For some instances I would agree, but take last nights show for instance.
Too many storylines running in one episode to give them all their due. Those stories there should have probably been two episodes worth of story. You cut out 15 minutes of commercials, maybe they pull it off. If nothing else, its at least a better version than what we got.
I joked with the wife last night that the season finale's "90 minutes" show is what they need to do in order to get what we should normally get in an hour time slot, which is about 45 minutes.
Id be shocked to see more than 45 minutes of actual show next Sunday Night. It hasn't been advertised with "limited commercial interruption" like some of their programming has, so I figure its going to remain half and half on the ratio of program to commercial. [Reply]

I want a refund on my time for taking the effort reading the last several posts. [Reply]
My prediction is that Rick gets kicked out and finds, or is found by, either the Hilltop Colony or The Kingdom. And about this time Alexandria is attacked by Negan and his group and Alexandria realizes that they need Rick back.
you are jumping way way far ahead
they are following the comics VERY close right now and are about 25 issues away from what you have in there [Reply]

That's complete horseshit for a one hour time slotted show.
This is why I hate watching live TV soooOOOOO much.
TWD is pretty much the only TV show me and the wife will watch "live."
Everything else we wait until the end of the year and Prime/Hulu/Netflix binge... [Reply]

Perhaps, but we all know they don't follow the comic 100% so moving this up in the show would not be a huge leap. Again, just a prediction / guess. :-) [Reply]
