Glenn fell away from the bin so how did he end up with his head right next to it?!? I wish they would've had the balls to kill off a main character. I feel they should start wrapping it all up soon because it just seems to be a repeat of storylines
That's the one thing that has bugged me. No matter which way they fell, their heads were always gonna be AWAY from the dumpster yet for the sake of the scene they made it look like his head was next to it and he could easily pull himself under.

I wouldn't read too much into it, remember last season when the van fell off the bridge,

I woukd presume that the series will end once we catch up to the comics and the end. (Are they still going )
The Comics are still ongoing with (as far as I know) no plans to wrap the storyline up.

So the show is very unlikely to ever catch the Comic up.

Yes, the TV show is probably half way through the existing comics, if that, and the producers have said they already have things planned through to season 12 while Robert Kirkman has said he has a long life planned for the comic book series.

Glad the Glenn bit is out of the way. It was obvious he wasn't dead with how ambiguously they shot the scene. If it's ambiguous in a tv show then chances are that will be for a reason.

Next episode should be a very action packed affair. There was some great foreshadowing lines in this week's episode which should play out next week. Very clever.

I don't like Deanna. She reminds me of a Stepford Wife. All that smiling and planning a vegetable garden like she has just invented the wheel. While bedlam is allaround them.
Perhaps that's just a coping mechanism


Laugh out loud moment was Eugenes line about him using a machete near people wearing open toes shoes.
You can always rely on Eugene for some deadpan oneliners

Can anyone explain why early on in this latest episode, S6, Ep7 - the Vicar, Father Gabriel is seen walking around putting up leaflets for a prayer meeting..........then later on in the show, he is seen still bed ridden, looked after by Denise (the new Doctor). (when Morgan visits her)..recuperating from the wound he got in an earlier episode when attacked by The Wolves .......bad continuation?

Disappointed Glenn survived. Never been a fan of the character and I feel Maggies character has gone downhill with him.

Do we really need another Maggie & Glenn seperated and their fight to be reunited story so soon after the last one?! Although at least shes been marginally more rational this time round than when she pretty much forgot she had a sister.

Different character. I think the guy Denise is caring for was injured when returning from the herd plan with Michonne etc. I think one of the Alexandrians freaked in the woods and accidently shot him before bolting.

Yep. Completely different character.

Man, you either don't pay attention or think all black people look alike.

The guy in the bed was the one who accidentally got shot in the leg when with Michonne and Heath.

I'm just going to say it since i don't think anyone has so far. I've been watching TWD since day 1 and a fan of the show but this current season is shit. It's just been poor and only Ep2 has been the best episode. It feels like to me they're running out of ideas. There's only so far they can take this show and judging by the quality of season 6 the show is well past its peak.

I'll continue watching but season 5 is miles ahead of this.

Surely you can only have 1 BEST episode anyway, by the definition of best

I know I'm enjoying a TV show when I keep up to date with it, so many shows on my sky planner and getting behind with is growing, but TWD I am just gripped by it and have to watch it asap. The mid season finale look like it will be another good episode.

Everyone that's saying it's not had many good eps so far this season don't realise that there has only been 1 and a half days in the 7 episodes . They can't have pumping action every episode.

I've actually loved this season and feel it's only getting better

Maybe no one else thinks that. I've been watching since the first season and I still enjoy it. Weakest season for me remains the third, and wasn't that keen on the second (though it improved on a rewatch)

Someone earlier in the thread commented that they don't like these episodes that concentrate on one or two people - I love them, I like seeing alternate viewpoints, the Governor centric one is one of my alltime favourites and I felt the second half of season 4 was outstanding. I think changing around the style and pacing can only be good for a show that has, by its nature, a limited amount of story it can tell.

I'm another who is enjoying this season. I too am loving seeing the same situation from all the different view points. It's nice that all of the main characters, and some of the lesser ones, are all getting a chance to be the focus of the episode.

Enjoying seeing 'Denise' in an entirely different role to the exuberant Zoey in Nurse Jackie, took me 2 episodes to realise it was the same person!

fun reading all these "im not gonna bother watching anymore if..." comments, yet you know you still will and will still complain, and those saying its the same storyline over and over, what else should happen? they find a secure place with no antagonists and youd happily watch 16 episodes of them sat around doing nothing? yeah of course you would

Only because she no longer has a sister! I'm sure if she had anything besides Glenn worth forgetting, she would have.

Anyone else think Rositta is doomed next week after her beefed up role in the last ep?

I'm actually enjoying the Alexandria stuff more than I did the Terminus and Woodbury stuff, which both bored me to be honest.

I hope not! She's only just started to become interesting! Plus, you know, she's pretty hot

I do hope so. I watch this show like the grim reaper hoping the walkers get a few of them!

Abraham, Morgan, Tara, possibly Daryl are all drawing my attention as possibles to die as well as numerous Alexandrians - Deanna, Spencer, Tobin, Denise, Olivia, Eric, Sam, Jessie, Ron....could be quite a few of them aren't in the show for too long.

I'd love to see them throw a surprise in and kill off a main character in a way that no-one saw coming but doubt they will.

I have a feeling that Daryl won't make the end of this season.
