The Walking Dead season 7 premiere has aired, and it was painful. The brutal deaths of not one but two beloved characters were very difficult, very graphic, and it was a painful hour for fans of the show. Yes, Abraham and Glenn are gone now, Negan has arrived in full force, and Rick seems to be just completely broken.
We were watching with you live on Facebook, and you saw our reactions. Twitter was alive as the #TWD and #TheWalkingDead hashtags lit up – it’s the top trending topic, and that’s not likely to change for the next few hours. Here are some of the thoughts you, the fans had when you saw these two kills happen.
So…which psychiatric break is this for Rick. 3rd? 4th? #TheWalkingDead #DemDeadz

Then, the first death hit: Abraham. Many people were upset, but some thought it was a bit of a bait and switch.
I thought it was supposed to be a major character. I waited all these months to find out it was the ginger?!! #TheWalkingDead pic.twitter.com/qgdj7YVZKU

And then… Daryl lashed out, and that meant it was time for another example to be made.
NO EXCEPTIONS #TheWalkingDead

Yeah, that’s pretty much the perfect gif, isn’t it? many people tweeted that particular gif out, crying right there along with Glenn. But hey, Negan is definitely 100% a villain we can all be terrified of.
