At least if it's like in the comics it'll be relatively painless...

How so and who's in the picture?

That's Judith and Lori getting blasted during the Governors attack on the prison. Obviously Lori is already dead but if Judith was to get killed off I reckon it'd be in a similarly gruesome fashion!

I wish I had started reading the comic when it first came out, but there's no way I'm gonna catch up, now.

You can always check out the Compendiums, they are a great way to get caught up; I actually got the third Compendium at Christmas last year (the previous two the year prior) but never got around to reading it and just earlier today went in the basement to dig it out of one of the moving boxes.

They're a quick read if you sit down and have the time, finished Compendium 3 in one day (and probably about the same for the others).

I love the show, but it took way too long for all the characters to come back together.

Yeah, but it was Rosita who was the real badass in this episode...just like Negan called her! ;D He was actually shocked that someone tried to kill him!!
DARK SHADOWS:

David Collins: "Dead people dont just get up and walk around.."

Sarah Collins: "Sometimes they do."

Did Rosita learn nothing from Glenn's death? Darryl has to live with what his actions caused, but Rosita should be prosecuted for the same thing! She knew (of should have) that an innocent person would die for what she tries to do.

As long as it isn't her. When the action slows down, I just concentrate on her *ss  (it always makes the episode more watchable,  imo).

She is gorgeous. Abraham giving her the brush off had to be the most far-fetched storyline so far. If I were him I'd have been more concerned with finding a nice little island to settle down on with her than getting Eugene to Washington.

As much as we've complained about this season, Sunday isn't the same without it. I really miss Maggie's lovely arse.

No complaints from me. I've enjoyed this season.

It's Horror with an edge. If it's too much for some people then they should move on and not watch. People who are whining about it obviously like the show or they wouldn't make the effort to whine, but if it troubles them that much then maybe this type of Horror just isn't really for them. I like different styles and strengths of Horror/Monsters ranging from Groovie Goolies to Cannibal Holocaust so I don't have a problem with it. One of the great strengths of The Walking Dead is that you never really know who dies next, which gives it an edgy reality-based attraction which is unique in such a long running show. You can't have that edge if you pull punches because certain fans might be upset. I commend TWD for keeping the show exciting and not wussing out.

ALWAYS MONSTERING...

I liked the season and had no problem with the brutal killing of main characters. I just get tired of the frustrating habit of splitting the group up and spend the rest of the season getting them back together for the finale. It's still the best show on the air.
