^THAT made me giggle!  ;D

Fun fact: I also received coupons in the mail from Target today that had some sort of catchphrase about hopping on the "gravy train" written on the front. This was literally my exact reaction:

"Saturday Night Live" did a parody of the infamous "Walking Dead" cliffhanger featuring Dave Chappelle playing Negan and the other victims of their demise while mixing in Donald Trump's election.

I was doing something else at the time and only casually watching/listening but wow have those Negan monologues descended into new lows of unbearableness.   And then they keep on going to that well as he proceeds from character to character reminding them who's in charge and blahblahblah.  Of course the showrunners just have to troll us with those close up shots of Lucille in Rick's hands.

I believe that was the point of this episode. Rick is terrified of losing someone else, but everyone else (including Father Gabriel!) thinks they should point back. IMHO it's inevitable that Rick will come around to this way of thinking.After all, this is the man who ripped out someone's throat with his own teeth.

I thought last episode was good but starting to feel the slow pacing. I think 16 episodes is too many. Wish they would drop it to 12 to make the storytelling go faster.  I also feel this way about most of the superhero shows (AOS, arrow, etc)

I watched this week's episode last night.  My stomach has hurt for the past week anyway, and now two Tuesdays in a row of super depressing tv (for me, at least) is probably enough.  Maybe a Carol episode next week??

Season 7 Episode 4

What I Liked

Nothing. This may have been worse than the premiere.

What I Didn't Like

I am not going to focus on all the plot holes. TWD has always had them. So nothing new. Negan, on the other hand, is quickly making a claim as the worst conceived/written/performed character in film and television history. Sometimes, something is so bad that it is enjoyable, or at the very least, funny. Negan is just bad. In Bing, if you type "dictionary bad" you get the following result:

ADJECTIVE

1. of poor quality; inferior or defective

2. not such as to be hoped for or desired; unpleasant or unwelcome

3. (of food) decayed; putrid

4. (of parts of the body) injured, diseased, or causing pain

All of the above apply to Negan: poor and inferior; not what was hoped for or desired; putrid; and causes pain.

Best Line

Whatever the final line was because it meant the episode was over.

Best Shot

Whatever the final shot was because it meant the episode was over.

Random

For 18-49 demographic, the most desired demographic, this episode's rating was the lowest since season 4.

What I Am Looking Forward To

What are you, Worf? Do you tremble and quake with fear at the approach of combat? Hoping to talk your way out of a fight like a Human? Or do you hear the cry of the warrior, calling you to battle, calling you to glory like a Klingon?

Jeepers!  I'm definitely thinking I am not going to watch now.  :)

I guess I can say this now, but i loved the first season and the rest are hit or miss for me.

It seems a bit of a stretch to me. While Daryl may or may not, know Morse code, when was he tapping it out?

Just wanted to say that I thoroughly enjoy your personal episode reviews, [member=3906]dcuodust[/member]!  This one actually made me laugh.  Bwuhahahahaha.

I didn't like this particular episode either.  I almost couldn't get through the full episode in one sitting because it didn't really go anywhere or accomplish anything interesting.  The pacing was excruciatingly and painfully slow, and those definitions of "bad" describing Negan's character development seem... rather fitting. 

I have to admit that I cringe when Negan interacts with the other characters, particularly anyone from Rick's main group.  It seems so awkward (and not because he brutally murdered two of their good friends right in front of them).  Back when the Governor was still around, at least you can feel his despicable nature and how it affects the main cast's fears, strengths, and weaknesses.  With Negan, it's basically "I'm in charge, and don't fight back or someone you care about dies."  It's vulgar and one-sided, and Rick, too afraid to lose anyone else or fight back, becomes and continues to be subservient.  It's not particularly interesting in seeing those interactions.

On a side note, Negan almost reminds me of that guest or family member that visits for a few days, then takes the liberty of extending his or her stay for too long, and ultimately doesn't get the hints you've been throwing around to get that person to leave.  Ha ha.
