Why did this shit fall off so hard? Seasons 1-5 are absolute peak. Never forget what AMC took from us by being money hungry cocksuckers and forcing bottle episodes and fat bitches making out. Loses all charm without Rick shaking and pissing himself over morality and shit. Getting a thread going for everyone else in an abusive relationship with this show.

The Walking Dead:
Begins soon after the outbreak (around 2010) and follows the long, evolving survival story over more than a decade. Has moments of peak but seasons 6-11 are an utter slogfest falling into repetitive arcs. Rapes your time and doesn't even give you a definitive end.
Tales of the Walking Dead:
Anthology series. Cool concept, but pretty mid. Would be great to get another season that explores backstories of characters we know or that fabled episode about the soldier in the tank we never got to see after Darabont got canned.
Fear the Walking Dead:
Set at the very beginning of the outbreak—the “day zero” perspective—on the West Coast, often preceding/overlapping the start of the main series.
First three seasons are great until it becomes turns into the Morgan show and becomes unwatchable. We get to see some cool parts of the lore like Operation Cobalt and the fall of the military. (Bonus points for the shittiest poster I've ever seen).

World Beyond:
Avoid at all costs. Set in Nebraska ten years after the zombie apocalypse, features four teenage protagonists and focuses on "the first generation to come-of-age in the apocalypse. They tried to do a Gen Z type thing here and it's godawful. It does give us the first bit of lore about the CRM and the experiements they conduct on survivors with the A's and the B's, but I'd just watch a recap online for that stuff.

The Ones Who Live:
Probably the only spinoff worth watching just to see what happens to Rick. This series replaces the scrapped trilogy of films that were planned to focus on Rick's status after his departure in 9x05 of TWD. Starts strong but gets corny and unbelievable with one of the worst season finales I've ever seen aside from the very end. The normies seem to love it so idk. Still worth watching for Andrew Lincoln, the lore we get about the CRM and the resolution of his character arc.

TWD: Daryl Dixon:
Set soon after the end of TWD since the finale was pretty much a trailer for this fucking show. Daryl washes ashore in France (the origin of the zombie virus as we see in the post-credits of World Beyond) and struggles to piece together how he got there and why. Adds new walker variants and overall atmosphere to the universe that honestly makes it feel like a completely different show unrelated to TWD. I found it pretty boring and wouldn't recommend. Second season has Carol for whatever that's worth.

Dead City:
Takes place about 5-6 years after season 11 of TWD. Follows Maggie and Negan traveling into a post-apocalyptic Manhattan cut off from the mainland in search of Maggie's kidnapped son. I haven't seen this one yet and have been debating if it's even worth the time. This pairing is so played out by now and Maggie either needs to just kill Negan or shut the fuck up at this point.
