I honestly don't like how people want everyone to be pragmatic and killers. I get the necessity but at the same time not everyone is the same.

Im ready for Morgan to die. He keeps putting everyone else at risk.
I was excited to see him back, but not so much anymore

As far as I know? There is no link between Eastman and the series.

Why didn't his Sensei use his stick instead of his body to block the Zombie?
I know the show is following the Mentor formula but it's still stupid

I get were the directors were leading us and why Morgan did it.....but still I personally hate that end.
I hear what you are saying, but in this setting it is kill or be killed
Who was there to witness whatever ended up happening to Glenn?
It isn't wrong. You can be understanding, but still find his motives dumb as shit.

but if glenn did manage to survive, i'm sure everybody wanted to see what was the next step for him.
i've got over 6,000 posts, over 100 in this thread, you've read every single one of them?
and I don't know if you noticed but a lot of people seem disappointed with this episode

So Aaron and Maggie going to find walker Glenn
I agree.
I'm only offended because The Knick regularly receives A- ratings, and is the far superior program.

exactly. They showed zombies eating nick's guts who landed on top of glenn! Get with the theories bro!
And a lot of people enjoyed it.
He either remains a cunt, and does something worthwhile.
Remains a cunt, does something super-cuntish.
Remains a cunt, does something okay, dies a cunt.

In terms of the episode itself... it was great outside of one major quibble [how cheese maker died]
The main problem people are going to have I think is that it slowed down the momentum massively.

Comic based speculation:
He's going to gaze into the eyes of true evil(Negan), then THWAK...lights out
Well deserved.

I believe, not liking the direction the character is going
Lol what are you doing konka ?
And it deserves it. Kind of unfortunate that a lot of the reception so far has been misguided negativity just because people would rather know what happened to Glen.
I didn't think tonight's episode would answer it even if it included the main cast. I wouldn't even be surprised if we don't find out by the end of the season, maybe it'll be another Merle-on-the-roof deal.

shit...maybe morgan will be the one to meet the bat instead of glenn

Has to be because he also turtles drawings on the wall and save the Terrapins shirt.
I definitely don't think Morgan is making it out this season either and with the way they are handling the glenn thing (future glenn comic spoilers)
I think Morgan will be the one getting the Negan treatment instead, that whole "is he dead isn't he" card they just played with glenn makes me feel like he's going to live
I like everything about this episode except for the way Cheesemaker got bitten.
I don't buy that an aikido master wouldn't have used his stick to shove the walker out of the way instead of turning his back to its mouth.

that's the thing with a show as popular as walking dead. Some watch it for the very fact that it bring intensity and episodes like this. Some only watch for the intensity and there is even a small minority who finds the intense episodes annoying and the slower character based ones the best. I seent them on the internet.
Need a reference point.
Eastman has largely been disinterested with the TMNT franchise for years. He got back into it only the last couple years.

I think you're right.

I'm not saying Eastman has anything to do with the episode, himself. But maybe the creators of walking dead were paying tribute to him.
I agree, that moment could have been more dramatic but narratively it worked well since it was the guy that Morgan strangled.

Yup..guessing
The Wolf he's trying to rehabilitate will get free and either capture Morgan like he was going to do originally, or bring reinforcements
BG pls.

I like both kind of episodes. The slow ones in particular. But I still think tonight's episode was stupid and unnecessary. Definitely not worth 90min. We already knew the outcome go that story. We got nothing new.
They would have mentioned Laird too. He is pretty much the only reason they are still alive.
They gave Slabtown, the worst episode of the series before this one aired, a B. Don't take them seriously.
It needed to be slowed down. The intensity of the last few weeks is not something you can allow to be constant. It will begin to lose it's impact. It also builds up an expectation that the show itself can not at all begin to keep. We see already that there is a section of the fan base that complain and hate anything that is not constantly action and killing. They love it and that's a little worrying. That's why they watch the show. You can't cater to them all the time or even most of the time. There are millions of other viewers that enjoy a variety of episodes. This is for them.

this is true, but this wasn't the right time to slow it down in my opinion.

Which Morgan understands. But the whole point of this is to show that that Morgan's pacifism is basically his limiter. Its more for him. He doesn't want to slip into "Clear" Morgan again.
That's what separates him and Tyrese. Tyrese just wasn't that guy. Just like Eugene isn't really that guy. Morgan is a killer and he's trying to escape from that. He's like Chris said, an addict.
There's definitely truth in that, but I think there's room for someone that kills zombies but not the living. I liked Tyrees' character. I thought it was refreshing for someone to be on the opposite end of the spectrum of kill or be killed. Like a dash of morality and hope for your fellow man, even when it was painfully obvious certain people need to die.
