Why Joe Rogan Gave Up on The Walking Dead

[@tizodd6]

I really liked Glenn's death. I took many breaks from that show and many did not see that death coming. Just because you love a character don't mean they have to die honorably. Now the first couple seasons were the best and I'm not as down with it but Glenn's death was the shit.

So, slow to react and get up, he might've even blacked out for a sec. Then the walker's already on him, and this was only like 2 months into the outbreak so walkers were way less deteriorated/removed from their human strength. Then lastly, your skin gets thinner as you age and ofc this makes it more fragile, so to summarise- one hungry dead fella V an old stiff sleepy fella with a thin flesh barrier. Who're you betting on?

Collagen fibers is what make bones strong, I'm pretty sure zombies would be lacking that collagen. Fossilization happens when an animal is buried by sediment shortly after it dies. Its bones are protected from rotting by layers of sediment. As its body decomposes all the fleshy parts wear away and only the hard parts, like bones, are left behind. Not only that but even after fossilization they are pretty fragile.

It wasn't Glenn's death that derailed the show, it was what led up to it. Season 6 went completely awry with the Glenn dumpster fake out and then having Ricks group turn into the Expendables and kill tons of saviors before Negan even showed up. The saviors were devalued by that point and so was Glenn's character. That ridiculous cliffhanger at the end of season 6 cheapened the whole scene even more. It was as if the writers knew what fans would be expecting so they purposely manipulated Glenn's death as a way to fuck with the audience which is something a tv show/movie should never do.

Glenn's dumpster fake out was when the show majorly fizzled for me. It was just so poorly executed and demonstrated such a lack of respect for the audience. Granted, it's debatable the show was going downhill since all the way back to Season 2 or 3 due to questionable writing being there pretty early. I would often still watch it just to laugh at the writing: "Why are dingleberry's brown?" But after season 6 I couldn't stomach much more.

[@daredevilseyes7493]

Everyone always says, "I stopped watching after Glenn died!!!" Glenn's death in the comics was WAY too iconic to not use in a live action setting. His death in the comics was so brutal it had to be done.

[@YouDontKnowSh1t]

It had to set up the seriousness they were dealing with Negan. I don’t even think it’s Glenn’s death that got them. I think the scene was so intense and perfectly particular, and broke down the main characters so much that some people either couldn’t take it anymore (too dark and traumatic) or just couldn’t adjust/be understanding of their favorite characters not being the “I’m going to fight my way out of this” type. But it had to be done. Carl’s death on the other hand, made this whole thing useless. He was the future. Show never needed to focus on him, he just needed to be alive. He was ink and paper to which these characters stories were written with and then it just became a bunch of whatever. Rick barely mourned him. That was his child son. Nobody meant anything to him in comparison to his fucking son and he just moved on. So uncharacteristic - was not the Rick I believed in. Show could’ve picked up again years later, even with a different actor, but killing Carl caused this show to be dead dead dead dead dead. Gone and useless. Not even iconic anymore.

[@blippieredd3396]

The breaking point for me was when Rick left the show. There’s just no skirting around the fact that he was the show’s central protagonist for 8 years and is the center of the narrative. The DVD covers for seasons 1-6 are literally just Rick standing in different locations. There have been plenty of other great characters, but the show has never been a true ensemble cast in the sense that there were multiple main protagonists. Rick was the Walter White of the Walking Dead. Sure, you can continue the story with a couple remaining original characters, and I think they did a fairly good job with what they had left, but it will never be the same.

I think killing off Carl before that was worse… Rick’s whole thing was raising up his son in the dangerous new world, and trying to bring back the peace of the old world… so without Carl, he’d lost his purpose. sure, he had plenty of other people to care about, too, but Carl was the only one from the old world. I wish they’d kept Carl around, and ended the show after seven seasons or so, with Rick dying heroically to save the day, and the final show of the series being Carl passing on Rick’s sheriff’s hat on to Judith 👍

Eventually, all zombie plots devolve into fighting humans with the zombies just acting as a reason for society to stay destroyed. The genre rarely diverges from this plot direction.

[@jirkazalabak1514]

It´s sort of realistic though. When it comes down to it, human intelligence and adaptability will always be more dangerous than mindless flesh-eating sacks of meat. At the start, people died a lot, because they simply weren´t ready for anything like this. Not to mention that many probably died of hunger and thirst, because it´s not possible to feed millions by scavenging.

[@stevenscott2136]

George Romero created the zombie story for precisely that reason -- to provide a situation in which humans had no restraints, and we could watch them be heroes or jerks according to their true selves. Westerns do the same thing by putting people on the frontier, beyond the reach of mainstream society.

The show’s creator Frank Darabont (director of Shawshank Redemption, top film on IMDb) had the show Walking Dead taken from him after a disagreement with studio heads. The reason why that show was as good as it was before the end of season 3 was because he was at the helm, once they kicked him out (and he sued or is sueing the studio for over $100 million dollars for it) the show turned into a mess because the writers making it didn’t have his vision and they pretty much lost all clear creative direction the show once had. It’s much like what happened when Disney started making Star Wars without George Lucas

Nailed it. The shower runner they replaced him with was either amateur or just man with a total trash tier imagination. It felt like middle school kids took over the writers room or something. It felt like a shitty soap opera but more annoying because soap operas are going for what it is that I call shitty, and this was supposed to be a horror survival show. The inconsistency the characters showed, bogging down of plot to drag out episodes, they got rid of him and brought on AngeLa Kang later and suddenly the show goes from trash tier to primo once against. She salvaged it and made it better all while having to incorporate Gimbles nonsense without retconning. Gimble. That’s his name. No talent hack they got for a quarter of the price.

C_Force the source material is godly.... the show isn’t and could never be because the source material has an endgame, while shows aren’t guaranteed to become popular and stick around. Shows usually bump into these problems regardless of source material because they have to return season after season, and keep coming up with a reason to keep the viewers watching. Thus, by season 4 (3 with some), a lot of shows are stretching the writing, and start doing shit like flashback episodes, dream sequence episodes, musical episodes etc. If they followed the comic book, this could’ve ended years ago

[@jmc790]

nuke97 nah it’s fine that they stuck to the source material with his death. Glenn is maybe one of the most innocent ones.

@@abouesxobar I get that but the best episodes are the ones that make the audience fear the zombies. The fear of the zombies comes when the group is exposed and don't have anywhere safe to go. Humans normally become the treat when the group has established a safe place to operate from. These places eventually start to feel stale so it was good when people like the Governor forced the group out of the prison or when the cannibals forced them out of the sanctuary and exposed them to the treat of the zombies again. The humans have always been seen as a threat but ever since Alexandria was cleared of the zombie invasion in season 6, they have basically been presented as the only threat in the show. Alexandria, hill top, the saviors and the kingdom were all introduced by early season 7 and as far as I'm aware the show still focuses on these groups. This just makes the show feel stale compared to the usual destruction and evacuation of the group's base by the end of each season. (Of course, this is all just my opinion)

I know right! It got so good and then peaked on this episode, and then afterwards it became so bad. I liked the beginning of season 9 until Rick left. Then it’s been on and off for me

Literally Glenn was the falling point. Literally EVERYTHING fell apart after him. I loved Abraham too like I can’t get over it all.

[@himanaggar]

imagine if they kept glenn, carl and rick in the show and instead they made the walkers evolve

[@GnosticMaximus]

Abraham definitly deserved more screen time, Glenn wasnt really doing much tho tbh and the Premiere of Season 7 in which both of them die is my favorite episode still to date. No Episode in television was able to portray this kind of feelings, absolute hopelessness, it was so fucking good.

I’m sure he’s killed many zombies escaping, clearing a path, etc, and never got to retrieve the arrows from their skulls... but he still has as many as the day he was introduced lol

Try it in real life. Kill something with an arrow or a crossbow bolt and see how useful that bolt still is.

[@hollowbastion5614]

Stop it stupid.

[@DLFLux]

@@suckieduckie the walkers are decaying to the point where we’ve seen their heads get crushed into mush from someone stomping on them, he’d get a fair amount of uses out of them. I know the entire thing is stupid and not realistic at all but just pointing out that there are small half explanations that do enough, for me at least, to not see it as a glaring issue. Little things like retrieving the arrows, seeing how weak the walkers skulls are, Daryl using more than one crossbow with other people using them too making it look like the bolts can be accessible, though not being at all realistic do enough for me to suspend disbelief.

[@stevenscott2136]

He replaces them. There are a LOT of crossbow bolts in America, and Darryl is the only person left who uses them.

[@sandwurm928]

i quit the show when they killed glenn too, years later i thought i might have been wrong and i came back to the show and re watched all of it and i was like "yeah quitting when glenn died was the right call"

Can you imagine killing someone on a show called “The Walking Dead” and to do it in the exact same manner as done in the comic? No respect...

@Vicodyn except that wasn't shit. It was one of the best episodes. Everything after it was shit.

[@anonimogt495]

This proves that people are not prepared for shows like TWD, bc being mad for the fact that characters are going to die? I mean, hello? It's a fucking series about zombies, how people can't believe that no one would die? Just the mere fact that someone stop seeing a series that is about death, bc a character dies, is almost same stupid like getting into a series like Friends, and stop seeing it bc it is full of jokes and comedy....

[@AverageAtBestHDTB]

@@anonimogt495 TWD is a far cry from what it was when it first came out at this point.

You can't argue whether that's right or wrong lol Not prepared for shows like TWD lmfao what are you talking about

[@TNTITAN]

The comic made it a cliff hanger on who died and then 6 months later showed it was Glen?

[@DreamStepper]

It was in the comics makes for a crappy defense when the show is clearly willing to take liberties.

[@FreeggNinja3618]

Glenn was my favorite character, when they killed him I was pretty much done...plus the show became less about running from zombies and more about these squads fighting each other

[@odinswar596]

The show died when they killed off all the main characters and replaced them with no name lack luster bums that can't act.

[@janmetdekorteachternaam3673]

The show died when they introduced a leader people would supposedly voluntarily follow, who has a pet tiger (seriously?) and some obvious mental health problems in calling himself king and whatnot. I don't care it was in the comics, it killed a good show with great potential instantly.

Glenn dies in the comics. And its kind of the game when you're on a tv show. There is no stakes if the main characters are safe. As an actor for a show, you need to be ahead of what's next for your career. Jon Berthal did it. Also, Steven Yung (Glenn) is still acting today. I don't think he's very unhappy.
