A collection of later season takes that nobody wanted to hear.

-Negan alone is the only character who should have a spinoff, not Maggie, Not Daryl, not Rick. And it should be its own thing, not having any ties to the CRM.

-AS a matter of fact, the entire CRM is a lazy story arc, basically just Commonwealth 2.0 but they're working on a cure instead of working on capitalism

-Rick should have been killed off at the end of the bridge arc. It was hilariously ridiculous how they wrote it. "All of a sudden Rick dies, but then he doesn't, and the magical plot helicopter takes him away" obviously I'm oversimplifying it quite a bit, but yeah, we've been waiting years for a continuation of his story when I just don't think it will be worth it in the long run. You could tell they wrote his final episode like that PRAYING that Andy would return to the series.

-Maggie's story should have concluded in the finale, she finally has a safe place with her son, and has sort of made peace with Negan's presence in the community. We don't need more of her, her story is done.

-Lance should have stayed the main villain in season 11C, after Daryl&Carol break him out, he should have separated from Carol permanently in the tunnel, and make his way back to the CW. where he would have some of his still-loyal goons arrest Pamela so he could take over. I would also have him die in the finale. And Pamela would be freed, and then locked up again because...

-Daryl should have also died in the finale. My pitch being, after Lance is taken out they free Pamela and inform her that she's no longer in charge, she pretends to take the news with dignity, only later that night, she breaks into Daryl's apartment and kills him with his own crossbow. In season 5 we see Daryl having the hardest time adjusting to normalcy, and again in season 11 with the CW. Daryl could never truly fit into the CW, it makes for a more impactful finale imo. Obviously they find zombified Daryl and Carol puts him down. And Pam is arrested (Again)

These are just my shit takes that nobody wants to hear, but hear them, you will.
