If you're still struggling with the fact that you've got to wait until October to find out who was on the receiving end of Negan's fatal beat down in the season six finale of The Walking Dead, you're not alone. The man himself, Jeffrey Dean Morgan, sympathizes with you.
Taking part in a conference call with reporters the morning after his big debut, Morgan shared his thoughts on the episode's lack of resolution. "I didn't know it was going to be a cliffhanger until I watched the show. That's just how it's done in my world. I don't know if any of the cast knew exactly how it was going to end, which caused the uncertainty and emotion that was going on," he said. "That said, in talking with [executive producers] Scott [Gimple] and Robert [Kirkman], I think that they're explanation was that it was the end of the story for that season, and that is that Rick has kind of lost control. And then there's Negan. And Negan has all the control. I think that's where they wanted to end the story and it's not about the death of that person…I understand the fans frustration. I get that, that being said...I have to trust these writers and showrunners that they know what they're doing."
