The Walking Dead Season 9 Episode 5 - What Comes After - Review

 So for the Forseeable future I will be reviewing the Walking Dead, I have watched the show from the very beginning and have ranged from loving the show to finding the show really boring. So far Season 9 has been a return to form and has been a great reinvention of the show, however, this epsiode has high expectations as it is Andrew Lincoln's final appearance on the show.

Positives

. To start off with Andrew Lincoln delivers a high quality performance, he totally delivers an emotional performance especially as it is his final episode. The way he is written off the show is handled very well but I will go into more depth with a spoiler post tomorrow.

. I really liked the surprise cameos that were used in this episode that mostly felt appropriate considering the historic nature of the episode.

. Also there was a great scene between Michonne and Maggie that really worked and played into the emotion that has played into there storyline over the last few seasons.

Negatives 

. I wasn't a fan of the Maggie and Negan scene it came across as really forced, plus it made Negan seem really weak which is a waste of the last few seasons.

. Also the very ending of the episode leaves me with more questions then answers and I feel like it was a mistake.

Overall Grade

Overall, I really enjoyed this episode and felt it did a great job in saying goodbye to the most iconic character in this franchise. However, I am worried for the future of this show and am not sure it can keep up this momentum

Grade - B+
