hahahahah yeah the ratings were terrible apparently.

Worst since S2 mid-season finale. I won't get into who they offed, but it ruins so much long-term. Supposedly it was Gimple's choice completely. He's just a moron and is ruining the show. I still love the characters but the plot is absolute BS.

It was (frank)ing awful and you know it. It made zero sense. I despise Scott Gimple, I hate the writing, I am incensed by the nonsense plot holes.

CLEAN HOUSE.

so dumb.

favorite piece of poor writing nonsense:
Rick gets gun.Neagan puts Rick through the window. Rick runs away........with his gun in hand

Gimple does come of as a douche bag. There’s a lot I don’t like about the show now, but I still watch. Getting tired of them always killing off the “moral compass” at the end of each season. This time I’m not going to miss the character they killed off.

Thank god Konecny is being taught the right lessons on the fourth line.

Dont want that kid getting thoughts of becoming a creative top 6 forward.

- flyer_nutter


Babcock has played both Nylander and Marner on the 4th line this season according to Leafs fans. I guess they don't want those two to become creative top 6 forwards either.

That.

And.......*deep breath*

1) Completely avoid HOW Negan and his army escaped, just chalking it up vaguely to Eugene.

2) How did Negan mobilize that fast? What was that an hour or two and they're at full strength like nothing happened? Time makes no sense on this show.

3) Maggie's people didn't fight? They're completely armed and the forces looked equal. That would have made sense. Or escape when they saw them at least. Then Simon just lets her go back like nothing happened, not even under guard. She has like 40 people captured! Whaaaat. They're going to kill Ezekiel though.....

4) The gun.

5) Everything about who they killed, but at least that isn't a plot hole.

6) Trash People, after wasting our time with them, ran away and were in the episode for 5 seconds. Talk about wasting story.

7) Why on earth were Carol and Jerry there randomly to save Rick?! Zero sense.

8) Now Negan has grenade launchers? Those couldn't have come in handy, oh I don't know, at any point recently with a giant zombie horde?

9) Dwight defends the rear exit with like a toy jeep and everyone is like, "K."

10) Look at this guy.



What a chode.

Scotch slows my fingers

However, I pretty much agree with all your points; it was an incredibly poorly written and plotted episode. The only thing holding the show together are some of the actors, it's a great cast. That being said, I'm not really gonna miss the one they're about to kill off though.

Holy poop I forgot that dumb (frank)ing Enid/Aaron plot because it was so inconsequential at the beginning. It may have been the dumbest thing all episode.

It's like 3 years into the apocalypse. I'm pretty sure there wouldn't be a giant liquor truck there from a distillery with a giant roadside sign. Then they just park it randomly hoping they find the Wonder Woman community? They don't even know them! Wouldn't Tara going make some sense? What a forced scenario to have dumb Enid then shoot Grandmama. I'm feeling the tremors again. No. No. Think I'm having a strokeeeeeAHHHHHDSMGk34-0tii23vj29 024n4f4m

They're not. Did you see the character's real dad had a deleted facebook post where he destroyed Gimple for saying he told him he'd be on the show for at least 3 more years before this season?

What it is is they suck at writing and making plots so they go for big wow moments, even if they make no sense. What a chode.

Ha ha ha. Pretty sure the whole trash people episode was an excuse to have Rick run around in his undies.
