I remember staying up till 4am just to watch opening episode of S7 in TWD. It was definitely an experience and after that, the show went downhill. Oh, it went downhill real bad. So bad, that I actually skipped some episodes while watching S8. The show what I loved, turned from amazing to your average bullshit show with shitty writing, poor action and being all-predictable mess. Best episode in S8 was the last episode, because it finally ended the dragging saviours storyline.
And then S9 came, I didn't have high hopes but the first half of the season ended up being pretty damn good. Yes, the problems were still there but if there was one word what I would describe it, it would exciting.
From that on, the show have got some great moments, but the quality of the show has still felt clumsy and awkward time to time. But it was definitely wayy more than watchable and after S8, almost anything would have felt better. The show never reached the magic it used to have, but I never expected it.
Until now. And it isn't exactly the same magic. But the quality, it is there.
Great writing, no, amazing writing. Good action, oh yes. Actually feeling thrilling and terrifying, yes! These two episodes, especially the second one were just so on point, I honestly cannot find a single flaw.
Or well. Negan's decission to leave Maggie and then them being like "naw we cool", you can argue about that but that's just fine for me.
Anyway, I haven't felt like this while watching this show since S6 premiere. Will this last throughout the whole season? Eh, I don't set my hopes up. But I am so glad we are getting ending to this show and so far, it is looking great.
