How the hell long is Maggie’s alleged pregnancy gonna be?

Now Carl has a five o’clock shadow and Judith is walking and talking and Maggie doesn’t even have a bulge yet.

Damn straight.

I have his wings on my hoodies and my leather vest.

Daryl Rules.

Beth foreshadowed it; he’ll be the last man, standing.

Morgan has been turning for awhile now. I like him better this way.

Who was that bearded guy with Eugene when he was giving the little girl an apple? Was that the former mayor of Hilltop now with Negan’s Saviors?

That Morgan has turned into a bloody killer without mercy

He's become a real badass; from someone who wouldn't kill a human enemy to one hunts them to kill. Saw that tonight when he couldn't pass on by with out killing them. I hear that Morgan will be leaving this cast to join the "Fear the Walking Dead" group.

Damn, Carl has spent the entire episode dying with Rick speaking sweet nothings the whole time. Not going out with a bang, but a whimper.

IMO, Morgan is having a massive transference issue.

His son died because he was too soft to take out his undead wife and now he is seriously over compensating/making atonement.

And as far as Daryl’s “sexuality” goes [because people keep wondering] the WINGS on his back are the key to it.

He seems uninterested in sex, is freakishly moral, habitually maintains a “separateness” from the other humans, openly weeps over the deaths of loved ones, disappears for days and then shows up miraculously, time after time, from seemingly nowhere, to save the day.

Add the frankly impractical motorcycle and you have an avenging angel on “horseback”, wielding divine arrows of justice.

Being an non-book character, he is not constrained by any expected plot, whatsoever.

Daryl is deus ex machina.

Or so it seems to me.

But then I’m well on my way to madness.

My TWD t-shirt collection would horrify you.

The original Old Rick flashback had Another One Rides the Bus by Weird Al.

Quirky foreshadowing, maybe.

Looks to me Ezekiel has over come his loss to wanting to join the real world again. Also looks like Morgan wants to go back to clearing again

"But then I’m well on my way to madness."

A good thing perhaps?

I *hope* they radically alter the Ezekiel storyline like they did for Carol...and apparently, Coral.

If he dies, it will break my heart.

Move north where walkers would freeze. Gas would be useless by now. Where are they getting all this energy? That should be gone by now. Never have seen them coat themselves in walker guts and methodically kill walkers. The women all wear mascara! UGH and Lol!

I admit I am getting frustrated with the plots in seasons 6, 7, and 8. The early seasons were good at showing how bad it would be for city people with no supplies and no real survival knowledge to live. But its been two and a half years at least now, and the stories still revolve around getting basic supplies and fighting other groups. they should be on their feet and be able to feed themselves by now.

There would be a lot of interesting stories coming from learning to trade with other groups, or to go out not searching for food, but finding libraries and getting books with useful information to preserve rather than letting it rot. Or go find a museum with artifacts from the 1800s, that stuff would be useful again now. Learn how to domesticate a horse, make butter and cheese, etc.

The show has also kept technology working that really should be running out by now. Nobody on the show is concerned about running out of gasoline. Maybe the way to beat Negan would be to destroy his fuel supplies, while Rick's team finds horses, and becomes technologically superior with 1800s tech.

Slowly the show would turn more into Little House on the Prairie, but they could still have some action in it. And I think there can be interesting shows coming from learning how to build and create things.
