Yeah, I heard about this. It sucks. I hate this shit with shows I'm heavily invested in.
Others I watch with mild interest, meh.
I hope it's not Deanna, I like her and think she's a good leader, she did build a community in Alexandria and was more successful at that than anyone else in the series so far, she failed in making them strong and able to properly defend themselves but she recognized that and let Rick take charge it.
It's been standard operating procedure for this show for years now at this point.

Can't wait to see how they fuck this one up yet again. Everything after the ep where Glenn 'died' has been a miss.

Yeah
But I just caught up, after starting Season 1 in August, to be able to watch this season from the start. So it's kinda new to me.
I was looking online to figure out what the hell Sasha and Abraham was talking about last week. Found this.

SOP for any AMC show, lots of money in basically having two season openers and season finales.

Can't they just have negan say fuck and just bleep it out and then put the uncensored version on the website? Or are there rules to thay?

That would be annoying and break atmosphere.
I've already mentioned it before, but AMC has had the F-bomb drop in Breaking Bad and all they do is half mute the word, it's a perfect solution.
Which is why I'm confused they didn't in the train cart for Rick's "fucking with the wrong people" line
Yeah they did the same thing with the first season of Better Call Saul (twice)

Yes. The Walking Dead, along with every other 13+ episode TV series on every other network, goes on a several month hiatus during the Holiday season.
AMC does it every year with The Walking Dead, but they only occasionally do it with their other shows (the final seasons of Breaking Bad, Mad Men, and Hell on Wheels).

I'm 23 and my parents still don't like to use profanity around me. I think you're underestimating how and why people feel about that stuff. And a lot of young kids watch The Walking Dead

I thinnk it depends on the network.
Starz for example can show titties, drop F bombs and show gore as long as the warning is thee before the show starts. Check out Spartacus and Ash Vs The Evil Dead.
The final seasons of breaking bad were separated by a year iirc. They were treated differently then normal AMC shows

It's cable, they can technically do what ever they want.
Network TV is restricted.

As well as the final seasons of Mad Men and Hell on Wheels - AMC doesn't do it for every show though.

Yeah, technically AMC can do pretty much anything. It's cable, they aren't bound by the same regulation that networks are.
It pretty much comes down to money. As a basic cable channel they make the majority of their income during commercial breaks. I'm not sure of the exact figure, but to have your ad played during TWD hour? It's probably a ridiculous amount. They want to keep them happy, so they stay away from curses and explicit sexual content.
The advantage of a premium cable channel such as HBO is that they don't have to worry about commercials as much because its subscription based.

Probably. Not liking this structure. I hate how every episode is a different group or character. I liked it when they are all together.

spoilers for episode 7
Might have that in it, but no - that's not the main focus. This is a plot-moving episode.

I assume they are keeping it for the mid-season finale as one of their "big twist" and i quote big twist because he's not dead and anyone who thinks otherwise is just being silly and probably thought their TV was broke when it was doing black and white flash backs on the series premiere.
It's either that or he will show up in the 2nd half premiere/finale.
