Last week was slow, but this week picked up quickly. Ed Harris is awesome, Hopkins really turned itup, and Evan Rachel Wood is running away with an Emmy.
This week picked up for me when he froze all the robots with a wag of his finger and said "we debated whether to let you in".
There's something big planned...
$5 says Dolores is the one to stop him too - out of an act of humanity.
I knew what was going to happen months ago so the spoiler stuff doesn't bother me but anyone in the future would be kind enough to just bracket your post between [spoil][/spoil ].
The first episode was good, wasn't too sure about JDM but he seems to be a great fit for Negan. I'm just getting burnt out on the show though. Seems like they're gonna milk it for all it's worth with some great episodes followed by tons of filler where the plot doesn't advance at all. The fake out Glenn crap really bothered me so I was glad to see them at least take out Abe too even though he should have had Denise's death. I'm all for wiping out main characters frequently to keep you on your toes.
I'm pretty much up to date comic wise but I'll still tune in to see some of the other characters and story lines that aren't in the comics.
Whatever happened to Aaron's boyfriend? They showed him in the first or second episode where we met Aaron back in season 5 and he's never been heard from again. It's not like he died or anything, but we never saw him around Alexandria. Never saw him like at the meeting when Deanna considers exiling Rick or during the huge walker herd attack at the midseason of season 6.
It's almost like they used that to cover their tracks for Aaron and Maggie not having any kind of thing together. It almost seemed like they had a moment and were getting close when they were in that tunnel during Glenn's fake out death. He also seemed consoling towards her in last night's episode. And then now people will be starting to think ''Oh wow, might Aaron and Maggie be an item?'' they might be able to think back to two years ago when Aaron was shown to be gay and have a boyfriend. A boyfriend who seems to have vanished from the Walking Dead universe with no explanation at all. There was another character that was in an episode and vanished. I believe it was supposed to be Deanna's son (the one that died on the run) or maybe it was Nicholas's son? Whoever's son it was, the father died either way and the kid was never seen again.
I really like Lauren Cohan, she's perfect to me. I like how she's not overly and fakely hot or oozing phoney sex appeal, like some other celebrities.
Aaron's boyfriend Eric is back in Alexandria as well as Spencer, Deanna's son. Rick left Spencer in charge when they left to take Maggie to Hilltop. A lot of this stuff gets lost cause like you said it takes forever for this stuff to develop episode wise but real time it's only the next day after the ASZ was over run.
I know Spencer is still alive, but didn't Deanna and her husband (forget his name, Reggie or something?) also have another son? I forgot his name, but I vaguely remember he and Glenn throwing fists and I believe he was killed when they went on that run. The same run where Noah got caught in the revolving door and devoured by the walkers. I thought he got stuck something? And they couldn't get him out before the walkers got to him and devoured him. I believe that was one of Deanna's sons?
I think he had a young child who was shown when they got there, then we never saw him again. Much like Aaron's boyfriend. Or that boy was Nicholas's son and not the other son of Deanna's?
But since these characters have not been shown again, I guess that's why they were written out without being written out. Because it's hard to even remember who they were.
So Hell in a cell was good. Could of been better if the weird finishes were whipped clean. New day and Charlotte. The bs DQ was BS Shemus wasn't the legal man and was out of his corner. The Female main event was great till the finish. Didn't mind who won but the finish was ****.
Chris Jericho looks a million dollars. And his face doesn't look like a wrinkly prune like the other "Old" guys that are around his age. Triple H has at least 10 diagonal lines going across his forehead and Batista has a beat up and saggy looking face like a shae-pei. Same with The Undertaker.
He also has one of the most popular gimmicks going right now. This guy just gets wrestling.
