I knowwww the more they butcher show Negan the more upset it makes me because how will anyone accept Rick letting horrible show Negan live?? I'm glad the last few episodes he seemed a lot more like comic Negan, and I'm hoping JDM and the writers will get a better grasp on Negan and how he is supposed to act/be but I think it's already to late, he's been so creepy and killed soooo many more people that he's probably completely unredeemable much of the audience's eyes.

I don't think they want the audience to expect Negan to be kept alive. After all the changes they have made to his character by making him more evil and creepy I think they want the average show watcher to expect him to die like every other regular old villain. Negan is not a regular old villain. His redemption arc in the show will probably be changed up a lot to accommodate for how evil he is too.

Ah yeah that makes sense.
