I haven't watched The Walking Dead regularly in years but decided to check out the series finale, which was mostly okay, though it didn't fully feel like a finale since it has spin-offs coming soon. I thought Rosita's death was ridiculous. How did a walker bite her there without it being obvious? How long did she hang on before succumbing, because it seemed like a very long time? But the actress wanted her character to die, so...?

Things changed a lot in that unseen year. Whatever.

But the finale did give me some interest in some of the spin-offs. The least interesting to me is The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon, since the appeal of his character to me was always in his relationships to other people. I might've watched if Carol were in it, but her actress pulled out from not wanting to film in Europe. The Walking Dead: Dead City I may check out just to see how they handle the setting being New York City. Will it pass muster? Negan's in it, and I don't care about Negan. The bit of Rick we saw at the end of the series finale may make me check out the so far untitled Rick and Michonne series.

I don't have any better idea of how Mastodon works now than I did the last time I heard about a fandom exodus to it. Hive sounds like a bit of a scam, and it being app-only, no desktop option, isn't great either.

fandom, zombies, the walking dead, tv
