YOU COMPLETELY MISSED THE POINT OF THE SHOW. IT WAS ABOUT FINISHING TH STORY OF RICK AND MICHONNE. ANDY AND DANAI SAID THIS MANY TIMES. IT WAS NOT AOBUT THE CRM. NOTHING WAS RUSHED. IT WAS A PERFECT EPISODE FOR THE STORY ANDY AND DANAI WANTED TO TELL. IT WAS NOT REUNITING WITH DARYL OR ANYONE ELSE. RICK IS NOT GOING TO LEAVE HIS FAMILY TO GO CHASE DOWN DARYL. I'M NOT SURE WHAT IS WRONG WITH PEOPLE WHO THINK LIKE THIS. I HOPE THEY DON'T ACTUALY HAVE WIVES AND KIDS. SORRY YOU HAVE BEEN CONFUSED THIS WHOLE TIME. THUMBS DOWN ON YOUR VIDEO.

I didn’t like the episode at all. It’s ok to say and feel. It was sooo lazy and rushed just like GAME OF THRONES. The army of the undead was practically unbeatable for so many reasons. But when they went to war suddenly the were toy soldiers who couldn’t kill the main characters but dance around them. Cue Michael Jackson’s song n music video Thriller. GOT went out bad. And so did TWD. All these coincidences were terrible in both episode 5 and 6. Too much kissing. It stopped feeling magical and genuine. Rick tried years to sneak out but suddenly Michonnne can sneak in. COME ON MAN! Then Biele doesn’t allow interruptions but another “suddenly “ allows an interruption”. It never was explained why he likes Rick so much. I just want to make a rant video. Maybe I’ll do that because we deserved better than this.

The whole idea of the series was not the CRM. It was Rick and Michonne's love story and return home. The CRM was never going to be the plot point that the show relied on. They wove in what would be the downfall of this branch of the military the whole season so that way you could see how they would make it out. That less than 10% of the military is actually corrupt meaning everyone freaking out about how massive this threat was is missing the picture. Only a small portion of the infantry was a danger and they (Rick and Michonne) handled that. He only killed 3,000 the small less than 10% was corrupt. The CRM still exists they just handed power over to the republic like they always were supposed too.I think along the way people missed what this story was supposed to be and thats why you may feel disappointed.

This show is about them finding each other and going home to their kids. Obviously there will be a reunion on Daryls show. It makes perfect sense to move it over there. It will bring in the viewers. And exactly The CRM isnt even gone. They left that very open ended and could possibly explore more of that in other spin offs. People that dont use comprehension when watching shouldnt post reviews.😂

This show was about rick and michonne love story and getting him home that what she did.

Rick has insane dad lore.

This series was just amazing!!!

Scott, Rick, and Danai specifically said this was a Love Story, meaning it's all about Michonne and Rick. The CRM is secondary. Reuniting Daryle (who by the way betrayed Rick) is insignificant. The only thing I would like to see if Rick and Darryl reunite is Rick berate him, as well as Maggie! They are both the catalyst of why Rick missed out so much with his family. Maybe in the future they will have something else with him and Rick.

Also Rick and Michonne taking out the CRM is believable considering that only a extremely small portion of the military know about what their real purpose/mission is so Rick and Michonne taking out all the higher ups in this episode and the CRM becoming good I guess you could say does make sense.

Just felt massively rushed and a let down, after YEARS of teasing the CRM.

It's kinda crazy but understandable to me that ppl would be mad at how Beale and the CRM were dealt with. You knew it was almost the end of the 10yrs of military reign & time for the CR to take over. All the corrupt leaders were essentially in one place together and Rick & Michonne used that opportunity to their advantage. They never needed to fight a huge war they needed to get rid of Beale's private force that did his dirty work and wiped out innocent ppl. Okafor said in ep 1 that the majority of the military wasn't aware or apart of the mass killings.

Rick Wick was obliterating people left and right this episode. What a beast.

TOWL is the best six episode stretch in the entirety of TWDU. Yes, it had the highest budget ever. However, it was another level of emotional, romantic, heartbreaking, heartwarming, unbelievably amazing content. IMO the ending was not rushed. It felt very good. I could barely keep myself together at the end. It was always about Rick and Michonne getting home to see their kids. They changed the CRM and made the world theirs.

cried like a baby too

I believe there will be a season 2 but they might name it something else other then "the ones who live" and my theory is carol is going to go to france to look for daryl, she's going to find him and try to bring him home and let him know that rick and Michonne is home now all while rick is reuniting with everyone in Alexandria. This ending left it opened for a possible season 2 but if they don't do a season 2, they still left it on a note to where a lot of people are satisfied with seeing the grimes family reuniting

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

People are completely missing the whole point of this show. This show was meant to be and was advertised as being the show about Rick & Michonne. THATS IT. They had 6 episodes to do it in. Of course some parts were rushed and of course they werent going to focus more on the CRM and the friends Michonne made along her way. Ive seen some people say they are disappointed in the ending.

Other aspects of the show are valid to critique on. Just because the main focus is Rick and Michonne, doesn't mean the CRM can't be criticized from a writing standpoint. I don't think anyone (or at least most people) are mad they reunited with their kids, that's not what people are criticizing.

They could’ve stretched this out over 2-3 seasons easily. But honestly rushed doesn’t mean bad imo.

Gimple talked about an big overarching finale to all of it, so I imagine this isn't the last of Rick and Michonne. PROS: -Glad it felt like Rick was a different person and had to work back to Rick from the main TWD series. -Glad they did some interesting unexpected things with the entire series. My anticipation for the series was high, but I can't say my hopes were with how mid the other series have been and how mixed the last seasons of FEAR were. They honestly blew me outta the water with the way this series stuck to the themes of the original series/source material, but actually had some new things to add to the universe. -Pleased with the amount of tie-ins to previous TWD plotlines and unanswered questions, felt like they did just enough to not feel like too much fan service. I didn't want the show to be a "hey wouldn't it be cool if Rick and Michonne just talked about TWD all season?", I was really worried about that, but luckily it wasn't that. Even the finale had the balls to not be like "here's 15minutes of everyone reacting to Rick being alive". They just ended it, which is good. -Pleased with Jadis' ending, felt satisfying for her arc. -Loved the tone of most of these episodes, brought the intensity back, FEAR could get pretty goofy. -Loved the music of this show, mostly. Some of it threw me off, but the INTRO sequence is fantastic, as well as those musical cues during the Echelon Briefing with Rick and Beale, they were outstanding. Really boosted the scene. -Andrew Lincoln is fantastic, doesn't miss a beat, he's still Rick. Danai is great for the most part, and I'm impressed with her writing. -Thorne was a pretty good character, Nat was pretty great, but Okafor was flawless. Okafor is easily one of the best new TWD characters in a long time. Too bad he ain't around anymore :/ -The variants have been done exceptionally well in these spinoffs, they don't feel like Left 4 Dead zombies where some are just big and tough or sneaky. It's much more elemental and based on more "scientific" reasons for why they appear different or have differing abilities. CONS: -Finale was a little fast. -CRM is taken care of rather quickly, which is not good, and a lot of shows need to study up on how to use a villain. The governor got a season and a half, Negan got about 2 seasons (3 if you count all savior conflicts), whisperers got 2 seasons. Reapers were done pretty well in less than half a season, same with commonwealth. So, I think they should've at least kept them around for another season or something, or written the downfall a little cleaner. OR just STOP MAKING 6 EPISODE SERIES IF YOU CAN'T WRAP IT UP NEATLY, do 10 or 12 or 16 for god's sake. -Michonne often feels like she's not Michonne in this series, a lot of that can be chalked up to her just learning about the CRM but still, she should've been a lot smarter in her actions. -Someone gotta recast RJ for the next thing, he getting too old to be so applesauce brain, he ain't a toddler anymore. We already learned this with Carl, he aged so fast compared to his comic counter part, which got weird at times. I can't think of much else right now, pretty alright series, I'm more pleased than disappointed so I can't complain with the amount of garbage put out today. And who knows, CRM is gone but the CRC still got hella people and weaponry, could still be a problem in the wrong hands.

I think when Carol said hes back i think she mean rick and michone and maybe in Daryl's second season we might see more of a reunion than just rick meeting judith and Rj

I thought the pacing of this episode was the best so far, we got to actually get to know more about Beale and learn the plan and were able to sit in the moment instead of jumping over things, it's not like they took down the CRM, they took out one small area and it's a realistic end to the love story they were going for.

They literally foreshadowed this CRM's base being destroyed "Sometimes things need to burn for better things to grow." This series has such good writing.

It was rushed and I’m a bit disappointed but not because it’s bad but because i expected more. But the fact that we definitely gonna see them having a reunion with Daryl and Carol makes the ending definitely great because we know that it’s not it.

I watched TWD since I was a kid. I broke when Rick got to meet his daughter.

I wish people would remember that just because something doesn't end the way you wanted it to end in your mind, does not mean it was not a good ending.

Murder Rick came back! ❤ Also loved that his hat and boots featured in the final scene. That is pure OG TWD goodness. What a series this has been.

Ur reaction to the explosion was the same reaction I had😂😂 this walking dead was definitely on steroids

The wrap-up on the CRM was a little too neat, but I understand why they did it that way. I also wish the reunion with the kids had had other characters involved. Like why were the kids out there by themselves?!? Ezekiel would never have allowed that. He would have at least sent Jerry with them. And if they were at Alexandria, Aaron wouldn’t have allowed it either. I was so hoping to see Ross Marquond because he still has the beard in real life. But I understand they have a certain budget and timeframe and they probably couldn’t get them.

It was rushed, yes, but the CRM isn't dead. It's repurposed. And could still turn threatening again later. They didn't take out the whole CRM, just the red stripes. Even on the broadcast, they said the rest of the CRM are still around, just under different 'management' by the council.

Even negan as antagonist lasted longer than CRM and took much more effort to beat that CRM (the strongest force in the world) lol.

Yes the ending felt rushed but this is still what I wanted as a fan, I wanted Rick to meet his son and reconnect with Judith. Rick reuniting with his family was everything. (did not expect it to happen though) I keep going back to episode 4, that was a masterpiece in my opinion, Danai and Andrew deserve an award for that episode. I have never gotten that emotional (literally cried my eyes out) from a tv-show before, like you said, 'It's like hearing my parents argue'. If this is the last we saw from these characters I'm good with it....I got my reunion but like you said there are still some questions to be answered. I really would love to see the reunion between Rick and Daryl (its the only thing I still want/need out of this show.) Damn... I'm going to miss these two characters.

The CRM wasn’t destroyed. Only most of the elite soldiers (about 2500) were killed. There are still over 14k CRM soldiers including other elite soldiers that probably had to stay stationed at other locations. Even though the CRC voted in civilian oversight, we’ll probably still have some issues with them.

I thought just the leaders/soldiers in red were eliminated. Not the entire CRM. (Not sure if that matters though).

You're right they didn't HAVE to take out the entire CRM because it's just the guys in red that we're doing doing the really bad shit

That’s the way to do it! THAT’S OLD SCHOOL! NO SCHOOL LIKE THE OLD SCHOOL!

Oh yeah and i'd really like to see a Rick and Morgan reunion

It’s a shame no Morgan, it’s shame that Rick doesn’t know about Tara, Enid, Jesus, Henry and Siddiq, both Rick and Michonne don’t know about Rosita, Beatrice, Laura and Alden

Just cause you didn’t see the convo doesnt mean he doesnt know. They dont need to recap every detail of season 9, 10, and 11 again. You already saw it lol It should go without saying that he will find out eventually. Those are minor details. Especially since he wasnt even close to like 3 of them people lol Thats just a waste of run time.

It's not about TWD. Never was but just imagine they will fill them in.

The premise of the show was to reunite Rick with immediate family. I would have loved to see everybody waiting for Rick & Michonnes return. The ending was very dry but I ain’t mad at it. You can’t please everyone.

I cried omg

Regardless if there is another season it's obvious this isn't the end of Rick and Michonne lol. We still have the big European cure storyline going on and on the episode insider Andrew said there is gonna be a power vacuum now at the CRM.

I for sure thought that rick and michonne were gonna just escape by the end of this season, then season 2 would be about taking down CRM and then the other characters coming back from their spinoffs to all work together

Cuz I rlly wanted to see negan and rick, for example fighting side by side or saving each others asses and then all the characters fighting CRM. And then after that fight. Then end the CRM with a bang. Then all the happy endings, Carol and Daryl finally make a relationship, and then yeah.

will there be a second season?

The big bad of the whole story is going to be jeanae and her french group/allies Its going to be them coming here eventually and ricks group (commonwealth, crm, negan (new york), maggie (the bricks/new jersey), morgan and the survivors from padre/texas, and then daryl with carol with the french survivors from the nest against them. Its kind of obvious that theyve been building up a reunified united states and then gaining a french ally similar to the revolutionary war amd world war 2. The colonies would not have won the war without french aid, and france had fallen and was liberated by allied nation troops. Its a full circle of coming back together. Even daryl has had an arc of constantly saying "its not my fight" and then getting involved. Similar to how france didnt WANT to help the states during the war but benjamin franklin (who in this story would be daryl) would ask for french aid and make the case that they can win with their help. Also the original owner of beales swords story of defeat/martyrdom helped rouse US troops to win key victories that made the french see that the US could beat the british if given proper aid.

Man Rick used some KUNG FU yessir

I liked it for the Richonne part. Glad we saw reuniting with kids. How did it take so long to get the saviors under control and take down Negan, but they destroyed an army in a day. I can let it go bc I'm looking forward to moving the story of our OG group forward😊❤

Yeah, but the fandom hated the Saviors all out war storyline in season 8. I think Gimple learned from his mistakes of the past for dragging out a long story. I liked the pace of TOWL.

This episode had me a nervous wreck the whole time. Would’ve like a longer episode for sure

Not gonna lie, seeing CRM destroyed like this reminded me of the Night King getting killed by one stab in GoT. My initial thought was this episode felt kinda rushed, with every problem being solved so fast. The plot armor carried by Rick and Michonne is HUUGE. And I am glad they got a happy ending as most of us expected, but somehow it just felt very compelled.

But overall, 9/10 show for me.

You are not alone in thinking this about the CRM. Nearly all 50 people I was with at the premiere for the finale. Said they wished the CRM and even Beale had survived. The common questions brought up, were: 1.) how could just two people wipe out an entire army? Let’s be real. 2.) what’s with the impenetrable character armor? None of the protagonists suffered any consequences or faced high stakes. 3.) why wasn’t Alexandria or commonwealth hit? 4.) how could Rick survive a literal grenade exploding less than 1 foot away from him?! 5.) wouldn’t there be dissent amongst the CRC about dismantling/ overseeing the CRM? 6.) wouldn’t a community that just heard their military be attacked want to protect their people from threats? ( Rick and michonne attacking them) Ricks group would do that. Try and protect their own from a threat attacking a community of theirs 7.) was the echelon briefing rushed? 8.) Beale said there were sleeper cells in many other communities, does that mean some are in the commonwealth, Alexandria( when Dianna was alive), etc.? 9.) why did michonne pick up the document after ripping it? There was no point. 10.) Beale said humanity had 14 years left till extinction, wouldn’t spreading out all the civic republics resources strain its reservoir? Does that mean 14 years are left for the show? Time jumps and all? I would have to say that I agree with all the questions brought up.

So carol definitely said Rick came back

Not necessarily. Morgan or Dwight could have gotton back before Rick

Love the episode but, Rick tried so many times to leave, when the michone showed up, he escaped just like that in an hour.. wtf moment.

I love this episode. That reunion was great, only thing missing was Carl... Really hoping for a 2nd season.

The writers came up with the best scenario on just how to take down the CRM. If there are only two people, how would you go about doing It? And I think that they came up with the best solution and Rick and Michonne executed the plan perfectly. I now see why Danai got the role of Okeye on Black Panther. This was a good episode and the only people disappointed were the ones who wanted more Beale. And the ones who had built up this big show down in their heads. Not understanding, that works only if you have more people with you. Rick and Michonne did it the way two people sent in to infiltrate an army would do it. My thoughts on what will happen if there is a S2. They let us know that Morgan is going to find Rick. I don't think they did that for nothing. They let us know that they take children from communities they plan to destroy, and embedded spies in every community and City across the entire US continent and the World. Is Beale's son embedded in one of the TWD communities? is he at the Commonwealth? Will he take back what they took from his father, and will Richonne's children be in danger? This was a great episode

imagine hyping up CRM for 12 years only for them to fuck it up this badly. horrendous

We actually know that thanks to tales that people make it past 14 years as they have an episode 20 years after the present

The crm isn't destroyed its just 3000 soldiers and 1 base the crm is still around and there will be more shows with them

The explosion should of been bigger, see how many missles were in there? It should of been the beruit explosion size but they had to make sure rick and michonne survived lol

I think if it have 1 or two more episodes it would be perfect. The ending did seem rushed and a bit too easy but I'm just so happy Rick has his family and they are home.

My episode ranking: 4 1,2 tied respectively 6 3 5 Best moments: Rick’s dialogue mentioning Carl, the artist and Michonne interaction, reunion with Judith and RJ, Nat’s presence. Music: 5/5 in particular the music that was played when Michonne and the artist were talking was by far my favorite. Will there be a season 2? I think there is a good chance to get Rick and Michonne up to speed. If this was an introduction to phase 2 then I am totally okay with how it ended. I hope in phase 2 the walkers will be a bigger threat than human vs human conflict.

Agreed. This episode felt rushed, I didn't like how CRM was wrapped up either and I wasn't a fan of Beale dying but it was a great episode still

The CRM almost managed to be worse than P.A.D.R.E. ALMOST. I wished they gave us at least a post-credit scene. Guess Twd Daryl Dixon will give us the proper reunion.

You should definitely watch LOST. Great cast of characters, amazing moments, really good setting and world building, constant mysteries being introduced and solved. Great show

Negan needs to see rick again too lol

The way it ended… Thorne could still be alive… 👀

I agree we didn't actually see her die in fact she was talking last time we saw her. Also unless you actually see a body no one really dies in this show. We have seen it time & time again

I wanted Rick to go back to Alexandria and reunite with everyone

The corrupt members of the CRM are not all gone, Beale said they have operatives embedded within communities all over the world, which I’m sure includes FRANCE. Not to mention, we also have the variant walkers to deal with now. Don’t get me wrong, I am a dedicated Richonne fan, I get that this show was about them reuniting, however, it was also about the CRM. That was an entire arc that started when the TWDU decided to have Rick taken rather than kill him off altogether. I LOVED that we got to see them reunite with the kids, but I feel like the CRM was too big to fall that easily. We may not get a season 2 of TOWL, but I don’t believe we’ve seen the last of the Grimes family, or the CRM.

I would just like to say that world beyond never built them up to be too big of a problem to deal with they were kinda just a bigger commonwealth and it only took a small group to escape in world beyond and uf anyone disliked beale dying just remember he has a son and they can do something with him the only issue i had was how ridiculous it was when thorne rick and michonne survived the explosion and gas when everyone else didnt? Other than that it was an okay finale not bad but it was kinda what everyone expected

How do you know that is Shane's daughter? I don't accept that at all.

Wait Beale told Rick that there are CRM spies in selected communities throughout the continent and the world so does that mean that the CRM knows 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

23:01 ahh, just the frontline team has been taken out. The CRM in its majority still stands, and the city has taken back control. Maybe it was convenient that the gas was near where the summit meeting was, but considering they were bound to ship out and take out Portland, I understand why they were there. Anyhow, CRM is fine. I had a small theory that since the city is allowed the leave now, maybe a portion of them left to be pioneers and create the New Babylon community we know much later in the timeline of DC. It’s nice seeing the world slowly pick itself back together!

Loved the end. Glad i was wrong about Michonne dying. To bad Judith didn't give Rick his gun back at the end that would have had been the cherry on top of the cake for me😅. Im sure we will get a new show or Rick going on the Daryl show at the end for a final reunion with Daryl carol and Rick.

They handled the CRM very well, but their ending was a bit rushed, yes. Was it bad though? Not even close.
