Another awesome detail I haven’t seen many people mention, is how the opening credits theme song (the same used for Rick and Michonne in the finale) is the same soundtrack that played in the scene where they first met in season 3. It’s all connected..

[@Brandonhatesmayo]

I'm going to be honest and never ever bothered me that they didn't cut Rick's hand off in the show because even the Creator said that he regretted doing that because it limited what Rick could do and I really do think sometimes the book suffered from him losing the hand.

[@dazbeal5438]

he didn't need to chop all his hand, just lil finger and ring finger would b enough to slip out the dumb shit!

[@Flomas98]

Would love to see you carry on doing these videos for each episode. I love the walking dead and was sad when a lot of people dropped off watching it. Doing these review videos shows that a lot of people still enjoy the show.

[@admiralaokiji7889]

the walking dead universe is probably the most milked property EVER. It was a cultural phenomenon in the early to mid 2010s and they should've capped it and wrapped up the story in 6-7 seasons. I enjoyed seasons 1-3 a lot but it just fell off with no direction. Greed can ruin a lot of things.

[@NWEDC]

Between a family with two small children, a 60+ hr a week career, and everything that goes along with those things, I simply have no time these days to watch shows. I do have time to listen to cliff notes. I love these breakdowns.

My thought is that they killed Glen twice and I'm never going to watch another walking dead anything ever again.

[@Hambone4815]

Clap. Please do videos for each episode. I need more twd.

[@randall-thehorrorwriter]

You should do a huge video covering the entire season with notes you take on each ep. That way you don't spread yourself to thin & the show will only be kinda like work with you just taking notes, so you can enjoy it or destroy it with just one video when it's over. But then what do I know I'm just a weird dude on the internet.

[@osacrpro]

So glad rick is back and I hope the show keeps up this amazing momentum, seeing the CRM finally after years and years of anticipation and their role being played this way excites me

[@pyroAdapt]

Dude I hope we get to see a flashback that shows the immediate moments of him getting to the CRM in the chopper and going through probably some intense surgery for that wound he suffered before the bridge and of course being blown up lol. White gonna be so crazy and intense probably gonna feel similar to the season 5 introduction with how unsettling it will be. Its gonna be such a feeling of panic when he wakes up and realizes he's been taken

[@joemclemore6624]

Paul you SOB, im in! Way back when you were doing Walking Dead breakdowns I found your channel. And like you I thought it fell off. I wasn't going to even watch this one but then you had to upload. We'll go on this journey together!

[@jordankelsall1036]

The CRM took down omaha in the world beyond because omaha was becoming a burden from a resources standpoint. "The CRM's modelling and statistics began to indicate that Omaha was becoming overly reliant on the Civic Republic for protection and resources, so rather than engage in protracted rationing and a gradual decline, Beale opted to wipe the Omaha settlement out completely, thus protecting the Civic Republic from being dragged down by its ally"

[@sophiawilson8696]

In beyond show the character says that human race is on edge of collapse why would kill city of Ohma and College Campus of 8000 people? This is stupid!?.

[@j.o2454]

Really curious if Morgan will make an appearance in the show. Just a theory. In the Daryl series there is a part where they show a flashback of Carol speaking to Daryl over the walkie. She tells him someone is back but some static cuts out the message. I honestly think it's Morgan since he returned at the end of Fear to Eastman cabin before he was going to head to Alexandria. Was thinking about how epic it would be if all the shows tied up, especially with the 6 biggest characters from TWD: 1) Daryl Dixon S2 is already taking place and Carol will most likely be helping him. 2) Dead City S2 is already in the works. Maggie will most likely head back to help Negan. 3) Other interesting points is that at the end of TWD and FTWD: - Mercer is heading up the commonwealth. - Ezekiel is heading up Alexandria. - Dwight and Sherry are heading up the Sanctuary with FTWD survivors. - Oceanside is still there. 4) What if The Ones Who Live S1 was to end with Rick and Michonne heading back to Alexandria and either a follow up season or series was to happen where the others (Daryl, Carol, Negan, Maggie (Hilltop leader), Ezekiel (Alexandria leader), Mercer (Commonwealth leader), Dwight (Sanctuary leader), Oceanside and Morgan help Rick and Michonne to prepare for the impending attack of Beale and the CRM. At the end of it all Rick takes everyone to the City of the CRM.

There was a commercial advert from forever ago when the show first came out where it showed him with his missing arm more in line with the comic. He was answering the phone that wasn’t plugged in to the wall. It was cool/weird that they diverged from the original story.

When Rick disappear from the show, I just couldn't watch anymore, I felt like closure was needed. I love the first episode.

[@ladyhotep5189]

I recommend going back. Even tho Rick was gone, seasons 9&10 are some of the best since the early seasons. 11 was good too but the whisperer Era is some scary shit.

[@DAIBLA81]

@@ladyhotep5189 Let me rephrase that I watched every single episode of the entire series, just my heart wasn't in it but I still watched. I missed him because to me he made the show.

[@pyroAdapt]

My dude idk where you get the idea that the show was "missing" ricks hand being cut off almost like you're saying it felt naked without it. They changed that for a reason, because it was a bad decision in the comics and they never should've done it. It limited Rick way too much for the entire story and should not have been done as early as the governor arc. At least with this shows way of doing it, they made it feel somewhat deserved and hes been around long enough that they've earned it. Almost nobody was upset that Rick didn't lose his hand in the original show lol. Its a small minority of people who think other wise for the most part from what I've seen and it's usually the people who think the comic is just better in all ways for whatever reason even tho the comic had a lot of poor writing in many places.

[@BuckyBarnesNC]

[@patrioticcat5768]

Small details that people missed (spoilers below): - when Rick was seen eating it was a call back to when he was eating in season 1 - when character died by a walker it was a callback to TWD season 4 - when they used a gun to shoot something it was a callback reference to TWD season 2 when they used a gun - when you see that main character contemplate about something it's also a callback to TWD season 3 when they did the same thing - when you see michone is walking In the Forrest it's a clear callback to TWD when she was also walks in a Forrest - when character said something and use the word LOST a chacarter from a show with a similar name showed up. That's a callback to when a show with the similar name was airing. - when you see the helicopter it's another reference to TWD when they see a helicopter too This show is so good. The only thing that would make it better would be more "I knew what that is" like seeing a young girl who the main character remembers from previous shows. That'd be a great show indeed. Top quality Shit and I am here for it 😎👍 I hope we see more walkers get stabbed in the forehead. Not because it's stupid in every way possible but because it's a callback to TWD when they did that too.

Kinda wished that they did not cut his hand off. Even Kirkman said he regretted making that decision and plus it just did not make sense. Yeah, he wanted to escape, but he could had accepted the role and escaped without cutting his hand off.

[@craigfin3222]

Another note in the comics he gets his hand cutoff, but in the show he chose to. However, someone with Rick's background would know how much blood a person would lose and that trying to escape while bleeding to death would be stupid/next to impossible.

[@MonarchLMC]

​@@craigfin3222 He contemplated taking his own life anyway so if he cut it off he would either escape or die, which is perfectly what he was trying to do throughout the episode. I think it works when you think about it

The first episode was amazing, but. The reunion between Michonne and Rick was very underwhelming, it wasn’t like the other reunions from other seasons, when the group were separated for a long time, or like Glenn, and Maggie found each other again. I remember season five when Carol rescued them Rambo style. but that’s my only gripe I really loved the episode. I hope it gets better with each episode.

[@signe2023]

I thought I was in the minority here, but I felt the same way. As much as I have always loved Rick & Michonne as a couple, this reunion seemed a bit lackluster to me. Maybe they were both too tired and weary!
