After that bold, fan-freakout-inducing cliffhanger that closed out the sixth season of "The Walking Dead," you know there's no way Greg Nicotero, the series' co-executive producer, effects supervisor, and director of the episode in question, is going to offer even a hint as to which of Rick's band of survivors ended up on the fatal end of Negan's barbed-wired Louisville Slugger.

But Nicotero was perfectly willing to offer a little insight as to how the show ended up at a moment that left the fan faithful looking at several months of nail-biting ahead before the doomed member of the Grimes group is revealed and his thoughts on the explosive fan reaction to the scene. He also plants a very persuasive seed of doubt for when the cast appears in shots taken during the production of the upcoming season -- meaning don't start your process of elimination when shots from the...

After an entire half-season of build up last night, The Walking Dead finally introduced Negan. The reveal landed with a resounding “thud,” and not the kind fans were hoping for. But long before those final moments left us all wanting, a lot of nonsensical puzzle pieces had to fall into place. So I have to ask: Are the Saviors magic? Warning: Spoilers Beyond This Point. Scarier than Terminus. More organized than the Governor. Better staying power than the Wolves. The Saviors were supposed to be the game-changing Big Bad™ that would upend the zombie world order as we know it. They’re supposed to be terrifying. Instead, they’re cartoonishly evil and it's hard to be scared of cartoon villains. Case in point: last night, The Walking Dead season finale gave up the pretense of being a dramatic tale of survival in a post-apocalyptic world and became an elaborate Wile E.
