The Walking Dead: 10 Questions We're Asking After Season 6 (So Far)
5. Will Characters Be Separated/Dropped?
A problem with real-time is that characters can be widely separated and will find it incredibly tough to rejoin each other within a short space of time. Daryl, Sasha, and Abraham all spent Season 6 away from the main group. As did other characters, and that means when the show focuses on one area, characters are dropped. The Walking Dead has a huge cast, but let's face it, we're all tuning in to see Rick, Carol, and Daryl before everyone else, yet their roles were severely limited due to splitting time up between useless fringe characters. You can see the logic of trying to grow more significant characters, but Rosita, Father Gabriel and Eugene are just a few of the survivors who really don't achieve anything. They need to be culled in order to allow the big-hitters and potential stars to shine through. What I'm trying to say is: MORE ABRAHAM, PLEASE.
