I do try. I certainly hope I do far better in my commentary than Talking Dead! My relationship with TWD is a weird one and it's complicated--a thing about which I keep telling myself I'll write at some point. The other subjects about which I write are more interesting to me. It's just that they don't seem particularly interesting to many others.<br /><br />I should add this: As long as you know there are no sea monsters, dragons, unicorns, fairies, and that the sun doesn't chase the moon across the sky, it's o.k. to believe in all of them. ;)cinemarchaeologisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13507603255666191405noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-585323794423400780.post-30057456893973743312014-10-13T18:29:25.006-04:002014-10-13T18:29:25.006-04:00It comforts me to know that there are people out t...It comforts me to know that there are people out there capable of critical thought and analysis, if there wasn't, there would be no Atheists. Also, people would still believe in sea monsters, dragons, unicorns, fairies, the earth was flat, and the sun and moon chased each other across the sky. Being critical, objective, and logical doesn't make you Autistic, it makes you intelligent, knowledgeable, and thoughtful. Thank you for writing The Dig, for me it's a far more insightful analysis of the series than I could ever hope to find on The Talking Dead (I only tried watching the first episode) or IMDB forums.

Also, being critical of something you enjoy doesn't make you Autistic. For a great example of a group of people who devote great amounts of their personal time and energy into a form of entrainment that they are often critical of that experience, you have to look no further than sports fans; and they outnumber TWD fans by billions. Sports fans can memorize an insane number of statistics, facts, plays, dates, and names of their favorite team and no one thinks that's odd. Plus, following most sports requires far more person time and effort. Even following one team in one sport, and watching every game they play requires a larger personal investment of time than watching any one single TV series. Even American football which has an incredibly short season still has 3 hour games. This doesn't even include watching things like Sportsnet for overviews and highlights of games, reading statistics from websites or newspapers, and the list goes on. This isn't even mentioning how critical sports fans are of their favorite teams and sports. Only one team can win each game, and more importantly, only one team can win it all. Statistically speaking, this means your team won't win its championship more often than not. And sports fans are notorious for being critical of their teams. I doubt there is a critical TWD fan that has ever overturned and burned an automobile just because they watched a bad episode!

You've put more work into this blog than all of the writers of this show combined. And none of your analysis has been particularly insightful or creative. Just the same old schtick of nitpicking and complaining, both of which do not take a high level of critical thinking, especially when it comes to a subject as shallow as this.<br /><br />Maybe you should get a hobby to ease your troubled mind. May I suggest finger painting? Or do you honestly have nothing better to do than be an internet know-it-all on one of the absolutely lamest subjects out there? Honestly, look into that autism test.<br /><br />Stare at the flowers jriddle...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-585323794423400780.post-49910423188325795002014-09-15T20:43:35.857-04:002014-09-15T20:43:35.857-04:00In that respect, it is, for me, much like writing ...In that respect, it is, for me, much like writing pretty much anything else about TWD.
