I liked the episode, how suspenseful it was. But I'd much rather have had the payoff at the end. Disappointed there. Really would have preferred a couple deaths.
On the Talking Dead, they questioned them (Gimple and Kirkman) and they both said they like cliffhangers. Lot's of shows have cliffhangers. meh. I think cliffhangers work much better at the mid-season finale instead of at the end of the season. You need some closure.
They also tried to explain that the back half of the season was working towards Negen's introduction, not necessarily the death of whomever. And Negen's introduction concludes this story line. The death will begin a new story line (i.e. next season). meh again.
I just hope the death is a good one. Daryl, Michonne, Glenn (eh maybe Maggie with the baby or Abraham). Won't be worth waiting if it's Aaron, Rosita, Eugene. I think we can be pretty sure it's not Rick or Carl. Really need it to be Daryl, Michonne or Glenn to get a decent payoff.
