I wish I could, unfortunately there is no way how to watch it officialy if you don't live in USA. I don't understand why they can't just put it on Disney+ like the last season of TWD or on Amazon like FTWD or WB in countries where AMC+ doesn't work.
When Rick finally “gave in” and dedicated himself to the military it reminded me of the story he told of his grandfather in the season 5 barn. How during WW2 he told himself something along the lines of “rest in peace, now get up and go to war”. I felt like thats what Rick was doing here until he got or made the right opportunity to get home.
definitely thought that too. get up and go to war and literally accept he’s never going to see his family again but he’s going to try and rebuild the world for them even if they didn’t know it
OMG! That's such a clever point. Never thought about it that way. I'm still worried because does this mean that he's giving up on his family. Like stop trying to get back to them and let it be.
That helicopter scene was absolutely insane, really thought Oakfor would be a big character. Also the fact that 2 minutes into the episode rick cuts his hand off. Im happy at how good the ratings are for this show
So many moments my jaw was dropped. Oakfor dying was insane! 2 feet to the right and Michonne would’ve killed Rick and she wouldn’t have ever known she blew up her man. Very happy that Andy and Danai are creators for this show it was a great🔥 start
@@Mythical.History they’re cocreators/writers of the show with the head of the walking dead Scott M Gimple. They were involved in all the creative decisions
@@Ryan-gz9xgwhy didn’t the writers have Michonne kill Rick in the helicopter and end it there and for the last 5 episodes just have it be related to this
Actually surprised how good this episode was. It explained so much and the little details were really interesting. Only bad part was killing Okafor off this early, I really liked his character but now it adds so much to the complexity of where Rick is mentally now
I loved the fact that she killed Okafor in the most gruesome torturous way FIRST!!! 😂 He will not be keeping anyone else husband against their will 😂 😂
I was gutted that Okafor died too, it looked like there was some kind of bond between him and Rick, there was respect for Okafor from Rick for sure after all those years, definitely thought the series might go a different way before he got blown to bits. I reckon Rick goes back to the CRM whilst plotting something with Michonne
Now that he’s dead that means him & that other female solider have to take over his plan of having to change the CRM from the inside. It’ll make it harder for him to leave now, especially now that the plane crashed they’re gonna come looking for them since he called out the coordinates of his location right before he crashed so he can’t even pretend that he died in the crash as well
Holy hell! I was beyond impressed with this episode. Rick losing his hand, great background to why he’s been gone for so long, the unexpected twist at the end…wow, this is why I loved the walking dead. Can’t wait to see how this season unfolds.
@@290revolver290I feel like the showrunners respect the fans. When people complained about the earlier seasons they really did turn things around. Although the ending of season 10 and 11 were mid, they were able to deliver better spin offs than the previous ones. I haven't watched Fear or the other trash but these new spin offs are actually good because they involve characters we actually care about. Yeah Morgan was in Fear but the writing just all over that show was dog shit. None of the characters were ever interesting from what I've seen. These new ones are the only spin offs I actually gave the time of day to
@@plaguedoctor4519 We also should not forget that Andrew Lincoln portrays Rick so well like his life depends on it 😂. Not so many characters in the series do that. I guess we'll call it pure love.
@@sageof346paths3 Im not saying you did, what im wondering is what was so bad about the scene? Its something that was supposed to happen in the first season of the original show. So him losing his hand makes sense and is payoff for fans of the comic.
@@astromeo3467 dude what the hell are you talking about nobody said it was bad either. And everyone knows what happened in the comics that's got nothing to do with what I said at all. Your the only person here talking about the comics and trying to defend something that's not even under attack. Your weird fam
Maybe it's just because Rick is back, but this show seems to be the most faithful to the original series (compared to dead city and Daryls show) in this episode so far, I really hope they continue to throwback throughout the series though. Once Rick left the show, it just never hit the same for me, so I'm so happy they finally got Andrew Lincoln back!
Where was this level of story telling and passion in the later years of The Walking Dead??? I loved this episode so much made me feel like I was watching the show for the first time again. I also loved that the chopped Ricks hand off that shit was about time.
i really hope its not just another 6 episode mini series like the others. there are too many questions that need answering with what's going on in the world away from rick, michonne & the crm. we have carol out looking for daryl.. daryl looking for rick.. negans change that rick is unaware of.. RJ who rick is also unaware of.. the liberation of commonwealth & how they move forward with the communities after the finale. there are so many questions that have the potential to be answered with this show if the producers decide to make it an ongoing thing, i'm just really hoping it doesn't finish on s1e6 leaving us with even more questions. TOWL should be the series that brings it all back together with multiple seasons continuing everyones journeys from the end point of their spin-offs. from carol finding daryl, & then going to look for rick & michonne.. & i'd like to see maggie help rescue negan back from the croat & then fight their way out where they try to return to georgia. so much can be added to this if the producers decide to keep it going.
@@dkitis6239 I downloaded the torrents from the bay. Possibly, maybe you can find it in one of those streaming websites or apps like novatv or cinemaapk .
@@discustingdude123 Well. They could have saved that for EP 3. I would have ended EP 2 with that scene from tonight. I duno I waited a long time for that to happen. We all did but it was wayyy tooo fast. But we know Scott Gimple with his obsession with cliff hangers so lol
My guess is that the culmination of all three spin off series will be in a movie or special event series where everyone is reunited in Alexandria and it will lead to a combined Alexandra and The Commonwealth joining forces with other small communities to go to war with the CRM. I can easily see characters from the OG series crossing over with major characters from Fear, World Beyond, Dead City and Daryl and Carol in one last big farewell to the Walking Dead Universe.
You don't go to war with Apache combat helicopters, there's no way they can take down the CRM by force. I think that he'll want his people to be able to live in a city like the CR, that's what the dreams with Michonne are all about imo. He'll explain everything to Michonne and they'll find a way to take over the CRM, because they are the ones who lead ! Ha !
I'm glad Gimple teamed up with Gurira and Lincoln to create this fitting and long-awaited post-finale limited series. This first episode was really well done! Let's hope the remaining 5 episodes give loyal fans of the show some much need closure.
honestly this is the best add anyone on youtube has ever done. I have to hand it to AMC as I was done with the walking dead but with Ryan Arey doing these breakdowns ill actually watch it now like im sure tens of thousands of others will. Hope you guys got PAID a good amount and they give you a big bonus when they see viewer counts go up from this.
I needed this breakdown BAD cause all the time jumps and spin offs had me confused!! TY!! Hope we get to see a few more of the original cast weave back into this storyline too. ALSO, loved seeing John Locke from LOST as General Beale!!
Funny you say that because personally the Walking Dead content is the only stuff I personally watch. I checked out of Marvel a few years ago but TWD’s still got me hooked!
@@Ruleof2Review man. I watched the negan spin-off and the first episode of the ones who live but i still need to watch Daryl Dixon spin-off before season 2.
Thank you for doing an episode by episode breakdown. These other channels just did the whole season in one go and I’m not a fan of that. Thank you for being one of the few!!
Soo no one else noticed when Rick was cutting his hand off was a clesr callback to when Negan was gonna make him cut Carls hand off?!? Even down to Ricks facial expression
I do not agree. I can guarantee you that it probably has double the viewers that they thought was going to be. Think about how many fans The walking Dead have.
What's sad is the poor writing/direction TWD had later on and the spin-offs. That is a huge reason why the viewership dropped. The later TWD was some of the worst TV I've ever seen (I don't watch a lot of crap), even when Rick was still in it, but more so when he left. The spin-offs have yet to impress besides the higher production quality. At this point, I'd be surprised if this turns out good. (It is too hard to judge from just one episode.) You'd think AMC would hire writing talent for their cash cow. you know, like they originally did at the start.
Whatttt? The last time I checked Sunday AMC channel views was about 870k. That's not a small amount of viewers and that's just locally. International viewers still can't access the first ep. I think TOWL will get more viewers than the other spin-offs. I'm 100% sure it. It might get about 1 million viewers for ep2 because the internet almost crashed when ep1 aired LMAO. A lot of people are getting back on board because TOWL was downright bad@ss and really good storytelling.
This show was a breath of fresh air. As good as the Daryl Dixon show and dead city were, this shows first episode was better than anything the others have offered. Maybe it’s nostalgia for Rick Grimmes or Andrew Lincoln’s stellar performance but I think this show will go down as the best spinoff of them all. So many answers to questions already is what I loved !
I think another cool hidden Easter egg is when Rick is telling the story about his father how, for a moment he saw him as a monster but in that moment, Rick was also calm and felt safe, remind me when Rick bit the claimers neck to save Carl …Carl’s reaction was similar Where he saw, Rick become the monster yet he knew he was safe with Rick
I am so happy that they dilly dally around with answering the questions most of us had about what happened to him and why he had not returned. What the A and B thing meant and the reunion between him and Michione not taking episodes to get to.
Daryl basically responsible for all the bad shit that happened. He made it so the saviors were able to escape the sanctuary in all out war. Which eventually led to carls death. He got Glenn killed. He got Rick “killed”.
Post #2: Also my theory is the leader of Dead City (NY) is wanting Negan to lead them to take on the CRM which will cause a faceoff again of Rick vs Negan Rd 2. Maybe even Daryl and the French Squad!
Whoa! Would be epic but since they share so much TWD screen time and character it'd be a bit weird...you'd think Shane and Rick were transported to another universe
@@JoePizzeria007 A shocking bit of writing to cover the lack of plot - seriously Rick Chopper gets shot down, the other soldiers are immediately killed, but for some reason, MIchonne decides to remove his helmet before killing him and "OMG it's Rick!" - WHat are the odds of them meeting up this way? Sorry if it's the Palpatine ref you don't get
Bro Oakfor dying i was like "NOOOO TRAVISSSSS", scenes are very similar and i miss travis, me and my bother called him Mr. Meat Hands because the hefty punches he threw back in seasons 1 and two of fear.
I wonder, with that we know now with the ones who live, if the helicopter in Atlanta in episode 1 was CRM and was planning on bombing the city, again (because of the horde), but someone decided against it
In the scene where Okafor is talking with Pearl and Rick, he hands them the book, “The Art of Peace,” the same book that Eastman gives Morgan to bring him back to sanity in the original series.
This episode was great! There’s a few small things like michonne only lifting ricks’ helmet and the arm removal being a little unnecessary, but the reunion and the sweet ass hidden blade more than make up for it.
Consider the A and B scenario as it pertains to an earlier part of the series. Rick and most of the group were taken to a boxcare to wait to then be slaughtered. They were in Car A. There was a guy released from a different car, and they had to kill him. Now, since we know now what A and B really mean, in the series, could crm have been in communication with terminus and was collecting subjects. A facility as important as terminus was would not go unnoticed by Cr or Crm. And that guy was definitely in that boxcar for a long time, considering how cray cray he was. I doubt he was on the menu.
Kirkman always said he regretted taking Rick's hand so early on. I think thats why it took so long. It was an almost homage to Day of the dead his fave zombie film which also had a hand chop scene and fire cauterisation
I loved hat it told us he tried escaping 4 times, not just once as it wouldn’t feel right, Rick is the type to keep trying, even cutting his hand off makes sense as he’s trying to get away, love how they show him slowly accept his fate and realise staying away might be softer than returning, can’t wait for the rest of the show off to an incredible start
in episode 2 the small japaneise guy gets shot from behind by a crm agent rick and michone thought was dead, two big purple bon fires are lit to clear the horde from the vally just after the moment from the season 11 finale that michone rides to on her horse, and the yellow clouds from the trailer burnt out theyre lungs and they had to get oxygen tanks and breath with them for months probuly even years, and at the end michone's freind the small japanese guy is the one who shot down ricks helecopter and they reunite and rick has to take her back to the crm and sucsesfully gets her in without the crm knowing they had a past together, apart from jadis who comes in at the last minutes of episode 2 and tells rick that they have theyre own secrets between eachother (rick and jadis).
What a first episode. I cannot wait to see this story play out. Rick & Morgan have been my favorite protagonists in not just TWD universe but on TV. Already want more than 1 season.
People, please don't cut a limb off if you find yourself in a desperate situation like this. Just cut of your thumb or at least break it enough to get the cuffs off. Same if you are in a Saw type situation, there's no need to cut off the whole foot when you can break the foot or at worst, just cut off the heel enough to get the cuffs off.

I am so happy that they dilly dally around with answering the questions most of us had about what happened to him and why he had not returned. What the A and B thing meant and the reunion between him and Michione not taking episodes to get to.
The ones who live in walking dead to the extreme and it can add fresh stories in there since most the comic has been covered.
This episode was perfection! It felt like a movie. I’m glad it was slow paced like the tv show.
Thank you for covering this show!!
Imagine at the end of it all Rick just wakes up in a different hospital with Lori Carl and Shane 😂
The longest bait and switch ever, even better he wakes up and starts writing a book about his dream 😂
Meh. I like Michonne much more than Lori. Plus, it's too Wizard of Oz-ish of an ending.
@@BunE22 yeah I wouldn't want it to end like that either im just saying like if rick was just in his coma the whole time lol
I would sue AMC for killing my mental health. Right now my mental health is 100% healthy and thriving. lol
This was better than I expected. The best of the 'reboots' imo. Wish they were keeping Okafor. Interesting character
Awesome episode 👏 hope the rest of the season is as good
I love the amount of walking dead coverage TH-camrs are giving it to it now, it feels like 2014 again
Kind of surprised they killed off Okafor in the very first episode. Really liked that character from the little bit we saw
Dude I am sooooooo excited for this series
I’m really glad they didn’t drag out the reunion
Daryl basically responsible for all the bad shit that happened. He made it so the saviors were able to escape the sanctuary in all out war. Which eventually led to carls death. He got Glenn killed. He got Rick “killed”.
Post #2: Also my theory is the leader of Dead City (NY) is wanting Negan to lead them to take on the CRM which will cause a faceoff again of Rick vs Negan Rd 2. Maybe even Daryl and the French Squad!
Lincoln and Bernthal need to reunite for a True Detective season.
That would be so good
This is the kind of thing I didn't know I needed
Whoa! Would be epic but since they share so much TWD screen time and character it'd be a bit weird...you'd think Shane and Rick were transported to another universe
I absolutely loved this episode! Great writing too. Was heaps better than I expected!
yessss so excited you’re covering this show!!!
What did you think of the episode?
The way Michonne found Rick = "Somehow Palpatine Returned" - Until then I was enjoying it
@@d1v1s1onby0 what u on about 😂
🔥
@@JoePizzeria007 A shocking bit of writing to cover the lack of plot - seriously Rick Chopper gets shot down, the other soldiers are immediately killed, but for some reason, MIchonne decides to remove his helmet before killing him and "OMG it's Rick!" - WHat are the odds of them meeting up this way?
Sorry if it's the Palpatine ref you don't get
I loved it!!!!
Bro Oakfor dying i was like "NOOOO TRAVISSSSS", scenes are very similar and i miss travis, me and my bother called him Mr. Meat Hands because the hefty punches he threw back in seasons 1 and two of fear.
This episode was wild 😂😅 I mean it was really fun I can't believe how they did okafor 😂😅
I wonder, with that we know now with the ones who live, if the helicopter in Atlanta in episode 1 was CRM and was planning on bombing the city, again (because of the horde), but someone decided against it
Andrew Lincoln is such a good actor
I hope they bring in more B's and they flesh out this concept through other characters! Great first episode, we're in for a treat!
In the scene where Okafor is talking with Pearl and Rick, he hands them the book, “The Art of Peace,” the same book that Eastman gives Morgan to bring him back to sanity in the original series.
just sheer brilliance & nostalgia whenever rick is around tho
This episode was great! There’s a few small things like michonne only lifting ricks’ helmet and the arm removal being a little unnecessary, but the reunion and the sweet ass hidden blade more than make up for it.
The Toby cut was absolute perfection.
The reason I watched the og show...it this. Soo good
Consider the A and B scenario as it pertains to an earlier part of the series. Rick and most of the group were taken to a boxcare to wait to then be slaughtered. They were in Car A. There was a guy released from a different car, and they had to kill him. Now, since we know now what A and B really mean, in the series, could crm have been in communication with terminus and was collecting subjects. A facility as important as terminus was would not go unnoticed by Cr or Crm. And that guy was definitely in that boxcar for a long time, considering how cray cray he was. I doubt he was on the menu.
For a short second I thought crazy Rick was going to come back . BUT he is for he’s wife and kid … HE WILL
Rick reaction after releasing that grenade will always be Funny and iconic
Kirkman always said he regretted taking Rick's hand so early on. I think thats why it took so long. It was an almost homage to Day of the dead his fave zombie film which also had a hand chop scene and fire cauterisation
I loved hat it told us he tried escaping 4 times, not just once as it wouldn’t feel right, Rick is the type to keep trying, even cutting his hand off makes sense as he’s trying to get away, love how they show him slowly accept his fate and realise staying away might be softer than returning, can’t wait for the rest of the show off to an incredible start
man ur videos are so good
Wow the first episode was so good. Every turn in this show was like 😮.
in episode 2 the small japaneise guy gets shot from behind by a crm agent rick and michone thought was dead, two big purple bon fires are lit to clear the horde from the vally just after the moment from the season 11 finale that michone rides to on her horse, and the yellow clouds from the trailer burnt out theyre lungs and they had to get oxygen tanks and breath with them for months probuly even years, and at the end michone's freind the small japanese guy is the one who shot down ricks helecopter and they reunite and rick has to take her back to the crm and sucsesfully gets her in without the crm knowing they had a past together, apart from jadis who comes in at the last minutes of episode 2 and tells rick that they have theyre own secrets between eachother (rick and jadis).
I keepy fingers crossed that Darryl or Rick will come across Rick's brother. He died in the comics, but there's so much potential in the character
Glad they did reunite this episode. Actually gives me hope we will get a proper ending
I wish this franchise was still shot on film. It made the show and the walkers look more realistic. Digital exposes too much.
A very good written episode and expection was met at it's highest
Episode 2 is awesome. No spoilers for guys though
It was, have any other episodes been leaked yet?
All Rick had to do was chop the cable off instead of his hand
this makes no sense. you don't chain up a prisoner then give them a weapon strong enough to destroy the chain.
@imSovi you ever tried to cut through a steel cable with an axe that's already been used?
@@DatBoiChris420 yep, it's easier than chopping through bone with one straight chop 🤣
I fell in l9ve with Okaford. He was so awesome his voice and backstory killer. Sucks hes dead
I got to see my girl Michonne again❤TheOrginalWalkingDeadForever👊🏼
What a first episode. I cannot wait to see this story play out. Rick & Morgan have been my favorite protagonists in not just TWD universe but on TV. Already want more than 1 season.
People, please don't cut a limb off if you find yourself in a desperate situation like this. Just cut of your thumb or at least break it enough to get the cuffs off. Same if you are in a Saw type situation, there's no need to cut off the whole foot when you can break the foot or at worst, just cut off the heel enough to get the cuffs off.
I love how this show brought akk the timelines together
