MAggie and Negan SPINOFF??!!!

Byrdie

I mean they are two of the better characters and whatnot but what in the actual hell is anybody thinking?!

(Sorry if this has already been brought up and roasted to infinity)

DoubleT

Could be a good show, but that's 2 more of the main cast with plot armor for the rest of this final season.

Maggie pursues Negan and he flees to Manhattan?  I guess.  

Or Maggie has some quest and comes across Negan while on the island?  OK.   

Part of me wants AMC to lean into the romance angle, really get squicky with kissing and cuddling and sex scenes, just for it to be a long con by Maggie before she bashes Negan’s genitalia to paste.

They're going to NYC?

Its just mind boggling to me that the actors themselves want to continue this part of their career.

I hope that the rest of this shitshow isn't so much of a downer that Aaron isn't against reading the rest of the comics and doing an episode on his impressions of the tectonic level of drift from the source material that's taken place. (Jim too obviously though I don't  think he's read the comics at all)

Supposedly it's a happy set.  Cohan may be gun shy about other offers after her Whiskey Cavalier series wasn't renewed.

I’m imagining the Perfect Strangers intro but with those two. I even watched the YouTube video chuckling to myself.

I'm thinking a similar dynamic to Moonlighting.

Jim has, but he quit earlier than A_Ron.

I wish I was doing something more fulfilling with my career!

Well great then, maybe they will be willing to plow through the comic run and grace us with a podcast as part of a final retrospective dealion. Otherwise I guess we can pass the hat and try and force their hand with a commission?
