Did they ever give her a backstory or decide to gently caress it, she's just odd?

She was a journalist before the apocalypse, and stuck with it post-apocalypse; that's about it.

If the spoilered info about next episode is true, I just want to say, it's been an honor shitposting with all of you :patriot:

Honestly that leaked Rick thing for next episode is exactly what this stupid show deserves. An actual well-written sendoff for the character would just feel wrong at this point.

Remember when zombies could run, climb ladders, use tools and throw heavy objects?

I seriously think it'd been a lot easier to write them as a threat if they never lost those abilities. "Oh the walkers are at the fence again, yawn" vs "The walkers are at the fence again and one of them has a loving axe!"

OMG its cutting down the support beams on the fence that are on the outside for some reason!

I’m gonna laugh when a bunch of characters aren’t there anymore and later this season we get filler flashback episodes that explain how they died/why they were exiled/which hole they fell into and never escaped.

Heath is back, but it is never discussed.

They let Negan out of prison at some point but everyone's cagey about why exactly.

Gabriel lost the sight in his other eye, but that's only because the make-up department put the blind contact in the wrong eye.

Daryl, in disgrace, now lives in that pit full-time, shunning all visitors.

Remember when they had in their hands one of the best and most unique TV crossovers, when it looked like Madison and crew were going to run up against TWD proper as the main villains?

Goddamn such wasted potential

Stuff supposedly leaked again

Rick survives the impaling and also another close call at the bridge. Main cast believes he's dead, while he lives and is helicoptered away to PoochieLand thanks to Jadis

From the same people who leaked him falling off the horse onto convenient rebar for the impaling

More in-depth stuff

Rick makes his way to the bridge, hallucinating along the way (Hershel, Sasha, Shane), and as he gets to the bridge, he remembers Daryl said it will probably collapse under the weight of the herd. It doesn’t, but there is dynamite there. Rick thinks he is hallucinating Team Family as they run to him, and shoots the dynamite to blow the bridge and Michonne et al sees bridge, herd, Rick, go up in flames. Rick is then found downriver by Jadis, and she, Rick and helicopter leave.

There is a big time jump at the end that reveals the beginnings of the Whisperers, and 10 year old Judith in Rick’s hat killing walkers


Time skip confirmed

She could of have been so much more but the writers just didn't care!

warcrimes posted:

Lol, it belongs to one of Carol's group confronting the Saviors led by a that dude we're supposed to know that I've never seen before. She dismounts/dies off screen and they show the horse wandering away, apparently not exactly spooked by gunfire and probably just looking for a way off the show. It then teleports in front of Rick and Darryl.

Turns out they were being very literal about "Rick Grimes' final episodes". Andrew Lincoln will continue to star, playing a man who ripped off Rick's face and wears it

I'm not even sure I'm kidding

I don't think they can kill Rick. He will be a sage in the future universe of TWD, and will also learn necromancy over the years—a completely redundant skillset after the infection

They're banking on Lincoln changing his mind and either coming back long-term eventually or at least coming back for the inevitable series finale

Just what this show needed, another dumb teenager.

ed: What age is she even supposed to be at this point? Producers said two years total between societal collapse and the Negan War, Judith was born at the prison IIRC, so nearly 2?

this show would be slightly better if they were willing to recast characters and have an "the Other Darren" situation if only to stick to a consistent long-term plan instead of constantly skidding a very rickety and poorly-built wagon around giant rocks in the road
