Review of Mercy

The Walking Dead: Mercy (2017)
Season 8, Episode 1
7/10
Could be so much better
28 October 2017
I can forgive TWD's writers for not killing Negan yet, but at least put the main characters in a situation in which they can't kill Negan, rather than in a situation in which they can but don't. It's almost common sense to do that, rather than have about 20 people armed with machine guns not do anything at all while they stand in front of their greatest enemy, who is unarmed.

Did the episode ever explain why they wasted so much ammo shooting at windows? They could have easily killed Negan, but they chose to shoot at windows instead.

The only reason I'm giving this a 7.5 out of 10 is because it was a well shot, enjoyable episode (for the most part), with some good scenes. "Mercy" isn't a bad episode, but the writing just feels a bit lazy.
