In the comics he lost his hand loooooooong ago like season 5 i think when he did it here i was like "omg no..."
Somewhere on KZhead they show the last scene it's just 10 seconds longer and.....
This isn't comic Rick so them deciding to cut his arm off was a horrible decision now he has to film with one hand for No reason. They should have let Michonne cut his hand off at the end because him doing it and trying to go on the run was dumb (this show has a budget issue and the writers are more focused on things that don't matter like dream sequences)🤦♂️🤷♂️
Rick's New arm more like a hidden blade and more like a Assassin's Creed hidden blade
LOVE THE REACTIONS!
Wow!! We appreciate that!!!!
WE LOVE THE WALKING DEAD
This is the greatest thing walking dead franchise has done in years.
WERE THE ONES WHO LIVE BTW PLEASE MAKE A SEASON 2, YOU CANT WRAP UP ALL RICKS BEEN THROUGH IN JUST 6 EPISODES, WE NEED FLASHBACKS TO HIS FIRST FEW YEARS IN THE CRM AND WHATNOT, I NEED MORE RICKY DICKY DOO DAH GRIMES BOOM SHAKALAKA BOOM SHAKA😭😭😭😭
Rick was the only one on a leash btw. He kept trying to escape that's why.
Honestly, I thought Rick & Michonne will reunited at the end of the season. But the first episode is even better.
By far. ;) Scott, Danai and Andy worked on every episode together, if I'm not mistaken - with Episode 4 being written solely by Danai, as well as placed as the showrunner.
I thought that would’ve been the direction they would’ve went too. But I’m so glad they didn’t.
I just need the last episode to have a happy ending. He deserves to meet his son and be back with his family and his people. They better not kill Michonne, either.
Same here when I saw her and his reaction to seeing each other I couldn't stop crying 😭
From what I understand AMC wanted to wait until the end of the season for the reunion but Danai argued against it. I know she talked about how she had to be the person to really fight for the romance and the way the love story was handled. I’m glad she did bc as a fan I would’ve been livid if I had to wait all season for them to be together again.
So good and so heartbreaking. Andrew acted his butt off… I felt his pain😢
I agree. 😢Loved this episode, can't wait for the next one❤
This was so damn good. The highest quality of writing I’ve seen from Walking Dead in about a decade and the production value was absurd. 10/10 episode
Aggree you can tell , all the blood sweat and tears went into this
Haven’t watched anything walking dead related since the conclusion of the whisperer war. Which was like four years ago hahah but I watched this shows first ep and it was amazing
Well, now Rick know how Merle felt like when he took his own hand to get out of those handcuffs. I'm sure Merle would've loved that.
Merles was worse. At least Rick did it in one clean hit. Merle sawed his stuff off
@@webster2086 ricks was even better again as the hatchet was hot like the blade was burning so that would have made it even easier
Putting your cut off arm in flaming zombie guts doesn’t seem healthy
@@zjmgxclips5633 im sure the fire burned away any infection
why would anyone care what merle felt?
Not only is Rick cutting his hand off a nod to the Negan & Carl scene, it’s also a nod to Rick getting his hand cut off by The Governor in the comics.
I immediately thought of the Negan & Carl scene when his face went crazy right before cutting his hand, thought his PTSD from that moment kicked in lol
Also, it's a parallel to Rick making Merle have to cut off his own hand because he handcuffed Merle to the roof.
Andrew Lincoln wanted that as part of the storyline since Season 3 of the OG show, so he got his wish.
@@jillanderson3242 it’s crazy to me they said no because of the cost of affects but then proceeded to chop off like eight characters arms
@marcoallen3858 those characters had much less screen time, that's why
Michonne actually did push the helmet of the first guy off too. I went back and looked again. But this was a great first episode, I can’t wait until we get that ‘What the hell’ conversation between Richonne❤
Michonne lookin like a snack in those dream sequences 🤌🏾👌🏾🥰😍
Yes!!! Shes so gorgeous just dirty and surviving. Shes extra lucious here!!
My goodness did she look beautiful!!
I love the dream sequences
on god ! her in all white 🥵
Yes!!😂
Guy who played Okafor was an amazing actor , killed off way too soon…..
Since michonne was the one who did it fine with it😂
@@xkw9988 Nat did it
@@dwayne9486 who's nat?
@@tiffanyc4683 Nat is a little man that’s traveling with Michonne , he has the device that shot down the helicopter and Nat was the one who blew up okafor, which was poetic justice for the way he did Atlanta and Omaha…..
I was laughing my ass off with his deliveries, wdym lol.
What I love about Rick as a character is that he actually feels pain and whimpers. He almost always losses in fights and isn't always right.
Michonne was making sure that she didn’t kill Rick. She took the helmets off and checked for Rick before she killed them. She has this planned. We will see next week.
Since, he was the last one, Michonne prob'ly wanted to question him for something. That'd kind of make sense, no? Or she already had some info about Rick being among those CRM assholes somehow.
@@mangalvnam2010no if u look closely she was taking all the helmets off before killing them
@@madisonmontgomeryreal I did look closely and no, she did not remove the helmets of the other guys because they already had rolled off their heads when she killed them, only Rick was with a helmet still on. For that very dramatic effect, I am sure.
@@mangalvnam2010she was 1000% checking under the helmets, she just did it super fast
@@cassidy1454 Michonne was checking if they all were already really 100% dead, and let us not forget that she also had that old interest in avoiding that they turned into walkers, especially considering that their corpses wore heavy armor. Katana to the head to prevent turning, right? It is The Walking Dead still, after all!
This episode was amazing!! If you don't realize when Okafor tells Rick about the cities he destroyed. They were Atlanta (Lori and Shane had watched it being bombed in season 1 or 2) 😱🤯🤯🤯 Now everything is connected!!
Also on the map is the nuclear explosion from Fear.
They also showed Los Angeles from fear
I feel like I need to watch fear and world beyond
Andy is a phenomenal actor and Danai looked gorgeous with her braids and outfit changes.
I live in the UK but it was only a couple of years ago that I realised he was english. Same with Nick in FearTWD.
I really liked Okafor's character. Sad to see him go out after only one episode. Plus the acting was an easy 10/10. A perfect episode in every sense of the word.
perhaps he will be shown in those events that took place before his death
I love that TWD finally had Rick loses his hand like in the comics.
Man I still wish we saw governor cutting his hand in season 3
Rick himself, though, did not love that half as much, eh?
@@viper1436 it would of cost too much money to CGI out his hand for the rest of the time he was on the show and since this show has a bigger budget they can do that now.
I'm gonna say something you probably don't like, but it was kinda dumb they cut his hand off in the comics. That said, the prosthetic and the hidden blade are badass. But still, unnecessary.
This was a really good first episode. It’s so amazing to see Rick again.
The scene between okafor and rick when they fought and monologued to eachother was amazing. I love Andrew Lincoln
It’s only been 1 episode and I can already tell this is going to be my favorite spin off.
its the one spin off people will actually care about
@@dragerdetthe one I don’t care about at all is dead city
@@Us3r739 yeah I love Maggie’s character and actress but there was some cringe writing in dead city for sure.
Rictatorship is back! So happy to see Rick & Michonne on my screen again ❤ I’m going to need this episode to be submitted for Emmy consideration, because Andrew Lincoln has long deserved an Emmy! He absolutely crushed this episode and it was heartbreaking to watch! Can’t wait for the rest of the series!!
Eight years since they've laid eyes on each other! They have a lot of catching up to do and a lot of adjusting to who they've become living without each other for so long.
Is that actually how long they haven’t seen each other? The walking dead timeline can be confusing sometimes
I literally cried. So good to see Rick again ❤
Just like old times watching your reaction to TWD. My seat belt is fastened up, it's gonna be a hell of a ride! 💀👍
Exactly! ;) 😎🙌🏽
I don't think they should have killed of Okafor because he was an interesting character. But it was still a good moment of surprise
Totally expected him to live longer. He was very interesting.
The second episode will be Michonne’s journey from her perspective! 🔥
Great reaction. Absolutely INSANE first episode. They’re on fire here. Andrew Lincoln has been sorely missed in our lives. And shoutout to Okafor. He was amazing and went out a hero. Btw just realized something, he would've lost his hand/died regardless if he didn't do it. Michonne swung and hit where the arm would've been.
That end was crazyyy😂
This is gonna be GOOOOD. A few minutes in and the show already catches us completely off guard. So many twist moments!
I have been waiting for this one! We started here , We are the walking dead! Lets goooo
I cryed at the end off the episode. 😢Loved this first episode and i can't wait for the next one❤
All i know is Andrew Lincoln deserves an emmy. Hes been looked over for too long. Its time to give him the awards he deserves.
I thoroughly enjoyed the first episode. The production value, cinematography and the acting felt like a full length movie. I'm sooo looking forward to the upcoming episodes and especially your reactions.
I was actually blown away by how good this was!! The first 5 mins and the last 5 mins 🤯
So happy that the first two spinoffs (Dead City/Daryl Dixon) were fantastic, and this one looks like it's still going to be the best out of the three of them.
They're getting better then their terrible spin offs before like World Beyond, but those were still just decent imo. This has been then first that's actually really good, now I just hope it holds up for the rest of the season. Fingers crossed!
Absolutely agree, I think Dead City was Okay, then Dixon was better, just lacking in a few areas. This one feels like prime TWD.
God this feels like the good ole OG WALKING DEAD DAYS watching the episode then rewatching it with you guys to see your REACTION MAN WHAT A TIME TO BE ALIVE!!!!!
I feel the same way !!
“The world is ours, and we know how to take it.” Rick to Michonne (TWD S6 Ep 15) “We can make this whole damn world ours if we want to.” Michonne to Rick (The Ones Who Live S1 Ep1)
i love that they have Leslie-Ann Brandt and Terry O'Quinn in this.
Andrew Needs A Hollywood Star Just By This First Episode... It Was EPIC...... I've Seen Michonne's Journey & How She Made It To Rick.... It Is AMAZING & Also SAD At The Same Time😢❤😢❤
For a moment, I thought Michonne was going to get shot in the end after seeing Rick alive. I was sitting there, yelling "Well, one of you say something!"
11:33 thats Leslie Anne Brandt. Shes a South African actress, she played Maze in Lucifer.
She's also the original Naevia from Spartacus.😃
Nobody not talking about Michonne single handedly took down a chopper and still took all the soildiers with guns
I don’t think she did it alone. Based on the previews her buddy Nat made the weapons and you see him in promo material with the rocket launcher.
I think beal knew about okafor from the woman and sent him with rick on that mission knowing they would die but not knowing rick would live
👍👏
This is the day i have been waiting for!! This feels like a full circle from 10/15 years ago
We started with Rick...RICK GRIMES IS BACK BABY!!!!🎉🎉🎉 Also, I thought I was gonna have to wait for my reunion tears.🥲💓Rick&Michonne=forever,fierce love!
Finally a spin off that's actually really good. It's been so disappointing remembering the peak era of Walking Dead and where we've been, but this brings me joy from that time again!
I love how they took Rick out in a helicopter, then brought him back in a helicopter crash caused by non other then the woman that's been searching for him for at least 5 years or more.
I think jadis is working with oknfer and knew rick could help them, that's why she said he was a b
My favorite TWD reactors!!!! Been waiting about 6 years for this! But im more excited to watch your reaction! Steve thanks for all your hard work you put into this channel🙏 Love you guys!
Ayyyyyy Rick is back!!!!
What a start! We've all been waiting so long for Rick to return and I'm so stoked for the rest of the series! The real Walking Dead is back!!
This episode was so good. Looking forward to the rest of the season!
This episode was literal perfection! 😭😭 so much love and care was put into this. In blown away. Felt like I just watched a movie. Wow. Just wow.
Yes, Omaha falling as a city was in World Beyond. And I don't know if they'll say it in this show, but it was the CRM that was responsible. Also, Major General Beale was a name mentioned aswell. So far this has been almost a sequel to World Beyond more than the Rick-less seasons of TWD
This episode was so good I haven't been excited about an episode like this in a long time the end was epic
something Walking Dead fans have wanted for a long time and it delivered
I think Michonne killed the other CRM soldiers and kept the last one (Rick) alive to get information.
She tried to kill him but her sword hit his metal arm.
@@imbatman505 You’re right! Smh 🤦🏾♀️ That would have been awful !!
Ahhhh I screamed a lot during this episode it was a rush of emotions can’t wait for more episodes!!! Great acting from everyone!!! Great directing and let’s gooo we got our main character back!!!
They’ve already green lit a season 2 of this show. I knew they couldn’t leave us with just 6 episodes. Rick is the center of TWD universe. We will never stop wanting more of his character.
who said???😮
Bloodsworth Island where Michonne was is about 3 or so hours from Pennsylvania. Her running into him is an insane stroke of luck but makes a lot of sense.
I've been watching the walking dead since I was 8 years old way back in 2010 following this show was the most important show ever to me because I was into zombie survival game staff and the movie as well but this show is my number 1 favourite in my book
Not only did this 1st episode not let me down ( I was afraid that it couldn't live up to what I had wanted it to be after waiting for so so long) ...but it blew it out of the park!!! Freaking amazing and I cannot wait for the next episode
Its weird to think he's known Estavon longer than Daryl lol
That’s honestly kinda funny, good point 😂
Esteban*
So glad to see Rick and Michonne on the screen together ❤️
so good!!
The moment Rick gave up his old life is the moment that hope came for him.
The art of letting go
This was so awesome. I was not expecting the ending at all.
Now we officially have comic rick
I am a big walking Dead fan. The beginning scene was filmed 5 minutes from my house where he was killing all the walkers. They had trailers everywhere.. I unfortunately didn't get to see them filmed in my town but I did go to Jersey City New Jersey for one of the episodes being filmed but Andrew Lincoln had left earlier but I saw danai Guerra and she was so close to me but I was so starstruck when she said hi I said oh my 😂😂😂😂 I got a picture from afar but still I regret not asking for her autograph and pic
Please can you send me the picture?
How ? U have email?
Also fun fact the opening scene when he's killing the walkers in the abandoned lot you can see a brick Tower that was also where they filmed The karate kid when they were moving
@@melissaortiz7444 yes
That’s the first thing I said too “it’s so good to hear Ricks voice”
they are doing their story some fucking justice with this show its amazing so far
This is the reaction I was waiting on! I love this channel!
23:08 okafor was always a good person with rick, he left the phone in the bote even after he saw it
It was an episode that literally compared it to an episode of The Boys. An unexpected and bloody moment could no longer happen. Rick cutting his hand, and Okafor's death was very brutal. And reunited once again the two special person for this absolutely final end episode. RICK AND MICHONNE MADE ME CRY!!!😍😍😍😍😭😭😭😭
What a great start to the show. I’m sad to see Okafor go so soon, his scene with Rick talking about bombing the cities was 🔥. Michonne & Rick reuniting got me teary 🥹 I can’t wait until next week!!
Lovin the reactio especially the cliffhanger haha! Also i find this episode poetic. Its about love. He is continuously looking for love(Michonne) wanting to find over and over and then he gave up on love. And when he did, it found him.
Yesssssss such a good episode. Cant wait for next week to see Michonnes journey!!!
Michonne did put their helmets off.....lol I watched this episode 8 times👍 Andrew Lincoln is the best actor of if TWD as Rick Grimes... he's the G.O.A.T. and the LEGEND of TWD. Yes I love Negan too and agree he kept the show going by carrying it......but we finally got our Rick back. The Ones Who Live is #1♥️💯
This was some high level storytelling. 6 episodes!!!! I'm gonna want 3 more szns 😢
I started screaming "Katana, katana, katana" when i saw it at the top of my screen. I did not expect them to be reunited this soon. I don't usually watch the trailers when they come out because I want to be surprised.
That was bloody dynamite. Always nice to see Rick again. I survived all 11 seasons and i couldn't wait for this and i loved it.
They make a tool just like that in the gardening section for weeds it's amazing
I’ve missed you guys being so excited about watching the walking dead it makes me so happy
17:26 Omaha. He did hear that Nebraska is nice.
Im glad to see you guys are still here and thriving! 👍🏼
I swear i heard the world scream yesterday when the show ended.
Oh my god guys, this episode was so good. I watched last night here in Australia 🇦🇺 and I rewatched this morning 😊 I’m so looking forward to the rest of the series and can’t wait to see all of your reactions 🩷
Happy will be watching your reactions once again and I have already watched this episode twice because I missed Rick so much. The first five minutes had me gasping and crying and in shock, but it was the greatest episode.
Missed Rick so much. Love from cork Ireland
It’s a good thing michonne didn’t straight up murder Rick at the end there.
On second viewing, I remembered that Michonne's weapon in the first trailer has Michonne using that whistling weapon on the hoard of walkers. I wish I had noticed that before the big reveal!
Left me speechless 😶
When Rick left the show that's when I think viewership went down It's like having a Batman show with no Batman, Rick was The Walking Dead And when the show ended without him being there it just didn't feel right. Them having Rick cut off his own hand that didn't sit well with me.
First 5 mins I was yelling "oh shit !" My neighbour's were also coming along for the ride if they liked it or not 😂
Old rick grimes will do anything to get back to his family thats why I love he choped his hand off the walking dead is just different from any other show
Omg the reaction I’ve been waiting for ❤️❤️
What a awesome gift, amazing first episode. Cannot believe we're finally here.
That combined "Ah!" at the end was everything great reaction you too!!
Now they both have to escape 😭😭
Yeah, that feels possible depending on how Michonne’s people respond
Shiz was crazy crazy! cant wait for next episode! we have waited. for soooo. long. bruh plz just drop it all at once! thx for the good react vid! see ya at da next one!
As soon as I figured out this show was out and watched it I raced to you tube for y’all reaction 😊❤
The way Nikki screamed at the episode ending there 😅
