It’s that time of year again! The Walking Dead is back on our
screens, and again I am not watching live, forced to avoid spoilers
studiously. In my first post, I said
that I hate spoilers about narrative programs and this one is super important. The Walking Dead is a easily spoilable
show. What events are more important in
a tv show than when a beloved character meets his/her tragic end. And in this show, that is constantly
happening.
As of
this moment, I have yet to watch Sunday’s episode. I haven’t had the time to sit down and watch
it, but I have been scrolling through Twitter once again. On Sunday nights, Twitter becomes a minefield
for me. And I do admit that I could
probably create a less spoiler-y zone.
Each week, one person who I follow
tweets constantly about the night’s show.
When I check Twitter, I often end up scrolling without looking in depth
at much because I’m trying to avoid reading something I don’t want to. Y’know what makes spoiler posts easy to
avoid: hashtags. It’s funny to me
because they are meant to help you to find posts. If you are scrolling down a page quickly a
hashtag is easy to spot and avoid, especially now that there is always a
hashtag emoji image for each week’s new episode.
