    Dont trust the rating.. this episode was INSANE!!

    First of all.. this might be the most UNDERRATED episode in the whole series! This score is more a reflecsion on the angry backlssh the episode got when it aired, rather than the quality of the episode itself!

    This was one... HELL OF AN EXPERIENCE! I dont think I have ever felt that anxious doing a TV episode! I was actually feeling uncomfortable when the episode ended!

    The whole episode was essentialy a slow effective build-up towards that EPIC 15min last scene!! Once it goes down.. it goes down HARD!!

    Jeffrey Dean Morgan delivers the most INCREDIBLE 10min monologue of the whole show, and makes Neagan the most FRIGHTNING villain ever!

    This will be an experience you will never forget! This is panic and stress!

    And yes.. just watch the next episode right after and the cliffhanger wont matter!

    Huge cliffhanger why the 6.8

    This episode was amazing and terrifying although it does have a huge cliffhanger how did it get so many low ratings???? The episode itself was great especially when The Villain comes in.

    But the ending! Come on now.

    Yes. It was a poor way to end the episode/season. But there is no way in the world that this is a bad episode. Absolutely brilliant performances from the cast are one thing but the intensity and tension of the episode is really something. We slowly see the flat out arrogance and complacency of the group deteriorate at each time they are blocked in their path.

    It ushered in Negan and The Saviors perfectly as a force to behold. Nobody wanted the ending we got but that should not overshadow how good the story was here. Combine it with S07E01 and it's stellar.

    Why tf a 6.8? 😭😭

    This was the best episode of the whole season. Can someone seriously explain why it is rated so low? Because of a cliffhanger ending? 😭 you crybabies must have never experienced a story before i swear to god. Absolute masterpiece of an episode, one of the most intense episodes i've ever watched especially towards the end.

    I find it hilarious how these "critics" think they are so superior and smart, yet it seems to me like they have never even experienced a story before in their life? Never heard of a cliffhanger ending before? And it was executed perfectly too. Im just absolutely mind blow tbh at how this was the lowest rated in the whole season.

    Most underrated episode ever

    This is the best episode in walking dead history. Easily has the highest tension of any episode. The slow burn buildup to negan's character is brilliant. The last 15 minutes will have anyone on the edge of their seats. This finale is the real definition of horror. The only reason I gave it a 9 and not a 10 is because of the cliffhanger, but after seeing the season 7 premiere i was ok with it.

    • Trivia
      Negan's comic look is based on actor and musician Henry Rollins. Though Jeffrey Dean Morgan doesn't share any facial similarities with Rollins, his outfit is exactly the same as in the book.
    • Goofs
      Around 30:30 (30 minutes, 30 seconds), soon after being ambushed on the road, one of the dead walkers recently killed by Rick can be seen moving their leg to ensure it's clear of the RV as it drives away.

      [last lines]

      Negan: [prepares to beat one of Rick's group with Lucille] Anybody moves, anybody says anything, cut the boy's other eye out and feed it to his father and then we'll start. You can breathe, you can blink, you can cry. Hell, you're all gonna be doing that.

      [swings the bat down as the sound rings]

      Negan: Ho! Ho! Look at that. Taking it like a champ!

      [smiles as he looks in the eyes of his victim]

      Negan: Damn!

      [the sounds of the bat keep swinging, thudding]
