The Walking Dead; 7.04 "Service" (open spoilers)

From all this talk about Negan I thought that he was some kind of Great Leader whose minions would follow him into the fires of Hell itself.
But all he is, is an asshole with a bat.

Someone did. But Rick made her turn it over.

That’s true. Michonne had one of the Saviours’ guns, and it was not on the inventory. Still, someone could have cached half of the weaponry elsewhere, and gotten rid of the evidence of their existence, while letting Rick have plausible deniability.

All they need is one person committed to dying to take Negan out. A suicide bomber sort of person. I really think his group would be in such disarray after that, it would be easy to bring them down.

Hey, Daryl. You know how you’re feeling awful about getting Glenn’s brains beaten out, leaving his pregnant wife without a father for her child…?

:smiley:

Actually, I was thinking that. They’re sort of setting up Dwight as a sympathetic character on a redemption arc. And they’ve given him Darryl’s crossbow and motorcycle. They’ll kill off Darryl in a blaze of glory to set Dwight up as the new Darryl.

He even has a “D” name that’s normally associated with rednecks.

Or Dwight tries to be the new Darryl but dies in the attempt to kill/overthrow Negan. Then real-Darryl steps up, coolly finishes the job.

Yeah, AMC is not going to get rid of Darryl; he’s wildly merchandisable. Dwayne: not so much.

What was the deal with Negan taking all of their beds? He’s just messing with them, right? Furniture must be pretty easy to come by in the apocalypse. Mattresses don’t “go bad” and they last quite a long time while being used.

Next week I want to see Negan take all their kitchen tables and one tire from every car.

Everybody knows that used mattresses can harbour bed bugs and other unwanted critters.

Definitely punishment. Are all the houses in Alexandria even occupied?

Wouldn’t work on me though. For some very strange reason I find sleeping on the floor comfortable. Didn’t use to. Weird, huh?

…at the end of the episode I couldn’t for the life of me figure out what Michonne saw was burning on the road. I had to scour the internets to find out they were burning mattresses.

So they didn’t need them at all. It was just to “mess with them.”

:eek: I don’t give a RAT’S ASS about Dwight. He can jump off a bridge on fire next episode for all I care. Darryl is one of the main reasons I’m WATCHING this shit (and what is ‘merchandisable’, anyway? I haven’t seen any Darryl motorcycle shirts or Darryl bath and body wash out there).

New Darryl - Dwight?? - my ass. If that extremely unlikely thing ever came about, I would be out, and all across the land you would hear the sound of tv’s clicking off AMC.:mad:

Damn straight.

They touched on this question in an interview with Jeffrey Dean Morgan.

I hope they flesh Negan out some because he is making me long for the Governor. And that is saying a lot. At least with the Gov you kind of felt like you were watching a descent into madness. Negan is already there, and right now his skill set of witty banter seems like an awfully thin resume. Hell the redhead woman that Carol killed was displaying far better leadership traits than we’ve been shown about Negan.

I admit some mild curiosity how many outrages the writers intend Negan and friends to perform before they are satisfied that we, the audience, are thoroughly convinced that they are indeed this season’s antagonists.

I suspect the next two episodes will consist of Negan forcing the Kingdom and Alexandria to compete in a live-puppy-eating contest. The losing group, of course, will have one random member Lucille’ed to death. Then the winning group will have two members Lucille’ed to death, because that Lucille, boy howdy I dunno…

I couldn’t either. I found out on The Talking Dead.

You need to watch The Talking Dead. They’re always giving away TWD merchandise.

Is Easy Street the most annoying tune in America right now?

On Talking Dead what’s his name said that during the program it became very popular on itunes.
