Eugene is trapped in the Sanctuary in the latest episode of The Walking Dead.
Here is our review!
ThisWalking Deadreview contains spoilers.
Unlike Negans over-the-top crudity, Eugenes lack of self-awareness is the humor this show continues to need.
His early moments with the Savior henchman and Negans wives are especially funny.
Its refreshing to see a character thats not interested in punching or shooting his way out of dangerous situations.
Hostiles and Calamities also continued to build Dwight up as a possible defector.
Its an effective twist that shows Dwights many layers as a character.
I think that the second half of the season has so far found the right balance of Negan.
Theres nothing redeeming about Negan, something that makes it really hard to enjoy hating him.
I just hate him.
It goes back to the shows insistence on adapting every single facet of Negans comic book counterpart.
It really hurts the character on screen.
That said, its going to be compelling as hell when these women finally take their oppressor down.
At least I hope thats what happens.
These women deserve their revenge.
