    Good Episode

    The trippy part was amusing. The teasers will give people a lot to talk about. Overall a good episode in a season that has been a bounce back for the series.

    The most emotional episode since rick's out

    Full of emotion and gives us the feeling of the old TWD. First rick mention since a long time, I can be sure that his film's gonna be amazing!!!! TWD COMING BACK TO THE TOP AGAIN

    The new bible

    After, Carol, Siddiq, now it's Michonne's turn to face the illusions of the past... Our choices blend us who we are and in no way the choices of others.. And if our choices survive us, surely our lives will have been made. An episode that doesn't leave indifferent, and maybe makes us want to be different

    How is this a soap opera

    I hate when people go on and review this show every episode just to call it a soap. Literally how is this a soap? I have seen soap operas before and they look nothing at all what so ever like The Walking Dead. This episode was one of the best in the series and is criminally underrated. Danai Gurira's acting was absolutely astounding. I literally can not understand why she isn't a huge movie star. She is one of the best actors i have ever seen and she perfectly portrays someone powerful. She brings so much excitement to the screen and this episode does nothing but show that. I wish her nothing but the best and i feel nothing but grateful that she gave us this character and this amazing goodbye of an episode. This isnt a god damn soap

    Underrated emotional journey!

    The Walking Dead has always been known for doing episodes, devoted to a single or a couple of characters, qnd when done right, these character centered episodes that focuses a lot on growth qnd their mental state, can be some of the best episodes!

    While this was not my favorite of those kind of episodes, this was still a memorable journey that dives deeper into Michonne's character, giving ud one of Danai Gurira's best performances on this show!

    The "What if...?" Dream sequence was brilliant in my opinion and allowed for an emotional journey as we realize how much has happened and how different things could have been!

    While the episode can feel a bit slow at times, I was overwhelmed by emotions by the end!

      Michonne: I don't want any trouble.

      Negan: Then you probably shouldn't have taken a swing at me.

    FAQ1

    • Were the scenes from the Negan road stop filmed at the time of the original episode? Or was Michonne added to cut scenes to make it appear she was there in the role of Negan's ally? Rumors surrounding that episode mentioned many death scenes filmed, seems possible these scenes could have been planned in advance for last night's episode.. yet unlikely.. But if they filmed them new the number of long gone extras that would have to be called back to film these would have been a logistics nightmare.
