ummm @BlackBird check out number 5

We know — it wasn’t that long ago that we suggested that The Walking Dead probably should have ended at the conclusion of Season 8. But damn — the Season 10 trailer that AMC’s zombie drama dropped Friday at Comic-Con has left us all kinds of stoked to see new episodes (starting Sunday, Oct. 6). Why?

1. The Whisperers War
The endless conflict with the Saviors bored us to tears, it’s true. But we have far higher hopes for our heroes’ battle with Alpha’s crew. For one thing, these new baddies aren’t just murderous jerks like the Saviors, they’re twisted freaks who wear walker-skin masks and hang with the undead. And their leader isn’t a pun-loving blowhard, she’s a stone-cold psycho. Speaking of the Saviors’ former big kahuna…

2. Negan 2.0
Yeah, we have problems with Glenn and Abraham’s killer. Big ones. And it makes us uncomfortable how we’ve softened toward him since he became friends with Rick and Michonne’s daughter Judith. Still, we can’t deny that he’s gotten a lot more interesting since he developed characteristics other than a love of hearing himself talk. And it promises to be interesting to see him fighting with, rather than against, his former enemies.

3. Carol vs. Alpha
We’ve been hoping for a showdown between Henry’s grieving mother and the villainess who beheaded the boy since Season 9. And based on that trailer, man, are we gonna get it. “Bitch has to die,” says Carol matter-of-factly. And we freaking love that Samantha Morton’s Big Bad has no clue that Carol is such a stone-cold ass-kicker, she’s gonna make her wish she was dead!

4. Michonne’s Dark Side
That last image of soon-to-exit Danai Gurira‘s heroine brandishing what looks like Negan’s beloved Lucille suggests that maybe, just maybe, he was right when he suggested that the two of them were more alike than she’d care to admit. Question is, at whom was she pointing the potentially lethal weapon?

5. Lotsa Caryl
There will be a contingent, we know, that is disappointed that it appears Daryl is being drawn romantically to Connie, not Carol. But (a) we love Connie for him, and (b) Norman Reedus and Melissa McBride’s characters have always worked supremely well as besties. And it seems that not only does showrunner Angela Kang get that, she’s going to play that, big time — maybe not with friendship bracelets, but still.


6. Michonne and… Ezekiel?!?
With Gurira set to depart, we never in our wildest dreams imagined that her alter ego would get the romance with the Kingdom’s monarch that she did in Robert Kirkman’s comic-book series. Now that we know it’s coming, we’re curious as hell to see where it goes (and how his ex Carol reacts).

 

Have noticed over the course of season 9 and now with the season 10 that there are a number of people who just do not pay attention to episodes. And I am not talking about the level of watching an episode like @Neuropyramidal or @mistertrouble189 . I am talking about average joe level of watching an episode and taking note of events, moments that are basically in your face LOL

Last season, episode 15 when Magna kisses Yumiko before she heads back to Hilltop - I saw several comments, videos where people were surprised by the kiss. Really? It was heavily hinted that they were together in episode 6 and made very clear in episode 7.

Fast forward to the season 10 trailer and there are still a number of "viewers" who are surprised by the scene with Magna and Yumiko who are obviously enjoying a romantic evening with one another. How HOW can someone watch a series and be that damn clueless about the characters?

I just needed to rant a wee bit about that. Has bugged me since last season.

 

Angela has had some really tough hurdles to clear. She did a fantastic job with the exit of Andy. I have faith that she once again has taken great care in handling the exit of a fan favorite character

 

Such a different cast of characters for this years SDCC panel

 

Oh I know, I know.

Just last night I saw a vid of someone yammering on about how exciting it was that the show was going to move West AND possibly form a community/live by the ocean.

Seriously? I get that, in the trailer, Daryl and Carol seem to be having a chat about leaving on the bike and heading west. But that is just Daryl and Carol having that chat - it does not involve picking up and moving all communities or even one community. That chat between the besties is probably a chat like one would have with a friend about "what if we won lottery. What would we do with all that money". Chance of Daryl and Carol heading west are about as likely as me winning the lottery. And I never buy a ticket. So there

And then according to this person everyone is moving west and will live near the ocean. Unless it is my sense of direction that is completely askew I do believe that heading west would move one away from the ocean!?!

I know, I know I am being persnickety.
