I do a mediocre job explaining to my friends that The dead who walk it's good again.
"Well, you see, there was a jump in time, then Rick died, but he does not really die and flew into a helicopter to be part of a movie trilogy." there is another jump and Maggie is gone and everyone is in a relationship, Judith is old and another child is doing Carl stuff from the comics.
"Yeah, it looks terrible."
But that's not it! And without saying anything particularly about tonight's finale that I've seen before, I can safely say yes, I'll count it as another "good" episode of Season 9, which is eight good episodes on Eight, which means that in my book, Angela Kang has a perfect batting average for the season, at least if we only judge on a binary scale.
I can fumble in explaining what makes this season so beautiful in person, but I will try to explain it a little better on the page. In simple terms, Angela Kang has again created credible, relatable and interesting characters with the help of her writing and direction team, setting up meaningful conflicts and progression of characters with a challenging framework. , who demanded, without fault on his part, the cut of two Rick and Maggie, the most important characters in the series, Rick being the undisputed star of the series, and his obvious successor, Carl, was inexplicably murdered last season . All this is … a feat.
Although I did not like every moment of this season (Maggie's brutal absence is still odd), every week I had talks with my colleague. Walking Dead critic, Erik Kain, and our judgment is always the same, ranging from "yes, it was pretty good" to "wow, it was really well, "a statement we have reserved for episodes like Rick's departure or maybe the mid-season finale tonight.
The best part of Season 9 is that you think you know where you are based on the recent trajectory of the series, but always do something to get back to something good and unexpected.
- We see Carol as if she had settled down and abandoned her deadly methods of taking care of a new family … then she burned alive a group of former Saviors who had stolen her.
- We see Daryl living in the woods all by himself, probably becoming more of an isolated hermit … but he has more lines than this season.
- We are seeing an important new group coming and we expect them to be secretly perverse and betray everyone, so we hate them … but they are all pretty cool and we like them.
- We see young older characters like Henry and Judith and we expect them to be lame, but … they both do a great job and have so far been solid characters in their own right.
The list goes on and on, but you see the idea. The big separation after Rick's death sort of played a key role in the season, so some developing intrigues were abruptly interrupted, like Daryl and Maggie's idea of fighting Rick, but even episodes after Rick's start was solid, including tonight's final. which presents what could be the most terrifying enemy that the series has seen so far, and I have the impression that Whisperers will be a very good screen shot when all is said and done.
The writing is better, the shooting is better. I do not know exactly what has changed, but again, I must give Angela Kang a large share of the credit. She has been with the show in one form or another since season 2, but her support has clearly been the breath of fresh air that the show needs.
Yes, it is likely that the number of viewers will continue to decline because it is the current season 9 and TWD has already done a lot of terrible things in the last two years to dissuade viewers. But if it falls now, it's not because the show is bad. It's actually an extremely significant turning point to the point where I'm really excited to watch The dead who walk every week. I do not remember feeling that about this show for many years at this point.
If you are late, I recommend you catch up this season when you can. Yes, it hurts to lose characters like Rick and Maggie, but Kang has turned garbage into gold here, and as someone who has ruthlessly mocked the rather terrible state of TWD for two years, I am very happy to sing it again. praise in season 9.
