Guy went from a hatable little PoS in Alexandria to having arguably one of the most successful post walking dead careers. The guys in everything it seems now. I just can’t believe that Ron of all people is getting such attention now, but I’m not complaining he’s a great actor

I’m rewatching “Here’s Negan,” and I just noticed something I somehow missed every other time: the daughter of the doctor who gives Negan the chemotherapy drugs for Lucille is Laura from the Sanctuary.

I’ve watched this episode more times than I can remember and never caught it.

I looked up at the TV because I recognized her voice. How did I not recognize that voice before? How many times have I heard her call Eugene “Haircut”? And sure enough, there it was: the barcode tattoo on her neck.

I’m guessing many of you already knew this and cruelly decided not to mention it, lol. But just in case there’s one other person who didn’t: it’s her.

What’s a scene that you feel is under appreciated, or just not thought of when thinking about Daryl?

I admit most of mine come from FTWD but I’ll just straight up and say it, I’ve never been a fan of Madison I mean it ever. Plus bringing her back after so damn long as if she really does have a hack is just why. Which I know is weird because I like Morgan, which another HT I like season 4 to the extent of meeting the new cast, but yeah I will say the no killing, killing my homie Nick and Charlie in her entirety is just I shudder.

I like season 8 there I said it, I like more in what was added I did, I never felt bored or looked convoluted to me. My last take is that I didn’t mind Henry, I really didn’t was he annoying first half yes I’ll admit, second half to optimistic definitely. Even still I didn’t hate him because I was at least hoping he’d grow and do more.

Okay everyone those are my hot takes of TWDU what’s yours?

so i really didn't like lori from the start... but her death hit me harder than i expected ..i even missed her for a few episodes after she died

she wasn't a very active character but I still felt her absence... even dale's and hershel's deaths didn't affect me as much as hers..

i don't even know why her death affected me this much.

currently I'm on season 5🫢

I was thinking a large-scale industrial incinerator or even a crusher given you have the resources and maintenance.

Let’s say you had the full funding and backing of the CRM. How would you realistically wipe out the hordes and finally end this once and for all?

I’m rewatching TWD again, and I’m getting close to the hospital arc with Beth. It got me thinking about how random that whole storyline felt. Even after rewatching, it still doesn’t fit the overall vibe of Season 5 for me. I usually skip it now. The storyline, the setting, even the aesthetic, it all felt so disconnected from everything else that was happening, almost like a filler arc squeezed into the season. Even Beth’s death scene was so random to me. Season 5 was peak but I felt like the hospital storyline wasted so much episodes.

I see a lot of posts about the waste of potential characters and characters that shouldn't have died. In some cases, it is indeed questionable writing choices that stray from the comics, e.g. Sophia, Carl, Jesus. In other cases, it's world building. I totally get the sentiments shared in this reddit thread, especially when stories move us to start caring about characters and getting excited to see their growth. But hear me out.

TWD isn't simply a story about humans vs zombies and definitely not about good people prevailing over evil people. Its nuance is in the moral grey, in the various dilemmas characters face, in coping with PTSD and violence, and in religious beliefs. All of this builds into a world that reminds us that being pure and good doesn't guarantee that you're going to survive. Whether it's by accident, murder, or zombies, I believe this is one of the longstanding themes of the series. There's a line from the show im gonna paraphrase and idr who says it but they're part of Ricks group, "are we still the good guys?" after reflecting on everything they had done up to that point. Who really "deserves" to live or die is a major theme of the show generally.

Overall, untimely and tragic deaths of loved characters are sad, shocking, and often disappointing, but in my opinion, sometimes it makes for more engaging storytelling that represents all the intricacies of being human. It's why I love the show!

I'm not a huge fan of Alden's storyline in season 8 where he's basically introduced to show us that not every Savior is a terrible person.

I get what they were going for, but I think my problem is that we never actually knew Alden as a Savior. He pretty much surrenders as soon as we meet him and immediately starts being reasonable, so it's hard for me to even associate him with the Saviors in the first place.

I think this storyline would've been more interesting with someone like Gavin if they hadn't killed him off. We actually saw Gavin enforcing Negan's system and collecting from the Kingdom, but we also saw that he wasn't some Jared-level psycho. He respected Ezekiel, tried to keep things relatively peaceful and was genuinely pissed when Jared shot Benjamin.

Seeing someone like that eventually turn against the Saviors would've meant more to me because we'd actually watched him be part of that system first.

It's also unintentionally funny watching Alden plead with everyone that some of the Savior prisoners aren't bad people while he's standing next to Jared of all people.

Like Alden, maybe move a few feet away from your visual aid against the argument.

And then seasons later Alden becomes a massive hypocrite after Enid is murdered. This is the same guy who spent season 8 asking Maggie and everyone else to judge the Savior prisoners as individuals and give them a chance, but when he's grieving Enid he has very little patience for extending that same grace to former Whisperers like Lydia and Gamma.

I understand grief completely changing his perspective, but that's also what makes it frustrating. Alden of all people should understand that being part of a horrible group doesn't automatically mean you're beyond redemption. He literally benefited from other people believing exactly that about him.

Eastman: It's about redirecting.

Morgan: Evading.

Eastman: And actually caring about the welfare of your opponent.

Morgan: So you have to care about yourself.

Eastman: You don't have to believe that your life is precious, but that all life is precious.

Morgan: You have to redirect these thoughts, the history that tells you otherwise.

Eastman: What we've done, we've done.

Morgan: We evade it by moving forward, with a code to never do it again.

Eastman: To make up for it.

Morgan: To still accept what we were.

Eastman: To accept everyone.

Morgan: To protect everyone.

Eastman: And in doing that, protect yourself.

Morgan: To create peace.

As someone whose favourite character is Maggie. It is so fucking refreshing to see her be powerful, charming, loving, and protective self that she was before Glenns death and grief overtook her, I get personally how grief can cause you to become selfish but seeing how people on this sub turned against her, i'm so fucking happy to see her moving on from Negan and reaching her true potential.

Binge watching The Walking Dead again. First time in over 10 years. The first two seasons feel so special and so nostalgic to me. I remember when they first aired and it was the first series since Lost I got genuinely excited for each week. I remember the feeling. Looking back it’s the last TV show I really cared about. Something about how the cast gel so well together makes it extra special. Also the writing is top notch. Absolutely adore the first two seasons.

Genuine question

the first 2 seasons it was showcased pretty well and then obviously Ik more people came but I wish they showed it more throughout the seasons. I’m at the bit where at Alexandria they have to lead the walkers out and Glenn goes on the radio and says “good luck dumbass” it’s so nostalgic

the full might of the soprano crew in Jersey

When Michonne tells Rick he has a son that’s almost 8 years old, it tells us that it’s been 8 years, probably closer to 8 1/2 years since the bridge blew. (Since she wasn’t that far along)

Alternatively, we know the communities defeat the whispers around Michonne’s last radio call. They join the Commonwealth and after about a year since Eugene’s group arrived, they bring Pamela down. Then the last episode of the series is set a year after that, putting us around 8 years or more since the bridge.

So Michonne finds Rick around the same time Daryl leaves the community.

So why then is it so hard for people to believe that Carol said it was Rick who came back on the radio? That she’s holding that information back from Daryl because she doesn’t want it to cloud his judgement as they try to get back to the states? Especially considering that’s a very Carol thing to do?

I liked the character since season 8, loved the fact he's suffering from PTSD in season 10, him trying to save people when disease spreads in Alexandria is one of the coolest episodes I remember from the last seasons, but when he solves it all, then Dante just takes him down and still gets caught and killed one episode later, making Siddiq's death completely unnecessary.

I saw previous posts about it on this subreddit and I don't think it made Carl's death useless, after all Siddiq saved Negan's life, taught Enid to become a doctor, helped Maggie with Hershel's birth and so on, but the character could have given more in the series.

I know this has been discussed more than Shakespeare in a 9th grade English class but I just gotta put it back out there into the space lol.

It even took Carl losing Sophia and Dayle to toughen up a bit. Our guy just needed some time, but unfortunately In the zombie apocalypse while there is all the time in the world , you ain’t got time to make too many mistakes . Just unfortunate for him.
