It's going to turn out they found another random person wondering through the woods and thought they were with Ricks group and that's the one they kill. No main characters die.

I got it, right before he swings the bat, the group that Morgan found will ride in and kill Negan and the saviors, and all the cries and blow are from them dying and leaves Ricks group the chance to ruin another group of Survivors.

Realistically though, it's going to be Adam (That's the gay guys name right?) cause he is a minor character that we know nothing about, yet would somehow still be sad to see him die.

Oh cool and the season resolved nothing and ended on another cliffhanger.

gently caress this terrible terrible show. I think I'm finally ready to stop bitching about TWD and and get proactive about not watching it.

TWD is best watched all at once on Netflix and then watch the season premier. Then don't give a poo poo about it until it's back on Netflix again.

Just binged watched season 7 and how the hell do they have time to do funerals and provide medical care for the people that are dead/hurt? Like what is Negan going back to the base and resting up for a week before loving their poo poo up?

I'm no expert, but I will pretend to be one for a minute...

I don't think any amount of strippong weight off a car would get the weight down to what a wood wagon wound weigh. Plus there is some extra fritction between a rubber car tire vs a wood wagon wheel.

But that being said. Seems they should be able to figure out how to make a basic wood wagon / cart with the free sacturary labor and the book of knowledge they got last season...

I enjoyed Z-nation and will watch again once more gets to Netflix.

Although, it was hard to get past the first 2 seasons that were basically all just bottle episodes that could be put in any order and still work because there is minimal plot that goes beyond any episode other than get this guy to California via the dumbest routes possible.

They should reshoot the Walking Dead Season 1, but all the characters start with the experience they have now.

Kind of like an RPG where you can restart from the beginning with your same progress.

They'd probably just take over the entirety of Atlanta.

By the way, I'm certainly not saying that all Asian male actors look alike, but was anyone distracted by "not-Glenn" seated next to Maggie while they were driving the cart? Why would they cast an Asian actor who has a goatee and similar haircut to Glenn and put him right next to Maggie in a scene? Just a little weird.

It's there way of replacing Glenn by giving Maggie a new Asian gently caress boi.

Also they are saying, Maggie just really likes Asian dudes.

Better than season 8 but I hesitate to use the word "good".

So according to the ad campaign, Rick only has 2 more episodes? Does that mean they're doing a split season and we get a whole half season of "man I sure wish Rick was here"?

Well they always do a split season of TWD, but at least Rick dying isn't going to be a cliff hanger between the two halves...

I legit thought that the "downfall and death of Rick, probably at the hands of Maggie and Daryl" would be due to Rick getting powertrippy or becoming an rear end in a top hat. But unless he takes a real face/heel turn in the next two episodes, he seems like he's completely right and is being a good leader and peacemaker. It's the assholes who are going to kill him and ruin it for everyone.

Unless he just walks face first into a zombie or something. :shrug:

Rick is going to get bit trying to save Negan from zombies after Daryl and Maggie accidentally let him free.

So they are gonna have Rick die like a bitch and leave a cliffhanger about what's going on at Carol's came that now nobody will really care about because Rick.

Not only is the hole dumb, the fact that there is a random hole and never had a zombie fall in it until there was a gunshot 10 miles away is astounding.

Why was Rick in such a hurry to pull Daryl out of the hole?

He kept yelling at him to hurry even though he was like 10 feet above the zombies in the hole and there were no other zombies around. It was the silliest fake-tension thing the show has done in a while.

No, didn't you see, there were zombies on them the second they got out of the hole! Got em out in the nick of time!

Through the magic of shoddy writing.

Has any show not tanked after losing the main protagonist? The Office lost half their viewers, Rosanne same thing. I just can’t imagine people continuing to watch the “B-team” and caring at all.

And that’s because the show doesn’t care about them either.


Yea, they seemed to handle killing Rick in the worst way possible for keeping the show going. Like maybe Daryl, Carol, and Maggie could have carried the show if Rick went out at a peak or something.

But going out in such a lovely fashion, that doesn't really move the story along with his death, kind of feels like a nail in the coffin for the show.

Like, Carl died, but they managed to write it so the story went forward a bit with his death.

Rick, just dies in the middle of no where, and they will have to do a Zombie Rick showing up somewhere for even the main characters to know he died...

That pit was way too deep to be used solely for zombies. Basically we need a pit flash back episode.

Also after watching the gif it's clear that the horse definitely murdered Rick.

It was Negan's horse, and he specifically trained it in about 2 weeks to take Rick to that one spot and dump him.

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?

She's 2 going on 5 I guess.

Seems kind of risky doing a 6 year time jump. Right now it's pretty easy to just get a new kid actor to be Judith every season or two. Not as easy with a 10 year old that might actually contribute to the story.
