I kinda liked it.
I mean, relative to what the show's been like lately, and going into it figuring that it would end in a cliffhanger, I thought it was entertaining.
And really, even if they showed who was "it" right before he swung it, wouldn't you just be worried that they'd pull another Glen and the victim wouldn't be dead at the beginning of next season? I mean, Negan didn't really ever say he was going to kill someone, did he? I think he only said he was going to beat them?
Big fan of the Negan actor, and loved the line about Rick killing his guys he sent after him for killing his guys. It's going to be interesting watching him in the last few episodes of the Good Wife (assuming he's still in them), with Negan on my mind when I see him.
