Ah, more fun from Greg Nicotero. 

In Not Tomorrow Yet, Rick's group and Hilltop need to find a head that looks sufficiently like Gregory, the leader of the Colony, so they can take it to the Saviours and infiltrate their base. 

One of the heads that we see under consideration, and the one they actually choose, belongs to Nicotero himself. One of the others, however, is Johnny Depp. Speaking to EW, Nicotero explained: 

"One of the other heads, I don’t know if I’m going to get in trouble if I say this, was Johnny Depp. I think we had sculpted an emaciated version of a dummy head for something and we used Johnny Depp’s head as a basis just for a clay sculpt." 

What other Easter eggs did you spot in Season 6? Let us know in the comments.
