I got Prime for a delivery after not having it a year or so, so finally caught up with the Walking Dead Season 8 up to a couple of episodes in Season 9. All while working so not paying huge amounts of attention.
I'm still enjoying it overall, but it's basically turned into a comedy show with a few highly watchable actors keeping it going. Jeffrey Dean Morgan could read the phone book out loud and still be super entertaining. The mullet guy gets some good lines to match his quirky acting style and Rick keeps me entertained with his 1000 yard stare and deep acting moments when he thinks about how much he hates Negan, only to completely screw up every single time he gets the upper hand in totally comical and unbelievable fashion.
In the meantime we've got a 60 year old woman acting like Rambo that never runs out of bullets and an emo 50 year old trying to do his best gravelly badass voice on a motorbike that never runs out of fuel.
I read most of the comics too so I know how bad they screwed certain things up, but it's still watchable to me, guaranteed at least a few laughs per episode.
