Six new episodes to close the 10th season, running from now until the beginning of April.
I am still watching, but the days when I looked forward to every new episode are LONG gone...

Thanks for letting us know, I had no idea.

I'll get to it eventually. I basically quit after the 7th season because I thought it'd go on forever, but with only four more seasons I may as well finish.
Wait...22 episodes for season 10?

Yi Yi Yi... I guess I'll watch this season to see how it ends. Have basically watched all of the seasons.
Not sure if I'll tune in for "FTWD" tho. Really hated it when two lead characters were killed off. The show started to suck.

I suppose I'll watch it, but like you It's not something I have high hopes of. That and FtWD started going downhill when the characters started acting all wishy washy about what needed to be done to survive. I especially hated it when the teens started taking over the show and dictating what they should do.

Eight episodes in the second half of 2019, then seven episodes in the first half of 2020, one in October 2020 (delayed because of Covid), and now six more. A bit ridiculous to consider them all part of the same season, if you ask me - especially since ep 16, the one that aired in October, pretty much concluded the story arc from the last two or three seasons.

I meant to continue watching it later, but now I am not sure I ever will - I've only heard bad things about it.

I gave up with Negan (sp?). I read his arc on the fan wikis, and it was some Über-Governor. So no thanks. They never developed the show and made it about the re-start after the apocalypse, but changed between two main tropes: a totally degraded enemy (Cannibals, Wolves, Whisperer) or the functional psycho ones (Governor, Police/Hospital staff, Negan etc. pp.). And here and there they kill a main character for the shock value.

I meant to continue watching it later, but now I am not sure I ever will - I've only heard bad things about it. They promised us to depict how it was possible that this lame ass Zombies could take over. And: "Five days later" or what was it; they lied to us as the show runner of Lost did. Hence the show was dead to me. Yeah: machines guns have no effect on them as shown when they overun the medical facility their useless son was kept in. I'm a former paratrooper who was trained especially as machine gun operator - a key doctrine of the German Fallschirmjägertruppe - and machine guns have an effect on human tissue. Or parts like: an army troop has everything under control for days, goes into a house, then, you only hear screams and all are dead or fleeing in panic...sure. Highly trained and experienced soldier who know the drill vs. these lame ass zombies. Of course they don't show us what actually happens in the building. But still in season six(?) - the Negan one - they go for super markets raids in t-shirts, no riots suits albeit they had access to them since the prison arc. And again: it is their stupidity that drives the plot, not the dangerous nature of these Zombies. You can use noise and light to manipulate them with ease. In season two with the governor they used traps of this kind...only to have zombies for their arena games, instead if clearing the area of them. What a setting of priorities?! Ok, it is only a TV show, but a really stupid one, and even as zombie fan you are done with this constant stupidity at a certain point.

Don't forget the third trope, the accidental enemy: the milquetoast, denial-ridden softie who hasn't yet realized they're in a kill or be killed apocalypse and needs hard boy Rick to step up and show them what's what (Hershel, Alexandria).

I don’t understand why they decided to lengthen season 10. It’s like they’re trying to prolong the show for as long as possible, even though they’ve already said that 11 is the last. The comics are over anyway. There’s no point in dragging out the show. How many people even still watch it?
