    I'd be interested in people views on Negan and how he is portrayed in the show. Are we as viewers supposed to hate him, because to be honest I don't. He is just meh, to be honest and this is probably quite shallow but he is too good looking and charming to hate. Yeh so he has killed a couple of people but who cares ,he's hot and has a cool leather jacket so he can get away with it. I am not fussed either way if he lives or not. Compare this to GOT and another villain, Ramsey Bolton, now he was a real turd of a man who I couldn't wait to watch die. But that hatred was built up over a season or two so perhaps I am being too quick to judge the Negan portrayal.

    Season 7 has been pretty dire though if I'm honest.

    Neegan is a giant turd and the first episode he was scary as F!!! He is good looking, makes it easier to fool people. He killed Glenn (oh, and Abraham-sorry!). I hate him for that enough.

    I do think we are supposed to hate to love him though yes.

    Knights and castles would work well and other medieval tactics and warfare would work well here against zombies (walkers) I think.

    Seems to be this way every season. I've been watching since it first aired and there have been some boring episodes and others were action packed. Can't wait for it to come back on!

    I like this season so far. Its just taking the show in a different direction, that's all. Weve never seen the group so beaten down before (no pun intended.) I love Negan. Not because he is so evil, but because he is funny too. I cant help but laugh at some of his lines. Theres about to be an all out war...cant get more exciting than that. There have been other seasons I didn't care for (like the season with the governor), but this one has been terrific so far. I think its just a bit slow laying the foundation for the all out war...but it makes sense to devote entire episodes to new groups.

    Well,

    You can't kill Negan. Rick knows he has to take out the Survivors as there will just be more people to take Negan's place. So taking out Negan isn't enough.

    Also Dwight said, they where all much worse until Negan came so you have loyalty through survival. Also all of Negan's minions are power tripping so they're more likely to kill everyone that had a hand in killing Negan then figure out who should lead.

    So it's not Negan it's Negan and all the Survivors that has to be taken out. Since there are so many of them, they have to band with the other communities if they want to stand a chance. Which is what the 2nd half of the season looks like it will be.

    So what would happen if, in a giant war against the Survivors, Dwight took Negan out, in front of the warring masses in a public area seen by all, then screams "Enough!" ...and everyone lays down their arms and sings Kumbaya. That would ensure that there would be no retaliation by the survivors...then Dwight takes over and they start live somewhat harmoniously until.....

    A huge part of the problem with the show is that nothing they do is really shocking anymore. Yeah, sure, the way this season started, was graphic, but other than who it happened to, you've sorta seen that before with countless zombies. Negan is basically every other alive antagonist the series has put on (leads a group, prone to violent outbursts, thinks what he's doing is justifiable towards the greater good, etc). At this point, I'm only still watching to see what happens when they finally catch up to the comics and if the Negan storyline goes in the same direction (they've already had a few super subtle hints that it may).

    I predict that the season will end with Rick cutting Negan's throat, and it will be a beautiful stand up and cheer moment.

    Man, I've gotta say I can't way to see the reaction from folks if they stick with the comics...
