A Recap: The Walking Dead’s Mid-Season Premiere And A Look At The Next Episode

Warning! If you have not seen the mid-season premiere you might want to stop reading NOW. The second half of season 7 of ‘The Walking Dead’ premiered last night. And a lot happened in the episode. Both King Ezekiel and Gregory denied Rick his request for help to take down Negan and the Saviors. Luckily, a few residents did join the cause. The group left Daryl behind with hopes that he can convince King Ezekiel to change his mind while at the same time keeping Daryl safe from Negan and the Saviors.
