MID-SEASON FINALE, Y'ALL!!!!!!


I do not like these jump abouts. They are really annoying. Rick and the Heapsters are at the Sanctuary. The Dead have been stacked up. How in the world did they do this.  The Heapsters have run away, and Carol and Jerry have rescued Rick. Back to Rick and Carl talking after they left Sidiqq at the gas station. Carl says that there has to be more to this life than just killing people. Now, back to teary-eyed Rick. With theses flashes of main characters, I'm beginning to believe one of these guys is going to die tonight, and Negan is on the move. It won't be Rick, but Carl, Carol, Ezekiel, Maggie, and Jerry look to have their heads on the chopping blocks tonight, but I think Gabriel is definitely dead as well. 

This is an awkward conversation between Enid and Aaron who are on their way to Oceanside. Where is she going? Liquor? Judith had gotten way big. Daryl thinks their trapped worked, boy is he in for a surprise. Carl is writing a letter to his father. Now, Carl is alive in the comics, but I'm thinking he is not going to make it through this episode. Tara thinks it worked, too. She is wrong, too. Aaron was injured by Cindy's grandma, and Enid shot and killed her. So, I think she is going to bite it tonight. Carl is trying to go to the sewer. Negan is now at the gate. Michonne can't believe the Saviors got out. Rick is no where close to Alexandria. Rick, Jerry, and Carol are driving toward Alexandria, and Jerry's car was just hit!!!! NOT JERRY!!!

Ezekiel is reading Jerry's letter about leaving, and now the Saviors are at the Kingdom looking for Ezekiel. Who has bounced in a hurry for someone with a bad wheel. Now to Maggie and Jesus talking about the Saviors surrendering. There is a tree in the road. She knows things have gone bad. The Saviors have them trapped. Daryl and Tara have messed it up for everybody. Oh, no the Saviors have Jerry. What is in this box? Freaking Simon. Can he die already? Dang it, Daryl. Carl is saying let them have Alexandria...for tonight. This is so messed up. I hate the Saviors so much. Ezekiel has disappeared. They are taking some of the people to the Sanctuary to clean it, the others will stay to continue producing, and the Saviors are moving into the Kingdom.  

Don't hurt Jerry!!! Surrendering their guns to Simon, or they are going to kill Jerry. I'm so sick of the Saviors always coming out on top. Now, Carl is standing up to Negan, telling him that Rick is not there. Carl is giving himself up. He just said kill me. Carl does not want to die, but he says he'll sacrifice himself for all the others. The Heapsters have escaped with their dump trucks. I don't know what is going on. Dwight and another Savior. Now, Carl is gone, and the Saviors are blowing stuff up!!!! (Side note: Khary Payton is going to be on The Talking Dead, and I'm not happy about that at all.)

Sometimes, I think that I'm not cut out to be a fan of The Walking Dead. I really get tired of all my favorites dying. Carl may have gotten hurt during the bombing. Back at the Kingdom, they are looking for Ezekiel. He is asking them to give up Ezekiel, and he is giving them 5 minutes. Eugene helped them get out, and now they are leading the herd. They killed Neal in the back seat?!!! Maggie is standing down, and she asked for the box. I can't with this mess. 

Back at Sanctuary, Eugene is waking up at midnight, and I would like to feel sorry for him, but I don't. Spineless coward. Where is Carl? Is he still inside Alexandria? What is he doing? He almost got blown up again. Tara, you and Daryl, messed up. Y'all messed up.  Daryl and Tara's group have ambushed the Saviors. The female Savior has figured out it was Dwight. Daryl, Tara, and Michonne has taken out the convoy of trucks. Carl has made it to the sewer. Negan is headed to Rick's house, and he wants them to bring him Carl unhurt.

Where are Carol and Rick? What the freak is Eugene talking about? Eugene drugged the guard to help Gabriel take the Doctor to Hilltop. What is Ezekeil doing? HE has set off a bomb and is leading his people out. Carol arrived just as he was locking the gate. He told Carol to save the people. He has been knocked out though.  Maggie is back at Hilltop, and she just capped a Savior, because of what happened to Neal. Well done, Mags! Shut up, Jesus. I feel really bad saying that. 

Tara and Daryl have guns trained on Dwight. The female Savior got away, but she is going to tell Negan. Dwight can't go back He wants to come with them. Maggie is sending the Saviors a message in a box. Wait, Morgan is at the Kingdom gate. The tool in charge is threatening to kill Ezekiel. Michonne's crew is back at Alexandria. Wait, what is Michonne doing? Rick is back at Alexandria. He is looking for Carl and Michonne, but he finds Negan and Lucille. Rick and Negan fighting, and Rick just got away. Michonne is slicing her way into Alexandria. Michonne is chopping the the living crap out of one of the Saviors. Carl got the majority of the people to the sewer safely. Carol and Ezekiel and Morgan are still alive. So is Eugene. Gabriel is barely alive. Carl is bit. He got bit in the woods when he saved Sidiq. Seriously, The Walking Dead?! All of this was for Carl, now he is going to die. I'm drained. I'm so bitter right now. Seriously, Carl has lost so much, now they are going take Carl, too. I'm just...UGH...Guys, enjoyed it, I'll see you on February 25th. Good grief...

Dead Viewing: Season 8, Episode 7-"Time for After"

***WARNING***

***There will be spoilers.***
***This is not a review. It is just my thoughts as I'm watching the show.***

Remember, I'm just writing what I see and reacting.


Of course, we begin with naked Rick in trouble again, because he trusted the stupid trash people again. Jadis is photographing Rick for one of two reasons, she still wants to sleep with him or for ransom. So she could sculpt him? What else did she say? I hate her. 

Eugene breaking out the KWL chart, must have minored in English. Eugene now telling Dwight to stop the back-stabbery. Eugene is a mess. BTW, what is happening with Gabriel, Eugene? Eugene just wants himself safe, he claims he's Negan, but just told Dwight, he will keep his treason to himself. Female Savior says they have a day maybe two. Gabriel has multiple infections. Did he tell Gabriel that he looked like a potato and crap casserole? 

Where is Morgan? He has a bead on Daryl. ONe of Negan's wives, is reminding Eugene that he could have ended this, but he only wanted to keep himself safe.  Daryl wants to break into the sanctuary, but Rosita doesn't want to be a part of this. She thinks its going to fail.

Negan and Eugene meeting. Negan telling him how smart he is and how he knows how smart Eugene is. Tells Eugene that he respects him. What is Eugene doing? What is his speaker leading him to do? They brought Sasha's coffin back? Is he going to use the ipod to fix the boom box? I'm thinking this side trip by Daryl is a mistake. It has fail written all over it. Michonne doesn't think it is a good idea. She is bailing on Daryl, too. 

Eugene is trying to lead the walkers away with his little airplane device, but someone is behind him, is that Dwight? Yep, it's Dwight. Eugene is such a turd. Just former traveling companions. Dwight killed the glider instead of Eugene. This is going to be bad, so bad. Well, maybe not too bad, the walkers are in the building. Eugene you better run dude. Eugene is gone. He only cares about surviving. He is about to give up Dwight. The intercom system? Eugene makes me sick. Now, he's drinking himself sick. I can't with this guy...

Making Rick fight another monster, and he defeated the monster and attacked Jadis. HE has its face right in hers. Took her down a peg. Rick wants to kill Negan by him by himself. He has her agreeing to a fourth of the plunder, but Rick and the Heapsters arrive at the Sanctuary, somebody is hanging from the water tower, no snipers are answering, and the lot is empty thanks to Daryl and Tara.  Mid-season finale next week y'all!!!
