"Fear The Walking Dead" is a good show, but it's not as good as this show and I'm glad we have it back. This celebrates the series' 100th episode and I just discovered that this happens to be the longest running series on AMC. I admit that this wasn't a big landmark for the series. None of the main characters died but it was still a great episode. It's great to anticipate the arrival of Daryl of course! I remember reading that Daryl has become so popular in the show the creators of the comics said they couldn't do the character justice by introducing him into the comic.

We get a lot of great setup and just scenes of the main characters walking around. We get them fighting Negan and his men as well as the walkers. We get great visuals with the zombies just being blown apart. There are these strange scenes where we see Rick as an older man with a daughter and apparently Michonne as his wife. Are these meet to be flash forwards or is this taking place in Rick's imagination? It's a great return to the show and it doesn't try to be too elaborate and just give us what the show is great for. ****
