So I just caught up. Wow. I think season 4 is it's strongest since 2. I'm excited for five to start and just saw that AMC has greenlit a season six. While I still like the show, I'm afraid they could eventually overstay their welcome. The show, like any decent zombie related show is about the human drama and it's examination of humans in general. My fear stems from the fact that the plot remains the same for each season. [They escape a situation, they find shelter, hardened and re-shaped by the last situation. They soften a little and find some semblance of happiness and normal life. Another group of people destroy this haven. Insert lots of zombies. They feel betrayed and their belief that people can be good is questioned. Repeat.]
Should they zero in on an endgame for their main series on the heels of spin-off series in the future or have they already jumped the shark? Thoughts?
