The Review at the End of the Universe
‘New Best Friends’ So after last week’s mid season opener we are brought back to the normal pacing of The Walking Dead. This slow and steady build up is the show’s bread and butter now where there are episodes of build up and then a few episodes of action and with the war against the…
“Rock In The Road” The Walking Dead is back this week after a near two month hiatus over winter and picks up nearly almost exactly where it left off; with Rick and the Alexandria community attempting to recruit the other communities to help fight Negan. Before we get into the meat and bones of Rick…
“Sing Me A Song” The latest episode of The Walking Dead was a lot better than it has been recently, particularly as they dropped the annoying habit of only telling the story of either one person or a small group of people per episode. We got to see a few more characters in “Sing me…
“Swear” In the latest instalment of The Walking Dead, Tara stumbles upon a community made up of women only. “Swear“ was a stronger episode than the last two with a better story and better written. Alana Masterson put in a good performance and added a bit of humour to the series. Before this week we…
“Go Getters” The latest episode of The Walking Dead was a massive filler episode and the weakest of the season so far. In “Go Getters”, too much time was spent on secondary characters with scenes that dragged on for too long and scenes crowbarred in to the episode that didn’t really benefit the story at…
“The Cell” The latest instalment of The Walking Dead focuses in part on the situation Daryl finds himself in as one of Negan’s prisoners. I think it’s also fair to say that The Cell was more about Dwight than it is about Daryl. It gives us a sense of what kind of man Dwight is…
“The Well” This episode of The Walking Dead sees us arrive in The Kingdom ruled by King Ezekiel (Khary Payton).We learn a bit about his back story (at least what he claims to be his back story) in a revelation to Carol. This episode seemed to serve as an apology for the gore of last…
“The Day Will Come When You Won’t Be” After a long Summer of trying to guess who got the jaggy end of Negan’s barbed-wire baseball bat, we finally got our answer. The Walking Dead didn’t disappoint as we were given a double whammy. I think most people had their money on Glenn considering how devastating…
“Last Day on Earth” The most eagerly anticipated character in the entire run of The Walking Dead finally made his debut in the final episode of season 6. Jefferey Dean Morgan did a great job as Negan and bought a great malevolence to the character. Unfortunately we still don’t know who he ended up killing….
“East” “It’s gonna go wrong out here”, Glenn had warned Daryl earlier. And it certainly did. In this weeks installment of The Walking Dead, the show flirted with the idea of a riot breaking out. The lens was sprayed with what looked like Daryl’s blood after a bullet from Dwight struck from close range. We…
