EDIT: but I could also see her pulling a disappearing act for a season or so, then show up at another after the plot has shifted
I sure hope they dont save the Jadis/helicopter angle for next season, they've put together a mostly shit season thus far... its time they threw everything and the kitchen sink at the finale
I'm hoping she will regret going easy on Negan, he even caused her to miss her ride out on the chopper...

Interesting angle, and you may well be right... but Eugene looked quite angry and determined to kick out the rounds after his escape IMO
At any rate, lets just hope he gets killed... soooooo tired of his blabbering nonsense

Another interesting take, maybe the writers finally figure out that we're tired of seeing the same old crap, with our crew haplessly bumbling into yet another trap [Reply]
Over the last 3 eps I think they really missed an opportunity with the Rick/Carl/Negan dynamic.
If Negan had been changed by Carl's speech and sent Mullet and co. to offer peace/non-aggression to Rick and then that expedition was murdered that would have been heart breaking. That would have been big.
They played up Carl perhaps getting to the heart of Negan, and he clearly did.
How they've gone forward after that seems like a wasted opportunity to me... [Reply]

What's the deets on Maggie. She has a new show in pilot, and she was holding out for >$$ from TWD/AMC. Then I heard at various times that the holdout was settled, and the new show wouldn't interfere with TWD shooting schedule. Dunno the accuracy of any of that, or the status of her new show. [Reply]
And as has been mentioned, he likely swings the women's camp into helping Rick get out of the impending Negan trap.
Lulz, I honestly didnt know his name, he is just kind of a catch-all for the fringe/newer characters I'm tired of the show spending time on for the purposes of my rants in this thread
But its pretty clear you're right about him getting the beach girls onboard, the writers wouldnt be spending so much time on it otherwise [Reply]
