Walking Dead

The Dimer

I actually liked this week's episode a lot more than I thought I would. We got to see what they're doing with Daryl's and a good look into how the Saviors operate. Daryl is still unwavering in this loyalty to Rick and the group to the point where it may come back to bight him in the ***.

The exploration of Dwight as an individual and his relationship with Negan did a lot to show what life is like as a Savior. If your basically a dog that follows commands without question life is OK, but dare to have individual thoughts and life can quickly become a nightmare.

Meh... maybe the first episode jaded the f*ck outta me. I'm kinda bored. It was just Darryl eating dog food and listening to bombass music. I think blonde burn face boy is gonna help get Darryl and his girl outta there. Homeboy looked slightly uncomfortable when Neigan was talking about how he slams his "hot" wife on the daily.

Got to see Daryl scowl for an hour.....lots of women like that I suppose...but overall a boring episode. Dwight is just some stoner millennial that used to work at a start-up before the outbreak and hang out in over priced coffee shops. His wife did yoga down the street and probably is bi-sexual. Maybe he programmed in Python too. boring.

Well I don't think that episode needed to be an hour and a half for anyone other than the advertisement agency. They're really banking on trying to build up tension, making the audience question what Negan is going to do next. The problem, is that every time it looks like something might happen they cut to another commercial break. At first I was anxious to know what was going to happen, but after a while I just started to get annoyed.

In regards to the story, I thought it was interesting that Rick and the rest of the group apparently didn't deem it important to tell the rest of the Alexandrians who Negan was, what he did, and what the repercussions for their town was going to be. If someone kills two of your people and tell you they're going to come take half your stuff later in the week, you should probably make sure that your people know what's going on when they come knocking.

Carl also really dropped the ball this episode. If it was one of the other townspeople I could understand, but Carl was there. He saw Abraham and Glenn get their heads bashed in. He knew this guy was serious and then thinks it's a good idea to pull a gun on them?

Michonne going out to practice her ranged shooting, it does look like they're going all in with giving her the Andrea story arc from the comics.

I physically cringe when Neagan b*tches Rick out lol. best part of the show though "In case you haven't caught on, I just slid my d**k down your throat and you thanked me for it." lol! Absolute gold, I couldn't stop laughing.

Lets just get the battle between the Saviors with Negan, against the Alexandrian, Hilltop, and the others.....going. One episode of Daryl torture, one episode of Rick being Negan's bitch is enough.

SgtGoldy

agreed, but that quote made it worth the hour long grind of the episode haha

Well that was a middle of the season episode The Walking Dead if I've ever seen one. Gregory sucks and needs to die so Maggie can take over the Hilltop. He's too much of a coward to be a good leader, but I'm interest to see what happens when the Saviors figure out Maggie is still alive. That news has got to get back to Negan at some point.

Speaking of Saviors, I really like what Steve Ogg is going with the character of Simon. He steals every seen he's in and I may like him even more than Negan at this point.

Carl and Enid should have just run away and left the show. I can't tell if we're supposed to be invested in their one sided relationship or not, and when did Enid get so close to Maggie that she decided she needed to sneak to Hilltop to see her? They got pretty luck finding some roller skates on the side of the road that fit them both perfectly, though.

I missed it too, but reading the recaps, seems pretty boring. Carl skating with Enid, who cares. They happen to find just the right sizes too...ummm okay. Lets have them find a 911 or something, they go joy riding. Or at least a Mustang....then they can run over some Saviors. Mustangs are good at that as we know. Or smoke some weed. Just acknowledge that Carl IS growing up.

So I look forward to watching two shows on Sunday night: Westworld and The Walking Dead. I am not sure how good Westworld really is, but after watching TWD it is relatively brilliant!

Getting tired of these couples love side storeis

I kinda liked the giant tractor and the stuff that happened with that. I thought it was a good episode. I am finding Westworld to be pretty good so far, which I watch right after.
