Heroes of the horde!

She shows up in the most serendipitous fashion. humdrum? Anticlimactic? Flat? She barely talks to anyone.

I just came away feeling like this was more of an afterthought than some epic final showdown. There were some great moments like Gabriel’s last stand (and timely rescue by Maggie and her mysterious masked friend) but everything just zipped by and it ends up feeling like a less impressive battle than the battle for Hilltop and a less satisfying end to the Big Bad than Negan’s beheading of Alpha. I liked how our heroes drew off the horde with music-that whole scene was very funny, actually-and I enjoyed how they hunted the Whisperers and took out Beta. No other major characters other than Beta shuffle off this mortal coil. Carol didn’t stop to save her from the horde and nobody cares. The only named character to die is that chick from Oceanside who, let’s face it, nobody cared about to begin with. Far from being doomed, our heroes come out of the finale stronger than ever.
