I was looking for a content roundup post of reviews/reactions from the S6 finale but couldn't find one (there's no such link in the thread's OP), does anyone know if there was one?
I'm really excited and nervous for this season, I can't wait. I enjoyed season 6 but I feel like the writers kill lot of characters. I know that what the walking dead is about but I feel like they overdid it. I think they need to tone it down little bit. That's my opinion though.

The idea of people getting offended because other people enjoy a series is offensive
It goes both ways

Why do you care? Why are you even here?
Nah, the main cast has been safe for way too long, they need to start making some sacrifices.

Why does he wear the mask!?
Doubt it. Kirkman said he regretted doing it in the comic, plus the added costs of cgi/prosthetic

Im excited, but fuck amc and maybe kirkman
Too small of a role, at the moment.
Lashley

Yeah, I'm hoping it gets bigger. He has this crazy on screen presence, and it isn't just because I recognise him as Trevor.

Started rereading the comics around Issues #100 (where the show is now on TV), and stumbled on this in the letters section of Issue #101. This is Robert Kirkman's response to a fan's letter complaining about the death of the character in the comics at the hands of Negan. Issue #101 was printed in July 2012.
I removed the name and references to the name in case some have still somehow avoided this spoiler after all this time
If Kirkman is telling the truth in the letters section (which is debateable). it is interesting such a big moment was kinda done on a whim - even though it helped the propel the comic forward in the long run.

Im watching through the xfinity online TV watch system. You can basically stream the AMC channels and there is even an AMC to-go stream. But i think it is all handled based on local time. I didnt see different timezone streams.

I'm pretty sure he's saying that in jest, since the original letter was apparently written by the actor that plays said character on the show.

Huge spoiler pics out. I'd stay away until the episode comes out if you don't want to be spoiled.

So help me understand.. (comic spoilers)
Robert Kirkman thought that Steven Yeun made TV Glenn so much better than comic book Glenn that he offed comic book Glenn?
Does anyone have experience using www.amc.com/livestream for watching live? Does it ever lag out or buffer alot?
Thanks for this. I just set it up on my laptop and it shows 6pm start time for the premier. I'm hopeful.

Oh yeah, that makes sense. I never read the full letter as the guy who wrote it seems like an asshole (without knowing the joke at the end).
The letter is now interesting in another way based on that interaction!
well glad to help if it works out for you.

The idea of someone taking their time to troll post this is pretty pathetic

That is what I thought, but I now know the letter was written by Glenn's actor (back in 2012; Season 2) so my original idea is totally invalid. Although the fact Yeun was joking about getting killed off 4 years later in the show in fun in retrospect.

If I remember right, the actor themself wrote that in. Basically as a wink and a nod that they are a fan, but will be out of a job. Kirkman replied, hence the "can't remember the name thing.
Comic spoilers:
Kirkman always intended for Glenn to die. Originally tho it went something like where Rick would have to kill him to save Carl. It was going to be choice that Rick would have to make, or something along those lines. Don't remember exactly how he intended it but he thought that Rick having to do that was very forced or something. So he invented Negan to do the act instead.
