Eh, not much they can do to have realistic blood show up on camera. American Horror Story: Asylum/Season 2 did a jump-scare of cutting the viewers throat with a quick red flash. They could've probably done similar if it wasn't being beaten to death.

Imagine if GoT faded to black before one of the infamous MC death scenes.
Oh wait they tried that last season and everyone said it sucked.

Damn...was hoping the cliff hanger ending stuff would prove to be incorrect. Oh well. The episode was so strong up to that moment with the Carol and Morgan stuff being the only part I didn't enjoy. Damn...the bat scene was such a shocking moment and they somehow found a way to rob it of that. Also really didn't like the way it was shot, but I guess that was necessary for the cliff hanger. CGI blood dripping down the camera was also really cheesy. Damnit Walking Dead...what happened?

Everyone needs to watch YMS Walking Dead Season 1 and Season 2 recap.
He goes over what AMC has done to the show and the back door shit.
She was gone for all of the second half because she had a kid, so in that scene I think she's already had it.

She's not even an option.
The lineup in no particular order: Rick, Carl, Maggie, Glenn, Daryl, Sasha, Abe, Eugene, Aaron, Michonne, Rosita.

It would be crazy if the next season starts with the same scene, but first person from Negan's perspective.
Like you see the characters look up at him all scared and shit as he walks by each of them. Then one of them gets murked in first person and we find out who it was.

What's just as shocking is that, unlike some of the leaks, both Carol and Morgan survive, even though Carol's death has been built up for the whole season. Only a SINGLE human died in a freaking season finale of The Walking Dead. Scott Gimple has no balls and his time is over.
Doesn't matter, unless they find a way to film an entire season of shows with no fan pictures of who is on set, as well as have the victim disappear from public life while the episodes are filming (except in Georgia)

Jeffrey Dead Morgan is too good for this show.

hanging a hungry Netflix over AMC? what do you mean?
haha, it would be pretty awesome if the audience literally starts rioting
that'd actually make a difference

They did the same shit with the mid-season finale, and changed how it was for some weird reason. Season 4 finale was bullshit as well. Season 3 as well. Season 1, 2 & 5 were good...the rest were fucking pathetic and cliffhangery as fuck.
Edit: Darrly's journey?? What journey!? At least of the unpredictable story arc's they gave Carol one at least this season.
Oh, I got Rosita confused with her. Should have kept refreshing GAF during that time lol

Aren't major deaths during the season finales actually rare? I remember someone going over that. Something like Andrea was the last big one in a finale.

If AMC tries to start any shit with the show they would cut AMC out and just go to Netflix for where the show will be, at least that's my guess.
Walking Dead doesn't have the protection of being co-owned, so we get stuck with budget cuts, hack directors and obvious meddling with higher ups to produce moments like what we saw for the sake of a hashtag.
The producers are to blame for this show as it is now. Just an overdrawn series with no clear vision. So many promising moments are ended with a whimper. Their season finale and premieres have been shit.
when did they do that?

That's not the point. They ruined an otherwise great episode with a cheap cop out ending that completely ruins the impact of what they were building up to.

Yes, did not see that coming. That they'd be both be away from this.
Tons of actresses work while having kids, it's the actual pregnancy that's the issue, and that'll be over with next season. Like Zoey Deschanel taking a few episodes off on New Girl. Probably even less of an issue for a relatively minor supporting character.

Netflix tried to get Better Call Saul as an exclusive series, but AMC outbid them. They are willing to pick it up should anything like what almost happened with BB occur.

Well they had a chance and blew it IMO. They had so much viewing capital built up too.
Just when you thought TWD was about to have a GOT moment, if not better, it reminds you that seasons 2 and 3 happened.

In the first five minutes? The impact is gone. We had a season buildup. You can't come back after months and pretend we are still in the moment.
Stannis, I'm guessing.

season 4 was a cliffhanger but it was a conclusive one. i know that's kinda oxymoronic but you know what I mean.
but season 6 was just, bad. that glenn shit - the thing about that is, if they ended that episode with glenn falling into the zombie herd and just cut the scene there, it would've been fine. but then they show glenn seemingly getting eaten, ugh...it's almost like the showrunners purposely breaking the fourth wall, playing a game with the viewer trying to get them to question what the fuck is going on.
then they have the goddamn nerve to stick a 90 minute morgan flashback episode that nobody was asking for the week right after it. that wasn't a bad episode, but it didn't need to be 90 minutes and it definitely should not have come after the glenn shit.
and the next episode didn't give closure either.
i didn't like how some of the character arcs went either. but the worst thing was the season finale.

Seriously, great acting from Andrew Lincoln
oh yeah, that was dumb. but still, that episode had a lot more going on so it was easy to forget.
they are gonna Data mining all the internet reaction and pick up the safest choice
DangerMouse
Member
Yeah, that was nuts. He did a great job.
But they will and they'll do it and the general audience will still be upset at who it is that died and we'll move on. People are upset now. I get it. Get it out of your systems because we'll be right back in 6 months.

Kirkman cracks me up lol.
This whole thing serves as pretty much nothing more than an excuse to gauge fan reactions and go with the safest possible choice. Truth is, as much as I like him, I would've found entertainment in watching them scurry for their bunkers until the next season if they made it Daryl.

I don't know, it depends on how you do it. I thought they did a great job opening up this season with the huge horde and then filling in the gaps as the episode went along. It didn't pick up right from Morgan's appearance at the end of Season 5

Oh I see. I didn't know netflix was trying to get breaking bad. what was the sort of tension AMC was creating?
