All Rick had to fight with was a hand cannon. Negan has a wooden baseball bat.

It was a chance to take out his sworn enemy in a one on one setting.
What else could he do but run and hide?

Settle down Sally.

It's because I really love the show that I want it to end because all indications are that the writing is sucking and there is no hope of that changing. And you'll notice I said, I was done after this season. Twit.

Actually I think there is a better than decent chance the show gets a lot better after the time jump.

Time jump?

Yeah remember the opening of episode 1.

Oh, gotcha. Of course, that could take like 3 more seasons...and I don't think it's a real thing, cuz it has Coral in it...more like a fantasy of Rick's...so I don't think it'll happen...

I don't think it will. They are going to wrap this season up with the defeat of Negan and then flash forward.

I'm hoping Coral goes out in a kamikaze bang...could be really awesome.

It's real.

Yeah, but like I said, they had Carl in it...so unless he's somehow going to survive, the "Flash Forward" bit is incorrect.

Meh. Whatevah...

They can't stick to the comics too closely with Coral gone. Next up should be the Whisperers but that storyline will have to change.
What's the plan, have Judith grow up a full on bull dyke like Rick's second son?

Anyone have any theories on the meaning of the the helicopter that flew by a couple of episodes ago?

My issue with last night's episode was the (lack of) craftsmanship. again, the editing was atrocious. It really felt like they didn't have the money or they didn't get the shots needed to tell the story in places. Too many jumps round and leaving the audience to fill in the blanks.

Why the hell was Carl throwing the smoke bombs around?

Also, grenade launchers wouldn't make a house blow up like a gas explosion.

On talking dead the guy said "Carl's bite will play out the way bites play out in the story"

Wouldn't say Carl died. Would be cool if he gets away and tries to pull a Sasha and Negan captures Zobie Carl and uses him on a chain to intimidate Rick and the others for a long period of time. Kind of like a living head on a spike thing. but portable. And a weapon. Negan should devise a plan to have Carl eat Rick.

Well, there's a big time jump in the comics so...it could be both a bit of hallucination and foreshadowing.

He said it's a one-way ticket, but Carl has some work to do first.
