Would have been much better if we hadn't known at the end of last season that someone was going to die. The way they dragged it out and sensationalized it for so long kind of killed the emotional impact for me. But, I am glad that Rick didn't have to cut off his son's arm, AND Negan is pretty fucking badass, so at least that was fun!
Nay_Sayer: “Nothing is impossible if you dream big enough, or in this case, nothing is impossible if you use a barrel of KY Jelly and a miniature horse.”
Just "watched" it...
Damn... that was emotional...
There were a few things that... you know... could have been better thought of.
Negan drives trailer to some place full of walkers.... Negan drives back to patch of forest where lots of people, lots of light, lots of talking and some yelling happen... no walker ever interrupts the party... -.-'
Negan's troops... it's like they're covered in walker repellent. Just strolling around the forest like it's a walk in the park.
It's kinda the same with each new group we see. They start all shiny and clean, as if the past year or so has been bountiful and easy...
I did not expect Glenn to go, but that's what made it emotional... Abraham wasn't really part of the core group... just a relative newcomer. But Glenn.... damn... he's been there since episode 1. He helped Rick out of that Tank... Well, Rick should have stayed in the tank... start it and get going.
Also, still fuming over last season - why the heck did they have to go to that particular place that required going through those guys? Aren't there other directions? Other towns with potential docs? If North doesn't seem to work for 2 or 3 roads... damn... go South! Go back! Everyone knows (and Rick should know it very well) that pregnant women, when ill with some general infection, should not take antibiotics... drink lots of water, lots and lots and lots of water.
And back to Negan's folk... after raiding their armory, they still have guns to spare... high-caliber bullets to spare... everything to spare? Doesn't make sense.
On top of that, there's the whole concept - humanity is failing, genetic diversity is going to the shit.... and you still assert dominance through strength? Through killing some people?
Bad long-term strategy. Stupid way to do things.
Carl Sagan said it better:
"The Earth is a very small stage in a vast cosmic arena. Think of the endless cruelties visited by the inhabitants of one corner of this pixel on the scarcely distinguishable inhabitants of some other corner, how frequent their misunderstandings, how eager they are to kill one another, how fervent their hatreds. Think of the rivers of blood spilled by all those generals and emperors so that, in glory and triumph, they could become the momentary masters of a fraction of a dot."
But I get it, the series is a kind of soft-horror story. The characters are supposed to be scared shitless... 6 seasons of running away from slow-zombies can only give you so much story... go post-apocalyptic Humans Vs Humans, just like all other post-apocalyptic movies/series/novels/etc... don't knock off a winning formula.
I've read that the writer doesn't even want to tell us the cause of the zombie-infection... that would turn the show/comics into sci-fi, he says. And he wants this to be a horror story. The unknown, unknowable, unfixable underlying problem isn't the main concern... the important bit, to him and many fans, is the human struggle, how different groups of survivors clash.
However, the only survivors that seems to have some common sense are our heroes. All other groups are just weird.
I'm not sure that Negan and his gang really care that much about genetic diversity, and perpetuation of the species. They seem more like 'instant gratification' type of people. But, I haven't read the comics so I may be missing pieces of the narrative.
Nay_Sayer: “Nothing is impossible if you dream big enough, or in this case, nothing is impossible if you use a barrel of KY Jelly and a miniature horse.”
Oh, and not to nit pick, but a good handful of antibiotics are considered safe during pregnancy! ? But, I suppose they would first have to determine which type of infection she's got before making a determination about which antibiotic to use. Do you think that type of testing is within their cspabilities at this point?

That would suck.
I don't think you need to worry. It would be prohibitively expensive and/or difficult to film the main character without a hand for the remainder of the series.
