Don't talk about previews or casting changes here, thank you.

I"m sure there was another Lydia here. I remember posting the words to the old song "Lydia the Tatooed Lady" when the former Lydia appeared here.

Are you thinking about Breaking Bad?  That song was Todd's ringtone for her.

I love how the distance between Alexandria and Hilltop is entirely dependent on how far the plot needs it to be.   Here, it's a two-day trek by horse and wagon.  Yet once upon a time, Carl and Enid ro

It really chaps my ass how the Kingdom is in ruins and Michonne refused to respond to Ezikiel's letter for help. When the Saviors were first introduced, they had a somewhat amicable relationship with the Kingdom (as amicable as possible considering those assholes) and Ezekiel only reluctantly got involved in the war. Coming to the aid of Rick with his "Alexandria will not faaaaaalllll!" War cry.  I really hope we find out what happened between the communities to have Michonne turn her back on her allies.

I think so too, well we will remember as TWD continues.

With this fondue and grumpy bear ho ho ho story it feels like these guys are really not getting that Negan is never going to be redeemable to a lot of people and being cutesy with the actor isn't making it any more palatable.  That's a problem going forward.  Yes, it's a show where nearly everybody has done some pretty bad things and walked it back but this is a character who's raped and murdered and tortured people for funsies because he got off on it without an iota of remorse.  Cute stories with child actors are going to fall flat.

This show's making me tired.

Very well said. 

I found it offensive that Negan got to have a moment to reflect on the exact same spot where he butchered Glenn and Abraham.  That's sacred ground and he shouldn't be allowed back there.  As you said, there's no walking Negan back.

To be honest, I thought JDM's story was a bit creepy.  Him walking around in that outfit was the exact opposite of cute.

And it's going to have to be a GOOD story.  Yeah, who am  I kidding.  There's no way on earth I'm going to buy that Michonne would turn on her friends just like that.  Not unless she suffered some sort of brain injury or had a psychotic break after Rick 'died'.  And even if Michonne wanted to go against Alexandria's allies, why would the rest of the community follow her?  It doesn't make any fucking sense.

They've been doing it in increments - Negan all shocked and horrified at Simon's murder of the Ocean group's men, showing him all in a sad bag over the demise of Coral and seeing him acting human with Jadis. How about a flashback of him throwing a doctor into a furnace alive? Ah, memories!

OF COURSE NEGAN GETS DOGS KILLED

Wait! The dogs were killed? Are they trying to make us think a pack of big dogs would be killed by one stumbling skeleton? Is that it?

ETA: What am I talking about? A tiger went down easily by those same walking skeletons, so of course a pack of dogs are no match for one walker I suppose.

I missed what they were talking about on TTD but the dogs were crying like they all got knocked down in one shot by a single walker which makes no sense.

I'll bet the rest of my bottle of Finlandia that the folks whose hearts melted at Negan & Judith together aren't so much "viewers" as they are producers writing fake letters.

There is no redemption for the asshole who slaughtered Big Abe simply because he was the biggest/strongest of the bunch.

YEah, that asshole killed our Ginger because he was not only bigger and stronger than Negan, but defiant as well and Negan has always been insecure. No one who is not would swagger around, bragging about the size of his dick.

considering the pigs from the Kingdom can take down walkers and eat them, 3 dogs should be able to take down one walker

One of those dogs, especially the Rottie that weighs more than the walker, could have torn the corpse to pieces in minutes. I know this is horror/sci-fi (or used to be) but I hate it when they do stupid, illogical dumb things like that which insult our intelligence and make me wonder if the writers have ever had contact with the outside world. Hmmpphh

True, I wonder if the writers think that we are dumb.

Cosign.  He bashed in sweet Glen's head in front of all of them.  Irredeemable .  At least the Gov knew himself that he couldn't be assimilated or forgiven or whatever. "Not after Andrea" were his own words.

Yes. He was filled with self-loathing and remorse but knew he couldn't change. Negan remains a cartoon character, the kind who gets hit over the head with a sledgehammer and walks away.
