[@talkinedz-rz1vl]

Nnegan was number 1

[@kenterminateddq5311]

Negan is one of the best villains on TV history.

[@slystone4892]

Agree

[@cooperhughes2659]

Everyone in the walking dead is a villain, better terms would likely be antagonist turned deuteragonist. Started off as the offset to the protagonist of TWD which was Rick and now he’s a deuteragonist in Dead City with Maggie as a protagonist for that series

[@frankcortes6852]

Unfortunately not anymore, he is a good guy now 😔

[@jonah.donohue]

Anti hero

[@frankcortes6852]

@@jonah.donohue How exactly is he an anti hero? Right now he is behaving just like the classic goody two shoes!! 😡

[@thugo2670]

I wasn’t expecting Negan to be my favorite character in the series.

[@goofysmp]

I knew it as soon as he said “Pissin’ our pants yet?” Most scene steeling villain I’ve ever seen tbh

[@sergoldenhandthejust1495]

Really????? I knew the second he and Lucille stepped out that RV

[@Shannon-vv6rr]

I can't help but love him. I burst out laughing at his lines, so menacing and charismatic. "I'm only kidding, a baseball bat doesnt have a p*ssy"

[@FairyDeadlySins]

Negan moments were the best parts of the entire walking dead series.

[@ZFAN675]

I agree. Such a iconic character.

[@HeavyCha]

Your gawd dayum straight

[@anthonylesley982]

Yup

[@wtc10]

Na early seasons‘ rick moments were even better

[@marlojoseph4954]

Hell ye!!!!

[@TheCommenterDragon]

Negan will always be one of my all time favorite TWD antagonists/reformed villains! He's the most badass one of them all!!!

[@ZFAN675]

He was awesome. Loved his redemption arc.

[@Canada1st_]

I wish the writers woulda had Negan kill them all

[@davidnordmeyer513]

I hated Negan's "redemption" arc. Totally unbelievable

[@ganeshgharase7509]

Yesssss Real Badass

[@th1rdsanity]

Negan’s interactions with the kids ( Carl, Judith, Lydia and Hershel jr) is my favorite Negan moments.

[@Reality.juiced]

The same with the girl in Dead City.

[@justapeacefulmanwhosbornin7291]

The character Negan Smith went from villain to anti-hero in the TWD franchise.

[@benlikestomine8893]

This man can clobber anyone’s head and still make you laugh

[@CrazeeAdam]

Some may say Governor was the best bad guy, but to me, Negan akways was the best. He's just amazing. And when he turned over a new leaf, he still was so amazing. Enjoyed every minute of him in the show. Thanks JDM!

[@devdecker7812]

Well Negan is the better character he’s the better bad guy but The gov was more evil

[@FLINTMICHIGANMEGABOWL]

Don’t be weird sir

[@mr.decencykeepinitreal6348]

Negan: “Little pigs, little pigs, let me in!” Me: 😂

[@HeavyCha]

Negan even though he killed glen, is my all time favorite character I hope there is a negan and Judith spinoff they were so fun to see on screen with each other

[@SexyButCurious]

Two scenes that was funny and enjoyable by Negan was when he said "Hot diggity dog, this place is magnificent" with the camera panning out in season 7 and when he reacted to Father Gabriel speaking suddenly behind him near Glenn and Abe graves also in season 7 lol😂😂

[@mr.decencykeepinitreal6348]

Film/TV actor Jeffrey Dean Morgan did a fantastic job playing Negan in all several seasons.

[@lukeryan1934]

His redemption was amazing.

[@tylerwatson9079]

I wasn’t too particularly interested in Negan as a villain, but his slow redemption into an antihero was one of the better story arcs in later seasons

[@TheRealBlackarrot]

His intro was awesome! Even though it turned off millions, I'm glad they went for it! Comic accuracy, deal with it.

[@ZeddRepresents]

Negan is my favorite character in The Walking Dead! There were so many interesting scenes and dialogues with him.

[@euclyptuseuphoria3759]

Negan is easily one of the greatest villains in television history, only some of the all time greats compare to this guy

[@frankcortes6852]

Too bad he is good now. 😡

[@euclyptuseuphoria3759]

@@frankcortes6852 still entertaining though

[@frankcortes6852]

@@euclyptuseuphoria3759 Nah! The characters was way better written as a villain. 👎 It’s kind of like feeling sorry for a villain like Freddy Krueger. He killed and raped 20 little kids, but because he is sorry afterwards it’s all cool now. I think that Freddy would SUCK as a good guy. 👎

[@mer6686]

Just like how Ryan Reynolds was born to play deadpool JDM was born to play Negan

[@iphillydi]

“are we shittin our pants yet”

[@thegsk]

pissin ... but i hope you got your shittin' pants on.

[@toastystg8345]

Every Negan scene is the best Negan moments

[@estellayescas4690]

Me too!!!! Love this guy!!

[@brownieelf6171]

Outside of the very first episode, “Here’s Negan” is the best of the best

[@hulklungss]

It was my favorite episode of all time

[@theredguy8746]

Not many characters in TV and movies have had such an impact on me that Negan has. He's so relatable to me because while the bad things I've done in my life obviously aren't as extreme as Negan's, I feel like I'm trying to make up for things I've done and Negan is doing the same. He's proof that change for the better is possible.

[@LoveHandle4890]

He’s just quite a character that Negan.

[@lechevaliersavage2416]

My fav negan moment is when he was talking with Maggie and she asked him if he would change anything what would it be and negan said "knowing what I know now. I would have killed all of you" something along those lines. Brutal fella

[@that.canadian.vaper.guyTCVG]

I LOVED Negan simply because he was played by Jeffrey Dean Morgan, as a huge fan of Supernatural. But JDM is such a great actor, he made you HAAAATE him for killing Glenn and breaking Rick's spirit. Then you start to slowly like him again, then the son of a bitch makes you fall back in love with him. Jeffrey Dean Morgan is one of my favorite actors, and this shows precisely why. So damn good.

[@frankcortes6852]

No way! He SUCKS as a good guy!

[@thegsk]

"We are all Negan.."

[@connorpowell8558]

Wild he went from killing a fan favorite to becoming a fan favorite - bravo JDM what an excellent character.

[@fullhousefrek]

him infiltrating the whisperers was cool.

[@Rescued2012]

One of TWD characters who actually has logic in actions👍❤️

[@LeonardoKlotz]

I would pay to see him as Thomas Wayne's BATMAN!!!

[@LemurTheMemer]

I love Negan❤

[@paulschreiber9685]

Where’s his “Father, not the father scene” with Rosita, Gabriel, and the doctor? That was an awesome scene!!

[@danielsantiagourtado3430]

Love your lists!😊😊😊❤❤❤

[@camerondixon2421]

This should be a top 30

[@RandomRoss]

He's just one of those villains you can't hate I mean he redeemed himself in the end but I think I liked him bad.

[@Violate..]

He wasnt even a villain the show is mostly looking at stuff to one pov if we look at it from negan angle rick team would have been the villains tbh, negan problem was his crew was too big and leaving other ppl in charge was bad because they did shit behind his back

[@cooperbourke7717]

Negan might just be my favourite character.

[@CrashingSpyro93]

Negan is one of my favorite characters but i wonder if Maggie is gonna end up killing him at the end of The Walking Dead: Dead City i kinda hope not but who knows lol

[@frankcortes6852]

No. Im sure that there will be a sad shocking twist in Dead City where at the end of the show Rick and Mitchonne returns from out of nowhere and they end up killing Negan. Remember that they don’t know about his redemption, so they will kill Negan from out of nowhere while he is giving an emotional speech to Maggie and her people. 😂

[@amberaegard]

I am so in love with this man

[@rodan9773]

My favourite Negan moment is Negans first appearance with all of them just his entrance his swagger and his strength confidence and Command are all on full display it's such a powerful disturbing and impactful moment i love it.

[@bigmateria2871]

Imagine Jeff Morgan ended up staying in Shameless back in the day lol. His performance as Negan definitely put some steam back in TWD for a good while.

[@bradley5431]

From the most hated to the most beloved character in twd universe ❤

[@helixmoore7636]

Acting skills 👌

[@robertfrazier6563]

I think leaving Maggie is Negan best moment ( Not as high as his Origin but one of his best moment ). True Maggie wasn't been seen in years ( at the same time her seeing Negan out & about don't give her good vibe ) it show a person do change overtime however threaten that individual will bring their oldself out opening old wounds not healed

[@Ali093]

I was hoping the number 1 spot would just be his introduction. One of the most tense and menacing intros of a villain I've ever seen. And not even a mention of the time Negan and Gabriel were stuck in the trailer together with a hoard surrounding the outside. Such an amazing scene.

[@amberap2827]

The way Negan became my favorite character, he is the GOAT!!!!

[@slystone4892]

Negan was the man.

[@theblueshadow2695]

My favorite Negan moment was when he acted mad after M read him Carls letter…we all know it effected him at least a little…even if he seemed heartless he did care about Carl the way he cares about Judith…he’s done bad but is not all bad and is very comedic that’s why I put up with him. I like his funny moments though.

[@HappywifeTaylor]

"Liitle pig, little pig". "Let me in!"

[@chrisdicaprio3723]

I enjoyed every bit of this TV show.

[@MrJackrussell12]

Number 2 was a very chilling moment. You could tell all his work to become a better person was not for himself. He did care about the people he once called enemies. Negan is the best character. Under Daryl though lol

[@RobSyerGaming]

One of the best redemption arcs I've ever seen. After killing Glenn this guy should of been one of the most hated TV villains ever but he was one of the best characters on the show

[@mr.decencykeepinitreal6348]

My 2nd most favorite male character in the entire franchise co-created by Robert Kirkman.

[@mirzaali529]

Negan is the best villain on the television

[@frankcortes6852]

Too bad he WAS the best villain on the television 😔

[@svetony7362]

I think we might just got ourselves new best scene in Dead city season 1 episode 2, Negan is rain man

[@amielynn8506]

Negan was the best bad guy in this show. He did some very bad things but he always respected kids which I thought was interesting

[@snoozy04]

Negan is also a pretty good Tekken character.

[@ma53jg]

Jeffrey Dean Morgan did a terrific job as the complex, fascinating Negan. Great list!

[@Gurukid800]

Negan is Thee BEST Villain without powers to exist

[@BatmanPops]

Negan did some unforgettable/unforgivable things in his pass yikes 👀😬😅😅

[@Sawyer-Desroche]

My favourite is when he’s stuck in the trailer with Gabriel and is forced to use the guts tactic to escape

[@BatmanBurritos93]

“Stabbing Spencer” he fucking gutted him 🤣

[@wrenneinzbern]

That rv scene with Rick and Negan pissed me off why Rick didn't just kill him.

[@wrenneinzbern]

@OMG-jv6vb The problem was Negan just had too much plot armor and they made Rick a wuss too long before finally fighting back.

[@wesleymiller7895]

He def took over best character after Abraham left

[@jacobdenness8659]

Number one makes sense, might have chosen the same

[@devinkemp6198]

A lot of ppl tuned out after the Rick died including me but coming back and finshing the series last year I can confidently say if your on the edge go watch it now it showed me what kinda actor Jeffery dean morgan is and he’s up there with the best

[@shortyy8881]

He deserves an oscar , grammy, golden globe , emmy , everything !

[@thomaslazarek6835]

Dead City. Episode 2. Who's there? The "knock knock" scene. The reason everyone hated Negan so much was because we really liked Glenn. And seeing him do "the Negan show" for Maggie's benefit was eye opening.

[@yusufobaidat4730]

Negan saved the show

[@alesaenz]

Negan is one of my Top10 All-time favorite TV characters. I'm surprised that it wasn't included when he deals with his wife on "Here's Negan", easily my #1 moment. In an update including "Dead City" should be included too when he returns to "Ol' Negan" mode to defend the group of an invading party.

[@chromicapop4595]

I love how he developed

[@kain772]

Got a new one. Knock knock!

[@mitchyman528]

Yeah if they waited a bit longer to get that on the list 🤦🏼‍♂️

[@variousgames157]

negan himself explained about that "19" .... as far as i remember, negan said, " i just decided not to help" well...my buoy got a fair point there :D

[@EL-13]

my favs is the pool table scene 🤣🤣🤣

[@EyB0ss69]

Abraham and Glenn were Negan's Greatest Hits

[@variousgames157]

from " i will kill ur loved ones and later piss on their dead body" to " i will die for ur loved ones"...damn the best character development in the entire tv history

[@darksoulnj]

"Fans were also put off by the gruesome deaths." We were?? I thought it was fantastic! The BALLS that the showrunners showed in taking out two beloved heroes at the same time are legendary!

[@RayMcElroy50]

It's a joke. It's all a joke. Mother, forgive me.

[@chillemdafoe1738]

Negan rick and daryl were the trinity that carried this show

[@purplebutterfly1168]

I wasn't expecting to see him in shameless. Ever since watching twd and other shows I see twd actors in movies I didn't even knew they were in lol negan is the perfect person for this show

[@Sugerblast1993]

For some reason a few people made some comparisons him to vegeta from dragon ball

[@captainduck3421]

OFFICER! OFFICER FRIENDLY!

[@smelledgeface1867]

It has to be Negan's "introduction" to Glenn and Abraham.

[@grandmastere2444]

Negan can beat the governor anyday

[@xthexxjackalx7621]

I believe Negan was true in heart... He was pure human

[@hulklungss]

My favorite scene is “little pig, little pig, LET ME IN!

[@CRJII]

Double execution is number4?!!! I can’t wait for the rest of the list? 😧

[@allaboutjapan237]

who ever created negan..... just...... cheers to you.....wow

[@tim-9071]

Negan: Im just the guy thats makes your kid spaghetti

[@mrbrown6822]

Negan was a “bad guy” cause he portrayed that. He was never evil. He killed when he had to. He didn’t enjoy it. He did it to protect his people. In my eyes. Rick was more violent and caused more harm to his people than negan did. Negan never killed when he didn’t HAVE to. It was a character he played in order to maintain peace. Rick was a violent person in his heart. Negan wasn’t. And also. Glen would be alive if Daryl didn’t attack him. Glens death is on Daryl’s hands. Not Negan.

[@jokerl3gacy635]

Negan and the whispers were the best parts walking dead

[@ukrainica9121]

"His Lt. Trevor Phillps..."

[@GrimReaper-lx3cl]

the last clip of Negan i wouldve done it too

[@patu8010]

I watched probably half of the show. I'm surprised to learn that Negan was around for many years after his introduction. All the villains before him always got killed sooner or later.

[@TheNukedNacho]

JDM absolutely killed these moments, and the role. And a lot of people.

[@SICPARVISMAGNA3018]

Negan is by far the walking dead universe's best character besides lee Everette

[@goofysmp]

Still obsessed with how good Negan would’ve been in scenes with Carl post Ricks exit. One of the worst decisions in TV history

[@user-jl9ef6jb7e]

Fav scene carl pass me the roll

[@thealmightyduck335]

It's honestly amazing how much the writers made you want Negan to die when he was introduced, but then made you want him to live by the end because he was such an amazing character.

[@grandmastere2444]

Trevor Phillips ( Simon) turns zombie

[@Eclipses915]

I love negan
