If Negan winds up killing either Glenn or Daryl (both fan favorites), then the call for swift justice will be even more vociferous.

Then it occurred to me that the real victim of this terror tactic is Schrödinger’s cat. The victim — whoever it is — is in a state of suspended animation, both alive and dead, for seven freaking months until Season 7 begins, just like in the famous thought experiment. To recap the experiment, loathed by cat lovers everywhere: we put a living cat into a steel chamber along with a vial of hydrocyanic acid. There is a tiny amount of hydrocyanic acid, a radioactive substance, in the chamber. If even a single atom of the substance decays during the test period, it will trip a hammer, which will break the vial and kill the cat.

An entire nation of The Walking Dead watchers is feeling very twitchy and jumpy right about now as the hours tick down to what is arguably the most anticipated episode ever of AMC’s unlikely smash hit. Why so edgy? Since it was announced last November that Jeffrey Dean Morgan would play Negan, the dreaded leader of the villainous Saviors, and make his appearance in the final episode of Season 6, there has been constant speculation as to the consequences of that freighted debut.

Is it sacrilegious to sympathize with the devil? Is it legitimate to humanize Lucifer under the pretense that he has “retired” from running hell and is now slumming with the humans as a nightclub owner in Los Angeles? Most transgressive of all, is it acceptable to present the scheming Fallen Angel as a seeker of justice and champion of personal responsibility? That’s exactly what Fox is doing with its new show Lucifer, Mondays at 9/8c.

This Valentine's Day massacre was bloody, gruesome, and unforgettable.

'Horace and Pete' stretches the definition of 'television show' and extends Louis C.K.'s art even further.

A key element of the show’s mythology is that when Liv (or any other zombie) consumes a brain, she experiences memories of the dead person,

'It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia' remains in good form, with a bonus for those who have stuck by it all these years.

I was so wrong about this week's "The Walking Dead!" Glenn lives! But it's an especially stinging defeat when the writing that saves him doesn't make sense.

If future episodes can keep up this pace and round out the supporting characters, CBS has a real hit on its schedule.
