TWD seems to cycle through a pattern:
Major zombie episodes, relative calm/character development, scavenging/adventure, living people problems ... repeat.
Personally, I tire of the heavy zombie, hack and slash episodes. I thought last episode's "deal" to take out Negan for supplies was an odd turn. The group turns overtly mercenary but justifies it as "them or us eventually." This season will culminate in a showdown. Rick's group will prevail against Negan (of course) but there will be losses (including a major character). I think losses will include Abraham, as they are now pumping up his emotional/love life side for affect.
