Judith running about with a hand canon like that doesn't really bother me. Let's be honest about it, there's kids in nappies in America that probably have Desert Eagles tucked in them and they've been down the target range with ma and pa practicing. Sounds nuts, but it's closer to reality than some of the shite in TWD.

I was never any good. Then again, I fired nuts (not the KP variety) out of them, and they had some swerve on them. It was like Roberto Carlos taking a free kick.

The trick to using nuts is to fill the hole with mud.

Still watching, be it with one eye on TV and the other on Tablet, yet mostly because I've invested time on it. Yet didn't even clock that it was starting again. So below news didn't really surprise me.

The Walking Dead’ Drops to All-Time Low in Ratings and Viewers


Also noticed in same article that Black Panthers fellow star, Danai Gurira, is working towards quitting. Personally think this series has run its course...also much more quality stuff doing the rounds that it's becoming a task to find time to watch this and motivation to do it.

Will probably DL a few episodes and watch when get really really bored.

It all feels a little pointless without Rick to be honest.

One of Rick or Carl had to stick around for it to remain relevant imo. They should have killed it off and merged any cast members they wanted to keep with FTWD

I am having a hard getting attached to any of the newer characters, so that doesn't help. Lauren Cohen's new show hasn't started yet, but stinks of instant flop, so I'm hoping she'll back in TWD next season.

The last couple of minutes of that should have been cut out. It would have made that end scene a lot more shocking to just leave the viewer with. They should take a leaf out of Game of Thrones for that. Just bad directing in what would have been an otherwise brilliant episode. Best one in a while.

I agree,would've been the perfect opening for the finale.So many levels of sheeeit in that scene,was glued to the screen waiting for the dreads to come into focus.

Just happy that we're getting psycho Carol back.

Agree but I think glossing over how they supposedly kidnapped some of the best fighters in the series without any reprisal is a bit long winded.

Not really,it's how they do,send in the dead,surround and then give you no choice but to surrender or die.

That is clearly not what happened though, as they were taken from the fair and Alpha was on her own.

I was really tempted to give up on TWD after last season but so glad I didn't. This for me has been the best since Season 1, and last night's episode is arguably it's best ever.

Spoiler
With the various deaths recently the show has gained some of that Game of Thrones element where no one is safe so danger is now suspenseful.

Does anyone think Michonne might reach out to Negan for help/advice on what to do about the skinners?

Michonne would be silly not to,I think that she will be silly though and Judith will ask him to help.

The Whisperers are all about territory & that is why she took Daryl (Rick in the comic) to see the horde,come back and we'll destroy you.

All this over a radio relay,it's the cause and will end up being essential to their survival.I'd be happy for them to kill off the majority of the cast,keeping Daryl,Carol and Judith and jumping another few years.Morgan is still making his way back isn't he ?

Carol the Terminator to return, fingers crossed.

I feel uneasy with her being all long haired and blissfully in love.

I'm expecting her head shaved in the season finale and back to her former self.

I think this season has been a lot better than the last few. If it's all about territory, shouldn't they have come across the Whisperers before? And, if they are just a roaming tribe, you think they would just move on, without bothering with the hassle of other communities. Yeah, yeah, I know, wanting logic from the TWD is silly.
