The Walking Dead Season 6: 9 Minor Details That Could Be Huge

RPGs are for firing, not for admiring.

Remember the days when watching a TV series was a one-off experience? You'd see the episode on one of five analogue channels, without any ability to pause or rewind, and once it was over, there was no social media available to pore over every microscopic detail. That was it. If the internet wasn't a thing, a fraction of a per cent of The Walking Dead's colossal audience would have picked up on the clue the would ultimately lead to Glenn being alive following his 'death scene'. But now we live in an age where every last word is brutally assessed for clues, hints, foreshadowing, and any crumb of information that would get us one step ahead of the game. The Walking Dead is a wildly unpredictable show, but as we draw closer to the second half of Season 6, there are plenty of minor details from the opening eight episodes that could become significant factors in the group's future. Not everything will come back to the fore, but you can fully expect some innocuous moments to return in some big ways.

9. Greedy Spencer

Spencer was an oddly-used character. He barely featured in Season 5, then all of a sudden he entered the mix in Season 6 with a seemingly big storyline alongside Deanna. But once he started to emerge as a character, he simply vanished. He had been stealing rations from the Alexandria supplies despite guilting others into being strict with their own portions, which all led to a confrontation with Deanna. There were little moments showing Spencer snacking, yet nothing really came of it, and he was nowhere to be found when Deanna died. Could Spencer's habits finally be given some reasoning?
