To be honest it's kind of crazy that such a dark scifi/fantasy show has become a top rated show. It's bound to have haters because it's not supposed to be for everybody yet somehow has become mainstream.

Good Lord, maybe the reason Rick doesn't get killed is because he's the FREAKIN STAR

I mean I can understand their reaction on some level. I felt like vomiting during that scene, and at a certain point was thinking, " why am I putting myself through this? I don't need this."

...but I'm sure I'll keep watching.

Agreed. When I was watching the group kneel I thought how awful it was but at the same time I kept thinking they did kill 7 of Negan's people via RPG and deserved to be punished (Negan's thinking). I think a lot of viewers either didn't care or forgot about that storyline.


Negan probably doesn't even know that Rick's group is responsible for those. By my count the Alexandria crew has killed about 40 Saviors.

8 on motorbikes
25-30 in the raid on on the outpost
the 4 that kidnapped Carol and Maggie
2-3 when Denise was killed
3 or 4 killed on the road by Carol and Morgan.

Wasn't there a truck that drove off in the background after the RPG was fired? Maybe that was a different scene but I thought someone got away after the attack.

You're right with the number of folks the Alexandrians have murdered. I'm surprised Negan didn't kill them all.

In Negan's mind, he probably thinks that if you got killed by Rick's group, you weren't a strong asset and deserved to die.

It also probably shows how many people he has under him that he can allow so many of his "soldiers" to die.

Negan definitely plays the long game. A real "CEO" type, unlike The Governor.

Allow them to legit cuss, show full female nudity and have no commercials.

But they wont. lol


This week was a 17+ in the ratings. I'm looking forward to comparing it against next week's numbers.

I say it won't be below a 13

Exactly. Fans want a show that isn't inclusive and get pissed at the people who won't watch it because they feel excluded.

Some of these people complaining about this show will still continue to watch it. What else do they expect? It's a show occurring in a post zombie apocalyptic world. There have been countless instances in which a zombie's brains were smashed out yet because it's two well known characters this time around it's "too violent". Freaking cupcakes.

It is completely crazy that they can show a guy's eyeball popped out of his head but not a woman's nipple.

I know, right? I don't remember any kind of outrage when our heroes hacked/bludgeoned a bunch of terminites to death. Hypocrites. It is all about 'my team.'

Uhhh they literally display a very detailed mature content warning before every episode.


Not only this but before returning from every commercial break they display the warning again.

So, what do you do if you're Rick?


I know that this wouldn't make for a great story line, but IRL you just leave, right?

Why stay in the area? Take your boy and hit the road.
