This is the best walking dead episode ever made.
I literally shouted NO! when Sam was asking his mom that he wants to go with Gabriel because I knew that little fuckstick was lost up there and would've made them zombie dinner. Instead the little fuckstick made his own family zombie dinner LOL. bye sam. Based Carol fucked with his head and planned this out so Ricktator doesn't have any baggage. Rick going bananas was awesome. Gabriel earned his redemption like a pro with that speech. I AM THE GOD YOU MOTHERFUCKERZZ
Daryl's splash kill of Negan's scout party was too good. Nibble that! Rick's party is beyond leveled at this point. Morgan needs to hear that the W guy did change at the end. I have a feeling that Daryl did kill a lot of Negan's people though and from the sound of things, that bad dude's not going to let him get away with it.

This is badass to me. Shout out to the comic book roots.
Oh man I couldn't disagree more. I love where the comic has gone. And where it's gone should be proof that an anecdote will never be part of the story. That's not what it's about. Like, at all. It's practically antithetical to the entire point and plot.
On topic, it was amazing seeing the Carl storyline actually happen on screen. I thought they backed out when they made it off the porch without reference to Sam crying for his mom.
One last thing - I can easily see the next 50 issues taking at least 3 seasons. If not 4. Point being, by the time they start to catch up to the comic, I think the show will be ending anyway. And I can't see them diverging too much. Especially knowing we're about to enter the Negan arc. That's the next 2-3 seasons alone. And the aftermath of that arc has to play out the same. Its too good.

Guys it's still spoilers when you're openly discussing how long an arc is going to last in relation to the comic.

Maybe, but I don't expect the production crew to spend another three, four or more seasons in Alexandria, especially if it starts hitting some of the filler points in the comic. I expect them to condense it down a bit and start making some kind of push towards a definitive ending in the next two seasons or so.
Frankly, I can't see the show going on for so long without audience apathy setting in. There's already a companion show, and we're soon going to push into the seventh season of this. What's the endgame? What's the point of all this bloodshed and conflict?
If the answer is, "Alexandria survives, nothing changes and everyone just keeps going", then it's pretty much pointless. Anything less than a satisfying, conclusive ending (whether it's a cure or society rallying together on a much greater scale) is going to be pointless, as far as I'm concerned.

lets face it walking dead statute of limitations has been the day of and that's it lol.
No one can know can cause Kirkman is still writing the comics. And the show has been following the source material more closely the longer it's gone on. Gimple who has been the show runner since season 4 loves the comics so I'm expecting it to continue to follow the source material. Who knows where Gimple/Kirkman are taking all of this and how they plan to end the show/comic I'm sure it's going to be somehow similar in comparison and follow the same direction. So it's all just a waiting game. Just have to enjoy the ride.
Only got to watching it not long ago and instantly came here to read the reactions.
So good.
So so good.
It was all I expected.
In class today I knew the eye scene happened, I could hear a guy raving about it in the next classroom. Dude was blown away.
Not as much as the bikers but still....

okay thanks, helps puts things into perspective. from the way people have been talking about it makes me think it's like 3-4 seasons or something.
What do you mean? Some of the storyline on the show isn't following the chronological order of the comics?

Why does it need a point or endgame?
This show isn't about happy endings, it's about how people react in times of crisis.
Robert has said the worst thing about zombie movies is that they always end so abruptly.
This isn't going to be one of those. There is a lot more depth to the important questions here such as can a society be rebuilt after such an event taking place.

I liked the episode overall, but I don't understand Carl not being able to get loose from the mom's grip... seemed contrived to get the desired outcome.
I was slightly disappointed, just in not giving the Carl being shot or Rick going out and single handily fucking shit up enough time on screen. They needed to pause a bit more for dramatic effect, like maybe something like "Show a scene with Aaron looking out the window and seeing what Rick is doing" before he comments that they need to help.
I find this show cuts too quickly on the important scenes and lingers on the non-important scenes too much. Is it just me?
This may just be me a bit more as I probably paused myself when reading these scenes in the comic.

I just saw the episode, it was ok. I don't really understand how Daryl managed to silently take out the guy and fire and RPG without anyone noticing, or how Glenn is apparently a complete idiot and gets himself cornered for no reason, then surviving a barrage of bullets being fired in his direction, but whatever.
I'm glad that family is dead. The mom was all right, but if she had to be sacrificed to get the other 2 out of the way, then I'm all for it. The less annoying kids, the better.
I found the whole sociopathic lunatic suddenly becoming redeemable and changing within the span of maybe a couple hours to be insulting to the viewers intelligence.

Greg Nicotero? Pretty sure he's directed a few by this point.

No, it wasn't. Nicotero has directed a bunch of episodes, including the Season 5 and Season 6 season premieres

I think the worst scene in the episode was the silent rpg from outta nowhere like Daryl is randy Orton. Absolutely ridiculous.
Just got done watching the opener. Thought it was pretty good overall. One scene I busted out laughing was when Sam started to freak out. The memories of Carol telling him the monsters are going to tear him to shreds and sure enough he's the late night snack hahaha.
Forgive me

I believe Carl surviving over Glenn coming out unscathed from gunfire.

Yeah I'm willing to suspend disbelief at the best of times but that was a little rich for my blood.
The bullet grazed him, not shot through.
That doesn't really make sense though considering Coral was facing him straight on. A bullet hitting his eye would be lodged in his skull at the very least. I think they gave him a 9mm if I remember right which should have enough force for an exit wound.

Should have clarified I was talking about Glenn. Punished Coral is fine by me.

Sweet fuck that episode was amazing. Best one ever I think. So much happened.
Arrival of Negan to fuck up Rick and his plans will be awesome.

It grazed his eye socket, making it shatter.
I have seen far worse gun shot wounds. It's not like you couldn't survive a headshot.
how is he gonna connect the deaths of his people to daryl and the others ? they didnt leave anyone alive. im really curious about this one

When he said Tyrese I thought he was referring to T-Dog. I'm a terrible person. He died a hero, Tyrese died like a punk.

I think the Wolf was already redeemed before this episode. If he really was that bad of a guy still, he would have slit the throats of Morgan and Carol after knocking them out.

Time works funny in Alexandria. Remember the season 5 finale when Rick discovered the gate was left open during the daytime and by the time he ran halfway into town it was pitch black?
Alexandria is part of the twilight zone.

They engraved their home addresses into their guns, in case they got lost so someone could return them through the mail. Obviously!
The guns will be the only clues, you're right.

It take about 40 minutes to an hour to go from dusk (which can still be relatively bright outside) to night. So I think it's more that it was late in the day when they began walking
The show deviates a bit with characters and plot lines but it's kept things in chronological order with the comics as best I can recall. You pretty much always know exactly where you're at in comparison and what is coming next.
I'm really hoping we'll get that moment in the next episode, like the comics; Abraham walking around,
So glad they followed the comics with these deaths. Rick was quicker to react in the comic though.
cleaning up the streets and he finds the zombified, heavily devoured version of Jesse. Afterwards he shoots her in the head and goes like "Rick doesn't need this shit.

If Daryl had a theme song on this show, it would be this

He's clearly proven that he's a Super Hero

I loved the most recent episode but dayum, there are too many commercials. I'm thinking about buying a show pass instead.
