Good episode to start out the second half. I've it a feeling I know the group who attacked Rick. I'm growing to hate Morgan. You're one up on me as I don't have a clue. I've avoided rereading any of All Out War so there could be a few surprises for me this season but I don't recall any other large groups showing up until the Whisperers - which those guys obviously aren't because, you know, no skin suits. |

I hope Rosita has a meeting with Lucille coming in her near future. She's becoming the new Sasha.
So, did this new group all import some water from Flint to drink during the apocalypse? Or go around eating lead paint?
I eagerly anticipate Carol finding out the truth and snapping.

I have a feeling my girl Carol is going to meet Lucille at the end of the season. She's my favorite character by a country mile, but once she finds out Daryl, Morgan and Ezekiel have been lying to her she's going to go ballistic. She'll agree to work with Rick to make sure no one else dies, but she's basically going to be doing it as a suicide mission. But she's more than played her part in the series, and if she's going to go she should go down swinging with some kind of epic death scene.

But she's more than played her part in the series, and if she's going to go she should go down swinging with some kind of epic death scene. If Carol dies I will be very very sad. She is one of my favorite characters even though I'm not fond of the current arc with her running away and seeking some kind of pre-apocalypse normalcy. I liked the chameleon Carol who could bake a batch of cookies from scraps one minute and then tell a little girl to stare at the flowers the next minute. I get what they are trying to do but I don't find it interesting. So I hope you are at least partially right in that she finds out what Negan did and snaps back to post-apocalypse Carol who does what is necessary. I just hope it doesn't result in her death. Unrelated - I rewatched the last episode and decided I don't like the Scavengers. They're way too Mad Max: Beyond Thunderdome for my tastes. I could see a group like that existing ten to twenty years after the apocalypse when an entire generation has had a chance to grow up in isolation and develop their own language and moral code. I don't buy it happening in the approximately two years that have passed on the show. |

Sometimes I wonder what everyone is watching, this show has become so slow and tedious it's not even must watch anymore. There's too many people in this show.

I don't know if she ultimately eats Lucille, but my pet theory on what may bring her back is finding out that Negan killed Daryl. I just wonder how much longer Reedus is gonna want to stick around, and it would be an interesting way to write him off. |

It's honestly kind of far fetched to me that Rosita would still be alive in this situation. Her disgruntled, "  the team" mentality is the kind of thing people did early on but not this deep into the show where they know the score. Not to mention, when they do kill her, it's going to feel like a victory for the audience, which I always think is strange (see Andrea). At some point, the writers have to settle on the fact that people who have been surviving this long are either going to keep surviving or tap out. There isn't some angsty teen middle ground where characters are going to stomp their feet and arrogantly try and get themselves killed. Rosita traveled with Abraham and Eugene. She knows what the world is like out there on her own. I just think her entire reaction to this Negan situation is completely far fetched. I get that the show needs inner turmoil, or whatever, but I'm having an incredibly hard time suspending disbelief with her. I'm convinced all of the members of the garbage dump crew are related, so... |

Ugh, I know, it's so incredibly baseless (I say baseless like Rosita actually had character development before this season anyway) and out of left field. Her character is really annoying now; but I don't think she's going to be the one to go before seasons' end; she'll have some bologna "redemption" arc that'll attempt to make people like her again. |

Even to the point where I wouldn't be surprised if she pulled her redemption move and then died at the end of that very same episode. I think the best way to make fans react to characters dying is write good characters and then kill them when it's time. Game of Thrones spent entire seasons telling you how awesome a character was just to kill them at the end of a season and the fans reacted accordingly. I'm not sure why the writers on Walking Dead think they need to make us hate a character before we can like them. That ideaology only works for cool heel characters, so someone like Negan. |

I just binge-watched & I have a question. What did Michonne see burning when she was walking alone? I thought it might have been a pile of mattresses. Any ideas?

They were the mattresses Negan's group took from Alexandria. It was to establish what a prick Negan is in his mind game tactics to break people and make them subservient. |

So far this second part of the season has been more enjoyable than the first half.
