They failed to impress.
But it wasn't with the story or the character deaths (I guessed who it was months ago) it was the "cash-out" advertising that went into it.
The commercials looked like they were from the Super Bowl. AMC must have charged in the millions because they knew they had a story line that would pull people in to watch LIVE. The commercials had stars selling products and after all that we sat thru a post-show that was longer than the actual show!?
All to cash the money in on viewers and I hated it.
Oh, I'll still watch the Walking Dead. I still believe they can put together a good story this season, but the massive commercialism sell-outs they've become makes me sick.
But at least it ain't "Fear the Walking Dead" right?

Last season's finale sucked.
The premiere sucked. To kill off *that* character after what they put us through last season? Despicable. I don't care what happens in the comics.
The show has jumped the shark, if it didn't already. Can they tell a good story? Maybe. Will they? Probably not. I've lost all faith. If I wasn't so invested in the characters, I would have given it up.

I agree. The Finale was shameful. I hope for something better this year but also have my doubts.
