This whole 1/2 season I have been really disappointed with it. Caring less about the characters. Still like Morgan and sneaky Strand and Madison. Don’t care if the cowboy dies and really hoping Alicia gets it too. If it wasn’t already renewed I would say it would be history.

Not keeping track of the flashbacks takes a toll.
The timeline is screwed as far as I am concerned. I
need to find Cliffnotes or take my leave.

Agree, the flashback format is making the episode choppy and hard to follow.

Lots of new characters being introduced this season, and as I guessed it early on, the original characters would be getting “offed” in order to make room for a more “Walking Dead” format, since Walking Dead will likely disappear this or next year.

And, like others have already said, this flashback/present storytelling method has been very confusing, and needs to be gone in order to save the program for at least another season.

I’m probably in the minority but I liked the format of the first half of this season. I hated almost all of the original characters and the new ones have added more to the show. The only thing I don’t like is why they didn’t kill the little kid that shot nick.

I wish they would have gut shot her for a very painful death. This last episode I was rooting for everyone to die except Strand, Morgan and Madison. I figure Madison most likely got out.

Madison was a terribly written character. So was Nick.
I don’t blame the actors. I blame liberal Kirkman and his liberal
writers. Most characters were not likable.
And it’s been that way from the start.
I like the new characters and Morgan, but it may be too late
to save this poorly written show.

It was ok for a couple previous episodes, but ruined this one completely. "Spoiling" the fact that Madison was dead, then going through a watered down flashback of how the stadium fell and Madison's death was poor storytelling. Her death had no emotional impact at all despite all the characters crying into the camera.

Thank you. I sure hope the next half is better than the first one.

I don’t want Madison Dead, and have doubts as she was not shown being killed.
The family speculated what happened. Was her being cornered by the dead the family story depicted or us the viewer seeing the all knowing observation.
I was emotionally burned by Glenn’s dumpster save in TWD.

This writer says her death was inexcusable.

Glenn’s dumpster save was so contrived.

She can go join Rayna Jaymes in that great stupid dead gal cloud in the sky. “And don’t let the screen door bump your butt on the way out.” Both shoulda happened sooner, IMHO.
