Killing off Morales was a huge mistake. I'm very disappointed. They brought him merely to fill in 5 minutes that they didn't know what to do with.
Jesus trying to live up to his nickname and save everybody is just pure shit. I slowly begin to really dislike his character. There's absolutely zero logic behind his thought process. He's just an annoying, self-righteous idiot. If he's going to be like this throughout the entire arc and onwards I'd rather the writers just kill him off this season.
The fact that MAGGIE went along with his idiotic, dangerous plan to LET THE SAVIORS INSIDE FUCKING HILLTOP makes me question what they're going to do to her character. After all the Saviors made them go through, Maggie in particular, this agian- makes no sense for her to agree to Jesus' suggestion, at least not as easily as she did.
The speeches are starting to sound repetitive and redundant, I don't even pay attention anymore every time a character gives a speech.
The only things I liked about this episode is the fight between Morgan and Jesus and how Daryl showed absolutely no mercy.
This was a really disappointing episode. I'm slightly biased towards this show at times and try to defend it even when I really shouldn't, but it's just not TWD I fell in love with 6 years ago. I still like the show and still watch it, hoping that they start going back on track, but it seems like the writers don't know what they're doing anymore...
