Ugh...

I loved the original series and grew unusually attached its main characters. Now, it's gone on too long, and watching the endless threat of zombies combined with human violence has become depressing as well as truly stressful. I just want my favorite characters (The Alexandrians) to find a cure, live peacefully and rebuild their new world the best way they can. The End.

I'm 15 mins into ep1 and how reassuring it is to know that they still found the time to be teenage SJW's after the zombie apocalypse happened.

Don't know if I can stomach making it to the end. It's like a really bad teen drama so far.

I watched maybe the first 26 minutes. The promos already didn't make me want to watch The Walking Dead Jr. but I was still curious. From the beginning I felt like I was watching a Lifetime movie, from there on it was very "teen" heavy with the lead girl narrating from her book report or whatever. It doesn't appeal to me in anyway, maybe if I was a teenager. It was too shiny, clean, and safe. I didn't watch the whole thing, but I saw the end, and it was like, Iris, I think her name was going to kill a walker and I just thought, is this what they are going to do? I don't buy a group of teens going to survive in certain situations that we've seen others die from in TWD.

I get they want to build this franchise, but it only looks more like it's dying. I'd rather watch the same show I've been watching for 10 years. And I thought they were fine with just the Fear spinoff.

HUGE WALKING DEAD FAN...FOR 5 OR 6 YEARS...PARTIAL FAN NOW...THE FIRST 3 SEASONS ARE PERFECT TELEVISION...IT SLOWLY UNRAVELS AFTER THAT...TOO MUCH HUMAN ON HUMAN VIOLENCE AND TO MANY CHARACTERS WITHOUT THE REQUIRED CHARISMA TO CARE ABOUT....I STILL WATCH,BUT ITS MEDIOCRE TO KIND OF GOOD AT BEST THESE DAYS...I DROPPED OUT OF FEAR AFTER SEASON 1 BUT MIGHT TRY AGAIN...I DID WATCH THIS SHOWS PREMIERE...IT WAS OK...NOT BAD...I JUST HAVE TWO QUESTIONS...GROWING UP IN THE APOCALYPSE...THE MAIN FEMALE CHARACTER...WHAT HAS SHE BEEN EATING AND HERE IS SHE GETTING HER HAIR DID?

I'm not loving the first two episodes. I think one problem is they are simply going through the same motions we've seen countless times already. New inexperienced travelers have trouble killing their first Walker. I get it, but we've seen that many times.

Also, since they were in that community for 10 years, and even had the benefit of educational classes that Rick's group never had, I would hope these teens would be more clever than your average kid. Maybe they think of clever traps, strategies and weapon-creation. And maybe they learn the difference between reading something vs. actually applying and testing it in the real world. That would at least give the show a different angle.

But what we see is them traveling on foot, mumbling a few lines, grappling with a Walker and the SUSPENSE music kicks in like always. It's the same thing every time.

When they went to the tire fire, I wanted one of them to have the awareness of maybe trying to get to high ground to scope out fallback routes. Maybe spray paint the walls of some buildings to signify that this is there return spot in case Plan A fails spectacularly. I don't know...give me something to show the characters are thinking and calculating more, and not simply roaming slowly and mumbling low grade philosophy. We've gotten endless seasons of that already.

They are also doing a Carol and daryl show soon as well as the Rick TV movies. Apparently the next series of walking dead will be the last of that series.

I've only watched the main series so far. It's went on for too long but don't think multiple spinoffs is the way forward. It just feels like they are doing too much
