I agree with that, IMHO:

Breaking Bad- awesome all the way through
The Wire- just obtained the DVDs and will watch soon
Seinfeld- One episode too many
The Shield- didn't see
LOST- yes and no
Sons of Anarchy- big disappointment the further the show when on
Justified- didn't see

Walking Dead has keep being must watch despite being a long series.

IMO, some shows that were interesting all the way thru were (no order): Breaking Bad, The Wire, Seinfeld, The Shield (some may not agree with me on this one). Some that I really enjoyed until they dragged too long, IMO: LOST, Sons of Anarchy, Justified (even though the show was only 6 seasons, the last few were boring).

Walking Dead has been up and down for me. This season is pretty good though.

I think that was kind of the point for SoA. I always looked at it as the rise and fall of the Roman Empire. They purposefully made it dumb/annoying... to portray how desperate and pathetic the club had become. In the first season or 2, Jax kept reading his dad's manuscript, which described the spiral; we just actually watched it happen.

SOA violence became so unrealistic and numbing, it was like, ok how many will die this episode, 15, meh.
The constant mass killing did not make the news or people thought it safe to walk in Charming?

...last nights Walking Dead was (IMO) not a great episode. I get it that Carol looks at Maggie as the "Mother of the future" and protecting her at all costs, but they kind of beat that into the ground didn't they?

Doesn't look like it's going away either. That and their sadness about killing people. Their inner conflict will not be entertaining.

I will say, that one actress really made me want her to die a horrible death, and they gave it to us in the same episode!

I don't really get the sudden shift in Carol's character. Just a few weeks ago she was battle hardened and killed without remorse, and now she's a basket case. I guess that's fairly "real" or "natural", just didn't care for it.

Mr. Holland's teenage obsession?

Sunday's episode took me back to season 3. It was slow and boring up until the end. Assuming that is the set-up for an intense final 2 episodes.

Just a reminder there are STILL worse things than being bitten by a zombie...

A little disappointed with last night's episode. Thought it would be more action packed. The ending, of course, has us all on the edge of our seats for another week.

I went back and watched the final scene a second time. Definitely a shot fired by Dwight with the gun pointed at Daryl. And obviously it hit. Do they dare kill off Daryl? His role has shrunken dramatically this season.

Carol and Morgan still on the loose. Maybe Dwight's blood.

Dwight's gun fired and was pointed directly at Daryl. Don't know how they could say anything otherwise. If you go back and watch, it's plain as day.

I don't have any doubt that Daryl was shot...I just don't think he's dead.

A lot of people thought Glen died too, but dumpster.

Looked like a shoulder shot.
So, who gets "introduced" to Lucille next week?

Never read the comics or maybe I just missed it during this season, but assuming Lucille is the barbwired bat?

...Rick's crew has become a sloppy mess. Glen & Michonne walking around the woods like their out on a picnic get captured and then Daryl and Rosita let Dwight sneak up on them. Then knowing they're all in danger from the Saviors, so what does Rick and Mogan do? They head out to find Carol the basket case all with his best fighters away from Alexandria! No doubt that their over confidence has cost them big time because next week they get to meet up with Negan and ...

But isn't wrapping a baseball bat in barbed wire kind of unnecessary

I say no as well. Right now, everyone thinks Daryl will die. I think they are going to switch it up and kill Glenn. Daryl would be too obvious right now.

Or Carol. Yes, we know she's missing....but thoughts of her are on the back-burner with what happened with Daryl.

Something also tells me that we won't know what happens until next season. They're notorious for giant cliffhangers.
