Warning: There are spoilers ahead for season nine, episode six of "The Walking Dead."

Now that Rick Grimes has departed "The Walking Dead," the show has introduced its next big threat.

This is your last chance to head back before spoilers. 

The end of Sunday's episode showed Rosita and Eugene flocked a giant herd of the undead. They hide down in a pit, cover themselves with mud and wait for them to pass. 

The two then hear unmistakeable voices among the undead calling out to each other. 

Three clear, grumbling lines are heard:

"Where are they?"
"They must be close."
"Don't let them get away."

For most, a lot of this scene wasn't too surprising. A lot of this footage was teased in a trailer for the final three episodes of this first half season after Rick's final episode. 

The scene was also teased during the first season nine trailer, but it was very tough to make out the language. I've seen the moment a few times now, and it looks like AMC has dialed up the volume so you can make out that the undead are speaking much more clearly. 

What's going on?

When fans initially saw the scene in last week's teaser, many were immediately stunned.

Others were a little confused and thought the show was jumping the shark.

Are the undead talking now?

Nope. That's not it. 

Then what's going on?

Those who have read Robert Kirkman's comic series know this is the introduction of the next big villains, The Whisperers.

They're a group of survivors who travel among large groups of the undead. They wear the skin of walkers to blend into giant hordes and use them for safety. They were introduced in issue No. 130 of the comic series in 2014.

Their introduction came as a complete surprise because a character thinks he hears the zombies talking, only for it later to be revealed to be a living person in a zombie skin. They're led by characters who refer to themselves as Alpha and Beta. The group shows what happens when you don't try to rebuild civilization and instead devolve into your natural animal instincts.

During 2018's San Diego Comic-Con panel in July, Robert Kirkman confirmed Samantha Morton will play the group's leader, Alpha. "Sons of Anarchy" actor, Ryan Hurst, will play the group's second-in-command, Beta.

You can follow along with our "Walking Dead" coverage here.

Note: This story has been updated to reflect the introduction of the Whisperers on the show.

Warning: There are spoilers ahead for season nine, episode six of "The Walking Dead,""Who Are You Now?"

Sunday's episode of "The Walking Dead" marked the beginning of a new era without Rick Grimes, and there was a lot to be excited about. 

We're six years into the future and most of the main cast is rocking new looks, Carol showed why she's still a Queen when she channeled her season five self on a group of Saviors, and there's a Richonne baby!

From references to the comics and a necklace around Michonne's neck to a Shane nod that was easy to miss the first time around, keep reading to see what you may have missed on this week's "The Walking Dead."

Six years have passed since Rick disappeared on last week's episode of "The Walking Dead."

It's never made clear on last week's episode of "TWD" or Sunday's episode, but showrunner Angela Kang confirmed to INSIDER it is a six-year time jump that we see at the end of Rick's final episode.

"She's [Judith] about four, four-and-a-half when we start the season and then we jump to her being 10 years old, much like Carl was in the comic book and when he started on the show," Kang told INSIDER.

You can read more on what Kang had to say about the time skip and some flashbacks we'll eventually see on the show here.

Carol wakes up to a phrase on the wall of the Kingdom.

It says, "At times we crack only to let the light in." That's a phrase King Ezekiel came up with that is on the wall at the Kingdom. 

He wrote a bunch of phrases like that on walls at his community. When Carol first comes to The Kingdom on season seven, episode two, Morgan wheels her by a wall with the phrase, "Hope is the North star, let it guide you" on her way to meet the king.

Michonne is wearing a new necklace with a ring around it.

You may have noticed Michonne has swapped her regular gold chain with a larger silver one that has a ring around it. The gold letter "M" is still there, too.

The obvious thought is that Michonne is wearing Rick's ring around her neck, and it just might be his. It's tough to believe that Rick wasn't wearing his wedding ring — the one he always wears when he departed on the plane with Anne.

INSIDER went back through high-res photos from season nine, episode five and it looks like Rick was missing it. It looks like he may have conveniently left it behind at Alexandria before heading out.

NOW WATCH: 4 lottery winners who lost it all

There’s so much TV to choose from that it’s really easy to get stuck on what to start watching.

But we're here to make your streaming dreams come true by choosing what to watch for you. Every week, we put together a list of three great shows you should watch.

Here, you’ll find shows you can finish in a day, and some you can at least get started on. We mix shows that have recently come onto the service with some old favorites you might have missed.

From a new season of "The Great British Baking Show" to The CW's underrated royal drama "Reign," here are three great TV shows you can binge-watch on Netflix this week:

"The Great British Baking Show"

Seasons: 6

Episodes: 60

Since there’s a new slew of episodes coming to Netflix Friday, its a good time to revisit “The Great British Baking Show” or to catch up on the calming competition series as everyone is talking about it again. This feel-good reality show will make you realize you don’t actually know what baking is, and you’ll never feel more emotion than when a contestant throws out their Baked Alaska.

"Reign"

Seasons: 4

Episodes: 78

"Reign" isn't usually historically accurate, but it is a good, easy and dramatic binge well-suited for people who love historical content. The first season is a bit of a drag, but by the end of its run on The CW in 2017, it had gained momentum, burning through plots at a rapid pace that make it worth watching. 

"Bodyguard"

Seasons: 1

Episodes: 6

Netflix description: After helping thwart a terrorist attack, a war veteran is assigned to protect a politician who was a major proponent of the conflict he fought in.

We recommended this fast-paced British series starring Richard Madden (Robb Stark from "Game of Thrones") a few weeks ago, but we're telling you again, because it's so good. The show excels at surprising viewers, and will leave you on the edge of your seat. What it lacks in thoughtful character development, it makes up for in intense action sequences and an engrossing, though far-fetched plot.

The biggest food holiday of the year is nearly upon us!

With just a handful of days to go until Thanksgiving, I've been observing my annual tradition of marathon-watching cooking shows as inspiration. Unlike years past where I might've tuned in to the Food Network or some such, these days all the best cooking shows are online. 

Whether you're Binging with Bab ish, watching Matty Matheson scream around a kitchen, or going traditional with Julia Child, there are plenty of great options on YouTube right now to get you ready for the big day.

These are the best of what's available:

1. Food Wishes

Chef John's Food Wishes is my personal favorite YouTube channel about cooking. Not only does he have years of experience, but he's a hilariously quirky man. 

Moreover, Chef John's been doing the YouTube thing longer than most in the game — his videos go back 10 years! Before that, he was doing the actual chef thing as John Mitzewich, working in kitchens for years and eventually teaching at the California Culinary Academy in San Francisco. 

His videos range from simple to complex, American comfort food to ancient Roman throwbacks. And yes, of course, he has a ton of Thanksgiving recipe ideas and techniques for you to gobble down.

Here's a direct link to Chef John's Thanksgiving side dishes playlist.

And here's Chef John's main turkey video, aimed directly at first-time turkey roasters:

2. Matty Matheson (and Munchies in general)

Matty Matheson is abrasive and loud and he swears a lot, which is exactly what makes him so delightful. He's the punk rock chef the internet needs. 

Maybe you've seen him on his excellent, often ridiculous show, "Keep It Canada." Or maybe you've seen him on his newer show, "Dead Set On Life." Before he was doing any of that stuff, he was making excellent how-to videos for Vice's food publication, Munchies. 

Matty was a working chef for years before he became a food star on YouTube (and now, on TV, with Viceland). He brings years of professional experience to his lessons, and his presentation is unlike anyone else before him. 

Check out his how-to videos on Munchies right here.

• "X-Men" star Hugh Jackman shared a memory of "creative genius" Stan Lee, who died Monday at the age of 95, while on CBS' "The Late Show With Stephen Colbert" Monday night. 
• Jackman said he was on a red carpet at Comic-Con one year and expected some excitement because he was Wolverine, but he was shown up by Lee.
• "I was the only one on there, and no one was taking my photo because at the other end was Stan Lee, and there was about 300 photographers and interviewers just all on Stan," he said.

NOW WATCH: 7 places you can't find on Google Maps

It's been seven years since producer Mona Scott-Young introduced the world to the "Love & Hip Hop" franchise and though it may not feel like it, a lot of the cast has come and gone.

Airing with the original cast in 2011, the then-four member cast show chronicled the lives of two hip-hop girlfriends, one singer, and one rapper. Since then, the show and cast has gotten much bigger.

Here's where some of the show's most memorable stars are now. 

Jim Jones was one of the founding cast members.

If you were one of the many who started watching the franchise in season one, then you'll remember that Dipset rapper Jim Jones was a member of the founding cast.

He and then-girlfriend turned fiancé Chrissy Lampkin appeared on the first two seasons showcasing their personal lives, the development of his clothing line, and the ins and outs of his rap career.

Jim Jones has been on television a few more times.

Since his time on the show ended, he and Lampkin appeared in their own VH1 spin-off, "Chrissy & Mr. Jones" for two seasons. 

In 2016, he and Lampkin appeared in another reality show titled "Jim & Chrissy: Vow or Never" that aired on WeTV.

In early 2018, the couple also appeared on another WeTV franchise: "Marriage Boot Camp Reality Stars." Currently, TMZ  reports he is facing five felony charges after being arrested in June in Georgia.

Chrissy Lampkin had some memorable antics.

Though not much was known of the reality star in 2011, it wasn't long before she made a name for herself through her unforgettable antics on the show.

From countless fights and arguments (remember that brawl that ensued between her to Kimbella?) to her proposing to Jim Jones on national TV, Chrissy Lampkin might be one of the most missed characters from the franchise.

New titles come and go on Netflix every week, but choosing what to stream can be difficult.

INSIDER has rounded up the newly arrived movies and TV shows on Netflix are actually worth watching.

This week's titles include Netflix's new "Narcos" series and Christmas movie "The Princess Switch." 

New movies and TV shows coming this week:

"Narcos: Mexico" (TV show — coming Friday, November 16):"Narcos" returns with a new cast and setting. The series moves to 1980s Mexico and documents the rise of the Guadalajara Cartel. Diego Luna and Michael Peña star. 

"The Ballad of Buster Scruggs" (Movie — coming Friday, November 16): Directors Joel and Ethan Coen are at the helm of this Western anthology movie that covers six different chapters. Tim Blake Nelson, Liam Neeson, James Franco, and Zoe Kazan are among the cast. 

"The Princess Switch"— (Movie — coming Friday, November 16): Vanessa Hudgens plays two different women who look the same in this Christmas take on "The Parent Trap." Stacy, a commoner from Chicago, switches places with Margaret, the Duchess of Montenaro. Sam Palladio and Nick Sagar also star. 

"The Pixar Story"— (Movie — coming Sunday, November 18): This documentary tells the history of Pixar Animation Studios and features interviews with creators like George Lucas and actors including Tom Hanks and Billy Crystal. With new teasers for "Toy Story 4" being released, it's a good week to reflect on the past.

NOW WATCH: 4 lottery winners who lost it all

• On the last episode of “Keeping Up With The Kardashians,” the Kardashian family found out about the video that claims to show Tristan Thompson making out with another woman days before Khloe Kardashian went into labor.
• In a new clip from Sunday’s upcoming episode, Kim Kardashian faced Tristan for the first time in the delivery room.
• Although it was awkward between them, Kim remained civil.

Fans have been wondering how "Keeping Up With The Kardashians" would handle the reported Tristan Thompson cheating scandal, and now, the show is finally tackling what went down between him and Khloe Kardashian last April. In a new clip from Sunday night’s episode of "KUWTK,"Kim Kardashian reacts to seeing Tristan for the first time after seeing the video. 

On the November 3 episode of "KUWTK," everyone in the family saw the video that surfaced that claims to show Tristan making out with a woman just before Khloe went into labor. Before flying out to Cleveland, Kim, Kourtney, and family friend Malika Haqq made a plan to be polite to Tristan without being too friendly when they saw him. And now, seeing the clip, it seems like Kim stuck with that plan.

In the sneak peek, Khloe is in a hospital room about to give birth, surrounded by her friends, family, and Tristan. When Kim arrived, she greeted everyone in the room with a hug except for Tristan — instead, she made a throat-slitting gesture and stuck her tongue out at him behind his back.

Finally, Khloe said, "are you going to say hi to each other or no?" which led to Kim and Tristan awkwardly engaging in a side hug.

"The vibe in the room is calm. I thought there’d be way more tension," Kim said in her talking head interview. "As much as I want to go off, I just don’t think it’s the time, so I’m gonna keep it cute. I don’t have to have a lot of interaction, I just have to be there for her."

Meanwhile, Khloe was put on oxygen in order to keep the baby’s levels up, and Tristan sat beside her in her hospital bed while the rest of the family hung out (and Kris Jenner danced around the room).

"I’m really excited to have everyone there, but oh my god, I’m getting that much closer to actually giving birth," Khloe said.

"Keeping Up With the Kardashians" airs Sundays at 9 p.m. ET on E!.

NOW WATCH: Valedictorians rarely become rich and famous — here's why the average millionaire's college GPA is 2.9

• Zoë Kravitz appeared on Bravo's "Watch What Happens Live" on Tuesday and recalled a story that British singer Lily Allen shared in her memoir, which was released in September 2018. 
• Allen said that they "went out partying and ended up kissing" in 2014.
• In response, Kravitz said: "If by kissing, she means, like, attacking? Then yes. She kissed me."

British singer Lily Allen said that she kissed Zoë Kravitz years ago, and now the actress is sharing her side of the story. 

Kravitz appeared on Bravo's "Watch What Happens Live" on Tuesday with her "Fantastic Beasts" co-star Eddie Redmayne. After a fan asked Kravitz if she was warned in advance that Allen would discuss the incident in her memoir titled "My Thoughts Exactly," the 29-year-old didn't mince words. 

"Who's Lily Allen?" Kravitz replied. 

When Redmayne chimed in and said that he loves the singer, Kravitz said, "No you don't," and explained that she remembers the 2014 event differently.

Allen's book was released in September 2018. In it, the 33-year-old said that the pair became friends since Kravitz's band, Lolawolf, was an opening act for a few of her shows. Allen went on to say that they "went out partying and ended up kissing."

In response to Allen's claim, Kravitz told host Andy Cohen: "If by kissing, she means, like, attacking? Then yes. She kissed me."

Kravitz added that she thought the kiss was portrayed "like I wanted it," but to her, the action wasn't consensual.

After Cohen asked Kravitz if she read Allen's memoir, Kravitz said: "I don't think anybody read the book."

A representative for Allen told INSIDER that a comment from the singer is forthcoming.

• Casey Cott spoke with INSIDER about "Riverdale's" flashback episode.
• The actor, who plays Kevin Keller, said it's one of his favorite episodes. 
• He said he didn't have "much research to do" to play a young Martin Cummins on the episode. 

"Riverdale" star Casey Cott had a blast filming the show's flashback episode. 

Cott, who normally plays Kevin Keller on the hit CW show, portrayed the teenage version of his character's father, Tom Keller, on the special episode. And Cott says he didn't have to study the actor who plays his father, Martin Cummins, much at all.

"I feel like I'm around him enough that I kind of know how he operates," Cott told INSIDER. "I didn't get to have too many lines in that episode, so I didn't have much research to do...but he's a stud. It was an honor getting to play a young Martin Cummins."

The flashback episode took the "Riverdale" cast back to the '90s as their parents. While most of the cast played their respective parents, some actors were brought in. Michael Consuelos joined the cast as a young Hiram Lodge, who's played by his real father Mark Consuelos, for example.

The young actors were convincing as high school versions of their parents, nailing the mannerisms fans have noticed on screen.

During New York City Comic Con, Luke Perry (who plays Fred Andrews) told INSIDER that he was impressed by how the young actors played the parents, particularly KJ Apa's (Archie Andrews) imitation.

"He can imitate anybody," Perry said. "He's like a cyborg with that s---." 

Cott said that cast couldn't stop laughing on set and had a blast diving into the past. 

"We had so much fun shooting that," he said. "We laughed so hard at so many things. Everyone was amazing but we were just cracking up with KJ playing young Luke, and obviously Lili [Reinhart] is incredible and Ashleigh [Murray] was so fun. That episode was one of my favorites, too."

"Riverdale" airs Wednesday at 8 p.m. ET on The CW.

NOW WATCH: There's so much CO2 in the atmosphere that planting trees can no longer save us

Warning: Spoilers ahead for season three, episode five of "Riverdale," titled "The Great Escape."

The Gargoyle King is terrorizing the residents of "Riverdale," and not even the cast knows who the mysterious creature is.

"I feel like we're almost immune to the insanity at this point, but we never have any idea what's going on," Casey Cott told INSIDER of the show's newest threat.

"At this point, where the viewers are at, it's funky seeing this mystical experience take place," he continued. "The theories are so vast in what it could be. ... I wouldn't say I know exactly who it is, but I think we're getting closer. I can't spill the tea, but it'll come sooner than you think."

Cott, 26, plays Kevin Keller on the hit CW show. Wednesday's episode showed Kevin getting swept up in the dangerous and mysterious game of "Gryphons and Gargoyles." 

"I think the game is sucking in each character in some capacity, whether they are playing it or whether they are involved in some mystery as a byproduct of the game," Cott said. "As we know now, our parents are super involved, and we have some sort of mystery of who is even orchestrating all this stuff. No one really knows what's going on, but it definitely affects Kevin."

On the episode, Betty tells Kevin, Josie, and Reggie about their parent's involvement with the game. After the parents sidestep their questions, the three teens decide to play the game to try and learn what secrets are being kept from them.

But getting involved with "Gryphons and Gargoyles" isn't the only problem Kevin is going to face. According to Cott, Kevin has a "big story coming up." Though Cott wouldn't share any secrets, he did say Kevin's relationship with Moose (Cody Kearsley) will come to a head. 

"Kevin is going to have to eventually challenge Moose and say, 'Listen, what we've got going is great, but I want to be out and together and not be this closeted thing,'" Cott said. "Moose will have to make a decision eventually."

Read more: 'Riverdale' fans finally know what the parents' big secret is and there's a murder involved

Kevin's family life is also changing. On Wednesday's episode, Tom Keller and Sierra McCoy told Kevin and Josie that they are going to get married. 

Cott said he thinks Kevin could use a female influence in his life. 

"As a fan, I think it's kind of cool to have a female figure in Kevin's life," he said. "Right now, other than these young females that he's friends with at school, there's no female figure guiding him through what he's doing, so I think [former] Mayor McCoy will be a perfect addition to Kevin's little family tree."

Not even the cast can anticipate what is going to happen on the show, but Cott promises fans are in for a wild ride. 

"The season gets crazier and crazier and more and more wild, so I'm excited to see how [fans] react to the madness," he said. "It gets a little more weird coming up, and I'm hoping everyone has as much fun as we are." 

"Riverdale" airs Wednesdays at 8 p.m. ET on The CW

NOW WATCH: The first woman in space almost didn't make it back to Earth and she had to keep it a secret for 30 years

In the music industry, the tough road to success typically includes a bit of rejection — and sometimes that rejection comes from singing competition shows. Although some famous singers, like Carrie Underwood and Kelly Clarkson, found success on "American Idol," other talented artists didn't quite make the cut. 

Here are 10 famous musicians who were rejected by "American Idol," but still went on to achieve musical success. 

Colbie Caillat auditioned for "Idol" twice.

The singer tried out for the reality singing competition series twice, even once using her now-hit song, "Bubbly," to audition.

She failed to make it on the show both times but she later returned as a mentor on the ABC reboot in 2018.

"[I] wasn't ready at all. I had such stage fright, and I realized I had a lot of work to do with myself,"she told contestants of her experiencein the episode.

Although "Idol" didn't work out for her, Colbie Caillat has done just fine on her own. She's a two-time Grammy winner who has sold over six million albums worldwide.

Hillary Scott never made it past the show's preliminary rounds.

The country star opened up about her failed "Idol" auditions to Entertainment Weekly, saying, "I actually tried out for 'American Idol' twice and didn't get past the first round, if that gives anyone hope."

She later formed Lady Antebellum with bandmates Charles Kelley and Dave Haywood. Since its 2006 debut, the group has won five Grammys out of 10 nominations.

Bebe Rexha tried out for the show when she was 18.

Like Caillat, Bebe Rexha returned to mentor young "Idol" hopeful several years after failing to make it on the show herself. "Ten years ago my mother and I waited 10 hours on line to audition for 'American Idol,'" shewrote in a tweet in March 2018. "I didn't make it through. This year I'm mentoring!"

The singer went on to find her own success. Her 2017 single featuring Florida Georgia Line, "Meant to Be," sold millions of copies and went four times platinum. In June, Rexha also released her debut album, "Expectations," which has since been certified gold.

NOW WATCH: 4 lottery winners who lost it all

• In a new clip from Sunday's episode of "Keeping Up With The Kardashians," Kris Jenner and Kim Kardashian filled cousin Cici Bussey in on what's going on with Khloe Kardashian and Tristan Thompson.

• Kim revealed that the family had a private talk with Tristan about the reported cheating scandal while they were in Cleveland for True's birth.
• Kim believes that Tristan is only sorry because he got caught, and because of the repercussions that may have on his career.
• Kris said that she felt heartbroken for Khloe, because she wanted to build a family with Tristan rather than just have a baby.

After Khloe Kardashian and her family found the video that claims to be Tristan Thompson making out with another woman on "Keeping Up With The Kardashians" earlier this month, the family was not shy about sharing their thoughts on the situation.

In a new clip from the upcoming Sunday episode of "KUWTK," Kim Kardashian admitted that she thinks Tristan's only sorry he got caught— and that the whole family sat down with him to figure out why he cheated.

In the clip, Kim and Kris are talking to their cousin, Cici Bussey, about how Khloe and Tristan are doing in Cleveland after True was born. Although Kris said that she thought Tristan was "remorseful," Kim had a different take — she said that she told Tristan she thought he was only sorry because he was embarrassed and it affected his job when the family sat down to get everything out in the open with him in private.

"We went back to have this family talk with Tristan. No cameras were there, we really wanted it to be a private talk. But we all expressed exactly how we felt," she told the "KUWTK" cameras. "I think the convo was going OK at the beginning, and then it got heated, and I don't know. It just kind of took a left turn."

Kris then told Tristan that if he wants to live a life where he's available to be with other women, he shouldn't be with Khloe at all, and she even asked him how many other women he'd been with.

"Overall, I think it's definitely necessary to let out how we all felt, and since he's the father of Khloe's baby, I definitely wanted to take the time to hear what he had to say," Kim said.

But what truly broke Kris' heart? She said it was the fact that Khloe was trying to build a life with Tristan before this news completely blindsided her.

"You know, Khloe has been so invested — moved to Cleveland, nested in this house, made it a home, and it's beautiful because you can see the whole place is Khloe," Kris said. "She said something really interesting; she said ‘I didn't have a baby just to have a baby and move on, I had a baby to create a beautiful family' and that's what broke my heart. It's true. She never really saw it coming either."

Khloe and Tristan's relationship status is still unclear even now, seven months after the scandal came to light.

"Keeping Up With the Kardashians" airs Sundays at 9 p.m. ET on E!.

Warning: There are spoilers ahead for season nine, episode seven of "The Walking Dead,""Stradivarius."

Michonne "murdered" a violin, Enid and Tara are alive and well at the Hilltop, and Eugene's stuck in a barn somewhere, hopefully.

Sunday's episode of "The Walking Dead" may not have had as much action as previous weeks, but AMC's zombie drama set up a lot for next week's mid-season finale and gave us a much-needed heart-to-heart between Daryl and Carol.

This week's breakdown doesn't focus so much on callbacks to previous episodes and the comics. Instead, INSIDER spoke with episode director Michael Cudlitz, who played Abraham on the show, to get some inside knowledge on Sunday's episode. Keep reading to see what you may have missed on "Stradivarius."

The opening sequence with Rosita running through the woods was partially inspired by "The Blair Witch Project."

Cudlitz said his idea for the opening sequence was to make a mini movie.  

"We shot a ton of footage," Cudlitz told INSIDER. "But the idea behind it was I didn't want the audience to know what was happening at all. I want them to be discovering it as she was discovering it."

The final opening sequence we see is under a minute. Cudlitz says what he put together was maybe a full two minutes.

"One of the things that popped into my mind was 'The Blair Witch Project,'" said Cudlitz. "I wanted a 'Blair Witch Project' feel to that opening sequence, where you really felt like you were there with her, not watching it happen to her, but also having it happen to you. So we shot a bunch of stuff, where we were running with her, and following her, and tracking her in the woods."

Cudlitz said Christian Serratos, who plays Rosita, ran with a small camera attached to her, and that he wanted it to look and feel very personal to her as her character was on the verge of passing out. 

If you were wondering about this week's episode title, "Stradivarius," it's tied to a very particular violin, but has a much larger statement for society.

"Stradivarius, [are] probably the most beautiful violins ever made, certainly the most expensive," said Cudlitz. "The juxtaposition of that fact in this world, always struck me. It's something that in our world right now has a tremendous amount of value, but in that world [of 'The Walking Dead'] would have zero, except for the fact that it's connected to music, which has a tremendous amount of value."

On Sunday's episode, Michonne destroys one of these violins that Luke (Dan Fogler), a former music teacher, is holding.

"You can look at it and go, 'Well who the hell cares? It's Stradivarius, but who cares in this world?' And I think that Dan's character gives us that talk about what music, and art, and poetry mean," Cudlitz continued. "It's so significant to society. It is one of the first things that we lose when things get tight, either financially, or there's not enough time to do something. The first thing that goes is what we consider these things that are extra, which is music, art, and poetry. But it's one of the defining things that makes us who we are, makes it so we can survive as a people and come together as a group and strive and, as he puts it, thrive as humanity."

"That is what separates us from other creatures, is our ability to build things, to talk about things, to share stories, to make music," he added. "And our ability to do those things is only intensified by our ability to work with each other in doing those things, because we do make each other better."

Jesus is listening to records from Georgie, the mysterious woman who was introduced briefly last season.

When the Hilltop is introduced we can hear the song "April Skies" by The Jesus and Mary Chain. It turns out that's one of Georgie's records Jesus has borrowed. 

Georgie (Jayne Atkinson) is the woman Maggie came across on season eight, episode 12, "The Key." She wanted to trade plans for the new world in exchange for some food and records. 

Earlier this season, Jesus hinted Maggie may go and join Georgie's group. Georgie had been writing letters to Maggie to persuade her to join along on her adventure. It looks like something pretty significant happened to make her change her mind. 

Atkinson told INSIDER earlier this year that Georgie, who she believes to be a historian and professor, has a good reason to want to preserve music.

"Maybe she's communicating that creativity and artistry is so important to a surviving and thriving world. As you know, when things start to get very difficult and try to skew towards the more conservative, there is sometimes a desire to shut down the arts and not fund the arts and not fund creativity, because that's where consciousness lies," Atkinson said. "That's where evolution and change lie, in our imagination. We have the best gift on the planet at the imagination. And you can't buy it, you can try to co-opt it. But you can't shut it down. You can't ever shut it down. But there is always a movement to do that. So maybe that's the message."

It's very similar to what Cudlitz had to say about music.

Warning: There are some spoilers ahead for "The Walking Dead" universe.

Former "Walking Dead" showrunner Scott M. Gimple recently announced Rick Grimes' story will continue in a series of AMC original movies, and there's at least one other fan favorite who is down to return in his own project.

Michael Cudlitz, who directed Sunday's episode of "The Walking Dead" told INSIDER he's interested in doing a future "Walking Dead" movie or short with his character Abraham. 

"Yep. Yep, absolutely," said Cudlitz, who even has an idea of how he could appear even though his character was brutally killed off the show on the season seven premiere. 

"I think they've hinted in that direction when they showed last year, on 'Fear the Walking Dead,' the tapes that were made by the reporter that were inside the truck. One of the tapes, when they did a close-up insert on it said Abe/Doctor," said Cudlitz referencing Maggie Grace's journalist character, Althea.

"That would be Abraham and Doctor Eugene Porter. So there's an interview somewhere. There's a story somewhere floating around out in that universe about us," he continued. "So I would certainly be open to that. I had a great time with the people in the show. It by no means defines my career, so I'm not in any rush to run away from it, so I would be fine with any of that."

The tape Cudlitz mentions was seen on the season four mid-season finale of "Fear The Walking Dead." It's known that Abraham and Eugene started their journey on "The Walking Dead" from Texas before they wound up heading to Washington, D.C. There's definitely some backstory waiting to be filled in there with how the two met up with Rosita.

For now, Cudlitz said he hasn't been approached about any sort of movie or short.

"No," he said. "And if I was, I couldn't tell you."

Fair enough.

And if we don't see Cudlitz return as Abraham, he said he'd love to return and direct more episodes of "The Walking Dead."

"Yes, I would love to," Cudlitz said. "If they'll have me, I would certainly come back. Everyone seemed happy. That doesn't always define what happens on the business side of things, and the creative side of things. All those choices are made, decisions are made by other people. But I've let them know that I'd be more than happy to come back if they wanted me to. So, we'll see what happens."

You can currently see Cudlitz on ABC's "The Kids are Alright," which was recently picked up for an entire season. He's also hoping to direct an episode on that show in the future.

NOW WATCH: There's so much CO2 in the atmosphere that planting trees can no longer save us

Warning: There are spoilers ahead for Sunday's episode of "The Walking Dead," season nine, episode seven, "Stradivarius."

The six-year time jump on "The Walking Dead" has given us new looks for some of our characters, but it has also introduced a new, darker mystery involving the letter "X" carved into the backs of some fan favorites. 

We first saw Michonne with the "X" on the lower left side of her back on season nine, episode six. On Sunday's episode, it was revealed Daryl has a matching mark on the same area of his back. His back was also covered in a number of scars. 

"Where we're dealing with Michonne, where she has separated herself from the Hilltop group, and sort of isolated herself with just Alexandria, we're not exactly sure why. We will find out later," Michael Cudlitz, who directed Sunday's episode of "The Walking Dead" and formerly starred on the show as fan-favorite Abraham, told INSIDER. "A lot of it's tied to the 'X' that we see on her back, that we just revealed on Michonne's back. Now we see it on Daryl's back."

"The audience is going to want to know what that's about," said Cudlitz, hinting that we may see the mark show up on others. "They're going to find out what that's about, but that is something that connects them all, even though they're all separated right now, we're going to find out why."

Some fans thought the "X"may have had to do with the remaining Saviors or another group trying to take over Alexandria.

On Sunday's episode, we see Michonne grapple with a hesitation to head to the Hilltop. Cudlitz said the "X" on her back has something to do with it, and we most likely won't have to wait too long to find out how she and Daryl both received their scars.

"We're going to find out why Michonne had distance with Maggie when last we saw [her], she didn't. I mean, they had conflict over the Negan thing, but that was resolved. She stepped aside. She let Maggie tell that story, and carry that story off the way that she had to, because she knew she had to," said Cudlitz of some change that occurred in Michonne and Maggie's relationship. "So there's no conflict left there, really. They actually agreed."

"So what's different now? We're gonna find out. But right now we know, in episode seven, that they're separated, and it's a wonderful reflective moment for Michonne to hear a small group sort of like holding a mirror up to what they used to be," Cudlitz said, comparing Magna's group to Michonne's original group with Rick. "This small group that not only needs each other, but is there for each other. And one of the people in that group is telling the story of, basically civilization, and what civilization needs to thrive, and one of the main things it needs to survive and thrive is to share."

"That's a really tremendous moment for Michonne, because she's hearing something that's going directly against how she's approaching life right now," added Cudlitz of the effect Magna's group is having and will continue to have on Michonne moving forward. "This is going to be really exciting to see what impact this new group has on them long term. We start the episode with... There's no way in hell she's going to Hilltop, we know that. And then by the end, the ultimate kicker that tilts it in the other favor is the Rosita thing, but would one person really pull her there?"

"Or is it a combination of what she's seeing with this group, that she's just thinking about going, and that was the defining moment that made her go to the Hilltop? Even though she didn't know until Siddiq tells her that Maggie's no longer there. So it's interesting. It's fun to watch the journey, it's fun to be part of it. And I think Angela [Kang]'s telling great stories," said Cudlitz.
