It's you.

The first episode of this season was god awful boring, then the Morgan episode was way too long and boring and then this weeks one with whatever the heck that was as an aftermath was a little off point to me, personally, too.

I think season 1 was still the best season, new and fresh out of the box, closely followed by season 5 - including the beth bits, though I didn't think so at the time, I much appreciated that season as a whole once I rewatched it.

 

It's not just you, this season is quite good.

 

No, I've felt the same way. Though some of the episodes are not without flaws, there hasn't been a bad episode so far this season.

 

It's shaping up to be. But Season 5 is my favorite so I haven't decided if I like S6 more.

I wish every episode wasn't a certain group tho... I like where it was with everyone or even most the cast just a few people missing.

 

I completely agree. Each episode has done something for me, being individual in its own way. People seem to heavily complain about 'Now,' but the episode was completely needed to show the aftermath of the previous episode and the unstable dynamic within the group. Without episodes like these the show wouldn't be what it is, and would fail to be so insightful on the human condition. 6 episodes in and I know this is and will be my favourite. And for all those that have read the comics.....well lets just say Jeffrey Dean Morgan is going to 'blow your mind' :Grin:

 

After the first 4 episodes aired, I definitely thought that Season 6 was shaping up to be the best season yet; each episode seemed contained and each had a purpose, as well as providing some unexpected twists. Then "Now" aired and my opinion changed - I stand by my opinion that "Now" is the worst episode in the entire series; the never ending monologues that just rehashed things we'd heard ten times before, the random subplot of the diminishing food supply that was never ever brought up again, Maggie's storyline which saw her decide to go after Glenn and then decide not to because... the writers didn't want her to. And then there were the two romantic storylines concerning Rick and Jessie (who had no chemistry whatsoever) and Tara and Denise (which just sort of happened and hasn't really been revisited). "Always Accountable" and "Heads Up" were both solid enough but they needed to be better than that to sway my favour following "Now", and because of the slower pace in these two episodes, they failed to do that. Then we come to "Start to Finish", which, while I think some reviews were a little harsh considering it was a perfectly good episode on its own, it just did not work as a midseason finale and ended up making the season look like it was stalling for time. Luckily, "No Way Out" was a very good return to form (though not perfect), and the anticipation of the Negan storyline gives me high hopes for the rest of the season. I do believe that Season 6 could become my favourite if it delivers its full potential in these final 7 episodes, but currently I'd say it stands at firm 3rd/4th place for me, behind Seasons 3, 5 and possibly Season 1. I have a lot of hope for the future though, and it still remains one of the most engaging shows on television!

 

For me, I feel that this season has been brilliant. With the exception of the Morgan episode. I could have done without it.

 

First 4 were awesome. 4-8 were good. 9 and 10 were epic. And based on the comics, the rest of the season should also be pretty awesome.

 

5>4>6>3>1>2 but 6 isn't over yet so it could definitely surpass or fall behind the other seasons. Season 2 was my least favorite but IMO it had the best finale and a fantastic final 5 minutes of the midseason finale. Shane's rant was epic! But when I say 2 was my least favorite I still feel it was better then almost anything else on T.V. IMO definitely City of Men range!

Thank You~Jay

 

No, not at all. I think it's the worst. But it has been a decrease since S4.
All of my family and friends stopped watching already, I don't know how much longer I will keep up with this.

 

This is the most accurate round up of the season thus far! I agree that episodes 1-4 were awesome with 5-8 ranging from good to very good. And if episodes 9 and 10 are any indication of the tone and pacing of the remainder of the season we are in for a helluva ride. I do expect one or two episodes to slow in pace a wee bit to have the breathing room to add layers to the story.

At this point it is too early too decide where this season will end up on my list...will be vying for the top spot against season 5

 

I'm really liking this season a lot more than any other season, I think its the pacing of the episodes.

 

It's right up there for sure. Season 5 + 6 have brought me back to the series.

 

Not sure about season but episode 613 was awesome!
