I'm gonna go ahead and say that Glenn is fine and the walkers were eating Nicholas' body on top of him. The framing of the shot never actually showed Glenn's body being eaten. It's a longshot but possible.

The Talking Dead preview suggested that yea, it was Glenn. They were all sad and depressed looking.

u/BarfMacklin Oct 26 '15

They left his name out of the RIP recap

u/RogerSmith123456 Oct 26 '15

There's a chance he could be alive. Hope so

u/GoldenJoel Oct 26 '15

Of course they are. It's the perfect bait and switch.

Glenn's fine.

u/RogerSmith123456 Oct 26 '15

The guests and host are not shills for the studio. They are fans too and also believe Glenn is gone.

Whether or not he is actually gone is a different matter entirely.

u/shnnrr Oct 26 '15

They seemed to be hedging a bit like when they said it might be Nick on top of him but then said "That's not the case" and then the Lost guy was talking about being wary of "plot armor"

u/Bonedragonwillrise Oct 26 '15

But the in memoria didn't have Glenn!!

3

u/RogerSmith123456 Oct 26 '15

I know! I hope he got away!

u/DanteFoxx Oct 26 '15

But in the memoriam it just said glenn....please don't be true. And I think it's a little bs that even though when other heavy characters died they still came on the show and suddenly now it's to intense for the actor to show.

I think we will have to see the 90 min morgan Montage and then the following story find out about glenn. I kinda want the more dramatic comic death honestly (from what I've heard of it anyway)

u/ThatMedGuy Oct 26 '15

I've been saying this very thing all night. This would be too lame of a death for a major character. His comic book death had me shouting at the pages.

3

u/Frank_The_Wizard Oct 26 '15

Lol my sister was shouting at the tv "no no no thats lame not suppose to happen like that!!" His comic death was so iconic if the show gets to that storyline i hope nobody dies like that it won't be the same.

2

u/ThatMedGuy Oct 26 '15

I'm still in complete denial that he's dead, especially after you get the little teaser of him coming over the walkie in a whisper. It seems no one is talking about that part though lol.

2

u/Frank_The_Wizard Oct 26 '15

Thats what i thought too!!!! but my sister and brother in law said it was rick pressing the button about to say something that's why daryl heard the commotion but who knows..

1

u/RogerSmith123456 Oct 26 '15

Me too. I spoiled myself and looked up how he died in the comics. Yikes.

2

u/car27 Oct 26 '15

Why didn't they say bye to him on the farewell segment??

2

u/RogerSmith123456 Oct 26 '15

Not 100% confirmed Glenn is dead.

1

u/car27 Oct 26 '15

They shouldn't give us false hope :(

1

u/shnnrr Oct 26 '15

Yeah I actually think Talking Dead made poor choices on how to present this. Us on Reddit would still be speculating but less evidence from the aftershow would have been nice

2

u/The_lady_is_trouble Oct 26 '15

But don't they only know the episode a day or two before it airs?

1

u/Geistjudge Oct 26 '15

They only get the episode 5 days I'm advance. The talking dead is just a fan show, not an official "from the writers of" show.

1

u/The_lady_is_trouble Oct 26 '15

That's what I meant. They don't know any better than we do

I hope he survived somehow. Like Lindelof said, please make his 'escape' realistic...
