With The Next World, The Walking Deads sixth season picked things up in the aftermath of its explosive mid-season premiere. Following the casualties of last week, including the loss of an eye for Carl Grimes, here we find Rick and Co. looking ahead to the future and trying to once again get back to some sort of relative normalcy. As such, Rick and Daryl head off to find new supplies, although they end up coming across a mysterious fella by the name of Jesus. Elsewhere, we see Carl back on his feet and spending some more time with Edith. And then theres the long-time-coming change in the dynamic between Michonne and Rick. Yep, that ever-growing sexual tension came to an, err, climax by the time this latest Walking Dead effort concluded. Throughout The Next World, as ever with The Walking Dead, there was a whole load of random, shocking, and surprising WTF moments.
15. Rick Is A Boston Fan?
Whod have thought it, but Rick Grimes is apparently a big Boston fan. With the opening moments of The Next World seeing Rick at home with his family, hes blasting out Bostons More Than a Feeling, which is a song that seemingly puts a big smile on the face of the usually ever-grizzled Grimes. Maybe if thered been more Boston playing throughout the shows run to date, we wouldnt have seen such a down, dirty and depressed Rick for large parts of the series' six seasons. At least we now know for future reference.
