Why The Walking Dead Season 5 Was the Bleakest So Far

On top of all the external threats the group may face, there are also a lot of bad eggs in Alexandria. There's Aiden Monroe, who takes the group on reckless outings and dies because of it; there's Pete, who abuses his wife and son; there's Nicholas, who seems hell-bent on killing Glenn for some reason; and even Deanna, the leader, doesn't sit quite right with us. Unless they change, they could be putting the group in even more danger.
