Walking Dead

[gunluvr]

So, new Walking Dead season starts tonight. Season 9.5? Season 10? Whatever.
Not anticipating an award-winning script. This series is getting lamer and lamer. Not sure why I keep watching, maybe because I've watched it from the start, faithfully.
Can still remember when they called it "The best series on television". I think the best evidence that this show is slipping fast is the recent previews for the next premier comes with the lame tout of "One of the best series on television".
In a world where nearly everything you buy is a new and improved version of last year's model, how is a TV series able to offer a lamer, more watered-down continuation of what came before? The writers are lazy. I'm just waiting for the animated version to come out, made in Asia.
