[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]someone told me they have this thing (all 3 FWD, TWD, and the Rick Grimes' movies plus some more) planned out for like the next decade.

This has gone on way too long. I agree with everyone that it reached its peak a few seasons ago.  there are only so many ways to pit humans against zombies.[/quote]

I think part of the problem is that you’re still viewing it as a show about humans vs. zombies, which it really isn’t. The zombies are the background for a show about people.[/quote]

This is true also.  As my husband said, it's not a show about zombies.  It's about what humans do to each other.  But still, the exciting story arc ended long ago.  Now it's just about who's going to supply food for what community, as well as ridiculous couplings.  It's sad that it's gotten so dumb because it used to be fabulous.[/quote]

The show barely covers the "couplings," and I don't really see what you'd find them so ridiculous about them, unless it really bothers you that they're mixed-race. [/quote]

Dp. It's not that they're mixed raced. It's the overstating of colorblindness in the form of every couple is mixed. It is heavy handed and pointless.[/quote]

So it bothers you that there are more mixed-race couples now. You would have been more comfortable if Jessie hadn't died so she and Rick could stay a couple, and if Carol had stayed with Tobin. And wasn't the show a whole lot better in the beginning when there was only one token black character and you knew that if they introduced a second one, one of them would have to die?[/quote]

You're missing the point. The producers of the show are overemphasing the colorblindness. It has nothing to do with my feelings on race. It has everything to do with feeling like the showrunners think we're so dense, we can't tell that race has no signifcance in the zombie apocalypse.[/quote]

I actually never noticed or stopped to think about racial makeup of couples in this show. So I don’t think it’s heavy handed. I do remember years ago when it seemed like there could only be one back man in the show. Now that was terrible. [/quote]

Way to virtue signal how color blind you are but you literally would have to be an imbecile not to notice. I thought it was very heavy handed as well.[/quote]

No. I’m actually surprised I didn’t notice before reading it here. I just didn’t. [/quote]
