The only episode this season that was worth a **** was the episode with Negan and the Priest trapped in the trailer. The rest of it is just garbage television. All true. And it's still one of the better shows on TV.
SlimShady'sSpaceForce Posted December 11, 2017 Posted December 11, 2017 Bye Carl. It’s about time. Too long if you ask many of us.

SlimShady'sSpaceForce Posted December 11, 2017 Posted December 11, 2017 Now we have to live through Carl’s backstory for the episode in February.

Yeah it was very obvious from the start of the episode. What I posted earlier and then deleted was that I thought Carl was already dead before any of this fight happened. I was wrong but I was right. Kid actors are always tough tough for any show that runs this long. Judith probably winds up filling his role. Keeping her around was a smart move.

Jerry Christ Posted December 11, 2017 Posted December 11, 2017 you guys must not read the comics........He's character is one of the best and was only going to get better......but this just means the show is almost over.
SlimShady'sSpaceForce Posted December 11, 2017 Posted December 11, 2017 oh and those cowardly garbage heap people .... what a waste of the shows time
bdutton Posted December 11, 2017 Posted December 11, 2017 When the Saviors captured Maggie's convoy, why didn't they just execute the entire lot of them? This show makes no sense.

This show makes no sense. I had another question on everything that lead up to that. I wasn't paying much attention at the start, but weren't Carol, Rick, and Jerry all in the same car as they were t-boned? Fast-forward to your encounter and the saviors have Jerry captured but Carol and Rick are off roaming free. It's possible I just skipped a scene or two, but I have no idea how it got to that point. The one thing that I think they dropped the ball on in a big was was the clearing out of the herd at the sanctuary. They said Eugene figured it out and implied that it was related to loud music, but the specifics weren't clear at all. His remote control plane was shot down by Dwight. The saviors huge speaker truck was destroyed by Daryl. What other big sound devices did they have that Eugene had to dream up?

This show makes no sense. For a bunch that seemed to have such tight control systems over their serfs they sure do seem to make a lot of mistakes. They should have shot Maggie not the dude in the back seat. Why in the hell would you let a leader off the hook?

So it at least makes sense that they don't kill her right there. The real question should be why they don't capture her and then march directly to the hilltop to kill her there.

It's bad in a lot of ways but I think the worst part is how terrible the character development or lack thereof is. All of Ricks side are simply bland. Didn't start off that way. Glen was a nerdy tech. Ricks cop partner was a semi hothead that was messing with his wife. Maggie's dad was interesting. As it progressed all of the good guy characters became cookie cutter. All badasses. All the chicks became Rambettes. Carol is laughable toting around semi-auto' and looks as threatening as my little Bichon/King Charles dog. One of the other chicks who is supposed to be a demolition expert I guess, looks like she had a boob job after the last season and must weigh all of 95lbs. Can't act to save her life. They have focused some on the gay guy losing his partner like we are supposed to care. The guy was a minor ancillary character that I forgot even existed but we are supposed to get all teary-eyed about him? Baddies are by far the most interesting people on the show.

They want Rick and the King for sure. Murdering a pregnant woman will send a very bad message and not to the group Negan intends IMO

Maybe so, but I do know the difference between quality and shite. All you have to do is watch a episode of Walking Dead and then watch any episode of Better Call Saul, Stranger Things, Mad Men, Breaking Bad etc and the difference is astounding. It probably is a good education of how to and not to develop characters, progress a coherent plot line. Acting skill on and on. No comparison. Walking Dead is unimaginative, juvenile and shallow. Mind numbing to watch at this point. I wish Negan would wipe em all out. Fire the writers and then MAYBE there might be something of substance there to watch.
