The rocket launcher moment was hilarious, Heh. Episode ruined by the presence of the daft trash people. And this time they were randomly naked! "Where clothes go? Not care."

Hopefully Rick gets out and just guns them all down.

yeah but why do i think these junkyard people are going to do something to rescue Negan and his saviors from the walkers outside the sanctuary

oh cal solly chick I only just saw this.

basically in the comics Ezekiel gets beheaded and has his head put on a pike, which is EXACTLY what the Savior threatened to do to Ezekiel in last weeks ep

Honestly I don't know HOW anyone could not enjoy Rosita after she obliterated that scummy Savior? MAJOR mood. Such a relief to see her kick some ass after she sadly was put on the sidelines :( (honestly Im so sad she and Michonne disappeared since episode 1 until now but they had other commitments/a baby to have so i don't mind! and after the arc rosita had in season 7 i can't be too bitter)

Quite a slow pointless episode imo

Also not happy the garbage pail kids are back on scene, they can **** off again

One of the worst episodes in the shows history. Pretty much every single decision made by a character was stupid. Rick's plan is working, stick to it. If not, just starve the saviours out. Rosita and Tara have both gone from being potentialltly interesting no marks to incredibly tedious annoyances. Daryl and Michonne are usually smart but are making dumb decisions just for the sake of the saviours getting some kind of upperhand to make the finale interesting. Awful, awful writing. That's before even getting into Maggie's we'll take no **** you've got one chance speech only to literally give the long haired guy a second chance 20 seconds later after he went for the gun. Rick and the trash people..... why? Just.. why. The only saving graces were the acting in the Carol and Ezekiel scene, and Gregory.

Also, do **** off with comic spoilers.

The only scenes I can remember from this week were the garbage people ones because I cringed at everything about it, including Rick waving around pictures to a nonchalant crowd and the scene with Michonne and Rosita in the warehouse which I loved, not really understanding why Rosita gets so much hate - she makes mistakes definately but I enjoy flawed characters.

Gregory is the best thing about the show at the moment... He's so snivelling... It's brilliant :joker:. But yeah, Maggie shot have made an example of the long haired guy. He's quite blatantly not playing ball, and if not killing him, they should at least have taken him away from the others into some sort of solitary confinement.

Michonne has been an utterly weak character since they hooked her up with Rick. Major misstep in my opinion... She was much more interesting as somewhat of a loner.

There needs to be a major cull of big cast members IMO.

Wtf happened to Michonne? She was such a badass. Now she's just...with Rick and is barely shown. Who did Danai Gurira piss off?

Danai has been filming Black Panther and Avengers: Infinity War and Michonne was almost beaten to death last season so they sidelined her to recover.

Christian Serratos was sidelined because she was pregnant in real life but shot on the show.

Oh that explains that then!

Hopefully we'll get to see a lot more of her in 8B

Why's Maggie been pregnant for 84 years

Cos the show has barely moved along in time since she first got pregnant annoyingly

They could have saved so much trouble in terms of characters ageing (especially Carl) if they had bigger time jumps per season. The writers also mess up by writing character bonds stronger than they actually are because it's been years since characters have been introduced but literally months since they've met in the show

Hasn't this entire season been just 2 days so far? That Aaron and Maggie scene about his dead boyfriend felt really out of place, he was talking as if he'd been dead for months

Their time lines have never really worked though, e.g. They've just allowed Carl to have some sort of rapid aging. Like they don't pretend that things have taken longer, the accepted time line is that the apocalypse was approx 2 years ago... They don't pretend that he's younger than he clearly is... He was clearly a kid when it started, but the character is very much a mid to late teenager now - he even has a mid to late teenage girlfriend. They just totally ignore it. He's aged 7 years in 2 years and that's just brushed under the carpet :joker:.

Also I've just read that;

I will watch FTWD again now Maggie Grace is joining the cast. I got sick of it and how it focused on Nick.

"The King, the Widow, and Rick" received mixed reviews from critics. On Rotten Tomatoes, it holds a 33% with an average rating of 5.82 out of 10, based on 24 reviews. So far, this is the lowest rating in the show's history. The site's consensus reads: "The King, The Widow, and Rick" spreads itself between too many storylines, and thereby doesn't accomplish much in the process."

lmao so RT think the latest episode was the worst in the shows HISTORY? get the **** outta here

It was a pretty pathetic episode, it's definitely a contender for worst ever

Tonight's/yesterday's episode was great (but this is coming from someone who liked last week's even though people dislike it) and I'm honestly sad that we're on a 2 month break after next week :( I always found the first half of the seasons always tend to be the weaker of the halves and if that's the case 8b will no doubt deliver :love:

it happened two years ago chick!! Don't get too damaged x

Not feeling these episodes AT ALL

yeah me neither. What the actual **** is the story with the trash people storyline, it's ****ing stupid

I thought Eugene's storyline was quite good... though he needs to go now, IMO. Trash people as always were trash.

Also I'm not sure what was supposed to be going on at the end? The way I read the situation was that Eugene had decided to be self-serving and basically was lying to Negan about their chances outside / being able to make more ammo, and just wanted the Saviors to plough a path out, so that he could escape himself. But the empty yard at the end? Are they saying that the Saviors are OUT, or just that all of the walkers are IN? Because neither make all that much sense... if the Saviors shot their way out where are the walker-bodies in the yard? And if they went in... surely there would still be at least a few stragglers wandering around outside? :think:

You can bet your bottom dollar that the Saviours have gotten out, we still have more than half a season left :laugh:

saviors have gotten out i think, and now the rick & jadis Alliance isn't working anymore either, cause of this failed plan


so i'm thinking

Laughably bad writing again. The final scene made all these decisions even more stupid.... Daryl and Tara went through with their ridiculous plan to save waiting 1 extra bloody day!? Negan needs to just purge everyone except for the King next week.
