    First off I would like to say I enjoyed Season 4 very much. However I cannot seem to think of what is or may be coming in the next half? The story started basically fresh from Episode 1 and seems to have concluded with Episode 8 with everything being wrapped up.

    Correct me if I missed loose ends that still need addressing. There was no cliffhanger no push to indicate what is coming next. Just seems kind of strange to me.

    Or am I missing something?

    Edit: Some sites seem to indicate that the Madison being dead as a shocker but I was under the impression that we have know for a few episodes that she had died either due to the vultures or escaping the stadium. This was no shock to me and I'm sure I'm not the only one.

    I was actually expecting the cliff hanger to be Madison still being alive somehow by escaping especially in those last few minutes of the episode. Then right when I was expecting Madison or maybe even something else to appear at the last second; we get a ending that suggests no continuation.

    2nd Edit xD: Okay I didn't realize there was a preview for Episode 9. But still...

    I look at it this way.

    Season 4 is a soft reboot of the series. What started off as a story about a family trying to survive in this world is becoming closer to what TWD is, a story about a group of strangers who become a family trying to survive in this world.

    So in that sense I think 4A was an introduction, sort of how the first season of each show was short and basically set up the rest of the story. Same with this first half, it introduces characters and gives some back story to them, closing out the half season by not leaving any arcs left to resolve. No bad guys to overcome, no immediate danger to face. A group of people sitting around a camp fire telling stories. Again, sort of like what we saw in season 1 of TWD.

    So now that the backstory stuff is out of the way, we know who these characters are and what drives them. The story can now unfold. With no loose ends to tie up, the second half of the season can jump right into their new challenges.

    And let's hope it's a good one, with no over-the-top "villains" and cartoonish characters, just basic apocalypse survival and drama!

    Yea, I would love to see the group on the road heading somewhere for a while. Make it a traveling show, with a specific destination. Watch them go from place to place and see the types of people they encounter.

    Maybe Morgan takes them to Alexandria??
    I'm very disappointed with the way Madison supposedly went out. Was she just bitten to death and became a walker? Did the flare she threw start a larger fire that burned her and the walkers? Too much is left open. I won't believe she's dead until I see a body or Madison walker. They talked it up pretty good on The Talking Dead, but I'm not convinced.

    I vote nobody goes anywhere for a while, except fishing and canoe riding.

    I think they had something going in Season 3 to create a "Western USA" like situation like it is on the East Coast with Ricks ASZ, The Kingdom, Hilltop, Oceanside, The Sanctuary or wtf Negan called it, the Foundry? And anything else they find out there.

    With Prepper camp, Indians, Daniels Dam and the bad dudes but nope.

    Although Madison is probably dead the fact we didn't actually see her die makes me wonder if she is actually dead. It could be Glenn all over again xD.

    She was pronounced officially dead on The Talking Dead, and you could tell she was still grieving the loss of that role. She resisted it when they told her, but TPTB insisted it was the right time for the story.
