The comment above about being like Lost and just watching because I've invested so much time into it is bang on. At least with Lost, it seemed like there would be some pay off at the end.

At this point I think this is my problem as well. Before I went to post I thought about the characters I would be most upset if they killed off. I really can't think of one.
I've said before and still believe that the one element the writers are good at is character development. Yet, with that they have transformed the lot of them into genuinely unlikable people. Or at least people I just don't care enough about at this point.
The last character to go that really shocked and upset me was Glenn. Despite everything they went through there was just something wholesome about the character, and the way he went out was unnecessarily brutal and shocking.
Darryl and Maggie, two characters I had always rooted for, have been transformed into what they hated. Never really got the appeal of Michonne. Carol is frustrating, and so is Morgan (although probably one of the best characters on the show). Most of the peripheral characters like Enid, Father Gabriel, Tara, Rosita, etc. don't really matter. And the new characters like Ezekiel and Jesus aren't developed enough for me to care.
Aaron is ok. I like Aaron.
