One of the most boring premiers that I can remember.

Also sheet metal is bullet proof in the TWD world.

I swear to god... this show.

JUST SHOOT HIM

You're telling me that 20 guys with automatic and semiautomatic rifles pointed 100 feet from some lanky dude with a wooden club is not enough to kill him? Is this show purposely trying to insult us at this point? After 10 minutes of stalling Rick finally got the idea to open fire with his SMG and yet somehow didn't hit a single bullet? Full auto. Maybe 30 rounds. And somehow Negan is unscathed? Either he's an olympic sprinter or everyone on the show is so malnourished that their fine motor skills do not enable them to hit targets at musket range. These "survivors" make storm troopers look like cowboy gunslingers.

And let's not forget that embarrassingly terrible scene with the priest and the weasel. That had to be the most contrived sequence of events since... the shootout scene five minutes before. And once again, what are you waiting for? Shoot Negan when you see him. Jesus.

It's becoming a chore to watch this show.

What made the least sense for me was none of the Kingdom's group dying in that first 'ambush'.
Even if you ambush them back, the very second you open fire the Saviors will do the same.
Yet somehow not one of them got a shot off.

At least Daryl is being badass or just cold this episode. He truly doesn't give a shit.

I only hope something of value actually comes out of not killing those Saviors this time around.
Otherwise it's just telling us again how unpractical and stupid it is to take prisoners in this kind of war.

Christ either AMC is super cheap or the writers even more lazy than I thought. They are actually rehashing a storyline for the fifth time. First it was Rick, then Carol, then Morgan, finally Gabriel, now it's Jesus who doesn't want to kill.

Also one of the fighters was just firing at a brick wall an no windows or anything shattering.

Same shit with Morgan. This is what, his third time becoming a crazy psycho killer? Like this dude just can't be normal. He's either a peace loving Buddha or Jack the Ripper.

Also, something that's been bothering me for an absurdly long time is just how many saviors there are. Rick and Co. kill dozens of them every episode and there are always more. How is that even possible? How did they: (a) manage to gather up 1000 survivors and individually recruit them all when as we've been shown, it takes days/weeks to break people into becoming Negan's men (Sasha, Eugene, Daryl...), and (b) how the fuck do they manage to support that number of people?
If the kingdom, alexandria, and the hilltop have only a few hundred people together, which includes women, children, and elderly, then how on earth do the saviors get enough resources from them to support 1000 or more fighting men? That just makes no sense from a logistical standpoint. I haven't read the comics but - is there really that many saviors in the source material? It honestly seems like AMC just keeps adding new ones just so that Rick and Co. have more people to kill.

Also I love how they wanted to execute all of them. "They're bad people!!!!" As if every single one of them is a psychopath and equally responsible for beating Glenn to death. Maybe, just maybe, some of them are just survivors that joined a group to..... survive? You've got like 20 hardcore dudes there that have made it this far in the apocalypse and could be extremely useful after the saviours are gone. But no, execute them.
