Exactly. What I need to know is, who didn’t know this from the *very first dream*?!? It wasn’t hard to see. It was spelled out right in the storytelling: Something drastic happens to Rick, and hard cut to a bright, sunny day with Michonne looking like a vision and Rick just basking in her glow, then Rick wakes up in his bleak room. In the next dream, it’s interrupted just before he asks for her name…or maybe her phone number. (Damn you, Okafor!!) In the final dream, she’s all in white, he proposes and as he kisses her, like the letters he’d burned, she burns away, saying “I believe in you”, and he notices he has a left hand. How did anyone not understand that these were dreams? Am I giving too much credit to peoples comprehension levels these days?

5:51 bro the dreams where showing how he was dreaming and dealing with his PTSD and pain and hopelessness to help cope with the pain he was feeling. . Once he couldnt remember Carls face anymore (heart breaking) he started to dream about meeting Michonne in a alternative universe were the wild fire virus never happened and they met naturally. eventually if u pay attention his dreams of, once he finally gives up on leaving and burns his phones and letters, his dreams started to show her also burning and her face starting to blur away. People who havent been through extreme tramtic combat experiences will never truly understand this but its a thing... 1000 mile stare. The dreams were huge to showing him being absolutely broken to the point of giving into the CRM completely and giving what life he has left was now to complete Okafors mission to CHANGE the CRM from the inside. "We cant keep being the monster to beat the monster" and there "is no escape for the living". 26:05

The ending definitely felt a bit rushed and kinda caught me off guard, I expected the CRM to be a crazy enemy but they get beat in a season (technically an episode) so it kinda weirded me out. I do think it was cool how in Ricks proposal he says “it’s a broken world Michonne and you’re the only thing that puts it back together”. While in season 3 on the phone with hallucination Lori he said “I couldn’t put it back together” which I thought was cool. I know that the Walkers were used as fuel by the CRM also cause Rick Mentioned it in episode one so there is that connection possibly to Dead City but yeah curious where we go from here.

The scene with Rick, Lori and Carl reuniting was a family he was very close to and knew them intimately. Rick reuniting with Michonne and his kids is after 8 years of separation. He didn't know Michonne and they had to fight just to reconnect. This is the same for his children. Judith was basically a baby and RJ didn't exist. He doesn't know these people and they don't know him. He will need time to emotionally connect to them so that he can love them as much as he does his wife.

At Morgan's end on FTWD when he literally said he was going to look for Rick I was ecstatic. If they leave such a beautiful scenario as this untold would be a complete travesty. Even if morgan never finds rick, his search would make for wonderful story telling. I mean, they showed daryls search for him beautifully and michone got an entire season and a few episodes and was totally worth the wait. So if they leave morgan oit of it, ima be sad as shit because despite people disdain for morgan as a character, I loved morgan

The grenade that Rick pulled the pin on was probably a standard fragmentation grenade. These grenades explode fragmentations out in a high radius, hence the name frag grenade. Rick was wearing body armor and thick clothing at the time and yes, being that close to a frag genade's intial explosive would be highly detrimental to a standard person, the walker he was holding took most of the brunt of the explosion plus the pieces of fragmentation

I hella love your content my dude and I'm so glad you're getting in on the old school Resident Evil train, it suits your tastes beautifully. With your TWD content, I've enjoyed your work put into speculation and I almost always agree with your assessments. That being said, I definitely agree with the Terry O'Quinn journeyman outlook. Back in WB when Beale was only mentioned, it made me think of one particular B-movie legend... no... THE B-movie icon... who was once touted to portray Negan. Around that actual time he even replied to a question on Twitter regarding a show he would love to be on and his response was, "The Walking Dead. Make it happen" That man is known as The Chin himself, Bruce Campbell. I was soooo hoping this would have been his moment, something that he would have fit into way better than O'Quinn, despite the latter having insanely good chops himself. Anyway, just a fan here enjoying your work. Keep it up bro!!

Some things to note about the gas in ep 6 are 1. Michonne notes that it breaks up quickly. She was caught in the initial blast that first time unlike the second time and 2.

The show was amazing except for one thing, plot connivence. And man did it take me out of the show. From them jumping out of the helicopter and then it exploding, Michone finding Rick purely by chance and the god awful finale explosion. Hands down the best thing was acting (Andrew Lincoln) and the theme. Too Far Gone is always in the back of my mind and was especially prevalent during the scene with John Locke (CRM leader guy) and Rick.

@KurokamiNajimi 4 ай бұрын

Some level of convenience like finding each other by chance can be forgiven. That’s the point of the story that after nearly a decade where Rick feels like there’s no way out fate brings them back together. It’s even referenced in episode 4 when she’s pleading with him to snap out of it. But the more you think about it I think there’s a lot of problems with the narrative it’s the type of thing on why I dropped this show early on and only watch videos about it for fun to see what happened This is subjective but I don’t really like just how long he was gone or that he cut off his hand (which was only done to mirror the comic). 8 years is a long time and there’s no reference of him forming any new relationships within that time. The excuse for the CRM not letting him go doesn’t make much sense either. This is by far the powerful group in the world the idea that he’d go back home and rally up forces that would be able to travel all the way back to the CRM and remotely overthrow it is straight nonsense. He was very clearly just a man who wanted to go home, the average person in that scenario wouldn’t want to leave. There’s also no reason they couldn’t have just found his family and friends and brought them in I don’t remember the guy’s name in the first episode who found his letter then died in the helicopter but how believable it is really that he just gives up after finding out he has info on him? He still could have killed him and anyone else who had info. Or you could question why wasn’t the info shared with the higher ups. I also don’t buy the emotional argument he gave in episode 4 for why he was hesitant to take the risk in coming back it seemed out of character. His logical argument made more sense and was proven to be true when they came after them. Her coming alone was questionable and them helping strangers and not killing them after they turned on them was a mistake rookies would make The ending while the best one could hope for it at this point I think feels a bit dry not only because other characters are missing for the time being but it’s exactly that, the best one could hope for. The series has been irreversibly damaged since Carl’s death and Rick’s departure, this isn’t what was suppose to happen. Even the RickxMichone pairing while it has grown on people wasn’t built on the best grounds. Them having a son together that Rick doesn’t even know up till now while Carl is dead just feels wrong

I agree with what Dan from Dan Reviews said - The CRM was probably not even a created thing until Andrew Lincoln wanted to leave. They were created as a means of getting Rick off the show, and then they were shoehorned into FTWD and TWB in hopes of getting/keeping people interested in those shows. Unfortunately, this led to the audience having certain expectations for them, to the point that it was inevitable that many would be disappointed.

So in the end, I was satisfied with the ending. The CRM plot was rushed, no doubts about it but I didn’t watch this show for the CRM and I knew with how many fan theories there were, there was no way any story could live up to the hype so many people have built up on their heads for years.

I did not watch Dead City (the synopses I read sounded "meh"), but I did watch Daryl Dixon and was unimpressed. I will continue to read their synopses and not spend my valuable time watching, hoping that somewhere there will be an episode where they all eventually reunite (with Rick and Michonne as show guests). That episode I will watch.

Those metal leashes are tough. A singular hatchet would not cut through them. He would need something a lot stronger and they wouldn't give him anything that would cut through it so the hand was his best option. It did urk me however that he didn't even make it 100 ft lol

Beale talking about the rising threat of the variants would have given us so much more to see ahead. That actually would have been such great setup and that single detail I think would have redeemed the ending of TOWL for me.

I wonder what they could have done with 8 or 10 episodes instead of just the 6. Just fleshing things out a little bit more would have made me feel just a little bit better about it as a whole.

i love your videos. i have been watching them since before the spin offs were released. Even tho i feel like The Ones Who Live told the story to fast and I thought the CRM would play a bigger enemy but I'm happy the show happened. I was worried we would never see Rick Grimes again. I can't wait to watch this video.

8/10 for me. It wasn't as strong production as I was expecting it to be, but cosidering the amount of time that's gone and hunger for Rick's story I can't go not apprieciating what we got. Still the quality of it was much better than wat we were getting in the OG series.

@icee_ae 4 ай бұрын

I do understand why you have rated the series as an 8/10, but I still believe that it deserves a 9/10. For those who came for Rick & Michonne, we see it as a perfect sendoff for them; however, those who came for the CRM are greatly disappointed. Maybe increasing the episode count to 8 would've pleased both parties, but I myself am very pleased with the ending. The final episode may have been rushed, but I thoroughly enjoyed the fast pacing that mirrored the first two episodes. Not only that, but the perfect blend of action, emotion, and slow, yet tense, moments really sold it for me. If I were to rate the final episode, it would be a 9/10. Overall, I think this was one of the greatest TWDU seasons of all time, on par with the earlier seasons if not even better.

When I watched season 10 I distinctly remember Michonne wearing a ring on a necklace just like Maggie wears her wedding ring, so I figured that was her wedding ring with Rick

I know your comment is a month old but I’m currently re-watching TWD and I’m on the episode right after Rick blows up the bridge. Michonne is wearing a ring on her necklace but my first thought was maybe it’s Rick’s wedding ring to Lori because he stopped wearing it a while back. Maybe he kept it around because he’s not wearing a ring in the last episode he appears on.

I've recently rewatched House of the dragon and am also reading the ASOIAF books, so IDK if my expectations were too high, but man this show was a serious letdown for me. HOTD is also a spinoff, but they managed to create one that actually (so far) stands up to the peak of the main series. There's no reason why AMC shouldn't be able to do the same. The last episode unironically ruined my day, I couldn't stop thinking about how rushed and fairytale like it was.

I really enjoyed the CRM, I personally would of loved to see Rick swear on the sword and bring his friends and family to them. Beale had a lot of respect for Rick and even believed Rick can lead one day. Rick would be able to reunite with everyone while influencing Beale in making changes within or creating an entire season dedicated to our survivors, taking on Beale and the elites. Rick definitely wasn't cutting that lead with his ax, even so he didn't have the time to hack away at it. Something about the Rick and Michonne dynamic bothers me. I enjoy these characters more when they aren't together. I feel like we see their true characters on their own more together 🤷🏽‍♂️ Overall, this was a great show. im really glad we got it!

@GabrielTorres-fl2xo 4 ай бұрын

I'm really curious to see the direction the spin offs will take because i can easily see so many first time viewers in the future watch the main show, then watch TOWL for closure on Rick and Michonne's story and that would be enough for them. The story starts with Rick, so ending with him reuniting with his family does make for a great end point

It’s interesting, I introduced my girlfriend to the walking dead in the past year and now we’ve watched it all. Waiting for this show to come out, I had so many expectations and questions. Somehow, this show managed to satisfy me greatly but also severely let me down. I don’t actually think this will be the last we see of Officer Friendly, regardless of what we’ve been told - to me it just feels like his story has a tiny bit more to tell. I also don’t know if the CRM is really gone, unless they’ve just Scott Gimple’d it and ruined their own potential by selling themselves short, they felt too big to beat in one episode. I think it requires more effort. Not six episodes, either a new show (with a good number of episodes) or movies which would ultimately serve as the finale. I’m now torn between wanting more and being happy with what we got. I’m not sure where I’ll ultimately end up. I am thankful though. I love this universe, it’s a work of art (which sometimes stumbled) and now I got to share it with someone I love. Thank you AMC.

@simplykiki9411 4 ай бұрын

You were not correct about Rick's reason for wanting to stay with the CRM. Michonne was right. He was lying. Your misunderstanding is made more apparent by the fact that you didn't even discuss Rick telling Michonne that he'd learned how to die and believe she was alive, but he pushed her away because he didn’t think he could die again or see anything happen to her.

@dragonballradiant2744 3 ай бұрын

The point of the sequences with Michonne’s. Was to show Rick trying to hang on. That’s why she burns up in a similar way to Carl. When Rick is explaining what they took from him. It was meant to show Rick finally letting go. They show you that at the end of the episode.

The Ones Who Live reminds me a lot of the situation with El Camino and Breaking Bad. It’s meant to be a bit of an epilogue, and supposed to really finish off the story for certain people. Everyone built it up to be something more than it was going to be. Was it rushed? Maybe a little bit towards the end. Was there plot armor? Maybe, but Rick has already proven he has THE plot armor (i refer you to the fucking bridge scene). Was I disappointed? No. I wasn’t expecting much more than Rick and Michonne reuniting, and maybe one of them dying. I was a little miffed by how they wasted Terry O’Quinn, given his talent as an actor, but again, this show wasn’t meant to truly set up something else. Like El Camino, it was meant to give closure. And it did that beautifully. I loved every second of this show and while Im sad its done, I am glad we got it Side Note: Everyone hop off RJ. The kid has two or three lines. Did you really expect him to deliver? Especially since he has zero character whatsoever. He is moreso a symbol than a real character. Also? HE IS A KID!! Not everyone can be Chandler Riggs. So please, hop off. He is a kid.
