Negan finally comes to town on The Walking Dead season 7 episode 4.
Here is our review…
ThisWalking Deadreview contains spoilers.
It was refreshing to see Rick and Negan together again.
Im talking about the Judith scene at the end, of course.
After all, his arrogance got Abraham and Glenn killed, and Daryl forced into slavery.
That guilt illustrates the big difference between the hero and the villain.
At his very best, Rick is a selfless leader who wants to keep everyone alive.
This revelation isnt news to us, of course.
Negan exploits the hell out of that weakness, too.
I cant wait to see him rise up again.
Sometimes the performance is downright confusing, as Negan switches back and forth between rambunctious and threatening.
At his worst, hes shouting lines like Easy peasy lemon squeezy!
Hell, we could almost even say that Dwight came out a bit sympathetic in the end.
But tonight he was just back to being a big dick.
Instead, Dwights just a big bully loving the shit out of everything hes doing.
It made last weeks episode feel like a waste of time.
Service does a great job of progressing the story, even if its at a turtles pace.
Its better than nothing.
Im hoping for the same with Maggie next week.
Walking Points
Michonnes scenes are quite good this week, too.
Two storylines from the comics were set up in this episode that Im pretty excited about.
