^ That being said...there are also producers & writers...and even cast members who release certain things to outlets just to keep the convo going..usually they're only smokescreens...especially on social media sites..knowing full well it creates a stir and uproar while keeping the show current during it's down time. It's an old tactic.

C'mon now....I know you're a smart dude... and you obviously know they do film certain characters for storyline flashbacks etc....don't you?

Don't get suckered into their propaganda. Although I will admit, they do manage to get a few things right...somehow. Mainly it's just for sensationalism..and clicks to increase their ad revenue more times than not.

* MJ's death was a real life situation.....TWD is only a fictional TV show.

That could very well be the case. Things like this happen occasionally though such as Kit Harington being photographed heading to Ireland as GOT Season 6 was starting to be filmed. I wouldn't completely dismiss this as being a smokescreen. Could be flashbacks. Could be he is getting paid to ride off set with Norman. Could be he wasn't the one to get beaten to death. Keeps the convo going as you say.

Yep.

Not to mention they may have been together just to film some of Norman Reedus' new mini series..and Steven Yuen may be in one of it's episodes?

Plus whoever it turns out to be that got Lucille'd will still appear for at least one more scene as part of the main storyline and not just flashbacks. They aren't just going to reveal who it was by saying "Oh poor ____!" I'm sure we'll see him/her. Maybe they'll rewind that scene a bit and show the beat down from a different angle.

Not sure if it's possible to cause enough brain damage to kill someone's human form but leave enough for them to come back as a zombie but maybe that could happen. Maybe Negan ties up the corpse somewhere so it won't be a threat but allows it to return as a zombie to taunt the group or something like that.

Another way besides flashbacks, or zombies that head characters have reappeared is through characters going crazy and having apparitions. If it's Glen we might see that happening with a pregnant Maggie.

Thought I had come across an interesting article from Newsweek - the headline blares: "Rick Grimes Will Die" Says Creator

Turns out someone asked Kirkman that question and he replied "Eventually".

Newsweek then went on to ask me for a buck and a quarter a week for more great stories like this one. I declined. ;)

Wow...

Apparently, Harold Perrineau has been cast as Ezeekial. Good enough actor, but making Zeek a young guy really changes his status in the Kingdom, I think. However, if they are going to have him and Michone ever bump uglies, casting age-appropriate makes sense.../SPOILER]

Perrineau is 52 in real-life...I bet there's some gray in that beard. I don't recall if Zeke's actual age was ever mentioned in the comics, tho I know he seemed pretty old, what with the white beard en sech...Harold's a pretty good actor and should do well.

It'll be interesting to see how they spin his and Michonne's relationship, if at all now, given that she's with the Rictator:heh:

Not surprised with the casting and a lot of the speculated actors months back when it was announced Ezekial would appear included guys like him and Mr. Eko who are not as old as the comics. Keith David is older tho

He and Lincoln can compare acting notes on the best way to call out for your kid repeatedly.

Btw, has anyone watched Daryl's new show yet? I watched part of one. Found it underwhelming, to say the least.

His girlfriend's pretty cute, tho.

Been reading some stuff lately, and if they go through this extended 'flashback' shit I've been hearing about...it will be very disappointing. I've never been a farmer, but I wonder just how long you can milk a cow before it goes dry.

I haven't seen any spoilers, but I really don't care who the kill anymore. They are playing too many psych-out tricks at this point for me to even bother trying to follow along.

You mean before they reveal who was killed?? Oh man, that could be brutal.


I honestly could see it tho. As far as a literary sense is concerned, it kind of even makes sense?:noidea:





I dunno..I like the show. And I like the comics. I'll still watch, no matter.

Yeah, I agree with everything you say. And I'll still watch...up to a point. They can take that shit too far.
