Ok, so my season rankings
4 - loved them building something and having it taken away all again, the isolated stories at the end of the season were just eery. Having to survive alone and in pairs/triads after having had community was
was also interesting seeing the governor humanized then revert back to his savagery
3 - was cool to see these two societies develop and the different code by which they operated
1=2 - since 1 was so short, and 2 was only 13 eps, they kinda play out as one longer season. I actually want season 2 to be higher since Shane is by far the most charismatic actor this show has had so far IMO, tho I have faith in Jeffry "Denny" Dean Morgan. I liked these seasons as they did a great job of setting up situation and unfolding the new moral code. Don't know how people say Shane was psycho, he kept the group safe and functioning and wouldn't have gotten them into some of the fukkery Rick did, yea he wanted Rick's family, but Rick essentially became Shane, down to lusting after Jessie and feeling like he could protect her fam
5 - didn't really like middle arc of this season, the whole Beth extraction was stupid to me and a bit too
, but carol with the shyts blowing up terminus
and the end episodes where they have NOTHING but each other, damn near starved to death and shyt, again, that level of isolation and desperation was
6 - too much
this town single handedly takes down a 1000+ zombie horde, the ongoing games of capture the flag, the "I'm leaving" "I'm coming with you" "go after her/him" and schitzophrenic back and forth, unpredictable nature of the characters, especially it being done just to make the situation more perilous, was tiring. At some point the character is who they are, deviations are allowed, but it's literally episode to episode. I also wasn't feeling some of the romances, they felt forced as the characters displayed no damn chemistry, shyts came out of no where. Carol and the neighbor, ab and Sasha
, michonne and rick make sense, but dude was just simping that Jessie chick, i don't know. Will update once i finish the finale
Favorite characters: Carol, Shane, Darryl, Glenn
Least favorite: Sasha, Lori, Dale, Father Gabriel, Judith
Overall, I give the series 3.75/5, i see why it's crazy popular, i just hope season 7 is better than 6 (and 5 tho from one thread i read elsewhere, people seemed to love season 5)
