    Thought season 1 was bad and inconsistent and then quit either in the middle of season 2 or the end of it.

    It was clear the writing was in conflict with production from the get go.

      Some of season one was great! Then season two took a story that was only one and two half issues in the comic and dragged it out into a whole boring season.

      The worst thing about the show is that they took things from the comic and thought “what if we do this but change it to make it less awesome.”

        Yeah “some” is what got me to try season 2 in the first place. But looking it up I realized I actually finished season 2 and quit at season 3. Its been 12 years, after all.

        But I had never read the comics so even without context and coming to the series ‘fresh’ I felt the series was off. I had lost interest in just about every character and potential story arc after 2 seasons. Except maybe Daryl and Merle who weren’t going to sustain the series.
