I think the main threat/point of interest for this season has been sign posted with the wandering saviors not making it back to their camp as mentioned to Thick Rick and shown at the end of the episode.
I think the main point of interest for this season is who gets to kill Rick.I hope it's me.

Last nights episode.
I missed the first ten minutes and all I can remember of the rest was Daryl fighting with everyone he talked to, Maggie being talked to about locking up the one who attacked her pleading with her to make a decision, then talking to the one who attacked her and not making any decision. Then some random guy who was told off for being naughty and must leave, walking at night half-drunk getting attacked by someone he knows, so it's probably Daryl even though he greeted him in a very non-Daryl manner.
Lots of talking. Memorable.

The demise of Rick is the only pay off I'm hanging around for. Plus I like to moan about the show here.
I'm already getting pressure that the show is no longer acceptable as shared Monday evening viewing so may be relegated to one of those show I watch on my own.
Yep, although i used to watch it half hour into the show so i could fast forward the adverts, now its been relegated to watching bits here and there, fast forwarding all the toe curling love pluff that was in episode 2!I'm already getting pressure that the show is no longer acceptable as shared Monday evening viewing so may be relegated to one of those show I watch on my own.

Spoiler Alert... Sorry dont know the proper tag code...
So we have Rick bedding with the Ninja dreads lady, of whose name has somehow escaped me. We have Carol getting freaky with King Ezekiel and now we have the priest, erm, the Escopilian priest about to get it on with miss Polly bird. It is easy to assess that the writing team for TWD are all liberals LOL
If they had any smarts they would terminate Negan now while they have him held in a cell.
I don't think you have to be a liberal to accept white and black people having sexual relations....but i think for sure if that makes you itch you are a racist....So we have Rick bedding with the Ninja dreads lady, of whose name has somehow escaped me.

Are you implying that I am a racist? Because I am not. Remember also that one must be careful in how they read and interpret written words which too often get misconstrued in their meaning or intent by the readers mind. If I had been more attentive to my comment and placed a smiley face and a smirk emoji at the end of it, it would have conveyed my attempt at a post made in humour, albeit one in poor taste in hindsight, MAYBE...
I should point out as well that as I was quick to make the claim that the writers must be "liberals" YOU TOO sir were quick in in your judgement of me and all too quick to label me a racist so CERTAINLY i.e. "..but i think FOR SURE that makes you a RACIST..."
Does it? Does pointing out the obvious ethnic mixing of characters WITHOUT any form of direct judgement otherwise make me a racist FOR SURE?
Suggesting that said obvious pairing of black and white characters must have been written into the script by a liberal writing staff makes me no racist. I said it not out of malicuous intent or as a sly remark. You only read it and interpreted it that way. Again, my fault for not putting the proper emoji at the end to convey the temperament of my remark. But i think perhaps your so final judgment says alot more about your own temperament than it does my own?
Or does it?

When you look at the actual amount of characters that can get it on, it has far more to do with that than any liberal writing....
And it is 2018 it is not even really a thing anymore, surely?
Seeing a white man with a black women or visa versa, is it considered a liberal thing to tolerate that? Or just a normal thing?
The general concept of something like TWD is that at the zombie Apocalypse we are either human (good or bad) or zoombie, and the whole structure of black / white etc is off the table....
Literally, we need help to survive so if you are on our side you are on our side..... you would not be thinking about race as you are simply just glad to see another human who isn't trying to kill you as well as the zombies....
If all that is left is zombies and the human race...well....as other writers have tried to play around with, you are all against the zombies and intolerant of 'them'.... (see the CH4 series "humans" about robots for a similar idea, or "V"....
Obviously TWD doesn't try to play it too clever with that as the zombies are simply fodder to be slain with no hint of a mind or personality....but other zombie stuff has played with this.....District 9 did this with aplomb using aliens....genius, worth a watch if you haven't seen it...

My post got taken way out of context. I simply made an observation and attached a slick remark about liberals. And it is 2018 it is not even really a thing anymore, surely?
Its true, its not that serious at all and ive given it no more thought or energy beyond that.
