The Walking Dead ***please use SPOILER tags***

We're getting the best of both Ricks. More civilized, and yet he's not gonna stop til he's kicked the last ass and taken the last name, hopefully Negan's. Favorite line if not quoted already, the one where Rick tells Daryl to stare King Ezekiel into submission.

He left Rick a note that said 'Boat'. So Rick, even when meeting all the gun-toting 'garbage pail kids' at the end, would know or believe he hadn't betrayed him.

Think about it, though. What happened when they tried a first strike last time? Things got WAY worse, right? I don't want to spoil a ton, but give Morgan a chance.

I'm inclined to agree with Morgan, though. Numbers alone generally confers no advantage in a battle. Fight smart, not hard - or at least no harder than you have to.
Personally I'd follow guerrilla tactics. Ambush Negan's patrols along their routes, have their scouts go missing. When he turns up looking for answers, it's easy then just to give him the old 'What're we going to ambush anyone with? You took all our weapons, remember? And if we found more we'd be sure to keep them for you. We don't want to see anyone else die' routine. That's easier still if you trap the patrols and allow a load of zombies to have their way. No bullet holes, just bite marks, so what do you know they were unlucky or unobservant and got bounced by a horde.
The only thing they'd have to do is make sure there wasn't an obvious pattern, that it wasn't every single patrol, and that it wasn't always in the 'area of control' of any specific group. That'd be pretty easy to co-ordinate, even so. Thin the numbers first, get them demoralised and questioning Negan's leadership (Negan himself wouldn't be able to restrain his temper but would have no legitimate target to take it out on, so he'd lash out at those closest to him), and there might be no need for direct confrontation in any case. But even if there is, Negan's group would have far fewer bayonets. Attack in the right way from there and it should be a quick, fairly easy win.

The only down-sides to it for me were related to production rather than story. That CG tiger doesn't get any better, and then right near the end I thought their passage past the lake looked as fake as a £15 note. Those things aside, I enjoyed it again.

Richard taking my advice! (or at least trying)
Daryl's general bad-a$$ery, especially when juxtaposed with the kind lie he told Carol so she didn't lose the last shred of her 'original' self/better nature.
The general tone of about half the ep.

That lingering shot of sod all prior to the new group entering the scene;
All the pointless milling about in front of the camera; headache-inducing pointlessly 'arty' BS. Hannibal and other series have gone for an arty style and it's generally worked. Here...nope;
The 'Then we said bye-de-bye to the old world/"Apocaclypse"' Mad Max: Beyond Thunderdome-style speech patterns. We're supposed to be between 18 months and 4 years after the ZA; language degradation on that scale would only occur after several generations, or as in the Mad Max universe, if kids who were too young to have formed proper language use at the time had raised even younger kids and got started on their own second generation. In people who were adults at the time of the apocalypse? Nope, sod off with that silly sh...stuff;
The frankly shyte green-screen work (again). I know they're on a budget. I know it's going to be tight. But come on;
The way Rick needed telling to 'use the walls'. I mean, come on, man! It was the only thing to do! (Goes to the general feeling of 'Treat the characters how you like, writers and producers. Treat Rick and any other character like an idiot if you feel you need to. Just don't treat me like one' that I've had for...too long now. Pretty much all of the first part of this season, certainly.)
And what the hell was with that chick's fringe? Did she get old Zombie Scissor...everything to cut it for her?

a Guillermo Del Toro character. Yup, ****e green-screen work, but I enjoyed most of this ep. The speech thing was irritating. The only thing that I could think of is perhaps Bowl-Haircut was having a hard time with an American accent? I dunno. Sketchy. I do know I wouldn't trust one damn thing she said. Really, Rick? THAT'S where I think the writers are playing the viewers for fools. Huge leap into The Stoopid for Rick, and way out of character.

I must say, I agree with Jeffrey. In this instance...people are stupid.

We played this using the word "monkey" instead of "tiger" as Negan says. Took me a full do to even figure out how it was "racist".

I do have a Negan shirt. Not this one. I would not wear this one.
