Season 9 of the show got me hooked again

I just got done binging the 9th season of the show on Netflix and now I need to catch up on season 10. I was doing a complete rewatch and kind of stalled out on seasons 7 and 8. Some of the filler episodes bored me and I was kind of losing interest.

But season 9 renewed my interest. Loved how they handled writing Rick off and while I was a bit worried how the show would be without him, I think they’ve done a good job. I’m enjoying the whisperers as well. I love the concept of people dressing as walkers to blend in and it adds some horror to the show. Alpha and Beta are creepy too. Nothing against Negan, but it’s refreshing to see some legitimately scary villains again.

The only thing I didn’t like was they killed that coward Gregory. They should’ve locked him in a cell like Negan. Made him suffer longer. Make him see how much better Hilltop is without him. He acted like the community needed him, but it would’ve been a bigger punishment to see how little he mattered. But I get why Maggie did it.

So yeah I’m excited to watch season 10 now. I didn’t hate seasons 7 and 8, but I felt they drug the Negan storyline out too long, had too much filler, and made some questionable decisions. It just felt like season 9 got things back on track and made things interesting again. I know there’s a new show runner and sometimes you need that change to mix things up.
