The Walking Dead, season 8 episode 9, Honor (Spoilers!)

[Baclava]

a long death, well at least he admitted he was a murderer

[PoliticAverse]

1. Is he really dead? Was Rick hallucinating? n/t

[Silver Gaia]

2. He's really dead.

[Baclava]

3. They are really running out of core characters that anybody cares about

All these sideshow villagers can disappear and no one would miss them.

Rumors Maggie is leaving for another series after this season too.

Let's just call it Negan's World and have him win it all.

Rick got an owie?

5. I don't understand killing off Carl from a storytelling point of view,

but I'm willing to wait on judgment until I see what they do with it. My favorite characters are Carol and Daryl, and they are still here, so, so am I. They are MY personal core characters. However, I hope Neegan DIES. Soon. Very soon. I am sick of his stupid grin, his smart-ass attitude, his sinister whistling BS, and most of all, that evil, bloody baseball bat.

[Baclava]

7. Carl's vision of a future peaceful world with no war, I think..... Old Man Rick and Grandpa Negan?

[Silver Gaia]

9. Yeah, I couldn't handle cheerfully, sunny Neegan. Yuck.

Did you watch Talking Dead afterward? It was really good.

[Bayard]

6. Tough episode

We've watched this kid grow up on the show. I really thought Carl would eventually take over for Rick.

At least we knew this one was coming.......killing Glenn was a nasty shock.

Still a fan.....

[Baclava]

8. Only 3 left from original group that started out - Rick, Daryl, Carol

Wow

[Silver Gaia]

10. I sorta expected Glenn's death because I knew what happened in the comic.

I did not expect Abraham, though. I had heard there would be a second death, but wasn't sure who it would be.

It did help to have had some time to deal with Carl's death emotionally before it happened, but it was still really hard because we've known him since he was 10 years old.

I highly recommend to all fans that they watch the episode of Talking Dead that followed last night's episode (Honor). The guests were Chandler Riggs himself and executive producer/director Greg Nicotero. It helped.

11. Saw it

Chandler could finally cut his hair!

He always seems like such a polite, well-mannered kid. Cast say the same.
