Just a heads up to folks, still really kinda lost after this one, and can’t quite put my finger on one singular thing that’s causing it. But to those leaving questions that are going unanswered or thinking I haven’t watched any interviews with Andy, Danai & Scott, I have and I likely discussed what you’re asking during one of the 8 videos I’ve made on this series so I encourage you to watch them all fully through, especially the discussions because I go exceptionally in depth on my thoughts & opinions regarding EVERYTHING. I need to step back from TWD for a little while though, so I will come back in time & respond to any questions that I haven’t already discussed in any other videos, but other than that, I think I’ve gotta put the lid on this one & walk away because I’m not trying to rain on anyone else’s parade. Those of you who loved it, please keep loving it ❤. - Jack ✌🏻
Which is why Okafor stood up for Rick to ease Beale’s suspicions about him but didn’t fully trust Rick regardless. It’s fitting that Beale last words are “ damn Okafor!” He caught on that Okafor set Rick up for this moment in particular and set Beale up to be overthrown.
What's funny is certain fans didn't listen to danai and Andy when they said its a love story that focused on them. Folks so wanting it to be about the other characters when you was told from the jump its based solely on them two. 😂
That's what I'm getting. Basically setting themselves up to be disappointed because they complaining about sex scenes, when this series was presented as a love story. People should just stop having high expectations and go into a series or movie with an open mind, you can't have your own perspective on things and how it's suppose to play out then get mad when it doesn't go your way. The actors said this show is about Rick and Michonne. The CRM would not play a big role in this series and they are not completely gone, they will eventually spread to other parts of the other spinoffs some other way because the CRM is huge. They spread throughout the country into other states and other areas around the world. We already got a show dedicated to the CRM anyway, World Beyond. Also, Beale wasn't really set up to be the next big bad guy, the CRM as a whole is the biggest threat which they very much still is. We might get an endgame type of reunion, get every main character back together for a final fight with the CRM maybe. I think that would work better.
Yeah there's been a bunch of corny romance cliche moments throughout the series and it's fair for the viewers to not like it, but the fans set themselves up for disappointment... can't call the episode bad for delivering on what they said the show was gonna be about tbh
People forget that this isnt Walking Dead Season 12 its Rick and Michonne's story it wasnt meant to build up the world or build up other characters it was to put and ending to their story which it did. Was it done perfect no but in the end it did its job i could 100% seeing them doing a final season 12 of the TWD after the spinoffs are concluded.
This will be long sorry. Basically you don’t hate the episode, you just hated that you didn’t get what you wanted. Watching your videos, you’re a big fan of TWD, but you somehow missed Andy, Danai and Scott constantly saying that this was a love story between Rick and Michonne to wrap up their story? It wasn’t to world build, set up other spin offs, introduce new future big bads or to drag on the show for another 25 seasons. These people are getting older and have lives. It was to focus on giving some closure to fans and these two characters. Maybe the other spin offs will come up with something to further the franchise. The CRM still has other bases and agents in communities, that could be something. Ignoring what the creators told you about the focus and purpose of this show and expecting TWD season 12 confuses me. The creators told you what this was going to be and what their goal was and they accomplished that.
@@MR-ly1rc That’s fine for you. I’m talking about @Jack’s World. I get just watching and being disappointed a prediction didn’t come true, but for those that very much knew what this show was about? It’s just confusing to get so crushed and negative about these characters wrapping up the way they did. I mean, Andy and Danai left the first time for a reason.
I agree and I guess most people didn't watch the interviews with Andy and Danai leading up to the show, they clearly said this was it, the end to their story. They didn't seem that eager to even make this, Danai said her sister urged her to give us an ending and then she convinced Andy it was finally time. Andy said many times they need to finish the story for the fans and this is the end to their story.
You wrote fanfic in your head about what you wanted it to be and what you wanted to happen instead of just watching what they gave you. Your disappointment stems from yourself and your unrealistic expectations. Sorry but that's on you, not the writers or creators of this show. They did exactly what they said they'd do from the beginning.
I really enjoyed the finale and season overall. The ending made me feel like this was it but post finale interviews have hinted at more to come so we’ll see. Grateful we got this tho.
Yeah Savannah, but the prosthetic hand could have helped him later on in the fight against the walkers and then if he wanted to throw it away, go ahead.
Exactly. It was a symbolic action. Plus, in some unreleased footage, he had a prosthesis more like in the comics, a kind that would be more functional for everyday life.
This is what Gimple said "I don't want this to be the last of Rick and Michonne, and I have all sorts of dreams on what we do next. Right now the're just dreams, just fan fiction. But we do have a good track record of dreams coming true" This is the kind of stuff he said when behind the scenes he was preparing for S1. in my other post I stated where they could begin if they are planning on a S2
The issue for some TWD fans is that they create their own narrative and are disappointed when their theories, ideas, and predictions don't match the actual story. Everyone is customizing their own version instead of taking it at face value.
It's kinda crazy but understandable to me that ppl would be mad at how Beale and the CRM were dealt with. You knew it was almost the end of the 10yrs of military reign & time for the CR to take over. ALL the corrupt leaders were in one place and Michonne can make use of bombs. They never needed to fight a huge war they needed to get rid of Beale's private force that did his dirty work and wiped out innocent ppl. Okafor said in ep 1 that the majority of the military wasn't aware or apart of the mass killings. Plus by end of the episode, what’s left of the military is now ran by the CR’s council and they’re gonna use that as a force for good.
Not only that, Terry O'quinn is in his late 60s, this is a VERY physically demanding show and there were MANY famous people during the _'height'_ of the show that just wanted to be 'Walkers' on it... no credits necessary! Terry now has both 'Lost' and 'The Walking Dead' in his acting credits. We forget these people are NOT THE CHARACTERS THEY PLAY. They don't want to do these particular roles for the rest of their careers. This mini-series was about RICHONNE and ending that _loop._ Daryl is about ending the 'French Connection' loop. Personally, I think 'Dead City' will bring an end to the *Negan loop!* If they really want this to be a *STAR TREK* type of franchise they HAVE to get to *THE NEXT GENERATION* which will mean leaving the _original cast_ behind. Notice they keep filming OUTSIDE of Alexandria... that's because that _CONTRACT_ is over and that neighborhood has gone back to being a neighborhood. Even if they did do some type of 'gathering' later on you will have fans talking about KEEPING IT GOING! *LET IT GO ALREADY!* Watch whatever they produce until they decide it's no longer making them money... that IS the bottom line. Even _Star Trek_ goes into hiatus routinely.
He did a great job and served his purpose. Who is to say he even wanted to return to a season two? He probably took the job because it was a short season.
Were you really defending that they were going to save a "fair" amount of the kids? 10% isn't really a fair amount and excusing the deaths of 100,000 others for that fair amount is a little odd
Right. I'm sorry dude, but this who wasn't for you. At any point. And they did tell you. Countless times. ' A love story', 'epic romance'. There are plenty of people who read that and went 'yay let's watch that' (and loved it til the end) and it felt like from the start you were disappointed and determined to not like it, if your chorus of disappointed 'Rick!'s were anything to go by. What gets me though, is that Terry Quinn, your fave, great actor that he is, has the most lines this ep. Like, after R &M in the Danai episode, probs more screen time than Danai. Allll that, just for the TWD fans who love the war side of the fandom over the human one as kind as they are to do that - and stilll not happy. What it did show however is that the CRM has a desk-based despot in charge who only kills things nowadays though a fence and gets his kicks for asking people to swear on a war relic like himself - just for ornament. In the end, he was a figurehead, but also a dude, capable of being run through with a sword - as is the CRM which they were stupid enough to put in once place. And did I hear you say 'they weren't going to do that to all the kids', dude? Really? 'Martial law' 'delays to freedoms' 'take their resources' not enough for you? They told you they had to go time and time again and you just...ignored it It was a brisk episode and I admit that may be a preference but I love that shit. It MOVED. Felt like it was happening in real time. And plot holes where? Rick pulled out the pin of a grenade on a walker CRM soldier and hid behind their bodies, what's hard to understand about that? This show is about love conquering it all (yes, even when they were 'wasting time kissing' as you put it, nvm they had 8 years apart and know any moment could be their last) - even over tyranny and dictatorship. Andy and Danai have said countless times: *we* love, exec produce, showrun and write. it. I'm sorry that you won't let yourself enjoy it but good luck and happy trials I guess.
🎯 To another perfect post! ?Terry O'Quinn, a gifted professional of his caliber, was aware of what he was getting into because he faithfully captured every aspect of his character that you mentioned. Of course, a pre-promotion scene with Thorne and an additional scene with Okafor would have been nice from a plot point of view with Beale. Given his terrible leadership and genicidal, long-term plans, Beale was never intended to be a long-term character. Nevertheless, it was amazing to see him as a walker!
Well said. What's more, it's funny how people are missing that they said they would save 10% of the children. So, unless I misunderstood them, the CRM was destroying the other 90%. I'd not go along with that either. Nor would I even if they weren't because other people had their societies that worked and no one had the right to come and destroy them. What's more, a military rule is NOT the solution for a new world. Quite the opposite, in fact. What Michonne and the others set up was the answer. Further, yes, as someone who's thrown a grenade or two, grenades don't do what the movies usually show them doing, taking out huge areas like some video game AOC effect. So, right, if Rick covered himself with three or so armored people while wearing armor himself, he could be at least somewhat shielded.
I'm with you Jack. It's all a bit surreal. I've wanted this reunion for so long. But seeing it last night, like you I have to let it sit. I tried not to set high expectations for what might come after. I did want a merging back to the original characters they left behind but I'm not sure we'll get that now. Look forward to more feedback from you soon. Happy Easter from Ireland.
Remember Euegene's lie about his plan with the others he was so called affiliated with...."fight fire with fire. It all sonds pretty badass considering...". Beals speech briefing with Rick reminds me of that.
This was a perfect ending to this specific story, they just opened up the world to so many different story lines, it was important when they said they have crm spies throughout the continent and world
This is a great ending, but is it really an end to Rick, I don’t think so. I do believe we will see a Rick and Daryl reunion. I’m 90 percent satisfied. I will be 100 percent when we get a proper reunion. But I can’t lie. I was cutting onions at the end with Judith and RJ. I’m so glad Rick and Michoone made it out alive and back home
Jack I was on Facebook last night before watching the episode and a story flashed up with the bloody ending before I'd watched it. Argggh. But I'll write my comments for your reaction after I watch it. Enjoy the show.
there is just no way that's gonna be all. they can NOT forget about Morgan, Elizabeth, Silas, Heath and Mason. these characters have a big important role for the future
Sadly I’m almost 100% certain they will never be doing that because Robert Kirkman has come outright & said that he never wants to have to “reveal” that or introduce a cure, but I get the desire for answers. I personally think it would be really cool if while not able to find a cure for it necessarily if it expanded upon the information given in world beyond, and our other spirit shows allowing us to continue to speed up the decomposition of necrotic tissue, that would be awesome!
No they didn't say they were going to save a fair amount of the kids. 10% of the kids is not a fair amount, that's leaving 80% of the kids to die with the rest of the people they were going to liquidate. I really have a feeling you didn't actually LISTEN to what they were saying. I feel like you are one who agreed with all of it, even the stuff that Beale said.
After I saw the last episode, this made my heart sad and I cried until my tears came out because Rick returned to his community and was together again with his children. And also this episode shows us a clip of what Rick's story is from Season 1 to 11 and that's what makes me goosebumps. And Michonne Is An Awesome Character On The Walking Dead And I'm Not Sure Whether There's A Season 2 Or Not But I Can Just Wait If There's Not That's OK There Are Still Other The Walking Dead Stories Like Daryl Dixon Season 2 because We're Still Curious About Darly Dixon's Story In Season 2
I'm still hoping they'll surprise us with a season 2 announcement that will begin with Rick and Michone reuniting with Carol and the rest of the group 🤞
Loved all the little call backs to the flagship show so much especially last episode with Michonnes "M" necklace we met her wearing in S3. The cat was a great callback for Michonne this episode too. The stuffed bunny was a interesting one as it's now the 3rd time it's been referenced; 1st with little Lydia in the basement bunker when Alpha killed her dad and again in the subway with Daryl when he found the note on the $ from the kids who could no longer wait for their dad. Damn this show was amazing, if there's not a S2, there still HAS to be more!! The reunion with the kids was great and superrr emotional but I NEED the reunion with Rick & Daryl!! (OH! I definitely now wonder if Carol did actually say Rick was back in Daryls show??? HOWEVER I can't see a way Rick wouldn't be right there with her searching for Daryl if he had returned by that time. That's his brotherrrrr!!! ❤
I thought the same with Rick and Daryl but I thought of two scenarios: what if it was Rick who sent Carol to get Daryl or by time Carol was leaving out she got the news that Rick returned and she was heading out by the time Rick got back (my theory)
@mp6640 I mentioned that in another comment, it definitely makes the "..ck is back" seem more plausible that she said Rick. BUT...1. I feel like damn the man's been gone almost 10yr and the wholeeee reason Daryl's outside is to look for Rick...wouldn't that be the absolute 1st thing you say?!?! "Omg!! So glad to hear from you, come home Ricks back!!" Like it was aa afterthought who ever she is referring to. 2. There is NO WAY Rick wouldn't be right by Carol's side (Michonne too for that matter) now searching for Daryl. After all "It's just the shit they do" 😉
I agree w you, I want there to be more of Rick being the character we love and we most def need every reunion with every character especially Daryl. They have too!
It’s so refreshing to get this honest reaction and so I feel I’m not the only one who felt the same way you did. I had a prediction that didn’t end up happening that I convinced myself would happen during the briefing. A shame, but at least the other episodes were great
Merciful my azzz thorne got what she deserved same as Beale. Instead killing communities he should've been killing the walkers. Folks keep forgetting the bad soldiers where the red stripes the ones in Philly had no idea what red stripe soldiers do just like Okafor said. He said swear on sword but don't let it take. They got home to their kids which is what they wanted. Folks so nickpicking everything when it's a love story for them not nobody else or other characters and them getting to their kids. Usually in a love story there is sex. As long as the loyal Rick and Michonne fans love it that's all that matters. The Crm is not gone only the bad part. Daryl show and maggie show has nothing to do with the ones who live thats what Folks don't understand. It was all Bout getting home from day 1.
you right, but, I guess thats just not really what "folks" wanted from the reprisal of rick, a character who has been around for 14 years that we love, yes I do really like rick and michonne and their relationship, but if this show is over where rick will most likely not be on screen for anything but a cameo I wish they just came full circle on a few more things. yes we were all informed this was a love story and for a love story its good, but rick is where the whole show started before they could give us enough plot to be able to deviate into a total love story. hes an iconic character, like i said they did a good job on the love story part which was its main focus but thats just kinda upsetting for what they could have done in so many other ways. I wanna see everyones face when they see him and hear him talk about all the shit thats happened as well as let us know what the future might hold for them. But instead it looks like they closed his story, which is why I wished for more
I mean to be fair you get what you get, and 2 it's up to the show runners/writers what to do with this series, they don't need to give you/us what we want, they do what they want
@@gregkrueger331isn't this series like the highest rated out of the spin offs? I guess they're doing something right. You can't please everyone. I loved it
I was actually waiting for your reaction cause I think we were on the same page. I also think it was a teeny, tiny bit rushed and agree that they didn't sit in the final conclusion enough and imo the writing all around dipped the last two episodes. Maybe 2-4 more episodes would've helped and would've given us a little more time to flesh some stuff out, given us more time with some of the great side characters. With all that said...it was advertised as "an epic love story" and they did that. I'm happy that they're both alive and reunited with their kids. I don't think AMC were going to spend money on any of the beloved characters just for them to reunite for 5 mins at the end. Overall great series and definitely better than we've had in a good minute imo, but I think the last two episodes kind of dampened it just a little bit for me. Gimple, Gimpled the finale. I'm somehow satisfied tho lol. They deserve a happy, boring life, so who cares. I can see either or both Rick and Michonne making a cameo on the Daryl Dixon show tho (I think he's getting three seasons). and I'm fine with that.
It was rushed, but overall, a solid show. I can't help but believe they'll bring back Rick in S2 or S3 of Daryl Dixon for a cameo because Carol says, "Rick came back."
I believe there will be a s2... There has to be at least some survivors and major ones too, not to mention, I'm waiting for him to know what happened while he was gone, and I need Daryl to see Rick again.. And I definitely need NEGAN to see him again! Theres so much to give! 😍
Based on this ending I suppose it's safe to say Morgan's story is also pretty much over now due to the fact that finding rick is as simple as going back to Alexandria. I always sort of knew he wouldn't have much left to do as a character but I did enjoy his story so it's a little sad to think it'll be cut short like that.
Overall, I'm satisfied, but I knew you'd feel disappointed Jack and I'm sorry for that. I do think there could be a some form of group show/threat in the future. Heck, maybe it'll be something linked to Dead City and that's why that's set so far ahead, as we don't know who the big bad could be then and with it being further forward there's no issue with Cailey looking a lot older etc. We know Rick and Michonne are back at home and if they are ever needed to be brought in later then that could happen. I also do think we'll get a Daryl/Rick reunion in at least that spin-off, as the actors are so close and I think Andy will want to give the fans that moment, so I do think there are possibilities for the future. I loved this series, but the finale did have its issues. Completely agree him leaving the hand as a symbol was dumb and Rick is smarter than that. I did want a bit more of Thorn rather than just her having a change of heart at the very last minute. Lesley Ann deserved a bit more than that. Some of the montages weren't needed, especially the ones during Beale's speech to Rick. A couple felt OTT and broke the pace of that scene for me. Would I have liked more Beale? Yes and no. It would've been cool, but I'm fine with what we got. Was it a bit easy removing the elite CRM? Maybe, but I think it worked for me because (a) the base wasn't where all the military was, so was isolated away from the others/Philly; (b) it was only a smaller group (he'd given the briefing 2533 times) and they were all congregated there ready to commit mass murder of a city. But for the conclusion of the Rick/Michonne focussed story, I'm satisfied and I loved the ending. I thought it was beautiful and didn't mind RJ's line, as it felt fair that a kid would be a bit awkward meeting someone who he hasn't met before. Unlike Judith, he doesn't have memories to add to the emotion, whereas he had more emotion seeing his mum again. Also kudos to the composers, as this score was beautiful. I thought the performances throughout were great. They brought in interesting characters and Danai and Andy were superb. Andy in particular really reminded everyone what an incredible actor he is, giving such a nuanced, layered, emotionally complex performance across these 6 episodes. Just exquisite work from him. So, overall, I'm happy. It was the ultimate ending I needed for Rick and I'm okay with it happening now, with the door open for future appearances elsewhere in this world. Anyway, that's my thoughts. Hope you're well. It's been a long time since we were both on those late night Zooms on the Duo crew channel!
I wished they’d cut out the scene of Beale and Rick talking at the fence where Beale said he’d talk more with him later. That would have given us a couple of more minutes of reunion at the end. We already knew Rick was getting the echelon briefing so that scene wasn’t needed, imo. Beale’s monologue at the private briefing could have been a tad less, too.
I agree!! I'd been thinking the same thing. It was redundant. I think they kept it because they needed that part with Thorne going there later. But, maybe they could have been more economical and combined the scenes.
Kids have access to the internet. Why would you or even the vlogger feel it necessary to criticize a child’s acting? Leave the kid alone. It’s like looking at a kid’s artwork and saying hey why can’t you paint like Picasso? He’s 8.
Saying you’re not allowed to criticize someone when they don’t perform to the standard they should be on a stage this large is silly, if you’re putting some random kid in an art gallery with the best of the best & just trying to pass off scribbles as Picasso, yeah that’s wrong sorry lol. If it’s your own kid at home sure it’s fine but if you’re put on a stage & with the best of the best, you gotta measure up
@@JacksWorldYT I just want to point out that when they record these scenes they record multiple so that they can edit the ones that work. This was the best take they got out of this kid
@@JacksWorldYT again I think that’s too bad. You started your account at 14. I imagine you’ve grown since then. The actor didn’t hire himself. Perhaps criticize the casting director or director for not getting the most out of him but to criticize a kid online for what? What would you like for him to take away if he stumbles upon this review? I can imagine being online as a kid you probably received a fair share of criticism and I’m sure it didn’t feel good. At least as an adult you are in a better place (I hope) to handle it.
I feel like this series ended beautifully. It was first and foremost a love story. In that vein, I do feel the reunion should have been longer. It would have felt better if there had also been a reunion with Daryl, Carol, Maggie, Eugene, etc. I think those who aren’t into love stories, or were not actually Richonne fans, that this ending fell flat.
Wait Beale told Rick that there were CRM spies in selected communities throughout the continent and the world so does that mean that the CRM knew about the communities in New York and in France oh yeah and now that The walking Dead, Fear The Walking Dead, The Walking Dead World Beyond, and The Walking Dead The Ones Who Live are completely finished does that mean that Dead City and Daryl Dixon are possibly going to be the total and complete end of all of The Walking Dead series or do y'all think there'll be more spin-offs
Jack, this is not the last time we see Rick Think about it. Carol told Daryl someone is back before they lost reception during the Daryl Dixon. Carol is out looking for him. I bet any amount of money that we will get a reunion with Rick and Daryl. Yes this is the one season of TOWL, but it’s not the end of Rick. They will give us a proper reunion at some point.
Great finale.. super rushed tho! And my main question is.. where did that second sword came from, because michonne has on on her back.. I mean… but I did loved this episode!
Just seems a bit too convenient that The main explosion just so happened to leave he Michonne & Thorne unharmed. Not to mention the fact that Rick also seemingly forgot that their entire supply of chlorine gas just exploded & he should be struggling to breathe & hacking up a lung like Michonne & the crew in Ep 2 🤔
@@JacksWorldYT Rick had his nose and mouth covered, plus, the tarp and the water protected Rick and Michonne somehow. But Thorne, I don't know how the explosion didn't get her, it was right in front of her.
Every time they stop and kiss it’s like wtf guys I get it but..move!!!!! lol sad to see Terry go, there’s definitely more they could’ve done with his character. But that reunion though 😢
Ignore the hate this wasn’t a bad take at all as someone that has binged everything in this walking dead universe I was very much under the impression that this would be the start of somthing but now we are here it feels like we are at the end.
Totally agree with the rushed af ending. MAYBE 🤞🏼 we will see Rick again in Daryl (Carol's) show or Dead City...I'd rather an additional 6 episodes "putting bows" on alot of the things that seemed soooo important throughout the 5 shows. •why have Beales son be a big deal in WB when he's not even brought up in conversation?! Especially while talking about what Rick did to save Carl. •Why drop the info about embedded spy throught the US AND the World if they don't elaborate at some point? (Although now that the 3K "bad CRM are dead idk what they do now/report too) • What about Morgans exit?!?! His last last line?? To not complete that story would be a HUGE miss!! There are others but those really have to be addressed SOMEWHERE. I would honestly enjoy like the 6th ep to show how they all coexist now at least. EP 1-5 were INCREDIBLE but 6....It just still doesn't feel COMPLETE. 😢 (Sorry for my long @ss comments) Jack you know how much I value your input ❤
Omg 😢 I ended up pausing the show 4 times cuz I couldn't take it, I had to go vent 😢😂😅 and then I would go back and watch. However I'm trying super hard NOT to expect more because I got exactly what I NEEDED and that was Rick and Michonne getting back to RJ and Judith! But I don't care, call me selfish but I NEED more and that would be nothing less than them all around the table again...with EVERYONE together! I have expectations about this! Sorry, not sorry! ❤
Completely agree with your points, I enjoyed but was disappointed towards the end. The first 4 episodes were brilliant, grounded world-building, great dialogue and set up a lot. Then the final 2 episodes stumbled with too much plot armour, poor pacing and a decline in dialogue quality. An extra episode or two would have done wonders
Not gonna lie, this felt rushed. It's a shame that they decided to kill off Beale since he was so hyped up for about 3-4 years and we just saw him for 3 episodes of this season. 😒
This is not the end There will be a season two Do you honestly think they would have ended their series “rushed” umm no They did it this way so people would be surprised when they announced it imo
I didn't like the finale either, theirs plot armor and then there this. I'm convinced someone could hit them with a bazooka launcher dead on and they would survive unscathed.
We've had JUDITH the whole walking dead series since season three, we've only had RJ for a short time, then the main show ended. so there really wasn't much they COULD do with him. Plus he's just a little boy so, what do you expect. They didn't do much with Judith when she was little.
Yeah I feel the same. Happy that we got Rick reuniting with his family but the whole CRM storyline feels pointless. The most dangerous organization in the world that kills people left and right and is about to create a new world destroyed by only two people. ( I know it's only military that they killed and civic republic is still a thing but my point still stands ).So basically the CRM storyline was sacrificed for Rick's happy ending which he deserves but still. Also good that they will not milk their product any further with season 2 of this spinoff but we still have two spinoffs to go through... very weird order they decided to finish the walking dead.
I'm gonna say it again: Y'all fanfic writers are PARTLY (some of it was impatience) how we got a terrible last season of Game of Thrones. Because the showrunners were so obsessed with not following y'all's fanfics on Reddit and the like, they did things as contrary to that as possible and screwed the whole thing up. I'll take a united team's very intentional vision to tell a singular story over a thousand different ideas from people who've never acted, written, directed, produced, or anything of the like--namely when it's as high-quality as this. What's more, this show was largely for people who love this union. And they understood the assignment the creators were given; thus, they were satisfied with the show. Finally, they ran out of budget. So, they had to prioritize what was important -- as well they should! They knew what they had to do and did it with the budget that was allowed. Now, if they come back and make these characters appear in something else, I don't want to hear anything from y'all. TL; DR: This story wasn't about the CRM, the others, the walkers themselves; it was about Rick and Michonne getting back together and home to their kids, getting an ending they deserve. Period. They did what they intended.
No one has said that they couldn’t have accomplished what they planned, and did, while ALSO not ignoring every other potential aspect of the universe for people that were watching for more than just a ship
glad im not alone, the show was not this lame with the story when it started, thats why "we" all liked it. they focused pretty well on the realism of it and it was a good thriller back then. and I get they had to expand the story as they made more seasons, and jumping forward honestly the craziness of the CRM introduction was a risky but cool fresh thing the show could have introduced and did a little more on it had more potential than that.I liked their relationship but that shouldnt have been the full focus becuase of how long this show has been aired. truly feel like andy just got a fat ass check for this and can now finally live in the UK with his family and not have to fly to the US for months at a time. but hoepfully come back occassionally for some spin-off cameos that will most likely be a cornball let down lol
Yes, he believed because he’s a child and children believe things like Santa Claus, the Easter, bunny, and the tooth fairy. It was a completely appropriate thing to say.
I agree with you on how its cookie cutter but i will say when you think back about it the walking dead has always been kinda cookie cutter atleast recently anyway, i've always expected this kind of predictable story with this show since like season 5 but ive watched it for so long I just enjoy the characters and im still starstruck happy just to see Rick again, whole show could honestly just be him fucking around in the woods killing walkers for 6 episodes and id be cool with it. Idk if I wanted a happy ending, but I will say im glad rick got his happy ending at the very least since I love his character, but there was definetly alot of wasted potential in this for ricks story and the entire story imo. they seemed to be more focused on us watching rick and michonne fuck 12 times each episode lol, he didnt get laid for 6 years if he was loyal but after the 4th episode im like ok i got the message I wanna hear you guys talk about something else lol all and all liked what we got with this show, who knows what more we'll see in the spinoffs, but I do feel left wanting with this one, judith and ricks reunion was the best part. and great reaction aswell u got my sub
What was the point of Morgan saying he was going to find Rick? At least The Ones That Live wasn't nearly as bad as Fear the Walking Dead. What a dumpster fire that show was! Wow!
@@KCohere33 this show is done, TWDU is not done. Am we already know this. What we don't know yet is if there is gunna be a season 2, prolly not. But this isn't gunna be the last we see judith and rj. Idiot
Leave Antony Arzo (RJ) alone. I really wish y'all would stop the stupid bullying of a child actor. It's low class. Besides, Danai adores Antony as well as Andy.
If you haven’t noticed, RJ had always been a calm and sweet tempered kid. Besides that, he had literally never met this man before. Of course he is going to be a bit awkward around Rick, if that’s what you mean.
*_Baby don't stop 'EXPECTING' from your shows. Just be realistic. This was really only about 'RICHONNE'._* Manage your expectations. We know that Judith doesn't know that man from 'Adam' either! She was a baby when he disappeared. That boy should have been more SHY about meeting him. *Andrew played his role to a TEE! But that's because Andy's a real DAD.* The kids were a little unrealistic. A normal kid would have asked him, 'Dad why didn't you come home?' How does Judith not feel TRAUMATIZED? She almost died and Mom wasn't there! But this wasn't about them, it was about RICHONNE and the fans who wanted to see Rick with his kids. I am one that's glad they brought that Arc to an end. Yes, I'm 'Richonne' but I'm also a 'Sole parent' who wouldn't have left my baby to go look for no man! This isn't totally 'realistic' because it's a TV Show... one about ZOMBIES! 🤣 I do agree they could have put more time into the REUNION itself. Be blessed.
tf you talking about 😭 what dumbass kid asking why dad didn’t come home?? they know why😭 nothing judith said was unrealistic yall making shit up to complain about
complete writing trash. Rick and Michonne survive an explosion that kills everyone but leaves them uninjured. Then rick survives a grenade in his hands. CRM destroyed in 15 minutes of an episode. Then the talentless, emotionless reunion at the end........utter trash. Even more perplexing is how soo many people in the comments are ok with this. You have been fed shit and told it was sugar.
This felt wayyy too rushed for me and just a huge waste of a great character in beale and just waste of a group in general SO MUCH potential like they built it up to be and they go destroy it in 1 fucking try flawlessly … TWD is unrealistic but this was not even close to believable the writing was just not it in my opinion… Happy to see rick with his kids tho but even that scene felt rushed like they wanted to get it ended fast
This was so disappointing, and it was obviously predetermined from the on set that they where content with the, and excuse the pun " Pollyanna " ending.there were SO MANY ways and avenues they could have taking this series.Although , as fans know all too well how The Walking Dead executives have the ability, AND HAVE REPEATEDLY PULLED the rug out from underneath our collective feet, it just once again leave me feeling like they really missed out on a great opportunity, one that as a steadfast fan, I believe we deserve ...end of rant...still loved the series 🥰
This isn't the last time We see rick theres still crm outposts left and I won't believe rick's story is over until he dies hopefully not anytime soon tho.
