Too far, trying to create some monotonous supervillian Version 2. Now Rik is some kind of coward blah blah blah. So the only way out is for Negan to lead the show as we start a new narrative of good vs evil. But what good? There isn't any good! There was a team we were rooting for to survive, and they lost pretty darn badly. So the evil axis of the WD yoyo is back in control; and I guess somewhere along the line our defeated team will rise up and restore justice.. except that I've never seen such cowardice and I've lost all the respect I had for them, especially in Rik. He was going to cry-rage cut off his son's arm... wow. And YAWN. Possibly, there could still be some zombies roaming around in the background.
The gore is just a symptom of running out of ideas and trying to buy time. Oh and the support of all the people calling this the greatest episode on TV. Fair enough, people are keen for gore and nyaaaah, but I don't care for it or need it. It's mainly childish.
You know, looking back, they had the opportunity to kill Rik a couple of seasons back and they could have kept the leadership fluid and interesting. It would have worked and someone could have stepped up to the plate. Now they have created this martyr who they have dug too deep with, who has lost his way.
I'm out. If you stick with it, best of luck, I hope you get stuck with Negan ;)
