McDermitt kicks off his blog by diving into the fourth episode of season 7, Service. Oh wait, this isnt as exciting as I had hoped. Oh, no, its very sad.

The Walking Dead: Josh McDermitt recaps season 7, episode 7

I felt like Carl couldve pulled the trigger and mowed down Negan. He didnt; hes a kid. He himself probably would have died had he tried that route. Credit: Gene Page/AMC; Todd Williamson/Getty Images Yo girl, Imma go kill Negan right now. Thats how I imagine Carl spits game. And, honestly, Im surprised Carl was able to kill two Saviors as he only has one eyeball. We saw him playing darts....

But instead of fighting back this time, Eugene sat there and took the abuse....

SPOILER ALERT: Read on only if you have watched Sundays episode ofThe Walking Dead, The Well. All hail King Ezekiel! Im just dying to talk to people about it and see how they feel about the character himself. Credit: AMC Ezekiel says later that she had him fooled at first.

The Walking Dead: Khary Payton on Ezekiel's big episode and big loss

The aftermath was not good, as practically every Kingdom soldier was shot dead. (The two of them were then in turn saved by Melissa McBrides Carol.) But the most painful moment was yet to come. Gene Page/AMC But as weve seen with Ezekiel and weve seen him tell this to Carol this is leadership. How much fun was that scene to shoot?It was an incredible day. That entire day was incredible because it is such an amazing speech that they wrote for me....
