Badd Medicine here and its Walking Dead reaction time
Was this the end of Rick Grimes and Michonne?
Sheriff Deputy Rick Grimes wakes up from a coma to learn the world is in ruins and must lead a group of survivors to stay alive. Sheriff Deputy Rick Grimes gets shot in combat and awakens to a zombie apocalypse. He meets a group on the outskirts of Atlanta and, soon, becomes their leader. The Walking Dead: The Ones Who Live presents an epic love story of two characters changed by a changed world. Kept apart by distance. By an unstoppable power. By the ghosts of who they were. Rick and Michonne are thrown into another world, built on a war against the dead… And ultimately, a war against the living. Can they find each other and who they were in a place and situation unlike any they’ve ever known before? Are they enemies? Lovers? Victims? Victors? Without each other, are they even alive - or will they find that they, too, are the Walking Dead?

Thanks for your reaction guys. You guys rock 😊 Facebook story last night ruined the ending for me. But I'm happy to here watching with Badd Medicine all the way from Ireland ☘️
Early prediction fellas in that we will get that Daryl & Rick reunion during the finale ep of his show which to me would be a perfect way for that to end as this show was solely centered on Rick & Michonne reuniting together & home to their children. And now we have the good possibility when Carol finds Daryl that she's gonna tell him Rick made it back home & that's why she was free to leave the kids to go search for Daryl cause it bugged me back when I saw that Carol had left kids leaving them essentially without a parent figure other than Ezekiel. So I do think we will have a bros reunion, we just gotta wait and be patient.❤💞❤️
Great discussion guys , u basically brought up all my points , we all want a showed reunion of Alexandria and gabe and all those with rick and seeing their reaction to rick being alive and his hand and ricks reaction to whisperers Tara Jesus death , I do think the Daryl reunion will happen , but I just don’t see how they will give a reunion for rick and negan/mAggie and rick and everyone else , due to it not really having a place on screen now , due to the show being over
I think we know this show, the Daryl show, and the upcoming 'Carol Show' and 'Fear' are within the same _Timeline._ Maggie is not dealing with the CRM re-established but with some other group, it seems. I agree with your opinion on leaving the prosthetic behind.
The ENEMY was the CONCEPT of _the Future & Safety._
The overall issue for some TWD fans is that they create their own narrative and are disappointed when their theories, ideas, and predictions don't match the actual story. Everyone is customizing their own version instead of taking it at face value.
Yeah, I agree with you
This plus unrealistic expectations is why people are disappointed. I doubt we’ll see Rick or Michonne ever again besides maybe a cameo like Judith & RJ did this episode.
Yes. projecting all day
Fr the walking dead community can be so toxic. Just cause an episode didn’t play out how YOU wanted doesn’t mean it’s trash 😂
Facts
I love the ending. I couldn't see it ending any other way. He finally made his way back to his family.
I can digg it
yeah its the right ending vs him dying again. It felt a bit rushed but yeah
I don’t know why people thought Rick or Michonne would die. This series has been in the works for years now and TWD fans would be outraged if either went out without reuniting with their family.
And the show is called THE ONES WHO LIVE. The stars lived lol
Every time people said that or worried in this episode I was like, they have the strongest plot armor. What show are y’all watching? 😂
@@NinaPBRight?! It’s like watching for 11 seasons and expecting Daryl or Carol to die so randomly.
Most people thought Michonne would die because it seemed like Danai didn’t want to be involved any more and move on with other projects.
@@bigboi0402 Nah that's BS! She just like Andy didn't want to stay on the main show any longer and left. This serie right there they wanted it and executive produced it. No one forced them to be there.
They have been wanting her dead since season 6.
They said from day 1. This is RICK AND MICHONNE'S story. A love story. Not about building on other characters. They wanted to wrap up their story for the fans. They said that wayyy before the show started. What aren't people understanding?
I think is kinda dissapointing... like... they been telling us the CRM was going to be the biggest enemy in the whole twd universe... and got destroyed in only one episode?? For real? I mean... 500 year plan to rebuild the world, the biggest military on the planet, managed to keep Rick Grimes locked in for 8 years and got wiped out in only ONE episode just because "Rick and Michonne together can do anything"? Like it seemed so unreallistic that in one episode they returned to cascadia base and were able to kill Beale, Thorne, the whole CRM army and military, make the civic republic and portland find out about the true evil intentions of the CRM and at the end returning safe and sound to Judith and RJ who were specifically there waiting for them to land? In only one episode. I mean i understand they wanted to give it and end and not make a season 2 or make movies, and give us the happy ending we wanted. But i feel it was at the very least... rushed. Like they made us thought Beale was the biggest menace of the whole universe... and he appeared less than Gareth, and was much easier to kill... then kill Thorne and the whole of the CRM in the same episode... it just seems odd to me, like, we got the ending we wanted, but way too soon, like everything went perfect and as planned for the first time in their lifes... in only one episode, when there were like 3 episodes which their point was Michonne trying to gain back the Rick Grimes she once knew. They spent a whole episode chasing Jadis so in the end she died, but in only one episode they wiped out the whole CRM, saved portland and told everyone the CRM was evil, killed Pearl Thorne, killed Beale, AND returned to their children all in an one hour lapsus?? I would feel like an idiot if i was with the endlings on the world beyond since their whole objective was doing the thing Rick and Michonne did in only ONE episode, and they couldn't do it on an entire season. Like... the world beyond was supposed to teach us about how dangerous the CRM, Jadis and Beale actually were... and they just ended them in one episode, very similar with what game of thrones did to the long night. But anyways, that's only what i believe and u may or not agree with me. Feel free to tell me your thoughts
Because fans make their own theories and predictions and get set on that in their mind 🙄 All these prediction channels kinda ruined people just going in and enjoying a show for what it is. They want this and that and Beale and the CRM, etc…
@@tomasgetze4330copy & Paste much?
@@tomasgetze4330 Again, it's a love story. All of the other stuff is background noise.
@@sociald4515 wanted to show my opinion in several places to see people reaction. Got a problem with that?
Just remember... the point of the show is Michonne finding Rick and bringing him home. Everything else was window dressing.
This was a Rick & Michonne love story, but that doesn't mean other parts of the story can't have depth or character development. I do think they had that in their script and things were cut out for whatever reason. Overall this was a great series. 🤙🤙
@@BaddMedicineExactly. All these people saying “YoU gUyS jUsT dOnT GeT iT! IT’s a LoVe StOrY!!” have never written a screenplay, script or novel in their lives.
Love stories still make logical sense, you guys 😂 and will still focus on character arcs and main story plots and try to MINIMIZE plot holes.
These same ppl act like others can’t have an opinion different from them 🤷🏼♀️The writing was terrible in the finale. Rushed like they were speed running through it (GoT anyone??), plot holes galore, insanely stupid in some parts, but the ending did make me shed a few tears with the exception of RJ’s cringy line lol!
Way too many things wrong with it.
We’re not disappointed that we didn’t get FAN SERVICE-we’re disappointed bc their actions were nonsensical and not thought out.
They could’ve made it even 8 episodes and I’m sure it would’ve been a lot better, but yet again they end up putting filler in it somehow 🤦🏼♀️
Anyway rant over 😆
@@BaddMedicineblame AMC. Danai has mentioned a few times. Also their budget was reduced. A lot of stuff happened behind the scenes... but I'm happy with the final product. Hell, we all need to see more happy endings on screens lol
I honestly don't get why some people don't like the ending. They say that Rick and Michonne taking out the CRM doesn't make sense which is funny because 90% of the CRM Military don't know what the other 10% do and Rick and Michonne killed that 10% in this episode. Also this show wasnt really all about the CRM it was about Ricks and Michonne's love as corny as that sounds. Me personally this ending is good enough. I'm happy that Rick and Michonne got the happy ending that they deserve.
The reason why Rick doesn't have his hand is because its symbolism of Rick leaving the CRM behind. Also Rick can get a new prosthetic hand just like Aaron.
Also the Bunny that Michonne picked up was a reference to the Walker Girl that Rick killed in S1 ep.
Imo the plan being easy made sense considering that the Red Striped CRM Soldiers are the most loyal to the CRM master plan so if anyone did see both Rick and Michonne they would think that they got a order from a higher up like Beale and would think that they are loyal to a tee and also they where busy with the briefing.
I would love a CRM prequel show. I hope that we do get one.
All good call backs
Plot armor the only reason they’re alive lol
@@JohnSmith-er5gvit just has to be plausible...
Also he can get another one made since the CRM is now more open.
Yea I instantly thought about Aaron's prosthetic in similarity Rick would most likely get a replacement
It was easy because that was the Cascadia base. They weren’t in Philly. It was a small group they had assembled to prepare for the summit. They were the only ones aware/ complicit in all the shit the CRM had been doing. And Michonne had been saying for two episodes that THEY didn’t need to execute a plan to take out the CRM. They needed to destroy the file, get the details from Rick’s briefing, and take the info to the people at the CRM in Philly because THEY would take back their own community and that’s what happened - listen to the newscast at the end of the episode.
Still amazing how you have all the highest level officers together, with enough weapons to kill them all 100x over, and a skeleton security crew.
Sirs, perhaps we can have all the chemical ordinance, more than 50 feet from all the officers, and secured?
I loved this episode. Most importantly, Rick and Michonne got a happy ending with Judith and RJ.
This show sucked
@@kdizzle901You have questionable taste in shows.😂
The hand reminds him of everything the CRM took from him. He was leaving the CRM behind.
We acknowledge the symbolism in the review. It's not a smart move as that was one hell of a tool in a zombie apocalypse.
@BaddMedicine, yeah, as a person who has dealt with trauma, triggers are real, and you try to avoid them when you can. Rick has 8yrs of trauma to get through. With PTSD, they teach you about triggers. Danai said they did extensive research on PTSD.
He only left it behind because that hand allowed him to fight off the guy in the elevator. Besides, he will still remember the CRM every time he looks at his missing hand.
It's almost as bad as professor Xavier getting rid of his wheelchair and crawling around all day around his school. Charles's wheelchair was given to him by Harvey Weinstein before he found out he raped and sexually assaulted a bunch of people.
Professor! The wheelchair didn't rape anyone.
While I get some people feel this was rushed I thought the pace was just about perfect. Nothing was too dragged out and it was such a tight pace that was well done and kept me entertained
Having them take out the army the way they did I liked cuz it was actually believable rather than having a big unrealistic gun fight and I do appreciate that the CRM isn’t completely gone so there’s future possibilities to explore more of the city, the fallout from these events etc if they really wanted
They set out to tell a love story of Rick and Michonne and they more than accomplished that. While I would love a whole episode of Rick catching up with everyone, obviously that can’t happen so they gave us the most important reunions and the rest can be left to the imagination although I am open to seeing more if they do go that way
I imagine considering Norman wants a Rick/Daryl reunion they can always bring him back in small doses but as far as this series, it perfectly closes the story on Rick and Michonne while leaving the door open for other things
Similar to the cannibals in the main show, I do appreciate that Beale was a short term villain and not dragged out for multiple seasons which can work but the shows has already done that before and we learned enough about Beale and who he is and with a great actor like Terry O’Quinn, he made the right impact in such a short time and because it was short term I appreciate him a lot more
Plus it was great to see Rick be the one to kill him
They managed to pull off the stakes and threat of the CRM without oversharing too much of what they do, sure I would have liked to have seen more but this show gave me more then enough to understand how the CRM works and there is always the opportunity to explore more with them in other spin offs potentially
I did find it very poetic that Rick and Michonne took the army out in the exact way the CRM were taking out communities, nice bit of poetic justice and considering I’m sure Beale has a son, there’s deffo room to explore the fallout of that event
I thought they would run into more speedbumps and it would take longer for that plan to happen
Yeah and I bet you enjoyed GoT’s last few episodes too LOOOL
@@jacks1bonnielass Nope I couldn’t stand GOT Season 8
The pace was AWFUL
I think some fans started missing the point of what this series would be. From the start Andy, Danai and Gimple said this would be giving a closing end to these two characters and their story arcs. They crafted the CRM within this show to be a defeatable force its why they structured that only less than 10% of the force was committing those atrocities and not the entire military, that way they would be a reasonable force these characters could defeat. Too many people kept seeing this show as an "expansion" of the TWD universe and not the conclusion to a story. Loved it so much and love Andy and Danai for doing it!
I mean, in fairness, it's new episodes with new storylines in a new location previously unseen, so it's absolutely an expansion of the universe. And it stars 2 characters from an ensemble show. You can't just write all criticism away with "they said it was a love story, it's not supposed to make sense in the greater universe..."
Too many people keep seeing it as an expansion because this is how it was marketed to us. So it is fair. They just didn't deliver under the cover of "it's a love story"
@@annrozhets6562 how was it marketed that way? AMC heavily promoted it as a love story. Andy and Danai also said it would be the conclusion of their story when they announced it. It was announced as a limited series.
@@sparglass Gimple talked a lot that the things we are about to learn will change everything forever. But even if you didn't pay attention to the interviews their trailers highly implied that. And the "universe is expanding" was written all over their spin offs. They never said it was a 6 episodes limited series, they said "we'll see where it goes".
And they have been building that Eshelon briefing since episode one. This was one thing that was mentioned in every episode, they were building it up and emphasised it in every trailer for the next episode. Only to deal with it within like 30 seconds after a several minute dialogue from Beale. It's very underwhelming and it is just bad writing. I love the walking dead though it was never even close to top TV shows like Breaking Bad etc. writing wise. I see it more as my guilty pleasure so I have no problem admitting that the writing was extremely poor and rushed, lacking resolution for relationships and plot lines with over the top ridiculous explosions and grenade surviving.
@@sparglass Even though it was only 10% of the force there, it was still unrealistic for them to be so easily defeatable. They defeated them easier than they defeated Negan. That's not good writing
The ones who live. This show was about the love between Rick and Michonne. About getting Rick home to his kids. Thats all i wanted. Im satisfied.
As for things being unbelievable. Well, we're in a show about zombies. Lol. We've seen people come out unscathed miraculously. Thats nothing new. He should have kept the hand though. I didn't understand that. I also agree that too much time was spent with Thorne. I also think too much time was spent saying mushy lines lol "love doesn't die"😂 ok love.
All in all im happy. Rick is home.I hope we get a quick scene of Daryl and Rick reuniting. That would be awesome. But just like someone else mentioned, people have theories and all this made up shit in their head and then get upset and call something trash when their head movies dont play out on screen.
That ending just hit different and I think it was a satisfying , good conclusion to the Grimes family story. People who have watched this show in its entirety from the beginning know how much these characters have been through. The moment between judith and rick was something everyone wanted to see and it was awesome. The journey made the emotions really come out in that moment. During episode 5 I didn’t know if they could finish it in 1 more episode but I guess they did it for the most part. Good series and would like to see a reunion with Daryl/Carol/others in the future.
Judith getting her parents back was so important to me. She lost everyone she loved. Her biological mother,( and) father technically. Her brother her dad (rick) her mom(michonne) and her uncle(Daryl).
They could've gotten home without having to deal with the CRM with the invincibility cheat code activated. Let the CRM be the next big bad wolf. Who is left now for sake of wrapping their story??? Who???
@@beastlydevil777Mason Beale, CRM operatives in communities all over the world, Madame Genet and her army, variant walkers, etc.
The between Rick meeting his son RJ was something fans wanted to see as well. Judith isn't the only Grimes child everyone wanted to see.
YES i can’t see why any one would be against this tbh
I was pleased with the series. I feel like it served it's purpose. We wanted Rick to make it home and ultimately that's what happened.
I don't think RJ was in the slideshow presentation, I think Michonne saw a kid who reminded her of RJ.
Right
Yep
Correct. Those were all kids from Portland, so it couldn't have been RJ.
That DEFINITELY was not RJ in the slide presentation…just another lighter -skinned African American boy that reminded her of her own children
I think you're right. Besides, their son, Rick James, didn't live in Portland.
Would of been a cool little call-back if they ended it with Rick looking at his family and saying "I found them"
That's a good one.
Or, "I hope I don't lose you all like I did my other family. Very likely to happen with my erratic nature." (Slow fade into credits)
You know, due to Beale’s character description I never expected more of him. The show’s description, in so many words, say that he is a background force that is powerful putting others out to do his dirty work. With this, I think of him as being assassinated. Assassinations seem to be so sudden. If there’s people who seen the assassination coming, they’re considered crazy or keep it to themselves etc. Again, just his character description, describes the screen time he’ll have. That he’s “The Background Charge.”
I think it was a symbol of leaving the hand behind saying that he's done with this CRM never mind oak made a good point 😉😂
He could have left his gear, clothes, and weapons too, running around nekked to prove an even greater point. A streaker at that final officer ceremony may have been the peaceful way to protest and end the CRM's military tyranny.
Great series. Was a lot more epic than I was expecting it to be. Didn't realize the whole world was at stake. And that last scene made me tear up. Pretty sure they tore down the Alexandria set already, would've been nice to see that again...but overall great finale episode.
I think Rick pulled the gernade of a solider that was like 2 or 3 bodies away then used those other 3 as meat sheilds. I think it was a little call back to glenn and the dumpster.
"That was RJ ," killed me😂😂
For a second i believed him 😂
I really enjoyed it and thought it wrapped things up nicely…what do people expect from a limited series?
Too many fans depend on their own theories, predictions, creating some bigger story in their mind. I loved the series overall and the movie type pace and story was a great fit for TWD. I’m glad that they focus on Rick and Michonne and not Beale and other characters. Rick finally made it back home and reunited with his kids! Happy ending deserved 👍
The boy you thought looked like RJ actually looked like the son michone lost
Oh yeah and i'd really like to see a reunion between Rick and Daryl and Rick and Morgan
More so Darryl because didn't things end badly between them in that final episode together. I think Darryl left rick for dead.
Maybe in a nursing home, one day. Then Negan and his wife are in the nursing home, too, and they all share witty banter. It could be a sitcom and run maybe 4 seasons. I may be getting ahead my myself.
Danai Gurira shy away from answering the future of this series and her character's future in an interview. I suspect all these spin off will eventually come together as Diamond Dave suggested an Avengers assembled series.
I really enjoyed it. This was what we were all expecting: Rick found and united with his family. ❤
Yes, it was symbolism leaving his hand behind but you have to remember his train of thought.. the CRM traumatized him for years and then he found out how evil the CRM really is and what they want to do. I agree he should have taken it but I also understand why someone living in trauma would have left it behind. Gimple, Andy and Danai said there are no plans for a second season but they also said maybe so who knows? It was a straight up no by any of them. I think we'll see Rick and Michonne in the future in some way.
Awesome reaction!!!! Funny, smart, mature, down to earth and thoughtful commentary by u guys... The best reactors in this Walking Dead universe.... In a world where I feel like most reactors are quick to trash the whole show if they don't get everything they want and they don't seem to give a damn about the real people who make these shows, U guys go above and beyond to show appreciation for the hard work it takes to give us these episodes...Thank U!
Everybody died who were introduced in this series. Nat and his team, Okafor, Beale, Theorne, Jadis. Who else left noone. Only Rick & Michonne.
The ones who live.😊

@@tomasgetze4330 100% agreed
@@tomasgetze433090% of the CRM is left. And if they were smart… maybe one or two of the former 10% were left out of the summit in case of catastrophe 🤷🏾♀️
Glad yall are all together for this one ❤️
Honestly given how unpredictable this show has been I was extremely worried how this was gonna end, and by the end I had the biggest stupidest grin on my face. Yeah it was a let down the CRM got totaled so early but overall I'm happy with how it ended
Don't forget, it wasn't all of the CRM, just the extremists.....
for me this ended perfectly. i got everything i wanted esp at the final scene. i wish to see more of Rick and Michonne but if this was their ending, im happy with it. to me, it was never about the CRM. It was always about the epic love story between my two favourite characters!
of course I want to see Daryl and Rick reunite. But I’m very happy with this ending.
Every time I see just you three on screen all I can think about is the "answer didn't make it" part of the skit from the first episode of this series and it's hilarious 😂
🤣🤣🤣
I agree it's a bit rushed but it makes sense if they weren't sure they could get a s2 it makes sense to wrap it up nicely in case this is the end
The CRM, or rather Beale, was over confident. Let’s be real - all the soldiers there accepted his plan and were down for the cause. He didn’t think security was necessary. His ego is what hot him killed, and I love that it was done quickly and efficiently. Go, Rick!!
Plus, they only took out the evil part of the military. The rest of the military exists. Rick mentioned early on that there were a lot of secrets in that place and that even the military doesn’t know everything the military does.
This was the perfect close to Rick’s chapter. I could see Richonne showing up at the end of TBOC when Caryl make it back to Alexandria/CW. I didn’t watch DD so I’m not sure if that will have a third season.
Remember people this series was about Rick and Michonne’s reunification. Not the CRM, not Beal, or Daryl. With that in mind, it was a great ending.
We remember. I think you missed what we mentioned about Daryl. We said at some point we hope for that reunion along with Morgan and others. We knew Daryl was not going.
Somehow I knew that Beale would turn out to be a nothing burger. At the beginning, all I heard about him was that he was a great actor from Lost (never watched) and that TWD would make him the big bad.
I don't remember any of the shows advertising making him out that way. The show itself never gave him a lot of screen time like they did say, the governor or negan.
Beale's reputation seemed to be mostly mythos to make him bigger than he actually was.
His story was told to everyone entering that side of the CRM and a good way to indoctrinate them.
Thorne turned into a zealot for this CRM religion.
You all saw that Beale couldn't fight worth a damn, he spewed nonsense like he was a god but had no physical attributes to back it up. All his conquests (from what we were told and what we saw) he had an army fighting for him but HE took all the credit. He ordered the annihilation of Pittsburgh... he wasn't on the ground.
And his going out and fighting walkers (delts, dumb name) where he is behind a fence and they come at him one at a time showed me Beale was not a leader that could lead the people, he was a dictator that demanded people do what he says do.
Fans who are mad they didn't make Beale bigger than they thought, need to separate the actor from the character. This is The Walking Dead.
Doesn't matter if you are the President of the United States. If you cameo on this show, you will become a walker. There used to be a time that people begged to come onboard just to be a walker.
(This is just my take by the way)
It was like watching the Reaper arch again 😂
I felt an overwhelming amount of satisfaction from this series. I feel ive got alot of TWD closure and really hope they let this close a book and not lead to a milking of the series again.
I just still can’t get over the fact we saw rick again haha , it’s been so long and we actually got a show on him it’s great to see , I now need a full show of him reuniting with everyone and just being with people
such an amazing episode
Im just happy Rick and Judith reunited i almost don't remember any scenes with them in the regular season
Not with THIS Juddith. They never acted together.
Thought so 🤔
Leaving the hand behind for symbolism was fine, the timing was the issue. It would have been better him ditching it after they took out the CRM. Ditch the scene Thorn finding the hand as she was already suspicious of Rick when no one was at the fence so her finding Rick was fine. Instead use that time to show Rick leaving all his CRM gear behind including the hand as he gets on helicopter in civilian clothes before transitioning to their landing. Basically after the CRM is finished him leaving it behind to move on would be fine, but before that when it is a weapon. Especially since he had no problem giving michone the CRM leader's sword.
I think people forget that most of the people that are in the CRM were Bs not As so they were all followers not any leaders Beale was under the impression ( and he stated it) the fact that Rick came back when he had the option of being free that he was broken enough to be a B. So it understandable that everyone was a little complicit. They went along because this Leader told them this.
21:51 I remembered Rick was immune to explosions ever since the Bridge. I knew he would be safe.
The hand: Maybe Rick wanted them to know it was him. “Tell Thorn, it was me.” lol
Ninja bite: Luckily all the “walkers” had helmets on, preventing them from biting. So I thought that was a believable to dance around that many walkers without a bite.
Story Pace: Not showing us the political drama of the CRC vs CRM was a good choice. This was never a political drama. It would have been boring / drag. This show settled the original show’s outstanding plot lines. Bravo!
Extended Story: we still have all the Major Biel “frontlines” spies embedded in all sorts of communities out there! We have variants & mutant dead. They were also very clear that the CRM has very little info about ‘the planet’. They were only confident about their superiority on a North America.
Rick's story line can't end yet without reuniting with his bros Daryl and especially Morgan Jones!!!!
Fun fact and also a what you missed the boots Andy was wearing at the end meeting his kids while walking out of the helicopter are the same shoes he wore on day 1 of the show as he shoots the girl who picks up the bunny also hints why michonne picked a bunny up callbacks are crazy in this one honestly think that’s all for the grimes
Not only just the prosthetic, but the armor as a whole, that crm tactical gear can be extremely useful, why the hell even abandon it for "symbolism"
I agree with a lot of your points. the hand was a symbolic thing but a foolish decision. it did feel rushed but I’m just glad we got the family reunion and rick and michonne *both* survived. we need to see everyone brought back and reunited and then let them go. for good.
They finally reunite after all the years & all the crazy. It’s nice how he ends up with a son too.
Yess the “hand” was out of character, no way he would leave it. I hope we get a reunion of all characters at the end.
I mostly enjoy this episode and really enjoyed this series. I just had a little problem with the pacing and was disappointed with the villain.
I get the criticism of this being rushed or that they didn't utilize the CRM enough or as good as they could have. What I don't get is the need to make up things unesserary.
1. They did not defeat the CRM.
2. They did not fight against an army. They put an explosion while they were busy preparing to attack a whole city. Rick and Michone were smart and lucky, not stronger or better.
3. They were able to do this because every soldier were busy like I said before. They thought themselves as the strongest army in the world and were just focused on their mission.
I really don't like when "criticism" comes from a place of making up things that never happened or misunderstanding. Seriously, one criticism said that they defeated the CRM becuase of love. Like when did that ever happened?
Another is that this was always going to be a Rick's and Michone's show. Though rushed because it was just 6 episodes, this was always going to be the ending. It was either going to be this or Rick and Michone dead.
Yeah… I thought them ending up,dead was a possibility and the would “live” through their children. Really happy that wasn’t the case though.
I now feel like the Daryl show takes place after this show. Cause when Carol was on the radio talking to Daryl before he got sent to France. She must have said Rick is back
TWD Dead City takes place in 2028, roughly 6-ish (give or take years after The Ones Who Live). The Day the Global Outbreak started was August 25th, 2010. This is the TV Series Universe.
The Comics Universe (which includes the comics, Novels, the Telltale Series Games, and TWD Saints & Sinners Game) Outbreak took place on July 19th, 2003. The comic ends with a 25 year jump, which means it's 2033 where the comic ends.
I agree with everyone about him leaving his hand, my guess is that was a Scott Gimple decision. However, I still loved this episode, it was a good mix of emotions, action and characters.
I just think imo it's a symbolic gesture of CRM control over Rick's body. It's not like he's gonna walk around w no hand the rest of his life. He will get another prosthetic of his own making & / or choosing , and maybe he just wants to get a regular hand to wear instead of a weapon all the time like Aaron & have am attachment change out when needed if & when he needs to fight anything.
@@jenloveshorror It looks like the Badd Medicine crew get that too. At that point, he wasn't out of the battle/CRM grasp yet and he was still in danger. When he was fighting Thorne and the Walkers it was a harder for him since he was one-handed. Rick could have removed his hand before getting off the CRM helicopter that brought him and Michonne home. That would have been just as impactful. He would literally be leaving that part of himself behind on CRM property before returning to where his heart truly belonged.
@@MrsBramletJr yeah that does make sense too
Glad youre back OAK, just not the same without ya! Its not the same if any of you are gone for a video. Hope you all had a great weekend! Always ready for your next vid! Much love and respect
I like the ending and that they dismantled the CRM, but easily there could've been 1-2 more episodes.
I discovered yall through this 6 part series and im so happy I DID! After every episode i came to hear what yall reactions were and so similar to my thoughts! The ending WAS RUSHED! but overall every episode was a 10!!!!!! and i give the 6th ep an 8! AMAZING SERIES💯💯💯💯💯
I don’t really mind Rick leaving his prosthetic behind. I think that symbolized Rick leaving behind his CRM self. He lost his hand trying to escape and accepting the prosthetic was part of “accepting” the CRM for Rick and leaving it behind symbolized him moving on and finally escaping the CRM without his hand how it always was supposed to happen. However I do have some gripes with this last episode. I am satisfied with the ending overall however I thought the echelon briefing was somewhat dumb. I hate when bad characters have their reasons for doing what they do based on something that the viewer doesn’t get to see or even understand. In the case of this show that Beale thought humans would go extinct because of “modeling”. This makes almost no sense to the viewer who has seen humanity fight and stay alive in the apocalypse despite all odds, with no indication that humanity was loosing the battle. In fact it makes more sense that eventually humanity will beat the dead given that the dead continue to slowly decay and less and less zombies are getting made after the initial outbreak when the bulk of all zombies were made. However if Beale maybe brought up the fact that variants are now spreading through the continent and that new zombies have a chance to maybe be a variant then the dead actually pose a much greater threat to humanity than they ever did previously and his position to basically kill everyone else would actually make sense. I also thought the whole radio broadcast at the end was somewhat cheesy, like there was absolutely no one left to try and take over the CRM? I though we should have at least had a scene where Rick and Michonne go before the council and show them the evidence, and then maybe Rick goes and sees his water manager friend, I don’t know I never really had any care for the actual civic republic like the city part. As a viewer there was really nothing tying to us to the city so it would have nice to have a little bit more. 5/10 episode 8/10 series overall
I think a lot of people missed that the blade in his prosthetic was broken.
As longtime TWD fans I feel we're so used to painful endings that it's hard to wrap your mind around a happy one. But I'm not gonna lie, I don't want a season 2. I love the idea of Rick and Michone, after everything they have been through, just get to enjoy being a family. Get to enjoy all the time they lost. To me, either one of them dying would have been too cruel. This ending was oddly hopeful and after years of pain and agony watching your favorite characters get brutal ugly ends, I am down with a little hope.
Theres still one member of the corrupted crm left theres a lady in prison by beale and jadis
Yeah i was thinking that Kublek is probably gonna be released considering the “known corrupt” elements are gone and they put her there.
What lady in prison? When did this happen?
After I saw the last episode, this made my heart sad and I cried until my tears came out because Rick returned to his community and was together again with his children.
And also this episode shows us a clip of what Rick's story is from Season 1 to 11 and that's what makes me goosebumps.
And Michonne Is An Awesome Character On The Walking Dead
And I'm Not Sure Whether There's A Season 2 Or Not But I Can Just Wait If There's Not That's OK There Are Still Other The Walking Dead Stories Like Daryl Dixon Season 2 because We're Still Curious About Darly Dixon's Story In Season 2
The writers of this episode was Scott Gimple and someone named Chandler Powell. Danai and Andy as executive producers were able to bring in their ideas and suggestions. Andy said they relied on Scott to figure out the logistics of the explosives and gas writing. Also, the summit included the 10% of the CRM that were the secret group in red suits who did the killing. The other 90% of the military were left in the dark.
Oh, and it was only 6 episodes with a budget of $13m . That’s why they couldn’t extend to 8 episodes. Anyway, I appreciated the finale and I got what I wanted to see as a Richonne. I’m happy.
I think there was a mistake with the prosthetic hand. Because Rick was seen using it against the CRM soldier in the elevator, but is later seen without it/left behind and found by Thorne. It was definitely an afterthought idea after they began shooting the scenes.
So pumped to see yalls reaction to this ep!!! Very divided amongst fans. LET'S GOOOOOOOOO fellas!!!!❤💞❤️
I never thought Rick or Michonne would die but I did think one of them would get bit by a walker and be immune. That's something I think the writers have been hinting at a few times. I figured it would either be Rick or Michonne but it really could be anyone at this point.
As a longtime TWD fan myself, it was nostalgic to see all the flashbacks & I was wondering if they was gonna leave on a big cliff hanger & do a season 2, but with way it ended, it seems not, but I am happy with this ending for Rick & Michonne & I agree with the points that Quinn & Dave said, tie up loose ends, we need a big reunion of all the characters when all the spin off series come to a close, I guess it could be symbolism why he left his prosthetic hand behind, or maybe he don't want to be reminded of his time in the CRM now his back home with family & want to leave those memories behind, but all in all, it was a good way to conclude their story, I shall miss seeing a notification on Sunday nights of a new TWD vid by Badd Medicine, but we still got some future shows to look forward to! thanks for a great reaction vid guys! it's not been aired in UK, so was great to join you in this journey!. 🙂
Literally every reaction is saying it felt rushed my question is how long were they expecting we only got 6 episodes
I also want to see Rick see what Negan has evolved into. I enjoyed this series.
Rick can fly a chopper now. He can get to Paris so that's your new story. But this was a Phenomenal 6 episodes.
I think the prosthetic arm was left behind so he wouldn't be recognized (see Jamie Lannister, the stupidest Lannister, who got recognized & captured because he didn't remove his golden hand).
So after watching It's all a bit surreal. I've wanted this reunion for so long. But seeing it last night, I have to let it sit. I tried not to set high expectations for what might come after. I did want a merging back to the original characters they left behind but I'm not sure we'll get that now. I'm a bigger Carol and Daryl fan and can't wait for The Book of Carol this Summer.
What a show!!! So thankful for spending more time with the one and only Rick Grimes. 👍🔥
It was known from episode one that there would only be one season.
I really wished they had Rick and Michonne enter Alexandria for the last shot and we could see everyone else's reaction.
Also, now we know what Carol said to Daryl in his spin off. "Rick is back"!!
I think the reason it was so easy to take down the CRM is because everyone there was higher level and had fully bought into the idea. Beale said there had been no one like him that he'd given the briefing to. I think they felt everyone was on even ground and they were safe. I too hate that Rick left his prosthetic behind. He needed that for fighting but I get it was his way of saying he's done with the CRM having a hold of him. I still HATE it. (Probably Gimple's idea) I hope that since there's now an oversite committee monitoring the military and for everything Rick did for them they will be willing to make him another one which would hold a different meaning to him now. There are many ways they can continue TWOL just not focused on the love story aspect. They could have Rick and Michonne be part of the oversite of the military. They could travel to various communities and let's not forget that there are secret agents throughout the world and in Portland. Also, Beale does have a son who might want payback.
Glad we had a nice satisfying ending, just wish they would have recorded a big reunion back when they were filming TWD so we could have seen the group (what's left of them) meeting up with Rick. So sad we will never get the Carol, Daryl, Maggie, Rick reunion.
Rick through the grenade on the other side of the walkers. Soldiers who jump on grenades absorb grenade blasts.
Based on what Andrew Lincoln and Gimple said in an interview, I expect a season 2 or at least we see them again in another spin off
We need a Morgan & Rick Reunion, Daryl & Rick Reunion & I would like to see Rick's reaction to Negan also
Wait Beale told Rick that there were CRM spies in selected communities throughout the continent and the world so does that mean that the CRM knew about the communities in New York and in France oh yeah and now that The walking Dead, Fear The Walking Dead, The Walking Dead World Beyond, and The Walking Dead The Ones Who Live are completely finished does that mean that Dead City and Daryl Dixon are possibly going to be the total and complete end of all of The Walking Dead series or do y'all think there'll be more spin-offs
Fun fact pearl is supposed to mirror michonne and Danai said the probably would’ve been friends had they met earlier also Danai actually asked for a happy ending she pitched a lot for the episode I love it can’t wait for season 2 as well also I think pearl is still alive they said that there is going to be a season 2 for all 3 shows it’s just they wanted a happy ending just once
I watched the first episode of The Walking Dead on Halloween 2010 because I loved George A. Romero's zombie films, and I've loved The Walking Dead for the same reasons!
We have to accept that the Walking Dead ended after the commonwealth. We needed this series because Rick amd Michonne were unfinished. This series was about getting Rick back mentally and physically and getting Richonne back to their kids. Mission accomplished. I’m satisfied. The Daryl Dixon timeline made it impossible to have a reunion with everyone. We probably won’t get a reunion with everyone until Norman decides to end the Daryl show!
Where was Morgan? Why give Lennie James such a wonderful and impactful send-off from Fear to have him look for Rick without finding Rick?
I gotta assume Gimple will make a big reunion for the final send off.
The amount of screaming I did in the last 15 minutes was insane. This was a fantastic finale and an amazing series. Rick and Michonne are reunited they are with their kids, safe and happy. I am satisfied.
People saying this show was about Rick and Michonne and not the CRM clearly never watched World Beyond. It's not about how the CRM was handled in this show, it's how quick it was handled as a whole through the universe of TWD.
I mean... they are not over. Beale clearly said they had sleeper agents in all the communities. So I don't think it's over completely with the extremist side of the CRM. But that's not for Rick and Michonne to deal with. I think they are retired lol
my thought regarding Rick leaving his iron fist behind was that it made him easy to identify since he's had it for years and I assume he's known for it. It didn't bother me that much. Happy to have a good end to Rick's arc.
the oak reminds of John Travolta when he played in wild hogs
My only problem with this episode was that we didn't see him and Daryl reunite mostly due to the daryl dixon series that's supposed to have a season 2. Im hoping that at the end of both the Negan and Maggie show as well as the Daryl Dixon and Carol show that they each have a scene where they see Rick. I know everyone was excited to see the reaction of others in Alexandria about rick being alive so it's kinda just sad that we didn't get that. Also i really want to see the interaction between rick and negan after all this time.😅
I like watching the episodes on my own and coming here to see your guys reaction and see if I had the same reaction as y’all
Judith and RJ shoulda been like "Mom! You're back! We missed you so much! Who is this crusty old man??"
😂😂😂
I was thinking we'd see some reaction by Michonne to seeing the sketches of Gabriel on Jadis' wall. I realize she was focused on something much more important, but I thought just a slight pause, with her maybe touching the pictures and having reacting in some way.
During the briefing Buele sort of mentioned or hinted at the idea of variants. Saying they don’t how they change/mutate.
Great finale to finish off a brilliant season! Rick is home!
This episode was good but i wish there was some things added like we never got to see Michonne tell rick about the kids she had to kill, how Judith saved a group, The whisperers and all people they killed alongside with the Commonwealth and how Negan saved Judith and helped save Alexandria by killing Alpha i feel that should've been added . I understand leaving tha hand behind but instead of his hand there should've been a seen where rich gives Michonne her sword back and they leave baele's saber behind .
I think it's more that based on the other episodes, it didn't seem like this one had enough rising action to feel like 'the end' until all of a sudden... it was the end.
Great episode. Wish they hadn't wrapped it up so quickly, but still great. Can't wait for you guys react to Banshee! Cause you are going to react to Banshee, right????
Rick killing Locke is everything in my TV universe mind.
