The characters are now spread out over a few miles, with each group having to deal with different problems in their quest to reunite with the others. Morgan, you may recall, captured an errant Wolf way back in episode two, during the brief (and, in retrospect, totally ill-advised) raid on Alexandria. She took her death well and imparted her last bits of wisdom onto Rick and onto Michonne and really laid the groundwork to see how her death will affect Michonne….

“The Walking Dead” Season 6B will premiere in the USA on February 14, 2016. Listen up Eugene, it’s the zombie apocalypse, everyone is scared. Sure, I can try to be compassionate and defend his fear of the everything that lurks outside of Alexandria’s walls. Everyone has to act quickly and run, as there’s no way to them out in the open. Ron couldn’t simply shoot Carl or vice versa: they had to have an extended tussle in the garage, beckoning the walker army their way in the process.
There aren’t any scary fights with walkers this time around either.
I would trade every scene we got with Queen Deanna, bickering Alexandrians and Creepy Bowl Haircut Kid for just one more minute of this. Shooting all those walkers in alexandria was no joke. In the end, Negan will lose and will be sentenced to life in prison. She only came over because Morgan said he’ll release the prisoner if he promises not to kill again. Carol appeared to have a concussion due to a fall, poor Denise was stuck with the Wolf Morgan was keeping locked up, and Deanna discovered that in addition to her various wounds, there was a walker bite on her midsection.
Even worse was Morgan and Carol. Even in Episode 7, when Rick sees Spencer trying to make a go for the cars…. This time, we’re looking at Carl and Ron, the two teens who have unresolved issues. “I get it, my dad killed your dad”, Carl tells him.
Rick, Jessie, Sam, Ron, Carl, Michonne and Judith are all covered in walkers’ blood as they make their way out of their once home.
Forbes calculated that the series could go on for more than 20 seasons at its current pace. I also hold important episodes featuring characters like Shane and Hershel near and dear. The fact that he’s coming is not going to mean great stuff for Rick’s group. If that’s the case, we can look forward to Negan’s introduction being handled very differently to the comics. From Deanna’s ceaseless hope, to Morgan’s naive but resilient belief that killing isn’t the answer, “Start to Finish” best encapsulated what The Walking Dead is all about.
If you were to take a poll of “TWD” viewers right now, majority would probably agree that Season 6 is the best season of AMC’s hit show thus far.
There are plenty of other interesting tidbits from the episode.
“For [Morgan], it’s wonderful that an audience, especially a TV audience, knows him to be very sensitive and loving and giving”.

After demanding Daryl, Sasha and Abraham to hand over their weapons and the keys to their truck, it’s clear that these men are member of The Saviors. Lizzie’s inability to differentiate between the living state of a human and a walker – she even considered the latter to be her friend – ended in a grisly, what-the-actual-fuck moment where, in an effort to prove her point about how humans and walkers are the same, she stabbed her 10-year-old sister Mika to death. Unfortunately, she didn’t have enough screen time in the midseason finale for any kind of reveal to be made.
