Funny to hear the hate for Morgan and Carol.

I much prefer watching them than watching another episode of Rick fighting the occasional walker and a group of bad guys, only to find a safe place, only to realize it isn't really a safe place because there are other bad guys, only to fight a walker, fight a bad guy, find a safe place,

rinse and repeat. It isn't much different than seasons 2+.

After Negrin my prediction for next season will include:

The group finding a safe place
Only to realize there are even badder bad guys
To then fight the bad guys
Then to find another safe place

I think the ratings will continue amongst die hard fans, but the casual fans will leak away. They need to bring something new to the story, like a move across the country or continent or a cure, or that the walkers finally start to die off because of lack of food.
