TWD Season 7 thoughts?


Recommended Posts

What are your thoughts of this season?

Put your review forward.

 

 

Spoilers alert

 

 

My personal review is:- The script was one of the weakest they have ever had In TWD History,

From the beginning to the end of this season, TWD has had a very weak mismatched story line.

 

The Break Down

 

The season started with this dragged out hardcore border line Torture porn episode, Some people liked some people didnt, Fine. We cant deny It did its desired Effect of Making Neegan the most brutal bad guy so far.

 

From the second episode onward the show did a total 360 from the first episode and then changed to these small over sentimental personal reflection stories. I think viewers in most cases wanted the show to slightly back off from the Brutality of the first episode, But I doubt to many wanted it to become so sentimental, and soft.

 

Yes, We have seen that before in TWD before, however previous seasons the little back stories at least contributed to the main plot, Now these little sentimental stories in this season took too long and often took away from the main plot, So you had a situation where these little time filler back stories came at the expense of the Important main plot.

Often you were left not knowing anything about a new community or its characters that is supposed tobe a new ally.

 

weakest points in individual Scrips.

 

Carols script was just, WHAT THE F--k? I have no idea why they wasted an episode on her just moving into a house.

Her script was just completely all over the place the entire episode that spewed over in the entire season. Her script wasted time with a meaningless story that took viewing time away from the main plot lines that were needed this entire season

 

 

Morgan's script, Pretty much in the same vote as Carols, it was a waste of time. Morgan has always had potential to be a fan favorite, he character is being wasted with these weak meaningless scripts.

 

Sasha on Neegans assassination attempt, capture and death, and lack of Emotive impact.

The entire saga was rushed and also weak.

 

Rositta and Tara, their plots were the worst of all. This season has given them more air time than previous seasons, Im guessing to try and boost them into replacement fan favorites for the major characters lost in the first episodes. But nothing in their scripts helped make them feel like characters you really want to care about, you can see the writers tried to boost them into fan favorites but failed in that attempt.

 

King Ezekiel was wasted, An interesting character you wanted to see more of, Finally felt there was a character that was interesting and You were feeling was under used because they wasted time on Carol, Morgan and even Neegan

 

Neegan, Had a brutal beginning as an introduction, which left you just wanting to see Neegan dead as revenge to his brutality.

After about three appearances you wanted Neegan dead so we can move onto a new Bad guy who wasnt so annoying and so repetitive in everything he said and every body gesture.

His script consisted of the same one liners, ad same body gestures that were used in the first episode

Eg, you have some balls, I like that. Lucille is Thursty and so on

 

Now final Episode, you started Expecting some Epic Battle Finally.

then you have king Ezekiel who virtually only met Rick once or twice, kept completely out of the loop of his own choosing, decides he is going to war and come to the party with no prep with like 5 guys and his tiger comes and saves the day.

 

The filming was garbage for this silly little war, they obviously didnt budget any extra's to make the numbers look decent, Even when Neegan gathers his troupes at the end, The same Neegan with his massive army, the final scene with Neegan declaring war, with like 20 extra's standing around trying to look like his big scary army.

The season final felt like it was rushed and poorly thought out,

The Sasha Death, Well a popular Character and some how they managed for the first time on TWD, they failed on trying to make A main character death even remotely emotive. they tried but it failed badly

 

The positive, all I have sadly is King Ezekiel while under used, was interesting because the idea of a King with a lion was sort of so out there you wanted to know more.

 

So In conclusion to My review of this season,

The season was filled with too many little meaningless personal stories, at the expense of a tight main plot.

We have always had these little time filler personal stories, But never had them as confusingly meaningless that took so much time away from a solid main plot.

 

2 STARS

 

which I never thought I would lowly rate TWD

I hope they pick their game up on next season, Hopefully we get some epic war where they actually put some money into the fight scenes and make it exciting.

 

please post your Review, even if you dont agree with mine

Agree with everything you said, I am (was?) a big fan of the walking dead but this season was awful!

 

I was one of the people that thought the first episode was amazing! Not for the brutality but the way it made me feel, then I didn't feel anything for the rest of the season!

 

The finale was a total let down, while I knew Negan was never going to get hurt this season it would have been nice to see some kind of fight after EIGHT episodes of getting READY to fight.

 

Never thought I would say this but I am honestly not sure I am going to bother with season 8, I think the show has passed its prime unfortunately......
