Sure, but I'm assuming that at some point there will be something revealed as to WHY Carl froze up. Could be wrong. But AGAIN, it's a solid show. The writers tend to at least TRY to cover their bases. We'll see. You called it the worst moment in the show's history or something like that.
It didn't even make me bat an eye.
My point in asking you to come up with alternatives wasn't to laugh at you for not being perfect, but to suggest that 'perfect' is impossible when putting your work out there in public. That's just the way it goes. For every person who thinks your script or picture or documentary or book rocks, there's someone that thinks it sucks donkey balls.
No show gets everything 'perfect.' If I was not busy at work, I'd waste some time and find people losing their shit on message boards over 'The Wire,' or 'Breaking Bad,' even the best of TV shows have their vocal critics.
Well, we can agree to disagree (As it will do no good to say the same thing again). I do feel it was the worst moment of the show to date quite honestly, but that may very well be because it was the culmination of a lot of bad moments, or the type of laziness that maybe we've gotten SO used to that this was just the straw that broke this camel's back? I don't know...
All I know is my wife and daughter, who watch with me, groaned along with me when Carl didn't pull the trigger... And not as some moment of catharsis, but just to express the, "Good grief!!... C'mon you have GOT to be kidding me!!!"
I'm with you on the show still being solid. Just have to be able to roll with some stupidity from time to time...
And yes, I am holding out the possibility that Carl might.... at some point down the road.... explain why he didn't pull the trigger... Just find it hard to fathom that he'd have second thoughts after everything Negan had done, even if he somehow "respects" Negan as a better leader than his Dad or something (Not a comic reader, but I get the impression that someone in the group becomes a villain at some point from tidbits I've seen and heard.)...
