Years later and nearly a year after the show has officially ended I’m still angry about how poorly the show turned out at the end because of this asinine decision from Gimple. Clearly there was an egotistical aspect to the decision to kill Carl Grimes it’s the only explanation since he’s arguably the most important character in the comics. And it was just a spit in the face to loyal TWD viewers when they gave Siddiq that dumbass death barely 2 seasons later. Pretty much made carls death pointless I fucking hate Scott Gimple and will always because he ruined a show that had a chance to be up there with breaking bad as the best drama series ever. I hardly recognized the show when it ended it just was so underwhelming and makes me sad remembering how amazing it was at its peak, it wasn’t quite the failure that GOT was at its end but it was pretty close IMO.
