I had no fucking clue who Morales was, had to go and look him up again afterwards.

wtfux, did john wick go and train everyone, especialy morgan
Why is no one picking up fully loaded weapons? I mean, seriously. Morgan had two guns. One ran out of bullets, and he keeps going with only one gun, which is probably half empty at that point? You just sniped two guys with fully loaded automatic rifles. Take one at least, ffs.
i thought morgan was gonan start offing good guys in his kiling rage once he exited the building.
Season premiere was widely panned, 2nd episode of this season has the lowest ratings since season 2. Wonder if the honeymoon's finally over.
A common complaint about this show is nothing happens, and there is just episodes (or even seasons) of nothing but character development. But, to me, the character development is what makes the show interesting, and allows for the action payoff to mean something. Two episodes of what amounts to 99% gun battles is, to me, nothing happening. The most consequential character to get so much as injured is Aaron's boyfriend (Eric, I think?) who has had maybe 10 lines the whole series. I don't need characters to die to keep it interesting, but if there's a multiple episode long gun battle, there should be consequences.
If this whole half season is one big "All Out War" and a never ending stream of gun fights, I don't think I'm going to make it through this season. There's got to be a balance between the two, and the Walking Dead frequently misses the mark on that.
Well put, Byrd. At this point, I'm asking myself "can the walkers please win?"
All I remember from these two episodes was a lot of wasted ammo, Morgan can't be killed and goes on a murder spree, some friction between Morgan/Tara/Jesus, and Negan & Gabriel are trapped in a trailer or something, where Gabriel may or may not be wearing his shittin' pants. Tiger ex machina too, I guess.
How long are they going to develop characters though? Pretty sure we've seen every angle of Rick and Co's personalities. The show had one moment where we were introduced to a larger world and that was when they met Saviors and then we were back to pissing contest between the tribes.
Maybe I am alone on this, but I think there needs to be a larger overarching environment, like remnants of old government, army, other militias introduced, to keep the show interesting. Because when reading books and watching TV series, I was always excited to see that after every encounter or conflict, the group learned that there's a bigger picture to this whole mess they are in.
No crisis of conscience Daryl is the best Daryl
So last season Morgan was all like “all life is precious” and this season he is all like “gotta kill them all”
Did the writers just not care and 180’d him?
This. Plus there's mixed messages from Rick's camp. They tried to hammer the idea of "kill them before they kill you" in to his head, but then Jesus wants to take prisoners all of a sudden. Logical thing to do would be to kill the opposition until Negan is taken out, then see which side they're on. Jesus only added a new problem to the mix.
If anything, Rick is the inconsistent character in this. Also felt like the Morales scene went on way too long. Just a quick scene of him explaining his family died and him threatened Rick then have Daryl kill him. Felt drawn out and pointless in the end. Still the better episode of the season, so far. Hopefully gets better up to mid season finale.

Nah fam, I think the Morales scene where he tells Rick they are pretty much the same and then Daryl killing that one dude after after Rick promised he wouldn't is pretty clearly leading to Rick having another crisis of conscience to where he has Negan beat and has the chance to kill him but he decides not to.
Morales was drawn out because I doubt the actor would come back for a 1 min scene.
Do you guys watch the show on mute?
He was in Rick's group for like 2 eps in season 1. He was with the group before Rick found them. He left with his family though.
