Well I mean, out of all the Winchesters that there are or have ever been its really only Sam and Dean that are hard to kill and keep dead. And even then it's really only the "stay dead" part that's hard, they die frequently enough. 2 out of 32455 Winchesters...I mean, at this point it's pretty clear God's or some other dude has some money riding on those two for all the divine intervention that keeps interfering in this shit.

Given what we know via time travel John got at least one freebie. But yeah.

I'm gonna have to lay a ground sheet down when he turns up. What with him AND Daryl I suspect my ovaries will shoot out my ears.

"Well, we know at least some of the Saviors are still out there, and ruthless as hell ... so why don't we have virtually all of our most experienced and competent soldiers wandering around outside the gates doing God knows what?"
If the characters had been this stupid from the start of the zombie apocalypse, they would have all died before the pilot.

Honestly they were stupider at the start making all sorts of amateur hour goofs.
As for the saviors they have not demonstrated the kind of numbers or organization to attack Alexandria directly. Even if everybody they have captured thus far died a frontal assault on Alexandria would likely go poorly for them. The Wolves only had success to the degree that they did because they broke the walls and were on essentially a suicide run. The Saviors (at least from the information we got from Hilltop) seem to be unlikely to break your walls or do anything that would make you incapable of providing them with goods.

Sadly, I think Carl cheats death again.

Negan flat out said it wasn't Carl.
"If anybody moves, cut out the boy's other eye and feed it to his father." Carl and Rick are alive and well.
The question is whether Glenn, Daryl or Abraham got it.
It's not Maggie cus no orders on earth were keeping Glenn from attacking if it was her. Of course the discresion shot leaves a woman open.
Still my money is between Daryl and Glenn with a sad leaning towards Daryl.

It really doesn't matter who it is because he said he wasn't going to kill the person, just beat the ever loving shit out of him/her. It gives the show an out and still allows them to be at least partly faithful to the comic by it being Glenn.
Just saying.

He didn't say he wasn't going to kill the person. Head trauma like that with no reason for him to assume they have a doctor is likely to be fatal. If you were jsut beating the hell out of someone you'd go for ribs and other things that are less fatal.
Yeah it's supposed to be Glenn. But Daryl was on the Talking Dead and lets face it, that's essentially a death sentence.

You're trying to give a fantasy show some sort of real world logic but the show has never follwed that.
Someone may very well be dead but Neegan said he was going to "beat the holy hell out of someone" and we never see what he actually does. It's an easy way for the show to have yet another stupid cliffhanger and take the summer to decide whether or not they really want to kill someone.
People are already pissing and moaning about it and it's just going to get worse because fans are getting tired of being manipulated every other episode.

Most fantasy shows have quite a bit of real world logic. And the people in The Walking Dead are not by and large tougher than real life people. This isn't Arrow or Buffy where a bat to the head is annoying and a bullet generally leaves a flesh wound you can stitch up yourself when you get home.
Anybody who has read the comics knows that Negan DOES get a kill at this point in the story. And while the comic and show have clearly diverged in many ways that's a huge highlight to skip.
Fans piss and moan. It's what they do. And you may be right, they may not kill anybody. That was a shitty way to end a season, but in fairness the Walking Dead is a "complete" story so I'm less prone to bitching about cliffhanger endings than I normally am. Personally I believe at the end of your season things should have reached a conclusion. Enough that if you don't get picked up for next season we can easily figure out what happened. "They all lived happily ever after except that one douche who got away. The end."

While less dramatic than an A-list star why is everyone forgetting Eugene?
My money is on Abraham and or Eugene unfortunately as I dig both characters.
That hug scene (Abe/Eugene) and that I'll have a baby with you I'm ready scene(Abe/Sasha) are my clues.
Who are these Renaissance fair wanna beez on horseback?

They've already skipped over the deaths of Carol, Morgan and Judith not to mention all the ones that died or presumably will die out of synch or by different means. Not killing Glen or killing someone else doesn't really mean much.
And in fact they gave a nod to the comic with Judith back in the prison with the bloody baby carrier, making us think she was dead while ultimately going in a different direction.
But of course this is what they want people to do, guess and guess and guess until October and that's what is beginning to piss people off.

I forgot about Andrea who's still alive but killed off in the show a while back.

My gut says Maggie. Logically I think it's Abe or Sasha based on the lineup and some other context clues.

Abe is supposed to be killed by Dwight in the near future so he's a possible but he's also a fan favorite and the show has always been hesitant to kill those.
Sasha isn't in the comic so killing her wouldn't change anything in that respect thereby making her a decent choice for the big sleep.

I'm forgetting Eugene because I don't think he's a big enough character. Negan is a huge deal and as such needs to have impact. Impact I don't believe Eugene can provide. Same as Denise before. We weren't pissed she died, we were pissed the survivors are still stupid enough to let doctors leave the house.

I could see Eugene dying in a general sense because the character was sort of "redeemed" in recent weeks, but I think fans would feel cheated -- er, feel even more cheated than they already are -- if there's a six-month cliffhanger for the death of someone who, let's face it, is a secondary character.
I think only Daryl, Maggie, and Glenn have that sort of significance. My guess is Daryl, because I thought from the moment we met Jesus that he was being groomed as a replacement badass.
See above. A cliffhanger where no one even fucking dies?
I think the obsession the current showrunner seems to have for getting the show on track with the goddam comic really ruined this past season. In order to force this confrontation, Rick and his people have had to act like complete idiots for several episodes in a row.
And frankly, all the orgasmic squeals of the comics people about "NEGAN IS COMING OMFG!!!!!!" haven't swayed me from my original opinion: this is nothing we haven't seen on this show before. Middle-aged psycho runs a compound, except this one has both his eyes. Yeah, exciting.

The governor had both his eyes until he started fucking with us.
