I know something about that season and up until they left them prison was awesome. I think it has something to do with a certain cinematographer leaving the show and too many people trying to decide where the show should go after the initial success.
@@isaakfaulk8067 yes what happened was the director (i’m pretty sure) asked for a bigger budget while AMC refused despite the shows first season being a huge success. the director kept urging for a bigger budget so AMC decided to fire him instead. that’s why the writing had been so different after season 1
I also know that I watched all 6 episodes of the first season for a whole night because I couldn't stop and had to go to school early in the morning and my friend told me what a great series I found. We both became big fans. Unfortunately, the series just got worse and worse with each subsequent season. From season 3 or 4 at the latest you realize that they didn't know where to go and it was just about keeping the series going for as long as possible. I would have wished that in the end they would come to a big city or a secret base run by the government where they would explain more where the virus came from and whether they could heal people from it. it's a real shame that the first season had the best setting with the deserted town and all the seasons after that, especially after the prison any camps in the wilderness.
I was 13 in 9th grade when the series released, I remember asking to stay home from school that day and randomly found it when I was browsing through comcast's on demand library. So glad I stayed home that day.
Had the show continued, I’m pretty sure I knew how they were going to have to take it. They would have to meet a group of new survivors where things initially seem really good, but then they find something out that is really bad and that causes conflict. This conflict would divide the characters we know along with the new characters. At one point, everyone would realize that one person was orchestrating all the bad things, so they kill that guy and his men and move on. They would then have to meet a group of new survivors where things initially seem really good, but then they find something out that is really bad and that causes conflict. This conflict would divide the characters we know along with the new characters. At one point, everyone would realize that one person was orchestrating all the bad things, so they kill that guy and his men and move on. That is until they meet a group of new survivors where things initially seem really good, but then they find something out that is really bad and that causes conflict. This conflict would divide the characters we know along with the new characters. At one point, everyone would realize that one person was orchestrating all the bad things, so they kill that guy and his men and move on.
This series was like an old friend that you grew up with, had your fair share of good and bad times. But at some point you drifted, years later you bump into them and all the nostalgia comes flooding in. Felt this way watching this recap, thank you for this recap.
I watched up to season 7 and stopped, years passed and I honestly couldn't be bother to watch anymore but I was still interested in where it went so re cap it is. I was just kind of mad how long it went and how its just the same thing over and over, conflict here, conflict there, I was just tired of it all. There wasn't any real plot growth or world building progression. They wasted so much time on these stupid conflicts and after seeing the full recap after season 7, I'm glad I didn't continue to waste my time. The show will always have a special place in my heart, that being nostalgia and my enjoyment of the show, its just I really cant be bothered to watch anymore of it since its the same story over and over again, it like the writers didn't know you can still have conflicts that don't make a show repetitive.
Rewatched the whole show and 100% felt this. It has its moments of struggle but the show imo is far too overhated. The fact season 9 is actually good and considered by a fair few as a top tier season is pretty amazing considering the show had been running so long and had been considered fallen off by then.
@@ABeastG I actually liked him. His character was great. His hand to hand combat skills are top notch. I was not expecting that out of him. When Rick and Darryl ambush Jesus. That last sentence
What this series shows is that Rick's group has been responsible for the destruction of countless post-apocalyptic societies. Good or bad, they all end up gone.
Didn't stop watching because of Glenn's death but that episode was really hard to watch. My complaint is they went lgbtq right after, and they went hard got scared and started rewinding the dark, grittyness this show should be.
As someone who dropped off this series shortly after Rick left, because it didn't seem to be going anywhere, this is fantastic - it's like giving up on a book you were bored of, but having someone tell you what happened anyway just to cure your mild curiosity. Seems the series just repeated its beats with different communities, and different villains with dorky names. The zombies evolving sounded like an interesting premise, but they only used it right at the end? What a shame
"repeated its beats with different communities" (?) I strongly suggest you read human history. This is the path of development of humanity and civilization. So the series shows us how their civilization was establised. This is the real nature of mankind.
@@maskelibalon I "strongly suggest" you reread your own comment. If the show is mimicking how human civilisation developed by repeating the same trial and error situation over and over until they get it right, then they are literally repeating the 'beats' of previous plots in previous seasons now aren't they. What I was saying was that after several seasons of this, I got bored of the formula, and that's why I tuned out
All I know is Negan and Maggie are getting a spin off series that takes place in NYC, and Andrew Lincoln is contractually obligated to return to walking dead in some for or function for a movie or something of the like. So there is potential to continue the story and have the walkers evolve, but I doubt they’ll ever capture what made the first couple seasons so good
Here’s an explanation (or small details you miss) for those of you who are watching this instead of watching the show: 1.) Shane’s turning is when they realize that everyone has the virus in them. 2.) The little girl who Carol killed believed that zombies were just another form of people and that she could be friends with them. She killed her sister to prove to her that belief. Carol realized that she could never teach her otherwise and killed her. 3.) Go and watch Carol save everyone from Terminus. She’s a badass, and worth a watch. 4. Daryl and Beth form a wholesome bond. She’s the one who teaches him that when you white smoke it means the fire is out, and black smoke means it’s still going. That’s helpful for Daryl in the future. 5. Carol is a badass throughout the entire series. Just wanted to make sure you knew that. 6. On Sasha killing herself. Sasha and Abraham were a couple, so she especially hated Negan. Sasha takes a suicide pill soon after she’s put into the casket by Negan. She’s listening to Donny Hathaway’s song “Someday we’ll be free” while she dies. 7. Negan and Judith’s relationship is actually wholesome. 8. The one thing op did here that should have been done differently is when we first encounter the Whisperers. A horde of zombies walk past a group of hiding humans when the humans start to hear what they think are zombies talking to each other. That’s how that season ends. So as watchers we have months to speculate. Are the zombies becoming intelligent? 9. Maggie and Negan’s relationship is heartbreaking because we all know Negan has completely changed, and is good now, but it’s not just the fact that he killed Glenn, it was the brutal manner in which he killed him that Maggie rightfully can’t get over. And it’s sad because all Negan wants is to prove himself, but even he knows Maggie could never forgive him. 10. That’s pretty much it. Great video.
All the actors and producers watching this completely shocked and sad that some random guy managed to explain their 11 years of hard work and the actors hard work explaining the story is useless bc of this guy: (JOKE)
I feel like after Eugene pulled the 1000 IQ megamind move against negan. He became one of the most important and respected characters to date. He absolutely redeemed himself
His character was annoying and unbearable until that misfire scene. What an absolute genius. I don't know how that's even possible, but regardless it was an awesome idea.
Let's face it Eugene should have been dead long before he ever met Negan. He was a coward who deserved nothing more to be eaten by a hoard. The fact the he even made it to the end is shocking, but for him to be one of the driving forces in the (let's face it shitty) ending of the series is just a nonsense move. It doesnt make any sense and never will. The whole Eugene story line is bullshit and a huge cop out. Let's make the "underdog" the hero. He wasnt an underdog. Let's call it like it is. A cop out ending that should have been much better than it actually was. Such a disappointment.
It’s so crazy how after the prison, it led to some of the best solo episodes ever, yet as a whole it failed to deliver. If they took all the solo episodes and split the episodes up evenly story wise, it could’ve kept the attention of the audience better and not feel like entire seasons worth of filler
@@northgreen21 it shouldn’t of had episodes solely focused around individual or pairs of characters. I think it could of been better if we saw a little bit of every character in each episode up until they met up at sanctuary instead of how it was done
Basically they have 6-8 eps worth of story every year and rest is pure hollow filler. Hence why S1 was the best cos it was tight and tension filled due to less stretching it out etc.
The show peaked at the prison season. Negan is definitely the show's most well-written antagonist, but honestly the show ended after the death of The Governor. Fitting that a show centered around the concept of zombies became one itself. It was bitten at the end of season 4. Proceeded to limp on until Glen's death which ultimately killed the show itself, but continued on as a zombie for 4 more seasons as nothing more than a former shell of what it once was.
nah the show peaked from when the governor destroyed the prison to when the group was on the road for a season and a half and to when they first got to Alexandria. Everything in season 3 after Lori’s death was good but not amazing. Maybe Merle’s death too
Was it though? Not only was that the exact way that Glenn died in the comics, but the show gave everyone almost 7 months to prepare for that scene to finish and everyone knew Glenn was there.
@@BWynCmbs420you’re assuming most people read the comics. I didn’t even know it was based on a comic until Glenn’s death. Also the show isn’t 1:1 with the comic. They switch things up all the time. They could have let Glenn live if they’re wanted. But his death is important to Negan and Maggie’s character development.
@@allieboy181 I’m not assuming that most people read the comics, and I know they aren’t 1:1 either or else Rick would only have one hand. That’s why I went out of my way to also mention the 7 months that people had to prepare themselves for who Negan was going to kill… and Glenn was there for that… literally everyone had 7 months to prepare themselves for a death scene and it’s almost like they prepared themselves for any death besides Glenn’s. It was far from being unexpected, no matter who died in the scene because we all had 7 whole months to prepare ourselves for it.
That’s not what the show is about .. if you’re not watching you’re not paying attention at all. It’s about people and how they change with their environment. How they grow into completely different people (sometimes walkers) lol but no for real it’s about the relationships, making hard judgement calls that depend on life or death or between life & deal th situations, also how to read a person, how to learn from your enemies, how to SURVIVE AN APOCALYPSE! Amazing story lines and I couldn’t get enough personally… the characters that they found to play all these rolls over the years is what kept it SO amazing!! I love all the spin/offs too! Who would have ever thought a show would ever take off like this one did! I don’t think even after one ☝🏽 season did the actors themselves even believe that this show could ever go so far to become this popular amongst so many viewers.. there are so many fans now! That’s why I’m typing this right now! #I❤AMC for bringing this show to us through the comic books and the dark horror book series!!
The writers from the novels and comics could not have been any better I thought but to see how they wrote this from that and found such amazing characters to play these rolls and for these rolls to go on this long? Nobody not even the actors imagined this would carry on even after one season I’m sure… they had no idea how far it would go! We watched kids grow up on this show (Carl) for example he was so young and little in the beginning and his growth as an actor was so transformative to see him evolve into a young man! Wow! Just seeing Daryl grow the way he had! (Norman Reedus) Just Wow!! Carol even (Melissa McBride) and them finding all the other actors … just such an incredible series!! Made this decade for me as I love creative writing and good television 📺! I’m a fan for life!!
You clearly don't understand anything about the show. That's not how it went down at all. They were destroying villain groups, not finding good communities and ruining them in an endless cycle
I am certain that by this many years into a zombie outbreak there absolutely wouldn't be enough zombies left to make the herd the whisperer gather to threaten everyone with. The series literally shows them rotting and eventually they'd have their brains rot away too there's no way there can be that many left from the first wave.
Man you just reminded me of my all time favorite scene. When Alexandria gets overrun by walkers and they cover themselves in guts and start waking through the crowd Jessie’s kid panics and gets bit while Jesse hangs onto Carl and he chops her arm off. Hardcore’
I was actually not upset by the way it ended. I thought it was fitting and it ended on a positive note. That last scene with Maggie and Negan was BRILLIANTLY written.
How do you end a show about a post apocalyptic world. You can’t there will always be new threats. What they did gives us was a happy ending everyone seemed at peace Alexandrea was rebuilt for like the 5th time lol and for now they had no threats on them. But I did like seeing Rick at the end even if it was only like 2 minutes
@@ryans413 There are 3 new stand alone series comming 1. will conclude what happend to rick in the time he was gone and continue what happens when he reunites with michone 2. will be a series of negan and maggie going to manhattan to find maggies son 3. will be aboout Daryl
@@jonathanking9954 Fair enough. It was still brilliantly written whether or not it was what we wanted. I thought the scene was written so well. If you didn’t, that’s cool.
I stopped watching in season 7, but the love I had for this show. I binged season 1 in a single night. I started watching with my sister as a weekend thing. It helped us bond. After that, we both kind of checked in every sunday for a recap, but both of us eventually moved onto other shows.
Solid recap my dude. I stopped watching/enjoying the show many years ago, but there was always a "I wonder what's going on there" in the back of my head, just not enough to actually watch it. This was pretty awesome and helped hush that pondering.
Time flies so fast. I remember watching episode 1 on its launch night as a young kid scrolling channels and see a zombies “movie”. Little did I know, that 1 hour premier was a series! I watched the first episode as a movie and when I saw that next week there would be another episode I was hooked. Me and my mom watched ep 2 live together. I never missed an episode since. This was over a decade long of memories made and great story telling that got overshadowed by negative criticism
Alexandria could have been a great ending to TWD at season 5. Beth (and her B plot line and death) could have wrapped up sooner so more of the season could have been about the struggles of integrating. Then the W guys attack and Rick and the group prove their worth and become accepted. B roll of everyone living together and Rick making a small speech about finding a place to be happy. Boom, run credits
I decided to finally sit down and watch this show from start to finish. You can def feel the decline over the many seasons sadly. Nothing compares to the first two seasons imo.
Season 1 good season 2 it fell flat season 3 great season 4 started to fall flat again season 5 very flat season 6 started to feel good again season 7 and 8 great but that’s my opinion season 9 fell flat after Rick left season 10 very flat season 11 good. That’s just my opinion from watching the entire show
@@wolfypilot the show was becoming an over dramatized soap opera with zombies until Negan revived it. Didn’t help the soap opera part but man I loved Negan and was rooting for him.
This was one of the shows that my dad and I watched religiously together. We sadly stopped watching together after season 6 but we will hopefully be able to watch the entire show together again someday.
@@Robertedwinhouse38 yeah man me too, I often skip a bit when the guy just goes liek "in this video bla bla bla bla bla bla" like mannn I red the title lol
Small change that makes a world of difference: at 5:00 you say that the gunshot alerts the dead and draws them to the farm. The dead shown there are the same ones that saw the helicopter in the city early on in the series. They walked for dozens/hundreds of miles in a straight line, never deviating from that path, because they saw a helicopter once. It confused me earlier on so I had to check the wiki and when I learned that was the cause of them fleeing the safety of the farm it left a bad taste in my mouth. If such a stupid reason was in s2 then I knew they could just write out any safe haven they find further on [like the first Alexandria]. Edit: Wow the show really did devolve into just bouncing from one evil paramilitary group to another til the show ended.
IIRC Carol is the only one still alive from the original group, unless you count Judith. Maybe Rick, if he ever gets back from his vacation. Also, Season 3 Milton invented the bite proof jacket, everyone immediately forgot about it up until we meet the Roleplaying group hanging around the Kingdom.
The original community will always find their families back :) Rick,Daryl,Michonne,Carol,Maggie, and all of the OG is always heart touching amazing at the same time
The Walking Dead ( 2010-2022) 0:00 - Season 1 2:16 - Season 2 5:59 - Season 3 9:45 - Season 4 12:16 - Season 5 15:41 - Season 6 18:43 - Season 7 21:57 - Season 8 24:10 - Season 9 28:42 - Season 10 32:12 - Season 11 The Final season begins - The End
😢The only thing I’d say you missed that I would have like to see out in is the character who was an alcoholic army Vet named Bob. Terminus leader Gerath captured bob, after the group destroyed and escaped Terminus, along with a few others that escaped with Gerath and they cut off bob’s leg, cook it and eat it. Bob then reveals that he has been bitten and says the meat is tainted. I just thought Bob would be an honorable mention. I stopped religiously watching after Abraham and Glen died. Then I’d wait till the end of the season and just binged watch at the end of the season. But after Carl died I completely stopped watching. Just seeing little clips here and there. So this video is fucking awesome🖤💕🖤
Godddd my friends and I used to randomly shriek "TAINTED MEAT! TAAAAAINTED MEEEEEAT!" for a good laugh. I still think about it all the time. Bob went out a hero.
To point out Rosita didn't die in the Commonwealth horde. Luke got bit had to get his leg amputated and died from the blood loss, his girlfriend Jules got ripped apart by zombies and Rosita survived falling only to wind up getting bitten on her shoulder and passed away after final moments with everyone in Alexandria once the estates are blown up and the conflict with the Commonwealth is officially ended. Everything with Ezekiel taking over as leader of the common wealth and everyone saying their lasts words to each all happened after Rosita's death which there is a time skip between Rosita's death and everything else involving the fates of the character roughly two years after
ive been a twd fan for maybe 7 or 8 years, and this may be my favorite recap-style video of the series that i've seen so far, the way you manage to relate what happened in each season with such accurracy even if you miss details is satisfactory, and the way you told some relationships (cofcof daryl and connie, daryl and carol) waa great since you didn't assume mostly false romantic relationships and instead went by the obvious interactions between characters
Rosita didn't die that same time that Luke did. Jules did. Rosita was bit when they died and died later after the hoard of the dead was destroyed. Overall I really like this recap of the series 🙌
Tbf, there are THREE spin-offs that have been confirmed - Maggie & Negan, Daryl and Rick & Michonne are all doing separate mini-series. So we'll deffo still get the TWD fix! :-)
@@_boracic_atreus_23 yes I’m aware of the spinoffs, I just hope they’ll be good. I couldn’t get into Fear TWD(may give it another try) and World Beyond was trash
I think one of my favorite parts of the series was at the end when the walkers were evolving but that didn't really get enough screen time. Also, I would have liked to see someone survive a bite without being amputated or even a half walker-half human type thing which almost happened when walkers started using tools and climbing. I just rewatched the series and finished it last night and I was kinda left a little unsatisfied with the ending. It felt rushed and open ended, which after 11 seasons it shouldn't be imo. Although I know that there are spinoffs coming but still. The hardest deaths that made me ugly cry were Glen and Carl. I remember watching both, for the first time, vividly.
I was a major dedicated TWD fan and watched every season religiiously. The characters almost felt like family with how close we get to them and I'll have such a love and appreciation for this show. This is amazing, thank you!!
Thanks for summary. I dropped out a season 5. This shows that the magic number for this series was 6 seasons. After that it was the same old plot. Group starts out okay, group is threatened by a rival. Someone betrays the main group. Enemies become friends, friends become enemies, rinse wash repeat. Nothing really new or interesting. Nothing against the actors, but the writers clearly ran out of ideas, and just rehashed the old tried and true story trope.
Tyrese & Sasha and their group actually were chased off by Rick at first as he had gone a little mad. They ended up at Woodbury but later switched when The Governor showed he was crazy and wanted to kill Rick’s group
The Walking Dead was so well thought out at the human relation level. They did such an excellent job exploring how they thought human would interact in an apocalyptic setting and how relationships would evolve over time. However, and this is a huge problem, you really only need to watch 2-4 episodes a season and youll get the entire story that was told for a whole season. The very definition of all filler, no thriller (or in this case, little thriller) Although I am very happy to now refer to Andrew Lincoln as Rick from TWD. Especially during my wife's annual viewing of love actually
So glad this Chanel exists I keep up with walking dead on Netflix like many others and this recap helps so much because Netflix releases the seasons years apart
What an incredible story and journey its been, in the show and real life. I will always feel bitter sweetness for this show, started watching the night it premiered, 24 now
i really enjoyed the show as a kid when me and my dad would watch it together. but once Glenn died i couldn't be bothered i don't know why i just really enjoyed Glenn and everything he was one of the best characters along with dale, rick, and Shane.
as someone who stopped around season 4 but still watched random episodes from different reaction channels whenever a key character died or some shit like that, this was hella awesome to watch1!! thank u!
Having watched all 11 seasons, i can see why people dropped the series, but personally besides the ridiculously obvious plot armor at times, or over the top shit, it really was a good series, very excited to see how the spin off goes
I would have liked to see more of the downfall, the period of Rick´s coma, some background on the characters, how they survived the initial chaos. Mind you we got a wee bit of that in Fear....but say a storyline of a Pentagon or White House employee.
Thank you for coming to our middle school for career day, the tips you left were very informative+ this is a really good channel I watched this before I watched season 9 of the walking dead, have a glorious day.
Wow. This show was a roller coaster during the time I stopped watching it (when they were captured by the cannibals in Terminus) and it evidently remained a roller coaster but with more twists and turns. It’s hard to imagine that it went on for this long despite being so repetitive. I was still in my early 20’s when I stopped watching it nearly 10 years ago. How time flies
I also stopped watching during the Terminus bit. It’s so funny that I could enjoy a show about zombies for years, but the second people were eating other people, it was too much for me (specific phobia for me). Glad to learn how the story progressed.
I gave up watching after Glenn, picked up again a few years later, forgot to watch after the heads on spikes thing, and finally just finished and am glad to see this. You summed it up perfectly. The spin-offs are: Fear The Walking Dead, new one called Daryl Dixon & a new one called Rick & Michonne.
People who stopped after Glenn's death: Idk why you did it, because he died in the comics as well. But imo you did the right thing because in your version of TWD Carl is still alive.
We knew he was gonna die since spoilers were everywhere back then but nothing prepared me and my sister for that episode lol we stopped and only came back to watch this recap years later because I wanted to know how it ended.
I stopped watching some time ago, then when SNL spoof went viral, I checked it out again. One thing that really irked me is the Zombies/Walkers have shown to deteriorate over time. Unless a fresh batch of humans kept dying There should be no problem by now. The first couple of seasons had us all on the edge of our seat. What a memory!
I was obsessed with this show and watched every episode religiously until neagan killed Glen. I watched a bit afterwards but didn’t finish the last season. This was a great recap and reminder of how fantastic the show was. I wonder what they’re gonna do with Rick and them since the show is over 😮
Thanks so much!! I quit watching this show shortly after season 7. I recently heard it just ended and was suprised it was still on. Crazy to remember how popular this show was and how everyone quit watching around 2017.
Carl names the baby Judith after a teacher he had. Merle really makes me like him for what he does with the Guv. Most important part you missed. JOE!! When Rick bites his throat. Rick said they messed with the wrong people because of him having the confidence to bite Joe so that they would survive. They go back to Noah's community to honour Beth as she was going to accompany him. While there Noah's twin brothers are zombies and bite Tyreese. After losing so many they are in a barn A huge storm comes and they are saved from a herd by a storm.
@@langdonledwig3734 I might encourage you to watch it over again. You'll notice that most of the show just consists of Rick and his group encountering villainous group after villainous group and triumphing over them with little to no casualties. It's extremely formulaic, incredibly unrealistic, boring, and dumb. It's aggravating and insulting to watch. No wonder Rick and his asshole group members always make pretty egotistical statements when it comes to fighting a new group; they're all nonsensically overpowered. It takes away any tension and makes the show incredibly predictable and lame throughout. It's practically always a dull moment, and I eventually had enough. Looking over the few seasons I missed, not to my surprise, I found I didn't miss much. The only saving grace is that I'm not really disappointed anymore; I lost most of my emotion for it. I figured it was going to remain a boring slog, and I was right. But yeah, some people are okay with that. I just see past it, and am extremely opposed to that kind of garbage. Not only is it bad writing, but it's not even fun.
this ending was not perfect but it's good, I'd admit that I left TWD mid-season 7 because it was not the same anymore but I instantly hopped back in when it was the final season of the series (totally did not watch recaps of seasons 7 to 10). Now I'm willing to use all of the time I have left watching Fear TWD even though I heard that the later seasons get... yeah, I'm excited about the spin-offs especially the Dayrl one because he's literally in Europe. I'll really miss this show and this show really made me fall in love with zombie media in general even if it gets stale in sometimes.
Pretty crucial miss in the first portions of this video. Jenner tells Rick in private that everyone is already infected, but that isn't fully realized until Shane reanimates. This would have been the most climatic moment of the show to this point, second only to Sophia in the barn.
I'm only just now realizing season 10 had a guy named Dante, and another named Virgil. A guy descended into a Hellish madness and another who arrives to guide the hero.
I started watching this show when I was pretty young, probably in middle school. I fell in love with it and I was a diehard fan for the following years. The first ever merch I ever bought from my first ever con was a tshirt with the Don't Dead, Open Inside doors, I must've been about 15. I think I quit the show twice, once after Andrea died, then again after season 5. I've always wanted to go back and finish watching, but the more I waited, the longer the show got, and the worse the reviews. I saw all the hype about Negan and it got me curious, but to this day I still haven't had the drive to finish watching it, I've always felt like it would ruin my good memories of it. Maybe I'll give it a go after I finish my degree paper, I'm 26 now. Crazy to see how many people in the comments had a similar experience.
The more incredible thing about the walking dead is that it managed to finish with a satisfactory ending, few series managed to go for so long and have that.
Not everyone, Carol and Daryl didnt die, also Maggie and Michonne are almost from the og group. Tho i prefered having Rick die rather than a confusing and open end.
It’s actually quite survivable, in the scene he slices the front of his neck ( all major arteries are at the side) and he got his actual throat, meaning it would be hard for him to breathe, and he’d probably choke on his blood, it’s still far fetched as hell but if they cauterized it fast enough I guess it would have been easy from there
Negan is a sociopath who killed and tortured people for fun and forced women into having sex with him. I’m still shocked that no one went “fuck it” and killed him while he was imprisoned.
I’m still not letting go the fact they killed off Carl. It was the worst decision the show has ever made. Like they could’ve killed off Morgan with all his pacifist shit. Rick could’ve kept Negan alive cause of that. Rick still could’ve left and Carl should’ve taken over
good point, it would’ve been just as impactful if Morgan was struggling after season 7 with going from “all life is precious” to Clear Mode, and then he goes back to his pacifist mode just before he dies - either by walkers or the Saviors - and he could’ve left a note for Rick saying they needed to make peace and solve it without any more death, and Carl could’ve agreed and helped persuade him to spare Negan. like could you imagine that scene by the tree where Rick slices Negan’s throat, and Carl comes running up and has a powerful speech where he mentions Morgan’s wishes to spare him? it could’ve been so good. if only the showrunner/producers didn’t want to be greedy and killed off Carl just so they didn’t have to pay Chandler more money once he turned 18 😐
@@im_azraelle It was so scummy just writing him off cause he had just bought a house closer to set. And I honestly think Rick could’ve been written out the same way but it would hold so much weight for Carl who would have to step up to try and fill Ricks shoes at only 16. There was a line in season 4 where he mentioned he thinks he must be turning into a bad person. They could’ve had him be making the hard choices. Then after he’s grown into a capable survivor he would’ve got to reunite with Rick. Hell they could’ve even given Carl a kid at that point cause he’d be in his 20s I’ve spent to long thinking about this
Great recap, so good to remember all the plot points and where characters came in (or left) over the years. Only point I think was wrong was the ‘everyone is infected’ knowledge. This came when Shane reanimated (having not been bit) not when the group meet Dr Jenner. The Dr shown on the MRI had been bit. And thanks for not showing Glenns death again 😭
Ty mate. With all the spin offs I wanted a recap without having to watch dodgy season again. So you explained all the important stuff and I remember it again. Ty
Ended up crying my eyes out in the last episode. It’s been going on for literally my entire conscious life so I was very emotional to see it go away. Can’t wait to see the spin offs! They sound interesting and I am very excited to see more of Maggie and Dayrl, who two do the new shows will focus on.
I love how the longer the series goes the more stupider the zombies move and walk because theyre muscles are decaying and becoming more stiff, thats the reason why the survivors struggles alot when they are being grabbd by walkers.
Very strong start imo, then unfortunately during season 2 it begins to slow down quite a bit. Season 3 I felt improved a lot but then fell flat. Season 4 until 6 felt about the same if not weaker in story. Then Season 7 we get Neegan, love the guy, but felt he needed the HBO or Netflix treatment to really go all out. Wish he was more like his graphic novel counterpart. Then Season 9 we lose Rick, who until this point has been portrayed as the main protagonist. Some might argue Darrel has always been, but I truly feel it was Rick. Then the show turns into Neegans redemption arc and here we are. Not a fan of the show unfortunately, but loved how it started. I know from interviews that there was a ton of drama in the background with writers, producers and showrunners. Unfortunate, because this show had so much potential imo. This is all just my take on the series, I know a lot of people liked it, but I just wasn't a fan.
Season 1 is hands down the best one, it has that apocalyptic end of the world feel overall that I really wasn't really able to feel ever again, I have rewatched it at least 10 times. For me it derailed on season 2, just knowing all the great ideas that Darabont had for it, and I really hated the way they wasted characters with so much potential: Shane, Merle, Andrea, and don't make me talk on how they turned the most badass character into Rick's dog. I can't say that I haven't enyojed the other seasons, but it pains me to know that this series could have taken a much better path if they kept Darabont as the showrunner. After all, it was his idea to adapt the comic.

Season 1 felt and looked so cinematic… it was so good i remember binging it all in one night
I know something about that season and up until they left them prison was awesome. I think it has something to do with a certain cinematographer leaving the show and too many people trying to decide where the show should go after the initial success.
@@isaakfaulk8067 yes what happened was the director (i’m pretty sure) asked for a bigger budget while AMC refused despite the shows first season being a huge success. the director kept urging for a bigger budget so AMC decided to fire him instead. that’s why the writing had been so different after season 1
I also know that I watched all 6 episodes of the first season for a whole night because I couldn't stop and had to go to school early in the morning and my friend told me what a great series I found.
We both became big fans.
Unfortunately, the series just got worse and worse with each subsequent season. From season 3 or 4 at the latest you realize that they didn't know where to go and it was just about keeping the series going for as long as possible.
I would have wished that in the end they would come to a big city or a secret base run by the government where they would explain more where the virus came from and whether they could heal people from it.
it's a real shame that the first season had the best setting with the deserted town and all the seasons after that, especially after the prison any camps in the wilderness.
@@uwuthighs yay capitalism
I was 13 in 9th grade when the series released, I remember asking to stay home from school that day and randomly found it when I was browsing through comcast's on demand library. So glad I stayed home that day.
As someone who gave up on the show after season 6, I owe you a massive thank you for this closure.
Yup they should of stopped after season 3
Same here
Stopped after 3 myself it’s just same thing over and over
A lot of stuff he says is wrong like rosita doesn’t die and other stuff
I gave up when Carl died an glen lol then they got rid of Rick an I was really fuckin done
Had the show continued, I’m pretty sure I knew how they were going to have to take it. They would have to meet a group of new survivors where things initially seem really good, but then they find something out that is really bad and that causes conflict. This conflict would divide the characters we know along with the new characters. At one point, everyone would realize that one person was orchestrating all the bad things, so they kill that guy and his men and move on. They would then have to meet a group of new survivors where things initially seem really good, but then they find something out that is really bad and that causes conflict. This conflict would divide the characters we know along with the new characters. At one point, everyone would realize that one person was orchestrating all the bad things, so they kill that guy and his men and move on. That is until they meet a group of new survivors where things initially seem really good, but then they find something out that is really bad and that causes conflict. This conflict would divide the characters we know along with the new characters. At one point, everyone would realize that one person was orchestrating all the bad things, so they kill that guy and his men and move on.
Lmao
😂🫠
Don’t forget not double tapping the bad guy once he’s down only for them to come back once again and fight them.
🤣
Lol
This series was like an old friend that you grew up with, had your fair share of good and bad times. But at some point you drifted, years later you bump into them and all the nostalgia comes flooding in. Felt this way watching this recap, thank you for this recap.
This

Accurate
I watched up to season 7 and stopped, years passed and I honestly couldn't be bother to watch anymore but I was still interested in where it went so re cap it is. I was just kind of mad how long it went and how its just the same thing over and over, conflict here, conflict there, I was just tired of it all. There wasn't any real plot growth or world building progression. They wasted so much time on these stupid conflicts and after seeing the full recap after season 7, I'm glad I didn't continue to waste my time. The show will always have a special place in my heart, that being nostalgia and my enjoyment of the show, its just I really cant be bothered to watch anymore of it since its the same story over and over again, it like the writers didn't know you can still have conflicts that don't make a show repetitive.
Rewatched the whole show and 100% felt this. It has its moments of struggle but the show imo is far too overhated. The fact season 9 is actually good and considered by a fair few as a top tier season is pretty amazing considering the show had been running so long and had been considered fallen off by then.
“Rick and Daryl then meet Jesus” is so funny out of context
It's like they just met their biggest threat of their lives and they decided to reach out to Jesus for help 😂
it makes it sound like they had died lmao💀
It is.
@@ABeastG
I actually liked him. His character was great. His hand to hand combat skills are top notch. I was not expecting that out of him. When Rick and Darryl ambush Jesus.
That last sentence
What this series shows is that Rick's group has been responsible for the destruction of countless post-apocalyptic societies. Good or bad, they all end up gone.
Not necessarily
None of the groups were good.
Lol my squad be fucking shit up. There’s a popular theory that our people are actually the villains of this story.
Are we... the bad guys?
@@HarishNarayanan lmfao
It’s interesting to see how many people stopped watching after Glenn. I was one of those people. Interesting to see how the show continued on after.
Just like Troy Barnes from Community, Glenn was the charm of the show.
Having glenns death fake out like 4 episodes earlier really pissed alot of people off
It’s ok but it gets worse and worse more woke stuff repetitive and sometimes put me to sleep
Didn't stop watching because of Glenn's death but that episode was really hard to watch. My complaint is they went lgbtq right after, and they went hard got scared and started rewinding the dark, grittyness this show should be.
Season 10 was by far the best season and intrestengly Rick was not even in that season!
As someone who dropped off this series shortly after Rick left, because it didn't seem to be going anywhere, this is fantastic - it's like giving up on a book you were bored of, but having someone tell you what happened anyway just to cure your mild curiosity.
Seems the series just repeated its beats with different communities, and different villains with dorky names. The zombies evolving sounded like an interesting premise, but they only used it right at the end? What a shame
"repeated its beats with different communities" (?) I strongly suggest you read human history. This is the path of development of humanity and civilization. So the series shows us how their civilization was establised. This is the real nature of mankind.
Show was still good after Rick.
The whisperers war after Rick is crazy
@@maskelibalon I "strongly suggest" you reread your own comment. If the show is mimicking how human civilisation developed by repeating the same trial and error situation over and over until they get it right, then they are literally repeating the 'beats' of previous plots in previous seasons now aren't they. What I was saying was that after several seasons of this, I got bored of the formula, and that's why I tuned out
All I know is Negan and Maggie are getting a spin off series that takes place in NYC, and Andrew Lincoln is contractually obligated to return to walking dead in some for or function for a movie or something of the like. So there is potential to continue the story and have the walkers evolve, but I doubt they’ll ever capture what made the first couple seasons so good
Can we all appreciate how Recap made a 40 minute video without ads. Thank you.

@@MrDead00it is literally an ad. Idk why you're saying no.
I had adds
Morally generous but a great job😊
Here’s an explanation (or small details you miss) for those of you who are watching this instead of watching the show:
1.) Shane’s turning is when they realize that everyone has the virus in them.
2.) The little girl who Carol killed believed that zombies were just another form of people and that she could be friends with them. She killed her sister to prove to her that belief. Carol realized that she could never teach her otherwise and killed her.
3.) Go and watch Carol save everyone from Terminus. She’s a badass, and worth a watch.
4. Daryl and Beth form a wholesome bond. She’s the one who teaches him that when you white smoke it means the fire is out, and black smoke means it’s still going. That’s helpful for Daryl in the future.
5. Carol is a badass throughout the entire series. Just wanted to make sure you knew that.
6. On Sasha killing herself. Sasha and Abraham were a couple, so she especially hated Negan. Sasha takes a suicide pill soon after she’s put into the casket by Negan. She’s listening to Donny Hathaway’s song “Someday we’ll be free” while she dies.
7. Negan and Judith’s relationship is actually wholesome.
8. The one thing op did here that should have been done differently is when we first encounter the Whisperers. A horde of zombies walk past a group of hiding humans when the humans start to hear what they think are zombies talking to each other. That’s how that season ends. So as watchers we have months to speculate. Are the zombies becoming intelligent?
9. Maggie and Negan’s relationship is heartbreaking because we all know Negan has completely changed, and is good now, but it’s not just the fact that he killed Glenn, it was the brutal manner in which he killed him that Maggie rightfully can’t get over. And it’s sad because all Negan wants is to prove himself, but even he knows Maggie could never forgive him.
10. That’s pretty much it. Great video.
11 years in 40 minutes. Nicely done!
That is a super fact
He just removed all the filler episodes lol 😂 just kidding. It's well done
All the actors and producers watching this completely shocked and sad that some random guy managed to explain their 11 years of hard work and the actors hard work explaining the story is useless bc of this guy: (JOKE)
He left out Neegan raping Rick in the RV
THANK YOU!! From someone too scared to watch the entire season but intrigued enough to be curious about it...Thank you
I feel like after Eugene pulled the 1000 IQ megamind move against negan. He became one of the most important and respected characters to date. He absolutely redeemed himself
Eugene is the true underdog in the story.
His character was annoying and unbearable until that misfire scene. What an absolute genius. I don't know how that's even possible, but regardless it was an awesome idea.
@@haziyo he made the bullet casings the wrong size so when they fired in the chamber some got stuck and blew fragments everywhere, some just exploded
He was the savior of that moment for sure and even the season maybe
Let's face it Eugene should have been dead long before he ever met Negan. He was a coward who deserved nothing more to be eaten by a hoard. The fact the he even made it to the end is shocking, but for him to be one of the driving forces in the (let's face it shitty) ending of the series is just a nonsense move. It doesnt make any sense and never will. The whole Eugene story line is bullshit and a huge cop out. Let's make the "underdog" the hero. He wasnt an underdog. Let's call it like it is. A cop out ending that should have been much better than it actually was. Such a disappointment.
It’s so crazy how after the prison, it led to some of the best solo episodes ever, yet as a whole it failed to deliver. If they took all the solo episodes and split the episodes up evenly story wise, it could’ve kept the attention of the audience better and not feel like entire seasons worth of filler
I think I get what you mean, what do you mean by splitting the episodes up evenly story wise though?
@@northgreen21 it shouldn’t of had episodes solely focused around individual or pairs of characters. I think it could of been better if we saw a little bit of every character in each episode up until they met up at sanctuary instead of how it was done
@@xJDMWaRRi0Rx Oh yeah I see what you mean now. Yeah I agree that probably would've made things a bit better.
like who tf cares about tara being at oceanside boring
Basically they have 6-8 eps worth of story every year and rest is pure hollow filler. Hence why S1 was the best cos it was tight and tension filled due to less stretching it out etc.
The show peaked at the prison season. Negan is definitely the show's most well-written antagonist, but honestly the show ended after the death of The Governor. Fitting that a show centered around the concept of zombies became one itself. It was bitten at the end of season 4. Proceeded to limp on until Glen's death which ultimately killed the show itself, but continued on as a zombie for 4 more seasons as nothing more than a former shell of what it once was.
@ko7577If you were forced to do something all day every day for like 10-15 years and weren’t able to do it with ur eyes closed I’d be concerned
It peaked in series 5
S1-9 were perfect
nah the show peaked from when the governor destroyed the prison to when the group was on the road for a season and a half and to when they first got to Alexandria. Everything in season 3 after Lori’s death was good but not amazing. Maybe Merle’s death too
Glenn's death was a turning point in the show not only because he was a favorite, but because it was so brutal and unexpected.
Was it though? Not only was that the exact way that Glenn died in the comics, but the show gave everyone almost 7 months to prepare for that scene to finish and everyone knew Glenn was there.
@@BWynCmbs420you’re assuming most people read the comics. I didn’t even know it was based on a comic until Glenn’s death. Also the show isn’t 1:1 with the comic.
They switch things up all the time. They could have let Glenn live if they’re wanted. But his death is important to Negan and Maggie’s character development.
@@allieboy181 I’m not assuming that most people read the comics, and I know they aren’t 1:1 either or else Rick would only have one hand. That’s why I went out of my way to also mention the 7 months that people had to prepare themselves for who Negan was going to kill… and Glenn was there for that… literally everyone had 7 months to prepare themselves for a death scene and it’s almost like they prepared themselves for any death besides Glenn’s. It was far from being unexpected, no matter who died in the scene because we all had 7 whole months to prepare ourselves for it.
Literally everyone expected Glen to get his eye popped.
Yeah I was really disappointed when they killed Hershel and glen. They were definitely up there with my favorites.
You can summarize most of the seasons the exact same way. Ricks group finds safe place. Safe place gets destroyed. It gets old pretty quickly.
That’s not what the show is about .. if you’re not watching you’re not paying attention at all.
It’s about people and how they change with their environment. How they grow into completely different people (sometimes walkers) lol but no for real it’s about the relationships, making hard judgement calls that depend on life or death or between life & deal th situations, also how to read a person, how to learn from your enemies, how to SURVIVE AN APOCALYPSE!
Amazing story lines and I couldn’t get enough personally… the characters that they found to play all these rolls over the years is what kept it SO amazing!!
I love all the spin/offs too! Who would have ever thought a show would ever take off like this one did! I don’t think even after one ☝🏽 season did the actors themselves even believe that this show could ever go so far to become this popular amongst so many viewers.. there are so many fans now!
That’s why I’m typing this right now! #I❤AMC for bringing this show to us through the comic books and the dark horror book series!!
The writers from the novels and comics could not have been any better I thought but to see how they wrote this from that and found such amazing characters to play these rolls and for these rolls to go on this long? Nobody not even the actors imagined this would carry on even after one season I’m sure… they had no idea how far it would go! We watched kids grow up on this show (Carl) for example he was so young and little in the beginning and his growth as an actor was so transformative to see him evolve into a young man! Wow! Just seeing Daryl grow the way he had! (Norman Reedus)
Just Wow!!
Carol even (Melissa McBride) and them finding all the other actors … just such an incredible series!! Made this decade for me as I love creative writing and good television 📺!
I’m a fan for life!!
Thought I was the only one who noticed.
True but they stay in Alexandria for pretty much the entire second half of the series.
You clearly don't understand anything about the show. That's not how it went down at all. They were destroying villain groups, not finding good communities and ruining them in an endless cycle
I am certain that by this many years into a zombie outbreak there absolutely wouldn't be enough zombies left to make the herd the whisperer gather to threaten everyone with. The series literally shows them rotting and eventually they'd have their brains rot away too there's no way there can be that many left from the first wave.
Damn your right they talked about how the walkers are rotting away I forgot about that
@@derek1417 The show forgot about it too 😂
@@isaakfaulk8067 didn’t forget about the grass though lmfao
Right! Did I see one pick up a rock? Like how!??!
You turn when you die though. As long as there’s humans there will always be zombies.
Man you just reminded me of my all time favorite scene. When Alexandria gets overrun by walkers and they cover themselves in guts and start waking through the crowd Jessie’s kid panics and gets bit while Jesse hangs onto Carl and he chops her arm off. Hardcore’
Same! Favorite part of the series.
I had to skip that part 😂😂😂 I can not handle kids dying but I lowkey blame the kid and Jesse for that he could’ve stayed with Gabriel but no 😂😂😂
Yeah that was a trick from the earlier seasons where Rick and Glenn cover themselves in Guts to escape Atlantas Downtown.
omg sooooo true and the scene with carl turning around saying ' DAD" after getting shot in the eye. SPEECHLESS!!
I was actually not upset by the way it ended. I thought it was fitting and it ended on a positive note. That last scene with Maggie and Negan was BRILLIANTLY written.
How do you end a show about a post apocalyptic world. You can’t there will always be new threats. What they did gives us was a happy ending everyone seemed at peace Alexandrea was rebuilt for like the 5th time lol and for now they had no threats on them.

Solid recap my dude. I stopped watching/enjoying the show many years ago, but there was always a "I wonder what's going on there" in the back of my head, just not enough to actually watch it. This was pretty awesome and helped hush that pondering.

Time flies so fast. I remember watching episode 1 on its launch night as a young kid scrolling channels and see a zombies “movie”. Little did I know, that 1 hour premier was a series! I watched the first episode as a movie and when I saw that next week there would be another episode I was hooked. Me and my mom watched ep 2 live together. I never missed an episode since.

I didn't watch episodes live until somewhere into the season they were in the farm.
Alexandria could have been a great ending to TWD at season 5. Beth (and her B plot line and death) could have wrapped up sooner so more of the season could have been about the struggles of integrating. Then the W guys attack and Rick and the group prove their worth and become accepted. B roll of everyone living together and Rick making a small speech about finding a place to be happy. Boom, run credits
Can I just say how much I appreciate/love that you started out the recap as soon as the video started. Thank you!!
I decided to finally sit down and watch this show from start to finish. You can def feel the decline over the many seasons sadly. Nothing compares to the first two seasons imo.
The characters became so unlikable . I couldn’t stand Sasha, Rosita , Tara , Gabe , Bob. Happy most of then died
Season 1 good season 2 it fell flat season 3 great season 4 started to fall flat again season 5 very flat season 6 started to feel good again season 7 and 8 great but that’s my opinion season 9 fell flat after Rick left season 10 very flat season 11 good.

Small change that makes a world of difference: at 5:00 you say that the gunshot alerts the dead and draws them to the farm. The dead shown there are the same ones that saw the helicopter in the city early on in the series. They walked for dozens/hundreds of miles in a straight line, never deviating from that path, because they saw a helicopter once.
It confused me earlier on so I had to check the wiki and when I learned that was the cause of them fleeing the safety of the farm it left a bad taste in my mouth. If such a stupid reason was in s2 then I knew they could just write out any safe haven they find further on [like the first Alexandria].
Edit: Wow the show really did devolve into just bouncing from one evil paramilitary group to another til the show ended.
Lazy writing.

It’s in the description
😢The only thing I’d say you missed that I would have like to see out in is the character who was an alcoholic army Vet named Bob. Terminus leader Gerath captured bob, after the group destroyed and escaped Terminus, along with a few others that escaped with Gerath and they cut off bob’s leg, cook it and eat it. Bob then reveals that he has been bitten and says the meat is tainted.
I just thought Bob would be an honorable mention.
I stopped religiously watching after Abraham and Glen died. Then I’d wait till the end of the season and just binged watch at the end of the season.
But after Carl died I completely stopped watching. Just seeing little clips here and there. So this video is fucking awesome🖤💕🖤
Godddd my friends and I used to randomly shriek "TAINTED MEAT! TAAAAAINTED MEEEEEAT!" for a good laugh. I still think about it all the time. Bob went out a hero.
Deserves 1 million plus views. Saved me many hours with this

@@markoalidinata6736 I think that if he would decide to watch whole series it would take few months
To point out Rosita didn't die in the Commonwealth horde. Luke got bit had to get his leg amputated and died from the blood loss, his girlfriend Jules got ripped apart by zombies and Rosita survived falling only to wind up getting bitten on her shoulder and passed away after final moments with everyone in Alexandria once the estates are blown up and the conflict with the Commonwealth is officially ended. Everything with Ezekiel taking over as leader of the common wealth and everyone saying their lasts words to each all happened after Rosita's death which there is a time skip between Rosita's death and everything else involving the fates of the character roughly two years after
The timeskip was one year not two.
ive been a twd fan for maybe 7 or 8 years, and this may be my favorite recap-style video of the series that i've seen so far, the way you manage to relate what happened in each season with such accurracy even if you miss details is satisfactory, and the way you told some relationships (cofcof daryl and connie, daryl and carol) waa great since you didn't assume mostly false romantic relationships and instead went by the obvious interactions between characters
Rosita didn't die that same time that Luke did. Jules did. Rosita was bit when they died and died later after the hoard of the dead was destroyed. Overall I really like this recap of the series 🙌

Still if there’s no walking dead you can get your fix with HBOs Last Of Us airing soon
@@_boracic_atreus_23 yes I’m aware of the spinoffs, I just hope they’ll be good. I couldn’t get into Fear TWD(may give it another try) and World Beyond was trash
@@ryans413 yeah, I have high hopes for that show. Not sure it will do the games any justice but hopefully it’s at least decent.
I think one of my favorite parts of the series was at the end when the walkers were evolving but that didn't really get enough screen time. Also, I would have liked to see someone survive a bite without being amputated or even a half walker-half human type thing which almost happened when walkers started using tools and climbing. I just rewatched the series and finished it last night and I was kinda left a little unsatisfied with the ending. It felt rushed and open ended, which after 11 seasons it shouldn't be imo. Although I know that there are spinoffs coming but still. The hardest deaths that made me ugly cry were Glen and Carl. I remember watching both, for the first time, vividly.
you should watch "all of us are dead"
@@tookie.2427 ill check it out :)
I was a major dedicated TWD fan and watched every season religiiously. The characters almost felt like family with how close we get to them and I'll have such a love and appreciation for this show. This is amazing, thank you!!
Do you mean to tell us that you have watched Seasons 4-? more than one time each! Yet, you're still alive to tell us about it. I call bs
@@jackmeeks2294 yes I’ve seen season 1-10 twice since i rewatched it with someone. (it was only the first half of season 10 though)
Thanks for summary. I dropped out a season 5. This shows that the magic number for this series was 6 seasons. After that it was the same old plot. Group starts out okay, group is threatened by a rival. Someone betrays the main group. Enemies become friends, friends become enemies, rinse wash repeat. Nothing really new or interesting. Nothing against the actors, but the writers clearly ran out of ideas, and just rehashed the old tried and true story trope.
do you know that the story of the show follow the story of the comics ???
Tyrese & Sasha and their group actually were chased off by Rick at first as he had gone a little mad. They ended up at Woodbury but later switched when The Governor showed he was crazy and wanted to kill Rick’s group
The Walking Dead was so well thought out at the human relation level. They did such an excellent job exploring how they thought human would interact in an apocalyptic setting and how relationships would evolve over time.
However, and this is a huge problem, you really only need to watch 2-4 episodes a season and youll get the entire story that was told for a whole season. The very definition of all filler, no thriller (or in this case, little thriller)
Although I am very happy to now refer to Andrew Lincoln as Rick from TWD. Especially during my wife's annual viewing of love actually
So glad this Chanel exists I keep up with walking dead on Netflix like many others and this recap helps so much because Netflix releases the seasons years apart
What an incredible story and journey its been, in the show and real life. I will always feel bitter sweetness for this show, started watching the night it premiered, 24 now
i really enjoyed the show as a kid when me and my dad would watch it together. but once Glenn died i couldn't be bothered i don't know why i just really enjoyed Glenn and everything he was one of the best characters along with dale, rick, and Shane.
as someone who stopped around season 4 but still watched random episodes from different reaction channels whenever a key character died or some shit like that, this was hella awesome to watch1!! thank u!
Having watched all 11 seasons, i can see why people dropped the series, but personally besides the ridiculously obvious plot armor at times, or over the top shit, it really was a good series, very excited to see how the spin off goes
I would have liked to see more of the downfall, the period of Rick´s coma, some background on the characters, how they survived the initial chaos. Mind you we got a wee bit of that in Fear....but say a storyline of a Pentagon or White House employee.
Thank you for coming to our middle school for career day, the tips you left were very informative+ this is a really good channel I watched this before I watched season 9 of the walking dead, have a glorious day.
Wow. This show was a roller coaster during the time I stopped watching it (when they were captured by the cannibals in Terminus) and it evidently remained a roller coaster but with more twists and turns. It’s hard to imagine that it went on for this long despite being so repetitive. I was still in my early 20’s when I stopped watching it nearly 10 years ago. How time flies
I also stopped watching during the Terminus bit. It’s so funny that I could enjoy a show about zombies for years, but the second people were eating other people, it was too much for me (specific phobia for me). Glad to learn how the story progressed.
I gave up watching after Glenn, picked up again a few years later, forgot to watch after the heads on spikes thing, and finally just finished and am glad to see this. You summed it up perfectly. The spin-offs are: Fear The Walking Dead, new one called Daryl Dixon & a new one called Rick & Michonne.
and dead city ;)
Let's not forget The World Beyond and all the webisodes
People who stopped after Glenn's death: Idk why you did it, because he died in the comics as well. But imo you did the right thing because in your version of TWD Carl is still alive.
I stopped watching not because they killed Glenn, but the whole season cliffhanger of who dies, seemed incredibly cheap and I didnt care enough
That is when I stopped is when they killed Carl
Carl doesn’t die in the comic books?
Exactly 😎
We knew he was gonna die since spoilers were everywhere back then but nothing prepared me and my sister for that episode lol we stopped and only came back to watch this recap years later because I wanted to know how it ended.
I stopped watching some time ago, then when SNL spoof went viral, I checked it out again. One thing that really irked me is the Zombies/Walkers have shown to deteriorate over time. Unless a fresh batch of humans kept dying There should be no problem by now. The first couple of seasons had us all on the edge of our seat. What a memory!
I was obsessed with this show and watched every episode religiously until neagan killed Glen. I watched a bit afterwards but didn’t finish the last season. This was a great recap and reminder of how fantastic the show was.
I wonder what they’re gonna do with Rick and them since the show is over 😮
Thanks so much!! I quit watching this show shortly after season 7. I recently heard it just ended and was suprised it was still on. Crazy to remember how popular this show was and how everyone quit watching around 2017.
Thank you for this! It took me back to my love for the show and how Rick became my favorite character of all time. You’re a real one!
Carl names the baby Judith after a teacher he had. Merle really makes me like him for what he does with the Guv. Most important part you missed. JOE!! When Rick bites his throat. Rick said they messed with the wrong people because of him having the confidence to bite Joe so that they would survive. They go back to Noah's community to honour Beth as she was going to accompany him. While there Noah's twin brothers are zombies and bite Tyreese. After losing so many they are in a barn A huge storm comes and they are saved from a herd by a storm.
We appreciate tge recap with no ads. The show was painfully slow paced. This was an awesome way to experience the story. Thank you
Thank you for this. That was SO much better than having to watch the last few years of repetition.
The way you plug that Adam and Eve sponsorship was hilarious. Bravo
I abandoned the series in the fifth season, this summary came in very handy for me. Thank you!!
Missing out bro
@@themoongateofficial @Nadia Bueno You're really not, though. Most of the show is dogshit, unfortunately.
@@dusanradojkovic8190 I personally disagree besides season 8 of course
@@langdonledwig3734 I might encourage you to watch it over again. You'll notice that most of the show just consists of Rick and his group encountering villainous group after villainous group and triumphing over them with little to no casualties. It's extremely formulaic, incredibly unrealistic, boring, and dumb. It's aggravating and insulting to watch. No wonder Rick and his asshole group members always make pretty egotistical statements when it comes to fighting a new group; they're all nonsensically overpowered. It takes away any tension and makes the show incredibly predictable and lame throughout. It's practically always a dull moment, and I eventually had enough. Looking over the few seasons I missed, not to my surprise, I found I didn't miss much. The only saving grace is that I'm not really disappointed anymore; I lost most of my emotion for it. I figured it was going to remain a boring slog, and I was right.
But yeah, some people are okay with that. I just see past it, and am extremely opposed to that kind of garbage. Not only is it bad writing, but it's not even fun.
@@dusanradojkovic8190 totally agree with you, crazy that some people just don't see stuff like that
Don't know how the hell you got this up so fast, especially the last episode!
Most likely he gets eps early as a reviewer. Also, he could’ve put all of this together prior to the finale, and then added the finale part.
Since season 1 nothing has changed.. Safe place found, safe place destroyed, new safe place found, safe place destroyed and repeat
Thank you for giving us this recap of the series. I especially appreciate that it was straight and to the point. 👍
this ending was not perfect but it's good, I'd admit that I left TWD mid-season 7 because it was not the same anymore but I instantly hopped back in when it was the final season of the series (totally did not watch recaps of seasons 7 to 10). Now I'm willing to use all of the time I have left watching Fear TWD even though I heard that the later seasons get... yeah, I'm excited about the spin-offs especially the Dayrl one because he's literally in Europe. I'll really miss this show and this show really made me fall in love with zombie media in general even if it gets stale in sometimes.
Pretty crucial miss in the first portions of this video. Jenner tells Rick in private that everyone is already infected, but that isn't fully realized until Shane reanimates. This would have been the most climatic moment of the show to this point, second only to Sophia in the barn.
I'm only just now realizing season 10 had a guy named Dante, and another named Virgil. A guy descended into a Hellish madness and another who arrives to guide the hero.
I started watching this show when I was pretty young, probably in middle school. I fell in love with it and I was a diehard fan for the following years. The first ever merch I ever bought from my first ever con was a tshirt with the Don't Dead, Open Inside doors, I must've been about 15. I think I quit the show twice, once after Andrea died, then again after season 5. I've always wanted to go back and finish watching, but the more I waited, the longer the show got, and the worse the reviews. I saw all the hype about Negan and it got me curious, but to this day I still haven't had the drive to finish watching it, I've always felt like it would ruin my good memories of it. Maybe I'll give it a go after I finish my degree paper, I'm 26 now. Crazy to see how many people in the comments had a similar experience.
I always wondered if I missed out on anything by stopping at season 4. Let's just say I'm glad I watched this recap.
The more incredible thing about the walking dead is that it managed to finish with a satisfactory ending, few series managed to go for so long and have that.
i’ve watched every episode as they came out. i’ve sat through 12 years of commercials 😢 I LOVE YOU TWD FAMILY! 💔
Please share what characters you didnt care for 😌
@@Littlekitten_ i loved every character i dont think i ever hated any like that
I’m just shocked that Rick has survived this long when everyone has been killed!
Not everyone, Carol and Daryl didnt die, also Maggie and Michonne are almost from the og group. Tho i prefered having Rick die rather than a confusing and open end.
Watch the continuation of Morgan and Dwight's stories in our full series recap of Fear the Walking Dead:
th-cam.com/video/c3EyZqEDKxA/w-d-xo.html
I stopped watching ever since Glen’s death. Great recap 👍
The fact that Rick SLASHES Negans throat and he didn’t die was the moment I stopped watching
It’s actually quite survivable, in the scene he slices the front of his neck ( all major arteries are at the side) and he got his actual throat, meaning it would be hard for him to breathe, and he’d probably choke on his blood, it’s still far fetched as hell but if they cauterized it fast enough I guess it would have been easy from there
@@WNT2BLV You know its based on a comicbook, right?
@@WNT2BLV what makes me mad is that they tryna make a spin-off now and tryna make him seem like a nice guy. The guy literally bashed peoples heads in
Negan is a sociopath who killed and tortured people for fun and forced women into having sex with him. I’m still shocked that no one went “fuck it” and killed him while he was imprisoned.
@@colinwall8804 after our group killed 30 of his group in their sleep
I’m still not letting go the fact they killed off Carl. It was the worst decision the show has ever made. Like they could’ve killed off Morgan with all his pacifist shit. Rick could’ve kept Negan alive cause of that. Rick still could’ve left and Carl should’ve taken over
good point, it would’ve been just as impactful if Morgan was struggling after season 7 with going from “all life is precious” to Clear Mode, and then he goes back to his pacifist mode just before he dies - either by walkers or the Saviors - and he could’ve left a note for Rick saying they needed to make peace and solve it without any more death, and Carl could’ve agreed and helped persuade him to spare Negan. like could you imagine that scene by the tree where Rick slices Negan’s throat, and Carl comes running up and has a powerful speech where he mentions Morgan’s wishes to spare him? it could’ve been so good. if only the showrunner/producers didn’t want to be greedy and killed off Carl just so they didn’t have to pay Chandler more money once he turned 18 😐
@@im_azraelle It was so scummy just writing him off cause he had just bought a house closer to set.
And I honestly think Rick could’ve been written out the same way but it would hold so much weight for Carl who would have to step up to try and fill Ricks shoes at only 16. There was a line in season 4 where he mentioned he thinks he must be turning into a bad person. They could’ve had him be making the hard choices. Then after he’s grown into a capable survivor he would’ve got to reunite with Rick. Hell they could’ve even given Carl a kid at that point cause he’d be in his 20s
I’ve spent to long thinking about this
Great recap, so good to remember all the plot points and where characters came in (or left) over the years. Only point I think was wrong was the ‘everyone is infected’ knowledge. This came when Shane reanimated (having not been bit) not when the group meet Dr Jenner. The Dr shown on the MRI had been bit. And thanks for not showing Glenns death again 😭
Jenner whispered that knowledge into Rick's ear before the group left the CDC. Rick chose not tell anyone until forced to when they were on the farm.
@@ThanatosSG9 oh ok 👍 But was still a surprise for viewers, if I remember correctly?
Ty mate. With all the spin offs I wanted a recap without having to watch dodgy season again. So you explained all the important stuff and I remember it again. Ty
This was all that was needed for someone like me who quit in season 7.
Aaron was my favourite character so I’m glad he survived
Anyone that stayed up late every Sunday night watching through commercials and then hanging out watching talking dead after I salute you
Ended up crying my eyes out in the last episode. It’s been going on for literally my entire conscious life so I was very emotional to see it go away. Can’t wait to see the spin offs! They sound interesting and I am very excited to see more of Maggie and Dayrl, who two do the new shows will focus on.
I love how the longer the series goes the more stupider the zombies move and walk because theyre muscles are decaying and becoming more stiff, thats the reason why the survivors struggles alot when they are being grabbd by walkers.
Bro is a legend for a Adam and Eve sponsorship 😂
Never realized the irony that Maggie negotiated killing Negan and in return it cost Glenn his life...
I can't believe I didn't know Carl died lol. Also I never even watched an episode with the tiger but poor tiger :(
17:34 the casual nature of this declaration will never not be funny to me.
Terminus didn't mess with the wrong people, Carol messed with them, saving the rick peoples.
Very strong start imo, then unfortunately during season 2 it begins to slow down quite a bit. Season 3 I felt improved a lot but then fell flat. Season 4 until 6 felt about the same if not weaker in story. Then Season 7 we get Neegan, love the guy, but felt he needed the HBO or Netflix treatment to really go all out. Wish he was more like his graphic novel counterpart. Then Season 9 we lose Rick, who until this point has been portrayed as the main protagonist. Some might argue Darrel has always been, but I truly feel it was Rick. Then the show turns into Neegans redemption arc and here we are. Not a fan of the show unfortunately, but loved how it started. I know from interviews that there was a ton of drama in the background with writers, producers and showrunners. Unfortunate, because this show had so much potential imo. This is all just my take on the series, I know a lot of people liked it, but I just wasn't a fan.
I stopped watching after Rick spared Negan instead of killing him, lost interest after that the story lines were just ridiculous
@Spartan Rick didn’t die just went missing
@Spartan Rick never died 😂 he only went missing
Seeing Eugene going from Bozo to Gigachad was my favorite part of this video
Man how young did Daryl look in season one Rick too .
Thanks; I desperately needed to finish this story but your version is so much more palatable!!! 😂
Had daryll killed Maggie things would be different.
This is a perfect video. I didn't feel like rewatching everything so I just rewatched the new season and was so confused thank you for this
Season 1 is hands down the best one, it has that apocalyptic end of the world feel overall that I really wasn't really able to feel ever again, I have rewatched it at least 10 times. For me it derailed on season 2, just knowing all the great ideas that Darabont had for it, and I really hated the way they wasted characters with so much potential: Shane, Merle, Andrea, and don't make me talk on how they turned the most badass character into Rick's dog. I can't say that I haven't enyojed the other seasons, but it pains me to know that this series could have taken a much better path if they kept Darabont as the showrunner. After all, it was his idea to adapt the comic.
omg ur brain haha.
