The Walking Dead: The Storm (2019)
Season 9, Episode 16
3/10
Kind of a Dud

Warning: Spoilers
Kind of a weird episode. With the drama from the last episode, I anticipated something of substance for the season finale. But it seemed more like a filler episode. They walked through snow. And got to deal with snow zombies which were no more threatening than other zombies.

There didn't seem to be anything that really built suspense for next season. And there didn't seem to be any reaction at all from the main group except for a defeated sadness. And apparently Alpha sent her people on vacation (whatever that means).

So much of this seems contrived. Judith wanders off so that Negan can rescue her, and prove himself a good guy. There's a blizzard because it's something different and adds a small obstacle. Lydia wanders off so Carol can sort of save her.

At least there was more Negan in this episode. He definitely adds something to the show, especially when so much of the cast is forgettable and uninteresting.
