Fantastic episode and easily the best of the season so far.

Really left us on a cliffhanger until January.

Lots to look forward to in the 2nd half of the season, These new foes are brilliant and conniving.

February.

The graveyard scene was one of the best in the shows history,brilliantly shot & even better with headphones.

Proper brilliant episode those last 10 mins were as intensive as Shane smashing the barn door open.

It was a lot better than some of the stuff that we’ve been served over the last few years, I thought the fog over a graveyard was a bit over the top though.

Regarding Henry, I think he may be taking over from Carl in regards to story line. It's all quite similar from the books so far in regards to what Carl did at this point. If it is the case he'll be heavily involved in the second part.

The article I posted yesterday is an interview with the showrunner. She also said he's dead, but they do have seven years to explore, so he might be in flashbacks. He doesn't seem too keen, though!

Mivi · « **Reply #5172 on:** November 27, 2018, 06:14:39 pm »

Ah well that blows my theory out the water then

They didn't really show how 'close' him and Aaron are in the books either.

Brian Blessed · « **Reply #5173 on:** November 27, 2018, 06:26:10 pm »

I thought they were going to explore that further after the training they did the other week. Not likely now...unless it is in flashbacks.

That was a great episode, this so far has been the best season in years. Hate that we'll need to wait until February.

Spoiler

I really envy whoever was watching that without knowing the herd wasn't just zombies as per the usual. I was on the edge of my seat when the zombie ducked Jesus' sword, and immediately thought of what I would've been feeling if I didn't know he wasn't a zombie!

Tend to prefer binge watching shows nowadays, so though the mid-season break would be the prefect time to catch up on what was always going to be a season full of big change, All in all, really enjoyed it. One thing I wan't happy about though...

Spoiler

Killing off Jesus. Really enjoyed the few moments his character had to shine, just wish he had more of them. Finally looked like he might have been stepping out of the shadows & they fucking off him

Reading that the actor wasn't happy with what they did to the character, & I can't blame him. He had that amazing introduction but did little to nothing of note from then on. All the potential to be one of the best/ most badass characters on the show imo, but they wasted him.

.. very rarely criticise things, but that did annoy me

Upinsmoke · « **Reply #5176 on:** December 6, 2018, 09:20:57 pm »

The show is much better when you binge it rather than wait a week at a time.

Enjoying it again

Yep. This reveal was always going to let people down. Unfortunately it's still going to suffer from all the same problems it has done since after the prison. I recently revisited the scene where they went to the CDC lab and the scientist there was explaining his study and his findings. It was only a couple of minutes, but it was like watching an entirely different show to what it is now, and it was infinitely better acted, better scripted and far more interesting.

Another filler. Those episodes are such a waste. They’ve created this whole alternative universe, yet they feel the need to produce filler episodes. Just have fewer episodes each season instead.

Same here, rather enjoyed the episode but perhaps that is because Negan is my favourite character in the show. Looking forward to next weeks instalment.

Seemed like a filler because they had to show Negan leave,give everyone an idea what he got up to & then have him return.They should maybe have made the previous episode longer so we only needed him to come back in 9,then it could've hit the ground running.

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.

The thing that does my head in is the marksmanship of a bunch of plebs with Black Widow slingshots. I mean, they fucking shoot straighter than some of them with scoped rifles, and are more deadly. Trowing a knife also seems to be a guaranteed headshot and a kill from 50 meters.

Other than that, I like the fact that Samantha Morton is playing Alpha. She looks and sounds like a right physco.

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.
