The Walking Dead Season 7: 3 Ups And 4 Downs From 'The Other Side'

1. And So Do Rosita And Sasha

I can't say I was thrilled at the prospect of spending time out on the road with just Sasha and Rosita, especially given the angry, moody nature of the latter over the course of the season (yeah, Abraham died, but her arc hasn't been well written at all).

Overall it was a mixed bag, but it did thankfully go a little way to making amends for the Rosita story arc, thanks to her and Sasha finally sitting down and talking about the past.

As Rosita opened up about where she came from, the things she learned, and meeting Abraham and coming to Alexandria, it was the most likeable and understandable she's been in a long time, making me wish they'd done this a lot sooner.

Having Sasha there with her was the obvious choice, given their shared history with Abe, and made for a strong moment of connection between two women who've both lost someone, and are determined to get revenge for it.
