The trouble with the show is there is no light and shade any more. In the first few series, they weren’t all badasses, they were vulnerable, made mistakes, there were more children. Over time, the gentler, more interesting central characters either got killed or became unstoppable badasses.
So now it’s just unstoppable badasses facing off against each other with automatic weapons with apparently unlimited ammo. And I don’t care whether any of them live or die. Even the latest character to apparently cop it, who TBH you should actually care about, as he’s one of the original group, didn’t really evoke any response in me.
