Walking Dead chat *CONTAINS SPOILERS*

[Andy]

@Lindzi Had to tell someone!! Guess what!! There's some 'big' deaths coming in season 8 according to show runners!

http://comicbook.com/thewalkingdead/2017/09/21/the-walking-dead-deaths-war-spoilers-gimple-/

I'm thinking big deaths ... actor who plays Carl wants to spend more time on studies ... Is our wish finally coming true?!?

This could be the moment we've been waiting for ...

[Andy]

@Thom77 @Lindzi I've not met anyone else who watches Britannia, and yet they keep making new seasons ... it's like Sky is making a whole TV show dedicated just to me! ☺️

[Lindzi]

@Thom77  @Andy 

Episode 1 watched. Lots of zombies, stormtroopers, new people from Maggie's previous place and lots of me confused as I can't remember what happened at the end of last season. 

Negan front and centre which is how I like it and he has had a nice haircut. 

No Talking Dead though!!! I liked that as well 😡

[Thom77]

@Lindzi

Glad to hear that at least one of us is now up and running with final season TWD!!!!!!  You should have rewatched the last episode from the previous season as a reminder about where things stood like I do (pre-special episodes).....by the time I get the chance to see the final season I probably won't remember what TWD is🤣  Rick who??

Can't believe Disney+ doesn't have Talking Dead to show, they have just about everything else!!!!!  Maybe time to start a Twitter campaign?????

Does Disney+ not have a nice customer forum that could maybe assist with your weekly TWD chit-chat debriefing???????

[Lindzi]

@Thom77 

Someone tweeted them about talking dead, they just got a stock answer along the lines of ... we have no news about this show, but fill in this suggestion questionnaire...type rubbish 

I might watch the last ep of last series as you advised...no idea where we are or what we're doing! 

Wonder where the Rick movies will end up

[Thom77]

@Lindzi 

Good idea to watch that last episode from last season, just to square away all those storylines from last season, might also be a good idea to watch all those special episodes again.....just in case in amongst all those hours of Daryl and Carol there was some pertinent story news!!!!!!!

I think we can safely assume all future new TWD World stuff will be on Disney+.

[Lindzi]

@Thom77  @Andy 

Ok so Disney+ is a waste of money and I'm going to cancel it. Soooo TWD is 22 episodes long but probably with a break somewhere in the middle...on amazon the whole series is £18.99 so do you reckon that will be all 22 eps, not just up to the mid season break? 

Baddies this year are very violent!

[Thom77]

@Lindzi 

I take it with Disney+ all you are watching is TWD?????????

I think you will get 8 episodes of TWD up until October time-ish.....you'll then get 8 more episodes next spring and the final 8 episodes will be this time next year......it's going to be well spread out!!!!!

So that's an interesting question about Amazon Prime when they give a season price and it's something that may be split in to two or even three blocks....is that £18.99 per 8 episode block or do you pay £18.99 well in advance for all 24episodes???????(there's actually 24 eps)  I highly suspect that is £18.99 for this first group of 8 episodes and you'll then pay another £18.99 for the 8 episodes next spring and so on.  I guess box set prices on Prime for stuff like TWD is very costly????  I stand to be corrected as I'm not really sure how this Amazon box set price thing works for stuff like TWD. 

How did it work when you previously paid for that season of FTWD????  Did you not buy that when only the first half of the episodes were available???

[Lindzi]

@Thom77 

I think that with fear I got the whole lot and after the break the episode was just there for me to watch. On prime it says season 11 £18.99 which is way cheaper than having disney for that amount of time. I am not just not using Disney so I'd rather just pay for TWD especially if it is truly the whole season. 

I may just go for it and hope for the best 🙂

[Thom77]

@Lindzi 

If that's how it worked with FTWD.....the second half of episodes just appearing for you to watch because the first payment covered the lot then it may well be worth giving this £18.99 thing a go....if you get all 24 eps in due course for the £18.99 then that seems like a good deal?????

Can you actually contact Amazon in any way to ask such a question.....will my £18.99 payment now for season 11 cover all 24 episodes?????

[Lindzi]

@Thom77 

Amazon says this:-

A Season Pass gives you the option to buy the entire season of a current and soon to be airing TV shows up front. Any episodes of the show that have already been broadcast are immediately available to watch from Your Video Library. As new episodes air, they will automatically be made available in Your Video Library, usually within 24 hours of broadcast.

I will do more research but I'm really thinking that you buy the whole lot

[Lindzi]

@Thom77 

I've posted on amazon forum, I will let you know 🙂

[Thom77]

@Lindzi 

It does seem like you'll get all 24 future episodes for that £18.99 price and that does seem like a good deal....you'll just have a long time to wait until the deal pays out fully!!!!

[gavs82008]

@Thom77 @Lindzi 

Took a screenshot for you but yeah £18.99 is for the entire season.

 

[Lindzi]

@gavs82008  thank you. I think it's for the full 24 episodes, so I'm going for it. Nothing on Disney is remotely interesting to me so it is way cheaper just to buy the season on Amazon. 

[Thom77]

@gavs82008 @Lindzi 

Certainly buy your 24 episodes in HD for a decent £18.99.....rather than £2.49 each!!!!!!!!!!!!

I don't generally pay extra for stuff on Prime Video, but I may have to think about that again!!!!!!

[Lindzi]

@Thom77 

The first few episodes have been good. It's gone quite dark....but I like it!

[Andy]

@Lindzi Don't blame ya! There's only so many times you can watch The Lion King, right? 😂

I did have 6 months of Disney+ but it was a freebie offer, and I'd pretty much watched everything I wanted to in a couple of weeks!! My plan is still to wait until we're onto the last few eps, sub and binge watch the entire season to catch up ready for the season finale timed to perfection just before my sub ends so I can cancel again! So with a bit of luck at least we can talk about the final episode together!! 

Regards the season pass I've never bought them on Amazon, but I have bought some on iTunes and on there it works as you describe, you get the whole season despite the gaps, and each episode popped up the day after it was aired, so I'm sure Amazon will do the same. 

[Thom77]

@Andy @Lindzi 

Hope all is well.

We ready for the return of TWD: World Beyond from Monday.....the one TWD show that we might still all be following at the same time?????  I'm going to have to catch-up this weekend on the last episode of season one as I really can't remember much about what was going on, so need a little memory boost.

I've also just spotted a little piece online mentioning that FTWD season six will become included with Prime Video from Sunday.......so who needs the main show when you can have all that spin-off action???

[Lindzi]

@Thom77   @Andy 

Hopefully we can all all watch this one together 🙂

It's tough watching the TWD without the next day debrief!! It's been pretty good to be fair. 

[Andy]

@Lindzi @Thom77 Thanks for the heads up, I didn't realise WB was back on Monday so I'll look forward to that, I'll remain quietly optimistic for Season 2! As for Fear, one can only try so many times and I think the ship has sailed for me on that particular show! ☺️

[Thom77]

@Andy @Lindzi 

OK, so who is now a couple of episodes in to new season two TWD: World Beyond??

What can you say, it's hardly terrible, it's hardly great......my usual go to summation for most shows I watch.

I am watching this while also binging season six of FTWD, so in my confused mind these spin-off arcs are all merging in to one super story.....if I was also still watching the main show it would be a bloomin nightmare!!!!!

.....and I see that another spin-off has been greenlit.....wringing that cash-cow a little more tightly!!!!
