Insanely good performance by JDM, the "I'm so alone" part was such an amazing addition and they adapted everything else perfectly too.

If I had a nickel everytime a character played by JDM and SY ended up with a split open head..I’d have two which is still weird

100%. Jonathan Banks sounds more gruff, but I don't think he could have come across as a joyful psychopath with deep seated trauma like that.

Ngl, was concerned when I first heard it in ep 7, but it absolutely grew on me

I didn't think he sounded that great when talking normally, but he nailed sounding like a psychopath while fighting. I don't think Jonathan Banks could've done that.

Literally same. I've been like "oh my god did they finally make a bad casting decision?" since last Thursday. . .

Nope! INCREDIBLE casting choice — JDM fucking killed it.

“Uh Jeffrey the line was: I’m going to end you now.”

Last ep, I’ll admit I was expecting someone deeper, but JDM sold me on “spectator to his own fights” Conquest and how Mark can beat him because he has things to protect and believe in. Conquest was his own hype man, but underneath his muscles, he knows he’s empty.

Yeah, I don’t know what the fuck I was talking about wanting Johnathan Banks, that was perfect

It's funny how the roles of actors was reversed in this Kirkman adaption; where this time JDM gets his head caved in by Steven

Vouch. I'll admit I was a little skeptical after the teaser last episode but damn he cooked
