My Theories on The Walking Dead After Rick Grimes

If They do not end The Walking Dead in Season 9 or 10 after Rick Grims and Maggie leaves, here are some thoughts on what could happen.

So in the season 8 finale we find Negan laid up in bed recovering from a slit to his throat from Rick only to have Rick save him. Rick and Michonne then tell him how it's gonna be when he gets better.

Now if Negan somehow escapes and kills Rick, I am sure somehow he will die, Someone will kill him, I am sure of it. But what if he is truly rehabilitated and Dwight kills Rick and Negan Kills Dwight and gains the groups support and they rebuild Alexandria until the next disaster unfolds.

what if Negan dies, Daryl and Maggie take over they leave Alexandria for whatever is next but Michonne makes her exit? I don't see Michonne staying on much longer because Danai Gurira is getting bigger roles in Hollywood and is now a part of the Marvel universe, so who knows what is next for her. And with Rick Gone, her story is over

But wait! Maggie can not be a part of any take over because she is leaving soon. Is it possible that in a crazy plot twist that she would kill Negan after he would kill Rick? Or What if she kills Rick and Negan Kills her then him and Daryl would fight it out to takeover the group.

Because of all these possibilities, I just don't see the show lasting with out Rick Grimes and Maggie Green. While Daryl Dixon is a strong part of the show, I just don't see him as a leader. He is too rebellious. However what if Carol Peletier took over? She could fill all the gaps and after all, she can make decisions that Rick never could. Carol knows how to feed kids cookies and make them look at the flowers. And if a deadly virus breaks out, she will get rid of the sick and burn the bodies

I am not saying it's impossible for the show to go on, but it's going to take real creative story writing to keep it going.

Thoughts on The Walking Dead Season 7

As  write this, it is now two Sundays away from the finale of Season 7. For me this has been one long and crushing season. It was hard for me to watch, but it was a strong part of the whole story of The Walking Dead. We have seen this group overcome hell over the past 6 seasons that when we experienced Season 7 it was a the punch to the gut that would not get better. It was the everlasting common cold. It started with the deaths of Glen and Abraham, Daryl was captured and did not escaped until episode 8. The first half of the season was depressing and hopeless. Rick Grimes was beaten down so bad it was as if he was dealing with depression. The saviors just kept coming and taking the guns and the beds just to burn the mattresses in the middle of the road. It is hard enough to have something stolen from you and watch someone enjoy it, but just to steal it and have it destroyed was more painful.

But at the end of episode 8 we saw a glance of hope and Rick seemed to come back to himself and the birth of a plan to fight back after Daryl escapes Negan's prison. I am still wondering how King Ezekiel will play in all of this and will Sara give up the group she encountered in episode 6 called Swear and if they will play a part in the end? If so, how? Do not forget Carol, because she does what needs to be done. If you see her getting some gas her target may want to find flowers to look at. And I am more then positive that Jadis from episode 10 called New Best Friends will play a big part in the season finale. I have read that Negan will be back in Season 8. But how many episodes I do not know. I don't think he will be killed off at the end of season 7

Even if team Rick wins the war , there will be a heavy cost. It is almost certain that Sasha will die because of what has been reported on the verified news sites, but still can not say for sure. Who else might perish in the war.

it's Time to RISE UP!
