I have heard this started back a few weeks ago (saw f**k all about it, shows how far it's fallen IMO). Not gonna read any further until this is done and I have binged the last few. If someone will tell me when the last ep airs on dinsey+ though i'd appreciate it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnnydun Posted November 9, 2022 Share Posted November 9, 2022 Although I enjoyed episode 22(?) I feel again, they are cramming stuff in that would have taken up 2 episodes previously, seems pretty rushed. Spoiler For instance, Oceanside being taken by the Commonwealth, was put into one short conversation. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Finale is the 20th on AMC so I’d imagine be up then if not the Monday 21st. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gav-ffc Posted November 9, 2022 Share Posted November 9, 2022 Spoilers below for what they need to wrap up in the last episode. Spoiler Commonwealth ending CRM + Rick Maggie and Negan to New York Daryl going to France Gotta be a major death or several if they aren’t going to be in the spin offs. Probably forgot a number of things to be honest. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hide contents For instance, Oceanside being taken by the Commonwealth, was put into one short conversation. It's like they got to about episode 20 and then realised they only had 4 more episodes to wrap the whole thing up. They could easily take the full 2 hour finale (and in the past they would have) to wrap up the cliffhanger at the end of episode 23 let alone the entire show. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was the focus for years in the beginning. I know we still have spin offs, however not everyone watches spin offs (I do) and it would surely be concluded in the main series you would have thought. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve been going back and watching some of the old series and in 5 when Abraham finds out Eugene isn’t going to be able to cure the virus is hilarious proper lamps him. Seeing some of the spin off shots especially the negan and Maggie one it looks like the cure isn’t in sight. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TWD should he concluded next week with the spinoffs being extra. I fully expect it to be left on a cliffhanger though so these arseholes can continue to milk this franchise dry. FWIW, IMDb have next week's episode as 1hr 30min. Is the whole "2 hour episode" including adverts? If so, I really don't know how they wrap it up convincingly other than it being 100mph for the entire show. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had little faith they could do it with 2 hours as it was. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FairWeatherFan Posted November 15, 2022 Share Posted November 15, 2022 I'm not really sure what people are expecting for the series finale. Everyone knows a bunch of spinoffs are coming, and they already did a series that did a timejump 'World Beyond'. Didn't watch that one. Doesn't seem like many other people did since it was cancelled after 2 seasons. I'm considering the Rick Grimes series to be more of a TWD wrap up. For the finale i'd guess Spoiler Standard fare. Zombie attack on the Commonwealth. Pamela ends up dead. The survivors from the regular cast look to rebuild the new Commonwealth. Carol being the major main cast death since she's not going to do a spinoff anymore. Which sees Daryl leave for parts unknown. His show can explain how he ends up in France. Maggie & Negan are part of their rebuild. Their show can see them called to New York...for reasons. Judith who has been narrating the story at the beginning of the episodes ends it with some small scale time jump. Or a time jump that doesn't involve most of the major cast since they don't want to tie their hands for the spinoffs. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pepper Posted November 15, 2022 Share Posted November 15, 2022 No we're nearing the end what are peoples defining moments from the show? For me, and in no particular order, they include the following; 1. Rick leaving (obviously) - everything post Rick should be considered a TWD spinoff IMO. No Rick = No TWD 2. Killing Carl - I know the actor had outgrown the character but for me the show had always been about Rick's struggle to protect his family. Lori's death was necessary to progress the story, but killing off Carl was a big mistake, and a total waste. 3. Ezekeil and Shiva - the moment the show jumped the shark for me - it had never felt like the adaptation of a comic up until that point - just no. 4. Favourite Character - Merle - brilliant - Michael Rooker is a great actor. His redemption arc was very satisfying. I've no idea how they're going to wrap this up tbh. I just hope the focus isn't all on the new strain of smart zombies. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boghead ranter Posted November 15, 2022 Share Posted November 15, 2022 My favourite character is Negan, tbh. The show's always been much better when he features majorly in an episode, especially once Rick was away. He also featured in my 'worst ever' TWD moment - in one of the season finales. Rick chases him into a field that has 1 single tree in, yet still gets caught by surprise when Negan jumped out from behind that tree 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
