I was forced to remove 1 min of footage its around the 14 minute mark so it will sound weird sorry about that

The first big death to impact Rick was Sophia. After that he felt so guilty because he made a poor choice that led to her death and he learned to be tougher and afterwards he was much darker. It was just after her death when he got his first kills in that bar to save Glenn and Hershel. Rick was changed forever and that was when he truly became the leader of the group.

A deep dive on Rick is incomplete without mention of Michonne. Understandably, a few minutes were dedicated to his troubled relationship with his first wife. There was also time spent on Jessie who had 8 scenes with Rick in the span of 1 and a half seasons. It was a missed opportunity to highlight how much influence Michonne had on Rick and how she was instrumental in getting Rick back to the fighter and leader he truly is.

Despite the similarities between Shane and Rick, I think the majority difference is Shane only cares about Lori and carl and will sacrifice everything else in the group for their safety, whereas Rick would kills everyone in his way that his group and his family. Yes Shane adopted to the word faster than anyone else, but he is too hot-headed to make it , he doesn’t get along with people, and you know people to survive the apocalypse

Schizophrenia is a disorder, an incredibly misunderstood and stigmatized one at that. Rick is experiencing PSYCHOSIS, an altered state of mind which can occur in anyone with enough mental stress, trauma, drug use, sleep deprivation, etc. Disappointing to not hear this distinction made, here and elsewhere, when schizophrenics face higher rates of mortality, homelessness, abuse and more (I have a friend who is, and work in healthcare) Not mentioning Michonne is also a little suspect. She insists they need to get off the road and back into some semblance of 'society' when the group is losing themselves, she's Carl's best friend, she believes in Alexandria and is one of the people who helps Rick believe in it too, she helps him "let go of the fight" as she calls it.

Skipping over Sophia is wild because she was Rick's first Mistake.

I don’t think Rich was schizophrenic. Rick’s desensitization to murder is a by product of his inability to cope emotionally with these conditions. He has complex ptsd. If you rewatch the show every season showcases this.

“The new worlds gonna need Rick Grimes.”

It's weird that you never mentioned Michonne. It's also weird that you claimed that Rick has schizophrenia. It's clear that you don't know anything about that condition.

This was a really great video! Really great breakdown of Rick's journey and character arc.

About Rick in Alexandria, you state that Rick is the only one of the group not having a good feeling about this place, but that´s not true. Carol is extremely cautious using a mask of clumsy, helpless elderly woman to disguise herself and getting weapons, just in case... Also Carl is also sceptical, as well as Sasha, who is suffering from the loss of Bob and her brother. Not to forget Daryl who doesn´t trust this lalala-land called Alexandria at first at all. The rest of the group integrates faster and also try to enjoy it, with less doubts but in the end, you can see it with Michonne and Abraham as well.

This is sooo good!! 🔥🔥 Rick Grimes is my favorite all time character and you told his story so well!

Love the vid but I feel like you missed a key detail in Rick’s personality change when describing Rick’s loss of humanity when killing the claimer that was about to rape Carl.

Very good! I subscribed today x

Rick was Bad a**, Before Shame died look what he did to those 2 guys On the episode. Nebraska...

You didn’t mention michonne in the restoration and development of Ricks humanity and leadership at all, which she was a great integral part of him being stronger.. Especially since they’re a couple in most of the seasons.. smh

Quick correction, Shane was aiming his gun at rick in season 1. Dale sees this and then Shane tries to play it off. I'm sure you knew this but just misspoke, but I thought I should correct it anyways :)

This was incredibly well done and enjoyable. Always love to see new TWD YTers pop up in my feed! I'd love to see you do Madison Clark at some point!

no one calls rick “red machete rick” everyone calls him “murder jacket rick”

Your deep dive wasn't bad,but you left out on how Michonne helped Rick throughout his difficult times since she met him S3 E6 to S9 E5 each time Rick was hitting rock-bottom Michonne was there to bring him back to reality. His must darkest was S5 after Terminus and being in Alexandria #Richonneforever❤❤

Excellent video! I enjoyed it a lot. Rick is my favorite television character of all time, so I love me some Rick videos 😁 Just one thing. Shane is not one of the voices on the phone...it's Amy, Jacquie, Jim and Lori 😊

Dude very cool. Ten out of Ten. Thank you

Great video man, keep it up.

Idk if its a hot take or not but i dont think Rick and co were villains at the satelite outpost. We knew what kind of people we were dealing with. Of course it didnt work out, i think they made a huge tactical error but they struck against the enemy before the enemy could strike against them.

You should do it but with the comic version of Rick

Hey I'm really enjoying binging your vids❤

So to me there is four phases of Rick Grimes 1st The Revolver Phase aka Officer Friendly 2nd The Red Machete Phase 3rd The Axe Phase aka Rise, Fall and Rebirth 4th The Hidden Blade Phase aka Current Rick But thats all I can think of at the moment... 😅😅😅

Rick starts clearing

New Subscriber. Please, do Carol next. Next best character in TWD

Good job Buddy.. well done!

Great Video!! Keep it up!!

Your making me want to start posting again but about the walking dead😂

Season 4 rick is my favorite.

fucking great video bro

Shane mudou o Rick, a morte de Lori o deixou louco mas o Hershel trouxe ele de volta, Hershel ajudou muito o Rick antes de sua morte. Depois da queda da prisão Rick não era mais um cara louco e insano, mas ele também não era um herói, ele voltou a usar suas armas, voltou a matar, mas dessa vez sem ficar louco. O Rick da temporada 5 não é louco, é só alguém que aceitou a loucura, porém ainda com muita bondade no coração, mesmo depois da morte do Carl ainda havia esperança, Rick perdeu muito e mesmo assim continuou firme no que acredita sem nunca desistir.

What is the music that's playing?! I'm hearing it everywhere!

I like the video but your speech at times has stutters and it seems like you start a sentence with a point but with a lot of " uhh"/ breaks in the sentence. Just something i noticed, It would help me understand your idea or point easier if it was a more straightforward. I think the video us great though! Also I saw its an older video so I'm excited to see how much better you've gotten!

Shit happens right

I made you a promise

One thing I regret about the show is Rick and Jessie never really got together. Im not a shipper, but Jessie was a great character who had so much potential and inner-strength, it was a shame to lose her. And given how the creator of the video compared Rick and Negan, to be honest when looking at the brutality of the two men, I honestly cannot see a whole lot of difference. Though I must say at the end of S8, during their final battle, when we here Negan say how he didn't want to kill Rick in front of Carl, and the grief he has in his eyes when Rick starts talking about Carl, you can see that despite Negan being the Villain, he was unlike the Governor in that Negan could genuinely have emotion, he could happiness, but also pain and grief, which was further cemented how he begged Maggie to kill him so he could be with Lucille, and expressed outrage when Alpha was gonna killer her own daughter, and then killing the former before she could - those things set Negan apart from the other antagonists in the series - to show that he had decency in him, but was hardened by the losses and tribulations he experienced, just as Rick was, but who went down a bit of a different path. I do hope in the future spin-off with Rick, that they do not turn him into a complete villain. I really hope they will have him retain his humanity.
