I agree with all our points here. Well said! But to somewhat answer your question, I'm not sure why the writers do these kinds of things. I guess they want the audience to fill in the blanks, and imagine that things happened off-screen, and that we'll buy it. But then other times, the writing is so obvious, like you said, with the one-off Tara episode. Overall though, last night's episode felt like the strongest one of Season 7 (so far)!

You're an IDIOT to agree with the MORONIC op, who cares that they showed a moment between the two, they're from the same camp together and fought zombie wars together. Do the show runners have to show every little detail on how they may have interacted??? Get a clue you DUMB KUN//-T

This is actually effing hilarious to me! The boards are closing down, and Dorky is spinning out of control. If only he knew that in all the time he's been here, his trolling skills haven't progressed beyond a third-grade level. I do fear for his mental health and stability when the boards go. Maybe he can try EW or People?

It just pisses me off because it's wank-doodles like this that has caused the place to be shut down.
The place became unable to be moderated because of the trolling fools, and so instead of fix that - they just shut the whole thing down. People ruin everything. :(

I know, but there's not much we can do about it now. As much as I am going to deeply miss the boards, there is part of me that relieved to know that these losers can't infect others with their poison anymore. More and more, we're moving towards a "member verified" type of message board with Facebook/Twitter profiles, Disquss, etc. Maybe that's for the best. I love freedom of speech, but I have grown exhausted having to read the horribleness that has overtaken imdb.

Yeah I would have been happy to even pay a small amount per month for some sort of service from IMDB to keep the boards going just with registered/paying users to keep out the trolls, and hire a proper moderating team. But I don't think they thought it would be a popular idea.
I don't think IMDB has anticipated how many clicks they actually get from people looking for discussions on various TV series and movies, and I think it's going to be the entire websites downfall.
So many times I've seen an old film on TV, or caught up with an series and come by yeah sometimes to read the cast list - but mostly just to read the discussions, even if I didn't post or reply.

Most awkward bonding moment was the flirtation between Tara and Spencer shortly before he engaged in the most unfortunate game of pool of his life.

Tara has probably been randomly selected to cry the most when Morgan dies. Then the audience can say, "Oh, that's right. They were close. Remember when they hugged at the Kingdom?"
With Ezekiel getting more screen time, Morgan will need to die. There can be only one.

I didn't mind at all the embrace between Tara and Morgan. Obviously, she got to know him in the months he spent at Alexandria and knew he was Rick's friend from way back, so therefore a person to be trusted.
What bothered me was indeed the lack of acknowledgement from Rick. Like, jeez. He was so cold. That let me downhe hadn't seen his friend for presumably, weeks. For all he knew, Morgan could've died, but he didn't show an ounce of happiness or relief. Barely even said hi. Maybe that could be brushed off to Rick being stressed out and preoccupied with Negan and the Saviors but still.the writing could've been better on that.

Another peeve. No one ever talks about their dead in any real meaningful way. The lack of emotion and lack of connection to what has happened makes it hard for the audience to feel any empathy.

I think that it's natural that people have become callous in ZA where deaths are frequent and random, and the living are doomed and can't be sure whether they get to see another day.
In this very case, it felt weird that Maggie and Daryl mourned Glenn on their own but when they met they didn't acknowledge Daryl's privity to it. It's like nothing ever happened between them.

How do you know? Like you said they were both at Hilltop and Daryl is wearing different clothes from those that he escaped in. I don't know about you but I think he had to have been there long enough to change. I would think that they spoke at least long enough for Maggie to ask if he wanted a t-shirt or a button down. And I think myself Maggie has enough brains to know that Daryl didn't smash her husband's head in, Negan did. There is only so much time that can be shown for personal interactions on the show. Are you upset we didn't get to see yet another exposition scene with Maggie weeping, rending her clothes and scratching Daryl's face off for something he didn't do?
The story is moving forward and I suppose the director wanted to keep it moving without any more time outs. Thank goodness.

No it wouldn't have been. It would have been a distraction from the story. You just have to blame someone else for Negan's crimes. Who knows why because it's a mystery to anyone with a working brain.

How could it have been a distraction? From what? It's the first time that they met and had an opportunity to speak since Glenn's death. They probably should've sorted out that sooner, but they didn't have a chance.

It would have been a distraction from the storyline which at that point had moved into forward gear. We saw Maggie working her way through her grief, we saw Daryl working his way through his grief, we didn't need another Kumbaya played out on the screen.
Funny I think that's exactly what you are doing. Only I think you want to see Maggie flay Daryl alive because Negan used Daryl's reaction as an excuse to kill someone else. I am not the one having a hissy fit because that wasn't played out on screen to the detriment of the reinvigorated spirit of 'Fight Back' that we got.

Again, I don't blame Daryl for Glenn's death, but he was involved in it. Negan doesn't kill people without reason. He had a reason to kill Glenn to show Rick that he was in charge and he wasn't gonna tolerate disobedience. Do I really have to explain this to you? Gosh.

Daryl was a victim of Negan's brutality. It starts and ends with Negan's and his followers actions.

I know, I know. Daryl just had no idea what Negan was capable of because he hadn't just witnessed him bludgeoning Abraham to death and firmly believed that he could stop Negan's heavily armed gang with his bare hands.

Like 51 minutes long dramatic momentum? Oh, I'm sure writers could have managed to squeeze in this scene somewhere.

No, only for us. But it wasn't needed. Their rebonding was implied with imagination.
One fault was Rick's acknowledgement of Morgan, or the lack of. The writer's did a poor job there.The group considers themselves family. If you hadn't seen a member of your family for quite a while, didn't know if they were alive or dead, wouldn't you Immediately run, or at least walk real fast to prove they're alright by getting in a bear hug?

It was not shown on camera. Daryl escaped the Saviors and went to Hilltop, but that was not shown. Rick and Co. arrived and Daryl was already there. Maybe they should have shown it, but they went for the "surprise" of Daryl appearing when Rick arrived. They have ignored this ridiculous theory that it was Daryl's fault Glenn died and Maggie should hate him for it. It is a stupid concept and I reject it.

7b started where 7a ended, it was the same day, so they could've as well squeezed in this scene in the premiere.

Iirc, Daryl did feel guilty for Glenn's death while he was in captivity. I think it would've meant a lot to Daryl if Maggie explicitly said that she didn't hold it against Daryl.

You don't know what happened between them. We were spared another scene where people say they are sorry, thank goodness. We just have to live with the fact that the writers and directors assumed the audience had enough brains to figure out the gaps without it being written large on a blackboard. It's a TV show, not a dramatisation of Maggie's diary.

Daryl blames himself for being born and puting his mother through pain, that has nothing to do with Maggie's feelings and as we all know Daryl doesn't talk much to anyone about his feelings. All so Negan didn't need a reason to kill Glen anymore than he needed a reason to kill Olivia, Negan likes to make a point and he makes his points with litterally overkill.
Hopefully, you haven't either.
Actually I have. He changed his plea and went to prison, but I think I would have done my civic duty when push came to shove. I did think he was guilty. It was a nasty case.

Yeah, yeah, I get it, you have rampant imagination, but can you just stick to the topic for once?
Daryl doesn't talk much to anyone about his feelings.
Sometimes he does. And if Glenn's death wasn't a right reason to express his feelings, then I don't know what is.
All so Negan didn't need a reason to kill Glen anymore than he needed a reason to kill Olivia, Negan likes to make a point and he makes his points with litterally overkill.
He killed Glenn and Olivia in retribution for Daryl's and Rosita's attacks. It wasn't Negan's fault that they were stupid enough to attack a leader of a hostile community who has an upper hand with literary bare hands and one bullet. If you ask me, Negan should have killed attackers instead of timid bystanders, but hey, it was a writers' decision, and who am I to argue with The Writers, it's the highest rated show on TV, blah blah blah.
but I think I would have done my civic duty when push came to shove.
I have a lot of respect for you summeriris, but I don't always trust your judgment. You come across as biased, self-righteous and easily agitated more often than not. You think that everybody who has to say anything negative about the show is a hater or a troll. Not necessarily. Some viewers just don't turn a blind eye to inconsistencies and suppress their negative feelings. I actually like this season a lot but I'm not gonna pretend that it doesn't have any flaws.

So, when did Tara bond with Morgan?
But then Rick who has known him the longest and by all accounts should have the deeper connection, barely acknowledges him.
When did we ever see these characters interact or speak to eachother let alone bond enough for a hug-off? lol.
Meanwhile the reunion of Daryl and Maggie didn't even get shown!
Also is it me or is Tara getting more and more screentime, and seems they are trying to make her the new 'comic relief' now Eugene has disappeared.
I quite liked the actress when she first started, I liked her spunk and attitude - but she quickly lost it and has just started sticking out like a sore thumb without much purpose. Her character just seems aimless, and her motivations uninteresting. Her girlfriend storyline with the not-Doctor was ridiculously forced, and I felt the episode she had with the female group was poorly acted, but on top of that an erroneous plot device/MacGuffin to get their hands on weaponry. (So convenient!)
