Well that would be possibly giving away spoilers so can't answer that. All I can say is the Kingdom does exist in the comic. |
How about in white? 
I googled the Kingdom bit and it was just general stuff. Wanted a detailed take from a comic book reader.

That has to be sarcasm imo. TWD literally beats the audience upside the head when it tries to make a point or *ahem* "develop" character. Borderline network TV. |
One of the best examples is the makeshift doc doing just that as she had the arrow do that to her. I almost wish they'd let Kurt Sutter direct a few episodes so he could forget enough plotlines to cancel out their lack of subtlety. |

I haven't read any comics or looked at any spoliers or wiki's for clues as to what's to come.... but it almost seems like they are setting up different pockets of communities and "teams" to come together to take down Negan and his army. Even with Carol and her little half-way house now. There's Alexandria, Hilltop, the Kingdom, Rick and his bunch, Tara and dreads and possibly Daryl as the "inside man".
Negan is able to control his groups because they are overwhelmed if they try to take him on alone. But if the groups unite... then they stand a way better chance. Just my thoughts.

Volume's 13 to 22 should give you the spoilers you seek. |

Lakers are a West Coast team. Most fans here are West Coast.
Heaven forbid that I'd want to see what other fans are thinking right before seeing the episode.
Or maybe people on the East could just not be snots about it. |

From Game of Throne style execution to Carol-Ezekiel flirt scenes... anti-climactic  |

****Possible Spoiler****
Based on the preview for this coming week's Daryl-centric episode.
It almost looks like the dude with the burned face (who I think they're trying to make a poor man's Daryl) is going to deflect. Looks like he's helping Daryl and getting tired of being under Negan. We'll see. It's gonna be easier to defeat Negan if you've got some people on the inside. Might come back to bite Negan that he let Daryl live and kept him so close.

I'll bet burn face meets Negan's bat soon. |

So Negan wanted to marry the girl with the pixie cut? Doesn't seem like his type.
I loved the first 2 episodes, but this one was more run-of-the-mill. They overused the "happy pop song during the apocalypse to create a jarring effect". They do it like every season. |

After that 1st ep. These past 2 have been weaksauce.
I stand by my thought that Dwight and Daryl team up to break out of the complex somehow and make it back to Rick and co.

I can see Dwight still wanting revenge on Negan

| Wouldn't burned face guy kill negan already? Like yesterday? He has access to guns, and private moments with Negan, especially the end of the last episode where he was standing there as Negan ask Daryl, "What's your name?" In reality, wouldn't a person who had his wife taken away, had his faced burned, forced to work, take these opportunities to end it? |

I finally caught up.
1. Dude has a (bleep) tiger. He better ride that thing into war like battlecat and He-man.
2. As others have said the Darryl and Dwight episode was kind of meh. If they are setting it up so he helps Darryl escape its kind of heavy handed, imo. Or maybe the girl helps him, I dunno. Its just weird that that dude is wearing Darryl's jacket, has his crossbow and rides his bike. You sir are no Darryl. |

Great episode tonight! Negan has Rick totally emasculated, lol. They lost all their damn guns. How are they gonna get out of this one? Easy, Eugene is going to build a death ray.
Spencer is a douche, can't stand him.
Dwight's bizarro-Darryl antics continue with him taking Darryl's motorcycle. Be your own man, Dwight. Stop stealing Darryl's (bleep). |

What was the smoldering pile of rubble Michonne was looking at at the end there?

| Am I the only on that is bothered that Rick (Andrew Lincoln) and Negan (Jeffrey Dean Morgan) are supposed to be the strongest / toughest characters, and neither look to exceed 150 lbs. soaking wet? I am fairly confident Michonne (Danai Gurira) could easily take both off camera in any type of physical combat. |

Michonne is probably 135.
But I agree that both Rick and Daryl don't exactly look that intimidating. Morgan could probably take both of them out. |

Remember its the apocalypse and all they got to eat is canned beans and stuff. it would look weird if there were all these tired dirty people and a dude looking like Super Fly Jimmy Snuka showed up.
Tonight's episode was kind of a filler episode. Not much going on. I just realized that that Savior guy with the mustache is also in Westworld. |
