I want them to reach down into their big boy pants, find a set of balls and kill of Rick, Carl, and Daryl. Then we'd see some brave storytelling (and fan hysteria).

[(Anonymous)]

Daryl will never die. A pity because while I like him, I'd love to see the fandom fallout from it. The wank would never die.

I don't understand why sometimes, killing off characters just to kill them off is considered "brave storytelling" and other times, killing them just to kill them off is considered "shitty storytelling." (And I'm talking in cases where it's reasonable that someone might die because they're always in life-threatening danger. Killing someone off in a romcom is probably gonna be shitty)

Because they are trying to sell TWD as this !anyone can die! unpredictable show, but the only people that do get killed off are the 2nd tier characters, and it is the safest and most predictable show out there. There are two things they need to do, one kill off the tier 1 characters, if they are serious about it being unpredictable and as edgy as they claim, and also start telling an episode's worth of drama in one episode instead of one episode's worth of story over half a dozen episodes.

[(Anonymous)]

The reason I ask is because I've seen people say that killing characters off to show that something is unpredictable in the "anyone can die" kind of way is a bad and lazy reason to kill characters, making it shitty writing. A character should die for a solid narrative reason and not just to prove that "anyone can die."

[(Anonymous)]

She wasn't killed off just to kill off a character, she was killed off for the other characters to grow and change. Daryl and Maggie specifically.

[(Anonymous)]

Which other people would say is a bad reason to kill a character, too!

[(Anonymous)]

Are you implying that killing off Beth DIDN'T cause fan hysteria?

[(Anonymous)]

Only because they started the fans shipping her with Darrie Dearest. Kill off Daryl, deal with the source of the fan-hysteria and not the symptoms.

[(Anonymous)]

Sounds like crazed Caryl shippers.
