This post contains spoilers for ep 6 of daryl dixon

so finally watched ep 6 (the last one of the series) and let me tell you: it's bad. AdNag was wonderful, his hair were perfect, his face so kissable. 100% the highlight of the episode.

Anyway quinn dies (we knew it. let's not pretend we didn't) he get bitten by a zombie during the arena fight and in his last conversation as human he asks daryl to tell isabel he helped them an all. jesus christ, you're dying can you be less of a simp?

so let's talk about this episode for a minute. first half is them escaping the zombies in the arena (which daryl dixon has barely any difficulty in doing. he even lift one with a pole. really.) then the militia guys (was enough to fire one shot at random and they run away) and then our heroes were back on the road just to have the most nonsensical 5 minutes in the history of plots: does anyone remember the militia guy that wanted to avenge his brother so bad that in looking for dixon he got at least 40 people killed? the same guy that was cheering for a zombie to eat off dixon's face 3 minutes ago? that guy that was shown as the right hand of the boss? well after 5 episodes of murder after finally having dixon at the end of his gun he decided he wasn't going to kill him. bc he didn't want to kill laurent apparently, but the 20+ dead nuns is fine? the other innocents from the club? the paris commune? they can die. it's fine if he doesn't want to kill the kid but daryl dixon was right there, why not kill him?

second half of the episode they reach the nest and it's maybe the nicest sequence in the show so far. not enough that i can forgive everyone being dressed like background characters from a 40's movie or a group of french people picking the token american aboard student as their leader or everyone still speaking english for daryl or these people needing daryl to teach them how to use a rifle. but okay at least the sequence was nice. i don't believe that nuns taught laurent about aristotele but okay. i still have some suspension of disbelief left. at this point the people from the nest found daryl a lift home (kinda) and there's a ship waiting for him on the coast of Normandy. You know what we just found out? that dd's granpa died on the coast of normandy during ww2 and daryl sniffs on his grave even tho he never met the man and had a bad relationship with his dad. it feels like the american writers of this show had a list of things americans and french had in common and ww2 was the only thing left. anyway laurent then shows up from a dune and waves at daryl and idk it's implied daryl will take him to america? this kid only has bad ideas.

at the end of this season i can say this was the first draft for the show. not one single character has an arc. characters were underdeveloped, they had no solid background for their personalities. bad guys were bad until the plot needed them not to be. and those who were bad were bad just because. Genet she was a night guard at the museum and now she's leading a militia, i'm not saying it's impossible, i'm saying that without seeing even a glimpse of her character evolution she feels hollow. the guy wanting to avenge his brother does a 180 in a minute, killing 4 of his men. what is the journey there? he could've been a great character development, if he got developed in any way. Quinn, went form british living abroad (job still unknown) to nightclub owner that simped for Isabelle for 12 years but never ever in all this time looked for her once. and now that he died nobody cared, they made the big reveal that he was laurent's father and he was the ONLY person laurent showed no sympathy to?? Isabelle, laurent and the other nun, they saw everyone they lived with die and were okay, no faltering in faith, no grief. no lets go on with the plot. the other nun cared so little that she left them when they needed help the most and joined back when the risk was over. like?? girl what? I want to talk about laurent, he never questions he's god on earth, everyone told him he's special and in all his journey he never doubted for a second that he wasn't even if so far more people died than how many he helped. he saw murder, violence, hunger, pain, living dead and he didn't care at all. and now daryl dixon, i started the series knowing nothing about him and now the only thing i know is that he's the typical grunts not speak no friends type. zero connection with his character. he went throughout another tuesday of killing zombie and people and what bothered him the most was that everyone was speaking french.

this series gets a 4/10

Not the adnagnews profile managed by some (ex-)tumblr users getting tagged by an actor. Like imagine this dude goes to adnag and tells him, hey I tagged you in the photo. And adnag is like what :)? And starts digging and finds all of us insane people who have been obsessing about him for years

the way i see hickey and goodsir is like. hickey wants goodsir so so badly Specifically Because he knows he's totally immune to all his bullshit and would never ever fuck him. like he canonically likes the Chase so why would not chase the most unavailable guy. but eventually that just starts to piss him off and it leads into a kind of extremely pathetic obsession where hickey thinks he's his Nemesis and goodsir doesn't think about him at all

did adam nagaitis ever say that his dream role would be winston smith from 1984 or did i just hallucinate reading that

[favouritefi]

The fun thing about being faceblind is that I have no clue who the terror people are, but my brain just reblorbos them to be other guys in catboy situations

anon plz tell me who you're reskinning hickey into bc that guy has such a distinctive face i have no idea who could replace him

[armandism]

[moonmanstan]

ADNAG NEW EMPLOYED PRINCESS ARC?

[lonelyroommp3]

i do like the terror’s rather teen drama esque approach to casting its leads. like they get the extremes right in that the ship’s boys are all played by guys who look like they’re barely old enough to legally buy alcohol, and anybody who is clearly meant to be older (crozier, franklin, etc) is also cast very much within the correct age bracket. but anyone who was historically in like their mid 20s is an absolute free for all. adnags in his early 30s playing a 26 year old, liam garrigan in his late 30s playing a man in his mid-late twenties, paul ready definitely about 15 years older than historical goodsir. silna’s definitely meant to be like late teens-twenties and you know who was the perfect woman for the job? nive nielsen aged like 38 at the time of filming. don’t even get me started on them making 27 year old twink alexander macdonald into alexander macDADDY or the whole bridglar age gap switcheroo. absolute scenes all round

@stolperzunge, something like this?

Medieval AU 🐎🛡️👑

[aboutyoutoo]

had a dream that i met adnags and told him he's done great things then felt the need to clarify that I meant he's done great things as mr nagaitis and not as mr hickey. okay.

[acheronist]

do we think adnag actually managed to commune with the real spirit of real cornelius "touch my steak knife and i'll kill you" hickey or did he just get possessed by an egregore of e.c. for the television role of quote unquote cornelius hickey. either way something aint right with that boy

[boatswainer]

started chernobyl because i heard it was good and also jharris and ADNAGS IS ALSO IN IT???

[cyberturbine]

honestly i can imagine adnags larping as a random terror fandom person that posts a lot about hickey and writes about him constantly

[jartnell]

Sucks that I don't have a dick or a chance of meeting him bc I desperately need to put a baby in adnag
