Ironically, this could also describe the season 7 finale and the season 8 season premiere. 

Redundant show is redundant.  

Idiot that I am, I'm still holding hope the season finale will be better than what we've experienced so far this season.

Which sets the bar for my expectations really low.

At this point in time I'd be ecstatic if the first shot for next season's premiere is just a title card saying:

'We're sorry, we really fucked things up, we'd like to Bobby Ewing the last 2 seasons and have a do-over. As a token of our appreciation for your patience we will be including at least one scene every episode of Andrew Lincoln running.'

Then the episode opens with Rick hearing the children at the gates of Alexandria.

Hear, hear!

They have one hour to keep my interest.

Seriously, just how long has "all-out war" been unfolding now?  

Yes, but now it's the Real Thing! No more dickin' around, no more Redshirts being mowed down, no more bait-n'-switch, no more Rick saying, "Gee, I tried to kill Negan. Honest, I really really did but... well, I didn't!"

Father Pee will cough, a lot! Eugene will rattle off incomprehensible bullshit! The Ocean people will admonish Aaron further as he lies in the mud! Daryl will glance sideways through his hair and mumble another fucked-up plan, vindictively! Dwight will stare at the ground while chewing his imaginary gum! Greg will try to manipulate Maggie, who will merely give him a Grumpy Cat look. Oh, I just can't wait!

Morgan finds the wormhole to CA...all out war continues...Marvel could sue for "Infinity War" copyright infringement...

At this point I would actually find it believable if Thanos, via the stones in the glove, pops out of a portal and into TWD land. I would certainly find that more believable than the BS that's been happening for Seasons now.

OK, I just turned the TV on. Gotta schluck through last week's episode again before I expose myself to any new stupidity. If, in fact, repeating the same eleven conversations over and over and over again every week can actually be called new. Anyway, when I first clicked it on, it was not tuned to the AMC channel. And I actually found myself thinking: "You know, you don't have to change the channel yet. You could watch this 'Big Bang Theory' episode instead." And, just to put that temptation into perspective for you, I absolutely fucking hate "Big Bang Theory."

Ok, I've decided I'm going to torture myself tonight.... I'm going to actually watch this finale and then the FTWD season premiere.

I've never watched TBBT, but having 'researched' it, I know I would hate it - at least after the first few seasons.

OK, I've started my drinking. Now maybe if the writers would slow down a little bit on theirs, our quality standards could meet somewhere in the middle. So does "Fear" have a live thread too? I might actually sit through it if there is.

I'll see ya there.

I figure if nothing else, that show is as snarkable as its parent.

I am not good enough with english to compose a pre-episode Negan speech...  It is supposed to be easy "cause you just use words like "Shit", "Dick", "Prick", "Suck", "Balls", "Tities", "Ass", "Asshole", "Hard", "Come", "Nipples", "Fuck", etc..

A few tips: Remove "titties" and "nipples" from your monologue. Any words for female parts are verboten, as is "balls". Substitute "Nuts", "nutsack" and "piss" please. "Fuck"? Fuggedaboutit. Oh, same with "come." You may talk about "rubbing one out" but not "coming." I hope I didn't miss anything.

It would take more than alcohol to churn out the brain-dead crap we get. I'm thinking non-prescription drugs are at work here.

I know I'm going to hate myself later, but I actually sprung for a bag of Lay's potato chips for this shitfest. Lay's are too good for it! I stopped drinking 2 hours ago. Another big mistake, I'm sure.

The communities join forces in a last stand against the Saviors as all-out war unfolds.

I have been focusing on that "last stand" part for months. Like, it runs in boldface through my head whilst Negan lies lifeless AND SILENT as Daryl and Carol perform an intricate pop & lock routine over his corpse.

I thank you all in advance for being one of the few rays of light in a season and a half of dreck.

I too turned on AMC, but deliberately. I find that i re-watch it helps desensitize me to what's coming. I have been into the vodka bottle a few times, and have safely secured another if I kick this one. I won't really be in the live chat, I may chime in but I am live watching on Facebook messenger with my daughter in Michigan (27 and watching from S1E1) and is more disillusioned than the rest of us.

Negan is not gonna die. At least not quickly. At best, maybe he'll get penicillin-resistant syphilis from Dumpster Diva and walk around giving deathbed monolgues for another season. At worst, he'll also write letters to everyone like Coral did, so we can hear his voiceovers about everybody's dicks and balls for another twenty-five years after he's dead.

I am watching tonight, but I'm guaranteeing everyone this;  if Negan is still alive by time the final credits roll, I'm not watching another single minute of this Show until he's gone.

What's the O/U on when we hear our first penis reference or other potty humor remark?  I'm going with 75 seconds.

Just made sure AMC was working ok, so could watch, and was given the treat of the Negan/Simon fight.  O.M.G. (LOL!) was that the single most emotionless death match ever!  They could have done close-ups of the worker-slaves and it would have been a continual repeat of this type of reaction shot...

Or - Just as Rick is about to really, truly, no kidding, kill Negan, that helicopter shows up and carries Negan away.

That would at least be some movement of the story in some direction.

I'm completely hopped up on the good cold meds settling in to the tail end of the last episode and it doesn't make any more sense this way.  So tonight's viewing may be .... interesting.
