10x22 Here's Negan

This episode was certainly worth doing but it should have happened ages back. It was a well composed origin story for Negan, even if the leap from losing his wife to the caricature he was when he first appeared as a proverbial mustache-twirling super villain is still a little bit of a stretch.

The character needed this episode a good couple of seasons back to give him that much needed depth, so it's odd the show waited until the 11th hour to do it. Still, it's certainly a positive entry after the pointless filler episode that was last week. This may not have moved the story forward that much but it definitely felt a necessary addition to the show.
