The Walking Dead: Hostilities and Calamities
Hostiles and Calamities focused entirely in Camp Negan with the arrival of Eugene and the aftermath of Daryl’s escape. This episode had some good and some bad, so without further ado, it is time to break it down.
Dwight
The show is trying to make Dwight into this sympathetic figure, but I don’t buy it for a microsecond. I find nothing remotely likeable or appealing about Dwight. Now that his ex-wife is gone from Neganville, why in the world would he not just take that motorcycle and keep on riding? He could go south, north, east, or west. Any direction would be infinitesimely better than his current situation. He’s an Idiot. He should have been the one thrown into the fire. Speaking of which, what could possibly be the upside of framing the doctor for Daryl’s escape?
Eugene
Eugene was the bright, shining light in this episode. I liked how he acted and the evolution of his character. He started off as this scared, cowardly wuss, but his sly smile showed that he was playing Negan all along. He once more pulled off the lie of having PhDs and being part of the Human Genome Project, the same lie he propagated on Abraham back in the day. He may not be a genius, but he certainly has the ability to sound like one and more importantly make others believe that he’s super smart.
Negan
The more and more I watch him, the more I’m convinced that Negan is a terrible character. He’s supposed to be the scary, big bad boogie man, but he comes off as a ridiculous clown. He’s not remotely credible. There’s no way he could lead all these people the way he acts. He’s going to kill the community’s doctor based on Dwight’s world? That’s beyond Idiotic. He could never last treating his people like garbage the way he does. Yes, Kim Jong Un is an insane megalomaniac, but the difference between him and Negan is that the North Korean dictator is so heavily protected that nobody could get to him no matter how much they wanted him dead. Don’t believe me. Watch The Interview. When he threw the doctor into the fire, what would have stopped about fifteen to twenty disgruntled Neganites to bum rush and kill him? Absolutely nothing. And taking that sort of chance makes a helluva lot more sense than living the way they do.
In the end, this was an entertaining episode but not quite as good as the others so far in this half season.
