They could have done that without showing all the gore - the camera could have panned to the others and showed their reactions.

I don’t even like to see the zombie kills as graphic as they are, let alone main characters - which is why I don’t usually watch zombie, slasher, or other evil spawn type shows.

He’s a nice looking poody tat, Mr. Stripey Pants, but wouldn’t he eat you out of house and home?
I’ll bet he eats 5-6 cans of cat food a day.
And why is it that cat food smells as bad in the bowl as in the litter pan?

I have wondered about the dynamic between the King Zeke
group and Negan’s group. King Zeke is another Negan house
bitch is what we’ve learned. Hopefully he will have at
least one gonad to throw when the time comes.

Thought it was great. Carol is by far the most complex and real character on the show. Melissa McBride is a great actress.

My mistake for being here, from the title “Walking Dead” thought this thread was about Hillary.

Kind of a reboot episode for TWD, going in a whole new direction.

Some of my biggest nitpicks with the show are that they spend a lot of time fighting each other over scraps of the old world, but they don't spend much time at all trying to build a sustainable society in the new world. All the main characters except Herschel's family, being farmers, and Daryl, being a hunter, are completely unqualified to be in the new world. they have learned how to shoot, but they need to learn how to build things that help them get food, water, etc.

This season is a chance to break that. The Hilltop, Kingdom, and Alexandria are each less than the saviors, but together are probably bigger than them. But two of the groups are out of ammunition. Eugene, last season, found a machine shop where he can manufacture ammunition. So if he can develop ammunition, he can supply all the communities, and they can beat the Saviors. At the end of the season they can have a network of trading communities that are starting to make real progress. This is a more interesting plot line than the bad guys of the week, and will be a season worth watching.

I don't think the King is just another bitch. He's just practicing the art of passive resistance - like the underground citizens in WWII who didn't give any cause to question their actions or loyalties while they were plotting and sabotaging the occupying forces.

A smarter approach the Rick, the Dumb A_ _.

JMHO.

I agree. Abandoning one place after another doesn’t make a lot of sense. Pick a place with good possibilities and start to get some sustainability going.

Yes, I liked it. Smart way to go with the pigs for Nagen. Smarter than what Rick did for sure.

I get the passive part but the resistance part not so
much, at least not yet. That is unless one considers
the potentially infected pork that the Kingdom is
providing Negan’s as a former of resistance. And, that
is possible.

My point was that I had hoped that the Kingdom would
have been a more or less counter point to the Saviors
as opposed to a subservient village. The plot line is
what it is, however. The king thing concept would
never appeal to me. My expectations of a leader are
that they would be heavy on leadership and strength
and light on flamboyant side. I would assume that
you and most would think similarly.

While I agree about the typical dumbass `in your
face’ style of Rick, I hope that this Ezekiel is
preparing his people for the possibility of war
with the Saviors.

They are following the graphic novel. This is the story.

Which is a mistake, IMO. What works on a comic book page does not necessarily work in live action. It's like mixing fantasy and reality. Like mixing Loki and Iron Man in the same movie. OK Bad example LOL! Seriously, I though Michonne was a silly character, but "King" Ezekiel really takes it. Just face palming and shaking my head here at this nonsense.

Really? I find her beyond annoying.

“... he’s just practicing the art of passive resistance..”

Last night, I thought, “okay.. maybe the two groups (which don’t have any sort of power on their own) combine to form one power group. The king was very specific in teaching the “young knight” how to fight. I thought it was more than just a guilt desire since the teen’s dad was killed earlier (remember the dad was suppose to be the best fighter in the group). I predict that the dad was killed by Neegan... just a thought. Biding one’s time until the opportunity/planning comes together to defeat an enemy is intelligent. :)

Do we know that eating pigs that have eaten walkers will have any negative effect at all.? As far as I know, nothing has been established.

Corny episode so far ...

It's what happens when you over pander to comic book fans. You get corny by definition.

I think that the story line for this season is just begining and that it will be better than you think. I say just get ready for the ‘unpredictable’.
