NEVER AGAIN DO IT!

Warning: Spoilers
I ranked this as a 6/10 but the show was on a whole, much better. I think it was a 9/10 really but they lose 3 points because yet again, Rick can't hit Negan.

Let me get this right TWD writers. Rick Grimes, Sheriff Rick Grimes, professionally trained Sheriff Rick Grimes, who for the last 7 years has had to go for head shots to kill zombies, can't hit Negan from 40 feet away with an automatic rifle? Not only can't he hit him outside, he can't hit him in a staircase as well? Sorry, not a lot of room to zig-zag your way out of getting shot on a stairwell, but somehow Negan does. And really Rick, you run out of bullets? You blast 450 rounds into the bottom of an overturned car and for the first time in 8 years you run out of amo. Seriously TWD writers, NEVER EVER use this again. If Rick has a shot at Negan again, he can't miss. Never place the characters in that situation again. It was farcical in the season premier and it is just lazy now. Heck Simon is lecturing the saviours on not killing the hilltop, just wound them. The Saviours can aim for limbs but Rick can't hit the chest or back of Negan? Horrible. Never let it happen again writers.

Good news ladies. In the post apocalyptic world, a pregnant woman doesn't have a baby belly. Something to look forward.

Rick spilling the beans on Simon was good. That was well done. Well written. Lots of action in the show. A little bit of conflict within the groups and finally what appears to be a wrap up of the series. Lots of talk on peaceful rebuilding of the world. Couple that with the helicopter from a few weeks ago and it appears that the rebirth of civilisation is close.
