That was thanks to some quick thinking and fantastic aim by RPG-packing comrade-in-arms Daryl Dixon. Credit: Gene Page/AMC So now that theyre alive and almost everyone (R.I.P. What the hell is that dude thinking? We asked the man who plays him, Michael Cudlitz, exactly that. Heres what Cudlitz had to say about the big midseason premiere and Abrahams future with Rosita and/or Sasha....

He arrived like a soldier and died like one as well. Abraham Ford was Negans first victim on the season 7 premiere ofThe Walking Dead. Here are some highlights from the chat. Credit: Gene Page/AMC He gets to terrorize every single person while terrorizing Andy and he gets to gauge each person. I think it was very important for him to figure out our group.

Lucille, the baseball bat? Im not going to say its an issue because theyre working on it. He uses some colorful language. Credit: Charlie Adlard/Skybound/Image Comics AndIuse some colorful language. And reading the comic, its important. So well see where that lands. Its our intention that this character is going to leap off the pages of the comic book. Its very important that thats who it is. So what exactly does pushing AMC mean?...

But they seem to be good sports about it. And then we let the whole group get their aggressions out on its on-screen tormentor by returning the favor.

He and I have a very special episode, the two of us, says Reedus. That comes back up....

[SPOILER ALERT: Read on only if you have already watched Sundays East episode ofThe Walking Dead.] But things did not end there. Right as Daryl began to turn, Dwight shot him before the screen cut to black. Credit: Gene Page/AMC And make no mistake, that was Daryl who was shot. Thats Daryls blood that you see, confirms Norman Reedus, who plays Daryl. Thats exactly what happens, exactly what you see....

Everyone (outside of Father Gabriel) onThe Walking Deadhas had their fair share of zombie kills. But Daryl Dixons always seem to have an extra flair about them. Maybe its the crossbow he has used to pierce so many walker skulls. Credit: Frank Ockenfels 3/AMC And they were both from season 5. My favorite walker kill ever, ever, ever? Theres been a bunch. I really liked the chain and taking off the three zombie heads with the chain....

Be on the lookout for the #TWDscoops hashtag on Twitter and Instagram, and follow@DaltonRossfor more.

Norman Reedus loves his job. And there is a lot to love. And he gets to do it all on the highest-rated show on television,The Walking Dead. Credit: Gene Page/AMC But some days are better than others.

Because that was just a really fun, funny day....

And then things got even worse. Daryl was taken captive by a trio on the run who had mistaken him as a foe. He managed to escape, only to later return the insulin he found in a duffel bag. Credit: Gene Page/AMC We spoke to star Norman Reedus to get his take on the big episode. What made Daryl return the insulin yet insist on a trade? What about that Daryl-Carol Easter egg on one of the zombies?...

With apologies to the Incredible Hulk, you wouldnt like Daryl Dixon when hes angry. Credit: Gene Page/AMC And according to the man who plays him, that is exactly what we are about to see. We spoke with the actor about that and what else to expect in the second half of season 6....

And you thought things were bleak before onThe Walking Dead. ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: I know were going to see the continuation of that cliffhanger scene with Negan. NORMAN REEDUS:It was exhausting, and it was no fun. Credit: Gene Page/AMC But this was one of those where its like, Oh, f. Here we go. It was definitely not a joyous reunion. So I guess the next question then becomes: What are you guys delivering with episode 701?...
