Seeing this episode early with a live Talking Dead audience was a real treat that I won't soon forget. Just like a film premiere, the energy and atmosphere really enhances something like that over simply being on my basement couch. This proved hugely beneficial as it was the mid-season finale and gave us a major death with the passing of Jesus at the hands of the Whisperers. Anyone who wanted this show to get back to its horror roots and re-establish the eerie tone of the first couple seasons, you got your wish. Not only was this episode scary but it set a new precedent with the Whisperers and how the rest of the season may transpire. Oh and you know, Negan also escaped this week, so that was cool!
