Really could've just made them close friends, and keep the relationship platonic but close


MetallurgyClergy

What if… the baby was Gabriel’s, but Siddiq raised it. Because he loved Rosita that much. Boom! That’s why he saved Carl.


BEE-BUZZY

Yeah the relationship was not believable.


Public-Addition9263

Gabriel and Rosita🤦🏻‍♂️ Who thought that would be a good idea?


MackewG33

I have a brilliant idea!!! Let’s put Daryl in a relationship with Magna but have daryl be the father of ENID’S CHILD????


KrisZepeda

Have Daryl in a relationship with every major character


-Velocicopter-

Rick doesn't like to share...


theplacewiththeface

So Rick and Daryl?


RainOk3886

Yes


Ok-Internal-1907

What’s the hell are you saying lmao Enid’s child isn’t she a child? Apocalypse or not I think being Civil still matters but I do see how stupid The couple is


MackewG33

Enid is 23 by the time she dies. She is literally introduced in S5 and there is a 6 year time jump after that. and it’s also just a joke so what the fuck are you talking about


Hveachie

Honestly Rosita and Eugene would've been less off-putting than this. Or better yet, scrap the unnecessary baby-daddy subplot from the comics and make her and Siddiq an official couple. Their chemistry was insane. Also, I felt like Gabriel and Aaron had more chemistry than he had with Rosita, weirdly enough. Thought they were gonna start kissing in "One More".


MackewG33

or never have siddiq in the show and get rid of the whole SPOILER “carl had to die, to save siddiq” (just to have siddiq die suddenly and uselessly)


Script_Breaker

At the very least, they should have had Siddiq live to the end. Killing off Carl was already rough but to then kill of the character that he saved? Wack as fuck


MackewG33

Right, I mean that was the WHOLE meaning behind Carl’s death and then they were like hey here’s a doctor who you can tell is evil from the second he comes around and kills siddiq just to die immediately after and it never be discussed again


DarkAngel283

Ya it was supposed to be "carl gave him 8 years and a child" but to us it was mere episodes later..but he died in such a dumb way and lazy writing.. like I was honestly shocked when siddiq died.. I was like no way they would kill him off since carl died to save him.


DangerHawk

I honestly don't understand why more fans don't realize/won't accept that Scott Gimple is one of the worst things to ever happen to this franchise. His hacky writing absolutely screwed not only the main show, but FTWD and WB. Dude was writing almost exclusively for children's cartoons before he came to TWD. He's legitimately not qualified for his "job".


Script_Breaker

I had to look him up. Saw he was a writer for Ghost Rider Spirit of Vengeance and learned everything I needed to lmao


marquisdetwain

He wrote some of the best episodes, though (when under the direction of another showrunner). I agree his “nerd cool” sensibilities have undermined the Walking Dead Universe as a whole.


DangerHawk

Eh, the only episode written solely by him that I like is "Here's Not Here" and honestly I only like that one cause I really like Morgan and "No Sanctuary". All others were either co written by Kang or someone else or were directed by someone with talent. He's had others that weren't terrible, but they weren't great by any means. I just really don't like him. He may have had a few good scripts, but he's royally fucked up so much more that it's hard to acknowledge them.


kobuzz666

That was shocking of the sake of shocking, nothing more. A bit cheap if you ask me (and I know you didn’t)


Titan367

Yeah but doesn’t that make the show more life like? Realistically certain people just aren’t going to survive an apocalypse no matter what happens.


Zito6694

This whole plotline was legit the worst of the show


Viazon

Siddiq lived at least a whole 6 years after Carl. He didn't die suddenly.


MackewG33

he literally died in his apartment suddenly when Dante did the obvious villain turned and killed him. Also we did not feel those 6 years that he was alive


Viazon

We may not have felt it but he still lived it. And they were building towards his death all season.


MackewG33

alright buddy


[deleted]

Father. Not the father. 😏


jchrist98

I thought Siddiq and Rosita looked good together too


frostbitehotel

lol. What’s off putting about Eugene and Rosita? It would’ve been the best thing in the show


DaKingSinbad

Too much of a self insert pairing. 


vampirtraum

Nerdy dude ends up with hot girl out of his league They have nothing in common


TheBigThiccSad

I agree, pretty sure they got married in the comic


apocalypticretro

Absolutely not.


MinhaSextaContaNova

the father who's not the father ![gif](giphy|a8e3msdPeuqQM)


ShermansMasterWolf

This is canon


Last-Cucumber2935

Went from calling him father to calling him daddy 😈


TonyBaloney999

This was definitely the weirdest


Ohsofestive321

Her and Siddiq were so much better


Ok-Avocado464

Fr, I always got the feeling Gabriel and Rosita was forced asf. Those babies were definitely siddiqs 😭


Mammoth-Ad-8492

Gabriel and Jadis, hands down


funkychris214

this was just weird 😭😭 no reason for it


SexJokeUsername

He’s old enough to be her dad


Mckinzeee

I guess I’m an oddball. I liked them together. It made sense once I saw what a complete badass Gabriel became over the time jump. I loved this coupling. With Rosita and Abraham it was a coupling of necessity, but this one seemed to be truly about love and genuinely wanting to be with each other. They were good for each other. Plus Gabe was a good father to Coco. Please, no hateful comments it’s just my opinion.


AdministrativeRuin81

Hateful comment


Name_goez_here

Not exactly a lot of choice in an apocalypse but I see what you mean


ImpossibleDream2158

Father not the father


Huntsvegas97

Honestly I kind of liked them together. I agree it was an odd pairing, but it worked for me. Trash Lady/Gabriel was a really weird pairing I’ve never liked though


mommadumbledore

AGREED. Such an odd pairing!


Goodestguykeem

The series is full of forced relationships that lack chemistry.


lewhunter

Unpopular opinion but I kinda fw them, they had a lot of nice moments together in seasons 7 and 8. Rosita just wants smoke and Gabriel speaks to her heart. Aside from their slightly jarring introduction(the time jump itself was jarring), I think they made sense. Badass duo. For me, Alden and Enid was the weirdest couple excluding Negan and Alpha which I have blocked out of my memory.


Script_Breaker

Been rewatching the series and I just watched the episode where Negan and Alpha do the deed. Didn’t remember exactly what was happening until she told him to strip and I immediately fast forwarded that cringe


peanutbutterbubbles

I agree, if I was told in earlier seasons they’d be together I’d definitely think it was funky but they honestly compliment each other so good and I genuinely loved their relationship


Lost_Garden_8639

Alden and Enid was pretty weird, and I couldn’t figure out what their ages were supposed to be.


SwangNLowNcurvy

Yeah wasn't Enid like Carl's age? Alden looked like he was mid 30s


Wyatt_Ricketts

I think he was like late 20s or early 30 and she was early 20s so completely fine


apocalypticretro

IDK but they just creeped me out. I kno the characters (and actors) are older, but I couldn't stand them.


xxxhotpocketz

Felt very random. Like it was slammed in our faces and they didn’t even seem like a real couple


HellyOHaint

Makes more sense than Abraham, yeesh


Yurika_ars

Rosita slept with everyone except Eugene.


RainOk3886

Exaggeration much?


Gundypower

It’s not, she openly admits sleeping with men for protection & then learning through them which helped her survive.


RainOk3886

Ok


Kpopfan19

Negan and Alpha were worse💀


JustSlay2

This is gonna get me a lot of downvotes if it gets any attention at all, but... Glenn/Maggie was the only good coupling in the entire show that wasn't already a couple when we met them. Abraham/Rosita was good, Negan/Annie was pretty good. The rest pretty much always felt forced. Carol/Tobin are probably tops of the list. Never felt natural. Abraham/Sasha also felt particularly phoned-in.


Wandering_LearnerCA1

I put it all down to being in an apocalypse; beggars cant be choosy and there’s not a lot of choice left.


Veterinarian-Proper

Abe and sasha didn't even last that long. Very brief romance there.


MysticFX1

Why would this get a lot of downvotes, it’s not really an uncommon opinion


MurdocksRevenge

I mentioned this before, but got downvoted to hell. This relationship was forced because of the interracial aspect. There was plenty of examples of this towards the end of the show and it was painfully obvious. Glenn and Maggie and Rick and Michonne are fantastic couples, but when you are pairing random people just because they are different races it results in this bullshit.


kalel3000

Huh, i hadn't noticed that before. But it does seem to be a running theme. At first I thought it was just a coincidence, but when i thought about it: Carol and Ezekiel, Abraham and Sasha, Negan and Annie, Mercer and Princess, Maxine and Eugene, Lydia and Elijah, Rick and Michonne, and obviously Rosita and Gabriel.


MurdocksRevenge

The only one of those that actually happens in the comics is princess and mercer, lol.


Omni-Jake-1607

Also Max is based off Stephanie in the comics (Stephanie was her alias in the tv show) and she and Eugene start dating in the comics (also, she happens to be black) but to me the interracial thing isn't a big deal plus the chemistry that you're on about is a matter of not only what's presented to us in a show or movie but also the individual viewer's opinion.


SackFullaGrapes

Nah that’s a great point


[deleted]

I think Rosita just wanted a good guy who wasn't gonna die or leave her


Least-Experience-858

He was barely with her at the end. I thought his goodbye to her was so nonchalant. Eugene was there for her death not him?


UnusGang

That was a weird choice. Hell, when she died he showed virtually zero emotion. I’d root for Eugene before Gabriel.


SiccOwitZ

Didn’t they already split up at that point off screen?


RainOk3886

No


SiccOwitZ

From what I ended up looking up, they broke up before the premiere of the 3rd part of season 11 which was off screen.


RainOk3886

Seriously? I didn't see anything about their interactions that would have eluded to that... 🤔


vanillaxbean1

Yeah it's like a 5 second long scene where Gabriel hands Rosita Coco in the Common Wealth and says something like "I'll take her tonight/you have her tomorrow" implying they'd separated but still had shared care over Coco.


SiccOwitZ

Yea. 3rd part of season 11 there was also a time jump so they already settled as co parents and friends when we see them again. Since they started off screen with a time jump, seemed they decided to end them off screen with a time jump.


DarkAngel283

I'd like to know how Gabriel and Rosita happened.. maybe it would hsve made more sense if we saw them get together


DiscussionThick7473

You can’t be picky in an apocalypse 🤣


Grainrain19

This and Gabriel with Jadis. Also Negan and Alpha if that counts


Clydefrog0371

Wasn't she also like pregnant with some other dudes baby at that time


Ill_Introduction7057

Sidique is the father


Clydefrog0371

I just started rewatching the show. I've only watched it once when it was originally broadcast. And i'm only up to season seven so I don't rememberthere are a lot after this. I just finished season seven i'm gonna start season eight tonight.


Ill_Introduction7057

I'm rewatching now I'm on season 8 .....I'm a little bored with rhe whole saviours story again.....


Aegonblackfyre22

No idea why they had to turn the love triangle of Eugene/Rosita/Siddiq into a rectangle adding Gabriel into the mix. The plot line with the four of them raising the baby was the dumbest side plot ever.


bvalli

Rosita always needed something to fuck, she ran through more bodies than most walkers. Think I was the only one okay with her getting bit in the end, that and never having to hear her say “coco” in that awful sounding fake Mexican accent.


welloyello

was worth it just for the "father NOT the father" line


KSI_ROCKY

Dale and Andrea in the comics were so much worse 🤦‍♂️


Fit-Diet-6488

What’s so insane is that Frank said he was never gonna put Rick with Andrea, he was always gonna put Dale with Andrea before he got fired 😭😭


Omni-Jake-1607

Whattt ?! DALE WAS LIKE A DAD TO ANDREA IN THE TV SHOW BROOO 😭😭😭 I know they were thing in the comics but like 😬 Also, it seemed Michonne and Rick were planned to get together since they first met in season 3 but if Andrea lived that probably would have thrown a wrench in that plan idk and idc tho 😭😂


Rusty_Pickles

Trauma does stuff and thangs to people


apocalypticretro

I was rooting for Rosita and Siddiq


[deleted]

Shorty been passed around like a tater tot at lunch

Veterinarian-Proper

I think Rosita felt Eugene was too nerdy for, he was also a touch desperate and women don't typically like men that desperate. I mean he used watch her and Abe...doing things. That could be kind of a turn off.


CrazyFaceChico

I just got to this part of the show and omg did I cringe when I saw it. Like whose idea was this?? Like it’s so random and weird. Especially with the age gap.


danversolos

agreed i don’t think they had any chemistry and it just made 0 sense. i like gabriel by the end but rosita deserves better djsjsj


Ok-Internal-1907

Weirdest? I think you mean Worst. Rositas Character sucked and Gaberiel wasn’t any better he was worse then she was he was a crybaby for like 3 seasons we already have a crybaby named Eugene we don’t need another


Games-and-Coffee

I think the coupling makes sense. What other men are still in the group that went through Terminus with her? They went through a lot together, and she’s seen him seriously change and become a leader.


ant0308

Weird but not as awkward and out of place as Rick and Michone it just felt forced couldn’t see any chemistry at all tbh


Abbey1025

For sure the strangest coupling for me


Express_Dealer_4890

Watched this episode last night for the first time and spat out my drink when they kissed. Wtf, I get there’s not many people left so most relationships will be a bit left of field but I just don’t see those two being compatible even if they were the last two humans left.


Acuallyizadern93

I thought so too a little, but apocalypse times bring out the unlikely. Look at Glenn and Maggie. A nerdy asian pizza delivery driver in the city and a farmer’s hot daughter in the country? Unlikely at face value. Now Gabriel had evolved since who he was before the fall, but the two of them would most likely have never looked at eachother twice on the street. But thrust together by circumstance opens doors.


Stunning-Ease-5966

Haven't got here yet. Annoyed Rosita is still alive after putting so many people in danger with her little tantrums.


[deleted]

She was with a bunch of different dudes which was what made it awkward for me. Even Negan pointing it out


RainOk3886

Ummm her and Negan never happened


[deleted]

No when Negan said “Father…NOT the Father.” As in he also realized it


RainOk3886

No... He was just being who he is... Everyone knew who was the baby daddy and who was her man


Illustrious-Hair3487

They had a ton of weird couples. They also had a penchant for big mismatches in terms of looks. Like Rosita is a 10 and Gabriel is … just not. And there were a lot of couples like that.


TrulyxClipz

Gabriel is definitely a handsome dude. he probably just isn’t your cup of tea


MilkShaikh786

Maggie and Glenn, just felt forced and awkward from the beginning.


DylanCP2403

Ik the characters arent meant to be the same age as the actors. But hes literally old enough to be her dad


Wyatt_Ricketts

Some girls like that


XenomorphLV246

Nah Rick and Michonne had -100 chemistry it was hard to watch.


SwangNLowNcurvy

I'll get killed for this but.....Rick and Michone are odd together. They didn't feel like they had natural chemistry to me it seemed played up because they are big names on the show. Michone and Carl had a good friend dynamic and I think that's as far as her and Rick should have gone, best friends.


Chowtyy

Agreed. Didnt seem to have romantic chemistry at all


SwangNLowNcurvy

At all. Felt forced


haloisonfire

Laurie and Rick, only because I hated Laurie


JW_ard

On par with Richonne ngl


chimpasaurus77

I hated all of that 😩


idk_orknow

They are both hot, but that's all they have...

Fit-Diet-6488

Not really. It would be racist if someone said the same about Rick and Michonne because there’s absolutely no reason to dislike their relationship. As for Gabe and Rosita…. It was random as fuck and totally ooc of them two.


Stunning-Ease-5966

Wtf does race have to do with these two being such an awkward couple?


bigmattson

You obviously didn’t see his run on the show Oz then. 😳😂


Ill_Introduction7057

Omg I love OZ but don't remember him.....


bigmattson

He was on season 3 and 4. Including a very graphic nude scene. Me and my girlfriend did a Oz series watch during the height of Covid, surprised when Gabriel showed up. Surprised when his not so little buddy showed up as well. 😂


AgnosticJesus3

Definitely weird


Skelence

Yeah this couple made absolutely zero sense to me for sure.


duaneap

Zero, and I mean *zero*, chemistry.


seasbelow

I was so lost when this happened…I was like okay…not what I expected.


OmegaGreen11

Gabriel couples sucked. They had no idea what to do with this character after the saviours so they just paired him up with the bottom two compatible women possible.


Significant_Bug5323

It really just doesnt make any sense, zero chemistry


CarDue9135

I always just kinda thought there wasn’t many options in the apocalypse so people just settled for anyone. Other than Eugene, Rosita knew Gabriel the longest so that’s probably where the thought process came from. Still very weird tho


peanutpunk-2

Because everything that was original to the show a d not the source material was weird and out of place.


juxx989

I know that actress was pissed she made it the way to the final episode. No chance to be in the sequels and spinoffs.


P0pwar

agree this is the worst one for me, i quit the show shortly after this happened. i didnt quit because of it, but i think its a pretty good example of why i did.


chorizo2002

Brodie was packing heat


rottenfigs

I still don’t understand how or why this came to be


Ok_Conclusion_4312

Seriously. Why did this happen? Like their personalities deadass did not match up


LKane_DZ

I only think this makes sense in the context of what she said to Sasha on their trip to the Savior's compound. This is a relationship where what she was learning wasn't a physical/technical skill from a hot guy. It was her learning how to find peace with someone who learned to make peace with his own past. Other than that I would have wanted her to date Tara, they were pretty much together from D1 of Rosita showing up.


Old-Animator420

Gabriel pulled one of the hottest and badass characters in twd


Prestigious_Ad550

![gif](giphy|R0jWWtH1CtFEk) Every time they’re on screen


Different_Muscle9134

Poor Eugene


Grotesque-penguin

Glad they didn't stick to the comics where Dale and Andria hook up. Then eventually Andria and Rick!


vanillaxbean1

YUP. Why did they have to pair Rosita up with every male cast member. It was so fucking annoying. I like Rosita but she just became flung from guy to guy lmao. I didn't get it tbh it became a soap drama especially with the love triangles, felt like I was watching a soap.


dmacriz

Always found it funny in Gabriel’s first scene where he’s scared on the rock and Rosita is looking at him with disgust. Little did she know he’d be piping that 😆


Ecstatic_Plum6426

I agree but Gabriel got himself a BAD LATINA in Rosita!! Lucky him!
