Cuz being on "talking Dead" is usually "the Kiss of Death" for a character!

For what it's worth, all the characters who have been on TTD the past number of weeks and more are still alive.......Carol, Sasha, the hispanic gal, Eugene, Maggie.........

So it's not a very good indicator....

[Brooklyn Attitude]

“Actually, the current predicament is more Daryl’s fault. Had he not selfishly left the camp on his revenge mission, drawing out the others to bring him back they might not be in this predicament. He didn’t think things through at all. They would have fared a lot better fighting the Negan group from behind their walls. In fact, it looks like Negan was just waiting for them to come out.”

It was also Daryl and Rick’s fault that the truck load of food was destroyed by chasing Jesus unnecessarily. That truck would have lasted them a long time and they wouldnt have been desperate to make a deal with the Hilltop.
Lots of things haven’t been well thought out. The attack on the Saviors, Carol’s leaving, Eugene’s plan to make cartridges without presses, dies, powder or primers, the current Hilltop trip, Rick killing the group’s only doctor, or letting Denise leave the compound unnecessarily, leaving Father Puzzy in charge of Alexandria’s defense, etc.

[circlecity]

"leaving Father Puzzy in charge of Alexandria’s defense, etc."

actually I'm hoping that turns out to be a good decision. The good Father seems to be turning into a solid warrior (like Carol did) and I hope that's the case. But you never know, he could turn out to be the weakling and snake he was in the beginning. These cliffhangers that leave you waiting until next season are the worse part of this show. ;-)

[Hot Tabasco]

nobody on The Talking Dead mentioned the guys with the horses. Who the heck were those guys?

The cavalry......

Good question, I'm hoping they're another community that is filled with good people who know how to fight.....

[Sybeck1]

The season 7 premiere will be the day Farther Gabriel took control of Alexandria. The high point will be finding Enid in the closet.

[Demiurge2]

Right after you stopped beating your wife ;)

[Demiurge2]

Probably it WAS about 10, minus all the ads.

[TomGuy]

Making ‘good’ decisions is a talent that escapes most of the WD gang.

But that is what makes for the intense episodes. How much can they screw up and most of them still survive?

==

The final scene in last night’s episode reminded me of scene at Terminus where Rick, Glen, and a couple of others were captured, forced to their knees, leaning over the old bathtub — Season 5.

WARNING: It is brutal.

[Envisioning]

Well that was brutal to watch. They should have taken on the guys at the first road block.

They should invested a long time ago in some heavy duty military assault vehicle for trips just like this one or at the very least weld a decent bumper on the front of the RV.

[ConjunctionJunction]

The guys with the horses are from a community called The Kingdom. They ride on horseback and wear armor (of a sort) like from medieval times.

[laplata]

I agree with you about them needing an armored vehicle and using better tactics.

From what I read, I’m glad I made the decision not to watch.

The hardcore walking dead fan site posted a slowed down audio and transcript of the beating and you can clearly hear Maggie yell “GLENN”! After the first hit, you can also hear Glenn say “Maggie stay down” Abraham can also be heard saying “Oh Glenn” or something to that effect and Rick is also heard telling Glenn to “hang in there”.

[laplata]

That sounds really bad. Glad I didn’t watch.

Thanks.

Here is the link to the slowed down audio of Negans Beatdown!

[laplata]

Thanks.

[Wolfie]

Rick and the RV group didn’t go out to find Daryl, they had to take Maggie to see the doctor at Hilltop.

[RedMonqey]

I did here the new guy talking about how all of these actors were there for like 15 hours in character acting emotional off camera

Ooooooor maybe I misheard that!(sarc)

Darn my ears aren't as good as they used to be(sarc again)(smiles)

We'll find out next season won't we!

[RedMonqey]

For what it's worth, all the characters who have been on TTD the past number of weeks and more are still alive.......Carol, Sasha, the hispanic gal, Eugene, Maggie.........

Oh their characters will die......

.....Eventually!

I think they(Talking Dead producers) figured out by having their guests show up after their WD character killed off(and announcing their appearance) tipped off the fans that their favorite character would soon be "pining for the fjords"(to borrow a Monty Python line...) So they stopped doing it.

Or have they? Hmmmmmmm.

Let's find out!

[RedMonqey]

Nice buzz kill red monkey.

Take comfort that (my)Accuracy isn't guaranteed.

Otherwise my lottery numbers would always win and I would be in the sunny Bahamas with two hotties typing this response to you!(wink)

[RedMonqey]

The hardcore walking dead fan site posted a slowed down audio and transcript of the beating and you can clearly hear Maggie yell “GLENN”!

Hope they are right. While Glenn is a great guy, Daryl represents rednecks in a good way(and it follows the original story line, which the writers don't always do!.)

Course, manipulating audio can get you the results one WANTS to have.

Kinda like hearing satanic messages while playing "Stairway to Heaven" backwards.I.e, "Back-masking" records which was alleged by some(wackos) in the Seventies.

(I say "wackos because who else would risk ruining a fine record player needle, not to mention an even finer album!)
