The Walking Dead Season 6: 10 Things The Mid-Season Premiere Got Right

3. THAT Scene

I mean, wow. In one 4:22min scene, The Walking Dead managed to kill a child, his Rick-lover mother, and his gun-toting brother. The first pair via walkers, the latter through Michonne's katana after putting a bullet through Carl's face. And there's also the detail that Rick had to axe chop Jessie arm off in order to save his son. 4 minutes, 22 seconds. In the first half of the episode. The intensity of that short sequence could fill several entire episodes that were dedicated to just lazy filler. A show that can explode so viciously should never be short of drama, meaning we can only hope for more outrageous moments as the season wears on with its bulging cast.
