Fall TV Finales
Posted by Leah Cannon
While we students wrap up the fall semester, several network shows are wrapping up the fall season. A lot of viewers took to social media to share their thoughts on their favorite programs’ fall finales.
This is probably a good time to mention that there may be spoilers in this post, so if you are waiting until to catch up you may want to come back to this post later!
The Resident premiered earlier this year on FOX, and most viewers posting on social media felt positively about the fall finale:
But some viewers will have a difficult time waiting for the new season!
Just watched the mid season finale of #TheResident on demand, and I was on the edge of my seat for every second of the episode. It’s the big things, the story lines for example, and the small things, like the music and wardrobe. A+ on the Indian wedding attire. Catch all eps VOD.

This is Us
NBC’s family drama This Is Us promised a great mid-season finale and according to viewer tweets, they delivered!

The Walking Dead
AMC’s The Walking Dead had a much-anticipated mid-season finale (despite losing 35% of all viewers since last season), and social media sentiment was overwhelmingly negative!
Just caught up with the midseason finale of #WalkingDead. 🙁 One of the most interesting characters gets taken out instead of the swath of boring ones.

I’m a #TWD fan but really disappointed in the way that the writers are not utilizing great actors and giving them meaningful storylines. Perhaps focus on what you have, less on Henry, and less new characters. #WalkingDead #TWDMidSeasonFinale https://t.co/KmzQ0OdROI
