Discussing the show and past episodes is fine. Do not put things that have happened in the TV series in spoilers. However, don't spoil things from the books that may happen in future episodes. Put book spoilers in spoiler tags with a CLEAR WARNING that it is from the book.

I don't think most people would be much less upset about that ending, but I see your point. In the context of their explanation, I would imagine they would say something along the lines that the whole killing someone needed to be known.
I was just hoping to have it be part of the discussion when it fits though, so I'm not going defend them beyond that.
Why? What exactly does it add to the discussion that random fansite X didn't dream up. Especially as the cliffhanger doesn't make any sense in the context of concluding one, and starting another story. In that sense, Morgan's cliffhanger makes far more sense, but hey, they completely fucked up both is cand Carol's storyline by making it tediously boring, so nobody cares about them discovering another group.
As far as a this story ending, it would be better if they actually finished this story by showing who died in it. That would conclude the chapter. Now they have a loose end. And as for the buzz, fairly certain the internet would have been abuzz all the same with discussions about whether they killed the right character.
So yeah, when directors have stupid ideas, we don't need another stupid show to tell us about them.

Different people find different parts of the story interesting but that's whatever. My point was just that we don't have to go "wtf were they thinking!?" every episode. Sometimes they just come out and say it.

People can disagree on how well or poorly they tell the story they are trying to tell, the quality of the story itself, etc... But it's not as if it's a mystery.
For example Negan and the cliff hanger caused a lot of controversy, but they have their explanation. People can like it or not, but it does exist. Seems it makes more sense to at least take into consideration what they think, even if the conclusion is "they are dumb" or "it's just PR/spin".
Point taken though stealth on them not asking some of the tougher questions that occasionally pop up here regarding more significant discrepancies.
Here's a bit about the cliffhanger
"We're gonna deliver something fantastic!" That's a bold claim and I'm critical and hyped at the same time about it!
I rewatched the first two episodes and noticed how much smarter and agile the zombies seem to be. The girl picks up the teddybear, using the doorknob, almost climbing a ladder, jumping on the tank, climbing over the fence and using a boulder to smash the store entrance.
Can't remeber any of the newer zombies doing anything beside walking. Even the newly killed ones seem to be instantly brain dead. But I'm not sure if any of the newly killed had any opportunity to display their intelligence.
i read a little the wiki comments and someone said red haired army man will probably be given the stick coz apparently he posted something like "had fun working with you" on twitter then deleted it. there are a couple of characters who would take the smackdown like that but i doubt glen would be one of them in that state. black woman X but then we just got saved from a relationship with the blonde mom a few eps ago (or was that the end of s5? time flies when you scroll...). or daryl.
now what to watch? i guess i can check out one of the super hero series.... the punisher or something ?
any suggestions? i do like my post apocalypse stuff, i know there's a number of tv shows where they take a small community of people and put them in post apocalyptic/isolated scenarios... any good?

Kind of sad that they became so slow and stupid.
I'm perfectly fine with this. It's boring just watching them run away from zombies for 6 seasons, and even in real life they'd become less of a threat once you get used to them.
Having the show focus on the post apocalypse politics and interactions is leagues more interesting.

Personally they can make any conflict work, the main issue being that more often than not you have filler. I personally liked the prison infection episodes for example because they made it feel more real. Plus Hershel is a badass.
As predicted the Lucille victim has apparently been leaked now AMC is threatening to sue anyone speculating on who it is and if their correct could be sued and taken to court.

This is fucking hilarious now.
Smells like a load of shit given it's the internet age we'd know if it was leaked. Clearly it's just some fake bullshit rumor, which gets people like you believing and claiming that you predicted it, if it's so leaked then are you willing to state who it is and then we'll see if you're right.

Daryl is in the trailer. Right behind Negan when he's sitting down and chatting. Unless they edited him into the trailer just to screw with people, he didn't die.
