For whatever reason I just find the show pretty boring, not to mention about 2 or 3 times an episode something so illogical happens it throws me completely off. The show is just wildly inconsistent. About one episode a half season will be great, a couple will be awful and the rest will be meh.
I don't think it is a bad show but there are so many good shows on TV that I find the Walking Dead becoming a real slog to get through. I was pumped to watch it last night because I saw a ton of best episode ever tweets. I thought the standoff in the first 5 minutes was great. Overall I didn't think it was bad but I didn't love it either.
I don't know, maybe because I have a decent idea where the characters are going the stakes aren't as high for me. By the way I know I'm in the vast minority with my opinion.
