They said the reason they didn't show the character dying in the finale was because they wanted to lead with it with the premiere so that the entire season (or half season) would be about the emotional reaction to it.

If there is one thing this show does well it is emotional relationships. Remember when Beth disappeared and Maggie was torn up about how the last family member she had was missing, and it became a major motivator for her?

Oh wait, that's what writers that got a C+ or above in a college writing course would have done. Nevermind.

Hahahah did they? I missed that, or since forgot about it. That is such a TV network executive that doesn't watch or like the show that's paying their wages type of thing to say.

To be fair to Hardwick, he's probably coached on every little thing he is and isn't allowed to say.

Pretty sure Hardwick got himself a lobotomy. He had some great intros on Fear the Walking Dead's TD where literally nothing would happen in an episode and out he pops all chipper and saying, "Well that sure was an exciting episode! A lot to unpack there!"

Carol seeing zombies as people...

The way Carol died in the comics was so bad I literally 100% forgot until someone posted the page in here, but she basically goes nuts starts talking to a zombie and lets it bite her. She's also pretty sick of life it seems like, she might go out similar to how she did in the comic.

Yeah, it is absolutely still rape. I doubt the women feel sexually liberated and are just choosing who to have a good time with, as opposed to fearing for their safety every time they are approached by the men Negan allows to visit them.

I wouldn't be surprised if OmegaGoon Kirkman thought it was actually more healthy than not though.

Given we barely saw like 3 glimpses of him in the first episode, none in the Dwight episode and he wasn't there this episode, I have to wonder if his involvement in Westworld put him on ice.

Due to a lot of production issues, Westworld episodes were filmed as far back as 2 years ago. I believe most were a full year ago actually.

Even if he was blinking Morse code, how would they show that in another episode?
Like, would Rick hold a church meeting and tell everyone "hey guys, Daryl was actually blinking in code to me and I had to pretend I didn't see that"?

If he really was communicating in code, they would have let the audience in on it.

Even if Rick and Darryl aren't 100% broke, they still saw two friends get murdered after a stupidly elaborate setup to get them to the right place, and act that required like a hundred people or more.

So, they aren't going to start telling people like Spencer what the deal is because he'd roll over in a goddamn nanosecond. Also, they got to stretch this out somehow.

There was the time that Glenn teamed up with her to rescue Maggie, then the time Enid gave her a haircut, so this episode is probably the third or fourth time.

It is just how Reddit works, basically every thought needs it's own thread. If that had been noticed here someone would have just said, "Hey I noticed a cool call back". People would have said, "oh neat" and then moved on with discussion. On reddit though it needs to be a photo or no one cares, and everyone puts their names on poo poo so when it GOES VIRAL they get their e-cred. So it makes it seem like every idiot on there is making a huge deal about a thing they notice.

Excuse me but you got the loving choices wrong so I corrected you. And you still seem to have it wrong because it's not "live" or "die".
It's "work for points" like everyone else has to, or "be my wife, want for nothing" and it's loving selfish for them to even consider it let alone take him up on the offer. Not only does the choice involve betraying their partner, but they no longer have to contribute towards everyone elses survival. What being Negan's wife actually means I cannot speculate to. Maybe they have sex with him and they don't want to but they do it anyway.

They need to go back to their husband. They need to pick the first choice, where they work for points and are no longer an exception.

Yes Negan is a powerful dude. Yes he has a lot of wives. No he is not a rapist.

What the gently caress is wrong with you?

Your opinion is unpopular not due to the rest of the thread's "lack of information" but based on your lack of human understanding and decency. Hope that helps. Might want to put down the PUA manuals for a bit and learn to interact with people.

This is still a false equivelancy though. They're not getting a promotion. They're getting a free ride in a group based on personal merit.
This is equal to working a job, boss saying "sleep with me, live with me, be my wife, and I will pay for everything you need in life" and then quitting your job. Meanwhile your husband is waiting at home, and if you go back to him, your boss comes and asks you "Look, you cheated on me. You hosed up. I'll give you a choice. You can stay with your husband who you obviously love, or you can come back and live with me and want for nothing. Only thing is I'll have to grievously injure your husband in order to test your devotion."

See how it almost rhymes with the version on the tv show? In Negan's camp, you work, or you're nothing. Most societies operate on this principle. He just has no tolerance for welfare, until it's a woman asking. Either they have something to offer him, or he feels an obligation to look after them I have no idea why. Here's Negan comic: His wife dies from cancer, it's very sad. probably feels that pain when he sees other women in need.

Note: I do not share Negan's mind or opinions or support anything this fictional character does in this universe.

Negan is not some calm collected dude presenting a social contract. When he talks to people about "being his wife" he very well might be carrying a bat he regularly uses to bash people's heads in. Negan is a scary and violent man. Many people don't say "no" to scary violent people who might kill someone you care about at the drop of a hat. If you feel like you can't say no, that's rape.

Do you think sex is just a transfer of value by any chance?
