    Gregory's a turncoat cunt and deserves to die an ultra-violent death.

    Eugene, on the other hand... deserves to run the entire operation like a kingpin.

    loved it when he declined to be sprung and ran inside like a wee little bitch.

    he's now one of my favorite characters.

    he deserves some time in the sun.

    If you freeze it and brighten up the pic, it looks more like Darryl than Dwight.

    So I guess no one dug last week's episode?

    I'm really looking forward to the finale being a lot of talk and buildup until the communities inevitably get in their cars to head to the Sanctuary. End scene. Fade to black. See you in 7 months.

    Fantastic.

    Of course they'd make a great episode and then say see you in 7 months.

    I fucking pumped my fist when Shiva showed up.

    9/10

    I'm happily relieved that this finale was better than I ever hoped it would be. This was easily the best finale this show has done since Season 4 really, and that was a cliffhanger laced finale. Maybe even on par with Seasons 1 and 2, no hyperbole at all. Completely shits all over 5 and 6. I didn't think this show had it in them anymore to make a finale like this where they didn't fuck up royally.

    The last twenty minutes of this show were amazing. I thought the Sasha with the headphones was a little too art house, but it was worth it. I do wish one of the baddies would die, but that is probably something for next season.

    Fuck me. Those last 20 minutes were this show at it's very best, kinda makes all the shit worthwhile. It wasn't perfect by any means and the first 2/3rds were slow with not a lot going on. But damn did it get so good.

    That speech at the end by Maggie got me, there's something about a show where the key events that sets everything off; that then brings the main characters together that just gets me. Something very Lost-like about that, and when a show does that well just like Lost did I get fully into it.

    The Maggie speech was great. Just a great episode. My only gripe is it took 15 episodes to get to it.

    Maybe not 15 but you know what I mean. This season dragged.

    Yeah, if this were the mid-season finale, this season would've been amazing.

    Yep, it dragged big time. Overall it was a poor, dull, fairly rubbish season. Its annoying, when this show does it right, it's brilliant. This moments are becoming few and far between though. Wheres all the gore and actual deaths these days too!?

    I don't get why some people want this show to get somewhere quicker than it should. It needs it's build, it needs it's character moments, it needs to breathe every so often. When I stick my dick in a girl, I'm not looking to explode as soon as it enters. I want to enjoy it for at least 30 secs. LOL

    And just like sex, sometimes it's nice to go slow and enjoy it. Then maybe every 2 or 3 times you have an earth shattering round.

    That's an interesting post.

    Anyway I think build up is very important but not filler (fill her?).

    The show would probably be better if they made the seasons shorter by an episode or four.

    I don't want them to shorten the season, if anything, stop the in between shit. I hate getting into the first part of the season, then it's over for a couple of months then comes back for 8 episodes and then gone for 6-7 months. I hated that with Burn Notice and any other show that only does 14-16 episodes a year. Give us a full season, or don't break up the 16 episodes into 2 part seasons. And even now, we have to wait 9 weeks for Fear The Walking Dead to start again.

    Welp

    Comic Spoilers from the latest issue.



    I think its safe to assume given how much this showrunner keeps the comics close. That this has severe implications for a certain character moving forward. Not likely for a season or two, but still.

    So Josh McDermitt deleted his social media accounts because he has been receiving death threats because of his character. How fucking scary is it that in this day and age, people still can't differentiate between real life and acting.

    It's fucking stupid like those idiots that started the petition to get Braun Strowman fired because he threw an empty stretcher off the loading dock. It's called acting and it's called get a fucking life and leave our shit alone that we enjoy.

    Just got up to date. Fuck me, the end of that season was something else, was hoping for Simon or Negan to get it but I guess that can wait.

    When is season 8 coming out?

    I thought there might be a writers strike or something? Is that the same in the U.K.?

    The strike was thankfully averted a few days ago. I don't know when it airs in the UK, though.

    So...did everyone just miss the premiere? I thought it was good. I am kinda ok with them playing with the possible Rick futures since it will keep comic book fans on their toes. Father Gabriel is a moron.

    Watching tonight. I have had kind of waning interest in this show the last couple of seasons. I think FTWD has been a bit stronger in terms of compelling storylines. Looking forward to the new season.

    I thought it was a good episode. I'm all for them playing with timelines at this point, especially after how slow last season dragged.

    I hope all of the All Out War episodes have a quick pace. This episode felt like 25 minutes, not 45. If I were Gabriel, I would've just rapid fired in the trailer. You might die, but he would've definitely shot Negan several times. Loved the scene where Gabriel pulled Rick from focusing in Negan.

    This was the episode with the least amount of Negan lean backs.

    I enjoyed this episode. It had some good moments. It's nice to see the good guys on top again. I loved the part where Gabriel refocused Rick and when Rick released the walker on the injured foe. Gabriel progression through the last few episodes has been enjoyable.

    I agree, FTWD's last season was easily better than TWD's last.

    Last nights episode was alright, not particularly good though. Whilst it had action it just didn't captivate me. The multiple speeches got annoying and I'm done with Negan too. I don't really dislike him, he's just annoying and dull. My interest here is waning too, if it hadn't been going for 8 years I would've given up by now.

    The flash-forwards are interesting though, I'm getting a Lost-vibe there which I love.

    I was sadly disappointed to be fair, I don't really know what I wanted from the episode but it wasn't there, also not a fan of flash forwards as they ruin potential tension points.

    And I can't believe the show has made Jeffery Dean Morgan sooooooo dull.

    He's not exactly done amazingly though has he. All he does talk with a smirk on his face and lean a lot, the writing isn't great for him too but I don't think he's been great. I still maintain someone else should've been Negan, I wanted Jon Hamm.

    Another solid episode. This show is really riding the momentum of All Out War. Not a fan of all the shots of the characters faces to bookend the episode. I do like that they have broken it into four segments right now. Morgan going on a murder spree, then stopping by being blinded by the sun was beautiful.

    Zoe saying "Fake til you make it, baby." Was the best. Great action episode. The reveal at the end was nuts.

    Agreed. I thought that character would've been the cross over character they were talking about at NYCC.

    i've always liked this show best when they just went with the straight action, so i'm liking this season a lot so far.

    Ratings has dipped down to Season 2 levels and it's not surprising. I haven't hated this season so far, but I will say I've detested the directing and editing immensely. The constant character and time jumping is ridiculous. You start an episode and it's difficult to assess when the events are taking place... like after the ending of the last episode? Or before? Just horrendous. And the inconsistencies of faction strength are definitely there. Last season, the saviors were nigh impossible to combat... now they're a bunch of scrubs like a bunch of chickens w/ their heads cut off. The actions scenes have also been done very poorly enough where I need to go back and rewatch what just happened.

    Top to bottom, a very lazily executed season.

    I've found this season to be fun and interesting. I think it's very easy to follow. I enjoy the storytelling and look forward to each week. I've enjoyed this season far more than last. No issue on my part.

    Mid season finale was last night and really enjoyed it. While the jumping between characters and time has been a little too confusing for me, I've enjoyed the last few episodes. And the imminent death that's coming was pretty gutting. The season so far has been very average IMO, it started off ok... dipped heavily in the middle... and has come back some for the mid season finale. Looking forward to the rest of the season, but Walking Dead really really needs to do something to revitalize things.

    I hate the art house way this show has done things since Tyrese died. It doesn't happen every episode, but when it's done, it feels out of place and silly. I am glad the war is not over, but I am not sure where they go from here. I am sad about the inevitable death. I only wished more people would have died.

    I felt like what they got through in the first 8 episodes could have been done in about 3 episodes. Maybe 4.

    More zombies please.

    My hope is with contract negotiations coming up. Most of the cast hold the show hostage and they only agree to contracts that see the show end in Season 9 or they walk. If enough of them do that, AMC's hand will be forced. I already see the long con job of merging the FTWD characters over to the main show via Morgan and I doubt the Fear cast is gonna want to be known as the 'replacements' to keep milking the main show. Not only that, most of the TWD fandom can't stand the Fear characters anyway.

    With ratings declining since Season 5 and dropping all the way down to Season 3 levels. The Network really should just admit defeat and give it a proper end game.

    Ratings are down but they are still attracting a ton of viewers. It's generating more viewers than any other show on amc.

    I wish Fear was coming back before the start of the second half of this season.

    Fear The Walking Dead > The Walking Dead at this point.

    this show does seem to have lost a lot of buzz but i think it's been at its best the first half of the season. less meandering and more action packed and moving the story forward, which was always the shows strong suit.

    This show could be in for a hell of a shake up.

    Maggie is in contract disputes and has signed on for a new pilot. If it gets picked up there is very good odds she's done.

    Michonne may be a new Hollywood star after her rave reviews for black panther.

    They really need to end this. This past episode was all sorts of boring. I only watch because I invested so much time into it already.

    I still look forward to the show every week, and hopefully it'll get better with the new show runner next season.

    But doing things like killing off Carl don't make any fucking sense.

    This show is such a hot mess right now.

    If im Lauren Cohan, I dump this show ASAP. Sure, they might kill her character off offscreen but so be it. If they leave the door open, I wouldn't come back unless it were the final season. As it is, Lauren Cohan was never the lead actress post Season 3. That became Melissa/Carol. To be fair, Melissa is a good actress and probably better than Cohan, but the writers have basically criminally ignored Maggie for the better part of 4 seasons, much like Carl. The deaths of Hershel and Beth basically did nothing to develop the character, because the writers never cared to put focus there. Same for Glenn.

    Its clearly making things up as it goes along, its long drifted into plot over character, etc.

    This Network seems content to drag this out because they have no real viable replacement show that will bring people to the Network.

    With the ratings going down since Season 5. The Network should seriously consider trying to end this thing on a high note with Season 9 as the series ender, instead of bleeding it dry, leaving any credibility behind.

    Why would AMC end it when, even with declining ratings, it's still the top rated show?

    I just wish they'd get back on track and not do stupid shit like kill Carl because that throws off everything.

    Some of the deviations from the comics have been great (Carol and Shane), but others have just been oof.

    I felt it was alright. The Carl death was fucking prolonged though. So the new plan is to not kill, but to make everyone friendly? Okay.

    I'm just so tired of the show flip-flopping characters. They all about surviving and killing when they have to... to not killing anyone... then realizing that's bullshit and going back to survival mode... but no don't kill this guy.

    I think it’s about time they just veered hard left, there are so many changes now from the source material I think they’d be as well to just totally split, have Rick die and just let the writers have free hands with their vision as right now they seem torn between two routes and the show is suffering badly as a result.

    I disagree. I think it was a pretty good episode, minus the Oceanside nonsense, and things are building toward the end of this war and I THINK something else down the line.

    The conversation between Rick and Negan has me fully on Negan's side. Rick's a prick.

    Speculation from source material....



    Also, how fantastic was the zombie killing scene with the trash compactor/shredder? I loved it. This episode was way better than the mid-season premiere.

    But the show's disregarded the comic so many times since Season 1 even, who the hell knows.

    This week's episode was a much needed shot in the arm for the show.

    This half season has really picked up steam. I'm actually excited for each new episode now.

    I thought it was a good finale. Glad they kept Negan alive and I intrigued by a possible coup by Maggie, Daryl and Jesus. It's long overdue that someone finally wants to supplant Rick the Prickly.

    Fear was great though. Love the new characters and just how everything on the show is done.

    It was a great finale. I'm excited for TWD for the first time in a while.

    Also, timeline question: how long in time did this season take? A few weeks? How has Maggie still not showing?

    By the way, Fear is the better show right now. I got back into it a few weeks ago and got hooked.

    Good ending to a very average season. I just can't be arsed with any more bollocks with people vs people. Let the show take its course how it should - how to overcome this fucking thing.

    Another very good Fear episode.

    The Vultures are my kind of crew. "We're just gonna wait and drink beer."
