    ****SPOILERS IF YOU DIDN'T WATCH THE PREMIERE TONIGHT****


    What was so disappointing for you guys? I thought they did a really good job on the premiere tonight. I know a lot of people were expecting Glen to die due to the way that it plays out in the comics. With them having Abraham get killed first I'm sure it made a lot of people expect that Glen was going to survive. I'm so glad they followed through and still had Glen killed as well. I didn't want to see them conform to trying to make the soft hearted people happy. I know they didn't cover a lot in the premiere, but they answered the big question as to who got killed, and the plot can go a hundred different ways now.

    I thought they were about to drag it out even further and then the madness started.

    Loved it. Negan was supposed to be a game changer and that he is.

    I didn't watch it, I stopped watching it a long while back. I just read a spoiler story on what happened. I just can't stomach the show anymore. Just about the time someone gets a moment of peace and get comfortable they die a horrid gruesome death. My downturn in enthusiasm started when they killed off Beth and got worse from there. It just built from show to show to the point I can't take the sick crap of it anymore. Killing kids that are demented to bashing peoples brains out to people getting ripped apart a bite at a time. I just can't take the sick twisted crap anymore, they reached my breaking point.

    Wasn't a bad episode. They probably went to far with gore factor on skull bashing they showed with Glenn and Abraham, and didn't care for the amount of air time that was simply Rick twitching, looking dazed into space. Still looks like some interesting dynamics going forward.

    I think the reason they showed as much as they did was to convey how truly sick and twisted Neegan is.

    Neegan made Rick look like a little girl.

    Neegan had to do what he did. It will be fun to watch moving forward.

    It took 20 minutes of BS to show who Neegan finally killed. The fact that Darryl jumped up and hit Neegan was a joke. What did that accomplish other than get Glenn killed. I know the goal was to break Rick, but to have to have Neegan tell him to make a move before he did it ruined it for me. Next, It would have made more sense to show Abraham getting killed at the end of last year and then Glenn on the season premiere. Like my wife said, they have gotten away from the stories that drew people in and now are going for gore and shock value in an attempt to wow the those that watch. I hope they end this Neegan thing before the season ends so they can move on.

    My wife was a little grossed out by the graphic violence.

    You know negan is still alive in the comics, right?? He's a great character, albeit a sleezebag of the highest order

    Anyone else getting a little frustrated with this show? You mean to tell me they can snipe dudes/zombies at the blink of an eye, but can't hit Negan from 20 yards? Seems like the show is becoming redundant and is losing its excitement.
    Spoiler Alert: Why didn't the preacher just raise his rifle and fire in the trailer instead of waiting to "crap his pants"?
    I'll keep watching, but it's getting kind of old.

    I watch the show because I want to see what happens but it sure is a recycled plot. Then again, so is Star Wars and people still watch those too. I'm not sure what else they can really do with the show but eventually some of the cast will get sick of their role and they'll have no choice but to get to the point and end the show. I'd like to think the end is that they reach some big government safe haven and a vaccine is found for those still living but the show will end leaving the viewer knowing that they'll be tasked with killing off the remaining walkers.
