Yea, the worst part. Since this is only my second (sort of) long wait. I just started watching last year. Watched the first three seasons in about three weeks. Then, bought the 4th on Vudu and actually held off watching it for about three weeks, saving it for a trip I knew I was going to be taking to the UK, so finished season four the last weekend in May, so my summer wait was a couple months less than others.
This wait is going to be brutal. It's also interesting that the producer's comments read on Talking Dead (if I'm remembering right) was that in Season six, the threat won't be as much from people, as it's been in recent seasons.
