It may have happened and I didn't notice because of the chaos, but I don't remember seeing the mystery truck driver leave the prison grounds.

Nice to give this show its own thread. I think that dude is still in there. Also, I was bummed when hillbilly prisoner got shot.

Mystery driver looked like a small woman.  First guess was andrea, but they didn't really set that up.

I'm really questioning the Governor's tactics in attacking the prison. Its obvious he just wanted to send a message, they did not attempt to storm the prison.
 
Breaking down the front gate was a good idea but WTF was the point of loading the truck with walkers? They fit what like 10-15 walkers in there? Is that supposed to make the prison yard unusable? Once they leave ricks group will have the yard clear in 5 minutes.

If breaking down the gate and releasing walkers was meant to be a distraction for another attack it would make sense...But there was not other attempt to take the prison...and they left the truck there, didnt even drive away in it....I guess ricks group will now have a perfectly good armored zombie carrier now.

no way merle kills the governor.  it has to be rick.

some non-bbs friends always predict the end of rick, but they are dumbasses.  the show is about rick, he will be there until the end.

I get why they broke down the gate but why leave the truck? The chick could of easliy just driven out after letting the walkers loose.

And if you are going to go through the hassle of breaking down the gate at least bring in more than 10 walkers...They will have those cleared and the gate repaired by nightfall.

Earlier in the episode they alluded to another herd of walkers.  so that herd will probably be showing up soon.

Well the group is Rick (crazy), bald chick, Hershel (1 leg), Maggie (depressed), other girl (looking after baby), Carl (11 years old), samuri chick, Glenn (angry), and Daryl (MIA). Not exactly surprising they let one slip through the cracks.

In other news last nights episode sucked pretty hard before the last 10 minutes......Need less talking and more zombie blasting/fighting the governor.

I guess you could say that about every episode though.

think the plan, and this is just a guess, from the governor maybe centered around the decision to drain the groups ammunition? which is why maybe he shot all those bursts into the air: to try and draw more fire from the group?

I'd like to retract the first bit. I was mixing up some details. They must be randomly finding equipment at the moment,  :dunno:.

Tyrese, if they even stick close to the source material will move in to a larger role.

So kind of a general question, why are all non-zombie people total pricks to every new non-zombie person they encounter?  I would be pretty stoked to find groups of people who weren't trying to eat me.  Also, why don't they just load up and try and drive like 500 miles north?

Finally, do walkers ever crap/piss?

1. I'm sure people were nice to newcomers in the first couple of months but you only have to be robbed once before you become a total dick to all newcomers.

2. Why would they want to drive north into colder weather and heavily populated(walkers now) areas? Anyways the roads are full of parked cars so travel is difficult. They can't just hop on the freeway and drive up to chicago for the weekend.

3. All indications are that they do not. Infact sometime their tummy's get so full they explode!

Tyrese and his group were kicked out of the prison by Rick in midseason premiere.  Next week they will find Woodbury and meet the Governor.

Wouldn't walkers freeze solid?  They have no heartbeat, so generate no heat and just hang around out side.  They would freeze as soon as it got below 32.

jakesie was right though a while back this show has just done a terribly shitty job developing characters. Daryl is probably the only one I would care if they killed off. We need some flashbacks to times without walkers imo but it is probably too late.

Yeah, it's amazing to me that on this show everybody can headshot zombies left and right, even while running. They never miss. Yet the governor just stands out in the open for like 10 minutes straight, moving less than a zombie, and nobody can hit him. They fire hundreds of bullets his way and not a single one touches him.

Post by: Stevesie60 on February 27, 2013, 12:20:37 AM
Dramas can be really awful when you only get to watch them on episode at a time. Good dramas take multiple episodes to build tension (see Breaking Bad) and when you only see a small piece of a big picture, it can seem pretty insignificant. But when you get to see all of it you'll realize the small pieces significance.

the show does create a lot of weird pulls in the audience's loyalties because of stuff like this. for example: i hate the governor (obvz antagonist), identify with rick (obvz protagonist), but i can't fault tyrese, who i also think is a completely decent dude due to the preventing of the shovel massacre at the prison, for saying "eff that guy for putting a gun on me" and joining forces with the governor for an opportunity at a normal life and safety.

another character that creates a huge amount of conflict within the viewer is merle. can you trust him to continue to work with the group and to chalk up his past discretions to "gustapoism"? idk? probably plenty of twists left though with him... "if there are any problems with your brother, it's on you."

I'm thinking carol takes one to the dome. Rick is shot but lives and at least 1 other person from the prison group gets bit.


Also I bet they have a couple of skirmishes then right before/during the big battle some huge herd of walkers shows up and everyone just splits.

Also I bet they have a couple of skirmishes then right before/during the big battle some huge herd of walkers shows up and everyone just splits.

Merle has to die.  They won't just let him hang around keeping everyone on edge.

Think after that Cat thing, Michonne is for sure gonna die.

No way. Michonne is a staple in the graphic novels. And they finally made her do something to show that she has a personality.

I almost stopped watching this show for good after that beginning. Why did they need to get in there so badly that they would risk their lives going through booby traps to get that dude to his bed? And why does Rick casually yell down to Carl to watch the trip wire? Like, your son is going to die if your message isn't very clear. Why would you not just make him wait outside anyway?

I really enjoyed seeing someone really effed up because of everything that's been going on. Enjoyed isn't the right word, but they needed to show how effed up this kind of stuff can make you. Especially when he was begging them to kill him, it made you realize how tragic this type of world would be.

i've been over-analyzing this show, and here's my list of people who are not going to be killed off throughout the entire series:

- Rick
- Carl
- Little Asskicker

This show is Rick's story.  I don't think that he or the rest of his family are ever killed, and the three of them are together at the last scene of the series, whenever that may be.


Here's my list of people who won't be killed off for a really long time, if ever:

- Darryl
- Michonne
- Andrea




I think the rest of them could be killed off any time.

This is what the hiker/backpack pickup scene was all about too. How jaded they have become to other in need.   They consciously made the decision, not once but twice,  to move on without the guy then emotionlessly grab his crap and roll on.  Stark change in rick here.

Also,  michonne discussing how she also used to talk to her dead bf. Made it ok that rick broke w reality,  to the point that he joked about it.

The show hasn't been following the grahic novel series very closely (for instance, Axel is a pretty major character in the series) but Carl dies in the graphic novels. Doubt he dies in the TV series, but I thought it was interesting.

Weird episode. Rick realized the Governor was there early, but still didn't search the table and chair to see if he planted something? Even after being trained as a cop? And the Governor does not seem like someone who would want to drink during a meeting where he needs to be on edge and ready for a physical altercation at any point.

I did like the ending. The debate about what to do with Michonne is pretty great, and they do a good job of showing Rick struggling with the logical decision and the emotional decision. Although I'm pretty sure he admitted that the Governor would probably try to kill them anyway, so I'm not sure why he was still tempted by that choice.

Nancy Negs: The warehouse scene was way too drawn out for having such little intensity. Why did the Governor keep honking when he was driving up to Andrea? Did he think she didn't see him? The Governor's whistle is stole directly from Omar in The Wire. It was an entire episode based on Andrea. The scene where Tyrese holds that white dude over the pit of walkers had less intensity than the warehouse scene. Also, I have a big complaint about the opening scene: Just because they have 2 walkers chained up close to them should not completely cover their scent. Otherwise you could walk into the middle of a big group of walkers and they would not be able to smell you. Stupid.

Peggy Po's: The last 5 minutes were great: lose all hope as Andrea gets tackled by The Governor right before Rick sees her, Governor lying about finding Andrea so he can have her all to himself, Governor successfully convinces Tyrese and his girl to stay and trust him, and showing the zombies after they were all burnt up was pretty cool. That scene was handled well. I liked that they showed a flashback of Andrea and Michonne to show that they really do get along, because we haven't really seen that. They show why the nerdy guy has been so loyal to The Governor.
Title: Re: The Walking Dead (official thread, 'clams not allowed)

I must have missed why the nerdy guy is loyal.  All I saw was him saying that he knew him before the zombie thing happened and that he thinks there is some of that left.

 :dunno:

Also, I don't get the whistling thing.  If they didn't have the scene of him taping it while sitting in his torture chair, I would think that he did the whistling and the honking to try to attract biters because he is armed and she isn't(very well anyway) and that may benefit him in stopping her.  However, with him taping it, I assume that they are just showing that he is slipping further into becoming crazy. 

I also liked the flashback.  Something the haven't done enough of.

I think each season is going to move from place to place, carrying with a group of survivors from each previous season.  Maggie/her sister from 2 and probably Tyrese/his female from this one.  I don't imagine Hershel can survive a quick exit or that the show will change Merle's character enough to let him coexist with the group, so they have to die.  From what I've heard about the books, I would think the governor would be a character for more than one season.  I just can't imagine how that would work if they leave the prison though :dunno:

Given the show's propensity to bring characters back, I guess it wouldn't be impossible for them to escape the prison in a gun fight and run into the governor again later.

If they move from season to season, which is what the producer interview I read hinted at, it would mean that either the Gov'r won and removed them from the prison, or that it became over run again beyond regaining. 

Could see both happening I guess.

Could see both happening I guess. 


I predict gun fight and then zombies overrun, but that seems like the obvious answer

Getting the feeling that the Gov is kinda a dick.  I mean, when he was first introduced, he kept telling ppl to make sure they effect the head(Saints ref) when killing someone so they don't come back.  But when he drops Merle, he does so with a shot to the chest.   :horrorsurprise:

Great episode. Milton's demise was fairly predictable, as was Andrea's after the next-to-closing scene.

The migration of at least some of the Governor's populace to the prison was kind of unexpected, but will do nothing more than to piss off the Governor. And those who made the migration were clearly non-combatants, which will make the Gov more confident that he can take the prison. (The question begged of course, is where are the Gov and his remaining loyalists?)

That said, the clear rift developing between Carl and Rick is intriguing. Can't wait until the series resumes in October.

Yeah and to be fair, Andrea was going to die in the CDC until silver fox talked her out of it.  We don't know exactly how many people live there, and by the looks of it a fair amount of people went to fight at the prison before the Gov went nuts.  Also with the ones that left, how many people still live there, besides of course the Gov's 2 remaining "true followers." 

I agree about the father and son rift, Carl got his first taste of cold blood murder.  He did however have some good logic IMO of how silver fox and Lorrie died.  CAN'T WAIT TILL SEASON 4!  :excited:

I was expecting more to the confrontation with the Gov but fully get why they didn't do that.  He was fully defined last night.  This whole season has been a slow transition from a conflicted guy transitioning toward a monster.  They did a good job of that over this season.  It will be interesting to see what next season centers on, though.  I mean, if it is just another one of them defending the prison from some evil guy, it will get old.

I didn't buy the gov as this horrible psychopath until last night.  I don't know where he goes from here.  Maybe like a captain ahab type that begins recruiting new guys?  I imagine he'll show up now and again to cause trouble but with only 3 guys?  bfd.

Having all those old people at the prison will undoubtedly cause all kinds of new problems.

Next season pretty much has to be about the rift between Carl and Rick + finding food to maintin a larger population.  They picked up all of the people from Woodbury, but only Tyrese, his sister, and that lady they saved are of fighting/scavanging age. 

I'm surprised the prison group survived the finale with zero casualties.  I figured the only guaranteed characters would be Carl, Rick, and Daryl. 

Eventually the zombies have to die out by starvation, right?  Milton mentioned they need to eat, and eventually the available people out in the open to eat are going to run out.

One plus is that when the Gov shot ppl up and rolled out, he left all their weapons and stuff with the dead ppl.  So, he armed the prison, unless the writers don't address this or we are to assume something else.

Also, Rick had mentioned them farming the yard...

I hope this doesn't happen.  Would be horrible tv.

Last night's episode was pretty meh.  They tried to do too much in one hour.

They spent several episodes foreshadowing a huge war at the prison.  All the buildup was for a major battle between the two groups, and we got a few minutes of the Governor's group playing Dora the Explorer before they ran away like little bitches because two people took some potshots at them.  Seriously guys?  You have rocket launchers and a .50 cal (don't give me the "it was jammed" nonsense, they wouldn't have lasted this long if they didn't know how to clear a jam) and you're going to run because a few shots were fired and there were some loud noises?  Also, WTF were Rick and Darryl doing during the "attack"?

Don't spend multiple episodes making us think there will be some huge fight and then give us that weak crap while spending half the finale showing how Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!) Andrea is.  Maybe she wouldn't have died if she spent more time trying to get out instead of staring at Milton and talking to him.

I watched season 1 this past week for the 1st time.  Early on, the zombies were way smarter and faster.  They were climbing chain link fences, using rocks to break through glass doors, actually running, etc. 

When the gov. escaped that warehouse where Andrea had trapped him with 20+ zombies a few episodes ago, I begin to wonder how anyone has ever been bitten at all?

I don't think we are supposed to apply much logic to the zombies.  I mean, if you do, you have to start with understanding that the whole thing happened a yr in the show's past.  Over a year, the decomposition of the dead would make the whole area smell really bad, but otherwise safe as can be. 

Don't over think it.  It's not about zombies, but it's a zombie show.

I figured the Governor had taken on too large a role (and had too large of one in the graphic novels) to just be killed off.  It makes sense that they stay in the prison. Kinda hoping each season was going to take place at a new locale, but it would be hard to improve on the prison.  The conflict scene should've had more to it than that, but I thought the rest of the episode was good.  Surprised that nobody from the group died and both Andrea and Milton died.  Would've thought one was going to make it out.

I figure at the start of the next season they will thin out the new arrivals herd pretty fast.

I still like the show, the Rick/Carl relationship issues are intriguing and are a good way to deal with moral questions.

However, I cannot freaking stand the crap like what they had in the cell with Andrea and Milton. I agree with Jakesie, great premise, cool twist on the opening. But then having her talk to Milton while slowly taking her precious time to get the pliers? I mean my goodness that crap is stupid. Maybe in between long loving glances and precious memories you might want to move with a bit more urgency to free yourself before Milton becomes a zombie and eats your pretty little neck.

I think the Carl stuff would be more interesting if he was older.  If he was mid teens or something, it would feel more wide open what-is-he-gonna-do type stuff.  But at his current age, you just expect Rick to tell him to shut up and clean his room.  I mean, ultimately, who cares what an 11 yr old thinks about how his dad is leading a bunch of adults through a morally ambiguous waste land full of dangers unknown?  Unless Carl is simply used as a device to illustrate to the viewer one of the major conflicts in Rick's role, it seems somewhat useless.

I think the Carl stuff would be more interesting if he was older.  If he was mid teens or something, it would feel more wide open what-is-he-gonna-do type stuff.  But at his current age, you just expect Rick to tell him to shut up and clean his room.  I mean, ultimately, who cares what an 11 yr old thinks about how his dad is leading a bunch of adults through a morally ambiguous waste land full of dangers unknown?  Unless Carl is simply used as a device to illustrate to the viewer one of the major conflicts in Rick's role, it seems somewhat useless.

What if it opens with 10 Years after outbreak  :dunno:

Pilot episode, Governor's daughter

They probably want to avoid too much violence against children, even zombie children.  I suppose a canon answer could be that since they're smaller/weaker, children were more likely to be devoured than simply bitten.

Now that I think about it, they're probably all at the McDonald's playground, snoozing in the plastic rooms above the slides until someone comes by.

Eventually the zombies have to die out by starvation, right?  Milton mentioned they need to eat, and eventually the available people out in the open to eat are going to run out.

Everyone's infected = continuous supply of fresh zombies

Seems like they eat almost all of the recently deceased if they can get to them in time*.  People dying among the living are getting their brains scrambled immediately at this point.

* EXCEPT SOFIA FOR SOME REASON

For animals, it's not like they're running down deer*, so that should be an issue too eventually


*except for that one, non-zombie prisoner who somehow ran down a deer and killed it with an axe and drug it back to the prison.

Just finished watching seasons 1-3. First season was great. Second season was meh. Third season picked up a little, but the series just seems to be running out of plot. Where does this series go? The zombies are more of a nuisance than a threat, and continuing to defend the prison against bad guys is getting old. And as interesting as rebuilding society and subsistence farming in a zombie apocalypse might be in real life, it's going to make for really boring TV without more genuine conflict and exploration.

The show needs a change of scenery and, better yet, a quest. I'm hoping the prison gets overrun in the first episode, and they humans have to move on.

3 seasons in and we still don't know what their daily lives are like.  What do they do for fun?  Do they ever tell jokes?  Do they ever stop talking to each other like they've all just met a few minutes ago?  Why is the show so goddamn serious all the time even though nothing happens? 

So glad Game of Thrones is on instead.

IMO they nees more running around a killing zombies and less omg can we stay at hershells farm?

Did you know there is a walking dead bbs called roamers and lurkers . Com or something?  Some one from the production team posted season 2 spoilers about carl killing shane :(.

I'm a little apprehensive about the early portion of season 4.  As ben ji said, they need more action and less The Walking Farm.  But since they took in all those refugees, I just feel like that's setting them up to spend the first half of season 4 trying to rebuild/resettle the prison instead of hitting the road.

I don't understand this post. First half of Season 2 was the only extremely slow part of the show. Season 3 had much, much, much, much more action that Season 2 as a whole. More than season 1 as well.

Parts of season 3 were just as slow as the first half of season 2.  What I'm worried about is that season 4 will revert to that.  Think about it.  Governor and his henchmen were last seen retreating (not saying they're gone permanently, just for a little while).  Rick brought in all the women and children and elderly from Woodbury.  Just feels like it's setting up the main conflict to be boring crap like having enough supplies for everybody and making sure everyone gets along instead of fighting the Governor or fending off walkers or finding a new place to stay.

Season 3 sucked for one reason: it drug out the final conflict way too long only to have it end in 5 minutes. And it was an entire group of people who retreated forever because of a couple gun shots that no one even died from.

I feel like season 4 is going to focus on how messed up Carl has become due to growing up in a world like this. But regardless, this show is on the edge for me. If it doesn't get good in 2-3 episodes I'm calling it quits. It's always been a guilty pleasure at best and lately it's been suffering through the bad for no pay off.

K-S-U-Wildcats! my word what a dolt.

I thought the trailer was epic and rad.
What I liked:
1. They defend the prison with sharpened sticks, like William Wallace uses on Braveheart against the English
2. They go to the grocery store. I would go straight for the candy and hope there is tropical skittles, or possibly Wildberry  :crossfingers:
3. Carol teaches knife fighting school to children. I would love that.
4. SOMEONE IS DRAWING THE ZOMBIES IN WITH DEAD RATS! WHO IS THE TRAITOR?  :horrorsurprise:
5. The guy who was the boxing coach on the Wire just goes in a zombie circle and starts stabbing heads while the other guy who was the barksdale drug dealer who got killed in prison on The Wire watches and screams. Seems like an awesome scene, and since they teased it, I bet he stabs enough zombie heads to make it out of there.
6. Maggie and Glenn snuggle.  :love:
7. THEY RIDE HORSES

Also, other stuff. I liked it and I like the show. Go Cats.

Sure did. Only thing I saw that even remotely gives me hope is the black woman tracing a finger on the map. They'll agonize over that for at least 6 episodes. Saw them driving in a car a few times, probably going to and from the grocery store.

Also saw a lot of swatting mosquitos, I mean, stabbing zombies through the fence. Never saw that happen before.

I'm going to commit to giving up on The Walking Dead for good, mostly based on principle. It averages 3 to 4 times as many viewers as Breaking Bad and Mad Men, and that's just sickening to me.

This is stupid. Football averages more viewers than Breaking Bad too, better tune out based on principle.

I was already on the fence about TWD after the awful season finale. I mean, they built up this epic showdown the whole season, make the 3 episodes leading up to it super boring leading one to believe they're going to compensate for it with the finale, and boom, a two minute showdown with little action or conclusion in which the Governor and Rick don't even meet. I stuck with Dexter because at least it's fun to watch, and I was thinking about sticking with TWD because of the middle few episodes of season 2, but it's not fair that a show that awful gets those kinds of numbers.

I like TWD because of zombies, even if they are few and far between at times.  I do not make judgments on its quality.  Just that is has zombies.  Which it does.  I know you probably like to perceive television more as a medium of art.  Some people perceive it purely as entertainment.  I have shows for each, TWD is entertainment

The 3 episodes leading up to it were fine. The butthurt is so high about the finale that people have retro-actively decided to hate the rest of season 3. Its just like season 4 of Dexter, but opposite. People loved the ending so much that they forgot there was a lot of dumb crap going on that season that they gladly ignore.

I has the worst character development I've ever seen on a show. The guy who wrote the episode in which they go and find the black guy in season three and he has all those traps set up and stuff is writing all of season 4. Turns out everyone realized the character development is awful since he's the only one who did a decent job of developing the characters they turned the reigns over to him.

I never watched it for the zombies. I like the idea that they basically have to create a new set of morals to live by in a fallen world. However they tried to turn it into an action show with a hero and a villain and failed miserably.

Also, the crazy woman.....she looked like a zombie for ever.  I half expected her to turn out to be some new kind of zombie that can talk now.  I expect we will see her again since Rick left her, but if not, what purpose did she serve? 

The Store scene was crazy awesome.

Just marathoned through season 3 on netflix, leading up to S4 premier.  Think the story's gotten stale.  I was hoping they'd move on past the prison and discover some cool new crap about the virus or find some section of society where the virus hadn't spread.  Granted, I've not read the comics.  I don't know how this story ends. 

But, then they just dug in at the prison and it was just pretty stupid a lot of the time.  Season 3 could have been condensed into about 8 episodes, instead of 16. 

But, even though the story has gotten pretty lame and I hate about half of the characters, I still love the show.

Not that the show needs to account for every possible scenario but I am pretty surprised they haven't really dealt with booze except for the one token bar scene where Rick kind of did a alcoholic freak out.  You would think under the circumstances people would be looking to get pak'd pretty often.

If I have to watch medic guy do an alcoholic freak out every other epi I will get sick of it pretty quick.

He needs to go full alcoholic and be the only medical guy available because the old balls vet dies or something.  Unstable but needed.  That would make for some ok tv.

His "bottom" had to be really, really low to stick with the program during the zombie apocalypse.

There are definitely instances of it.  I'm just saying you would think when they go on these "runs" someone would hit a pakie and load up for some binging.

On the one hand, you need a few people to stay clear headed and on the lookout.  But, on the other you could imagine that it would be pretty nice to get lit and forget about your zombie troubs for a while, ya know?

Did they ever explain what they do with the all the zombie mosquitoes they zap at the fence each day? Is there another crew that has to go out and drag, like, a couple hundred bodies to some massive burning pile of corpses each day? That would be really tiring and smelly.

Also, any guesses on what's going to happen this season to make it somewhat new and entertaining?

Hershel did tell Rick that he was doing a great job feeding everyone and soon they would have more food than they knew what to do with.  I guess you just need to break off branches and plant those if you really want to increase your yields.

Zombies taking responsibility for themselves, finding a cure to their sickness, raising a town hall out of down limbs, and organizing a new govt that is fair and just without over reaching into the private lives of it's citizens and without hampering open and free markets or trying to control any portion of the population.  A zombie-remission govt that serves it's ppl, not the other way around.

Well, obviously I am biased.  I predict a 60-40 split between reasonable people on that decision, with more giving Hersh a free pass because of oldness and loss of legness.

I hope the show doesn't go in either of those directions. Just seems very flat right now. They should have left the prison. Might be nice if the zombies become dangerous again for starters.

I don't think they will stay in the prison for long but wish they would.  Seems like too good of a set up and probably smarter to defend come hell or high water than leave.  Also, they need to add a crazy survivalist that they come across.  Some wacko dude in a bunker that is stocked for 10 years.

I remember in season 2 or 3 they go walking into a neighborhood and all the lawns are mowed.

But for the prison, they've obviously got a mowing crew. I hope it's not the crew that has to scoop up all the mosquitoes at the fence each day. Would suck.

They should do one "day in the life" show where we get to see all the mundane crap they do. I mean, obviously, you gotta have your standard 5 minutes of zombie slaughter, but that's just a trip to the store.

Rick strapped his gun back on, and gave Carl a gun. Rick's mental crap is now together...at least for the time being.

He may be sorta getting stuff together, but from his hesitation killing the walkers on the fence and sacrificing his pigs, he is still pretty messed up. IMO.

Wait, if they're already infected, then why do zombie bites kill them? I'm guessing getting a mouthful of zombie blood probably isn't a good thing. The mosquito patrol really should be wearing masks and goggles. Trip to the hardware store next week?

I think he cut some of the ligaments so the pigs couldn't run away from the walkers

Constant battle between his "I just want to raise my kid in peace" persona and the "Its the end of the world I have to kill anyone and everyone that is a threat to me".

I'm waiting to see if they stick close to his character arch. They've already eliminated one super stud/boss action he took when the group originally found the prison. I love the actor they chose to play him. Chad Coleman was great in The Wire.

This is why Carroll is a distinct possibility, especially considering her eagerness to train the children how to kill zombies. She may want to set up opportunities for killing as many zombies as possible to avenge the death of her daughter by training other children kill the zombies.  Very psychological, and logical, stuff.

Probably more rhetorical question but have you ever heard the word "zombie" used on this series?  And why name them walkers?  This is supposed to be America in the not near future. If you saw a dead guy walking towards you trying to eat you wouldn't you say "holy eff that is a zombie!" not "look at that undead human walking around, I will call them 'Walkers'"

This show sucks. Season 1 was almost movie-quality good, but things have gotten progressively worse with each season. The zombies are boring. The big post-apocalyptic set pieces have been dropped (budget?) and we're down to a prison and occasional trips to the supermarket. All that's left are the characters, most of whom were never that good in the first place. We're 3 or 4 episodes into the 4th season and it's just more of the same.

I want to see them move out of the prison and find new territory.  The city scenes in season 1 were great.

Agreed on the city scenes.

Apparently, AMC significantly cut the budget after Season 1. Hence the move from a decaying Atlanta, CDC, etc. to a farm. Fired Darabont, too.  :flush:

I hope it's before the end of the season.  Another season at the Prison is going to suck.

Also, the first episode kept showing a poster/scene type teaser showing rick standing in a huge hole in a broken fence.  It's happening and it will happen right as the flu causes someone important to be on the edge of death or something.  Maybe right before Daryl and crew gets back?

yeah, i am guessing the prison will get overrun and daryl and crew will get back in time to help get people out.  does daryl and crew find the governer soon?  maybe!

Daryl and crew will either:
1. race back to prison to get another car and warn about crazy large herd coming that way

or

2. stupidly try to travel the rest of the 50 mile one way and get split off from the prison ppl becasue the large herd over runs them and they have to leave before daryl gets back.

I'm excited for the rest of the season because literally every single thing that was in the comic con trailer was from the first 3 episodes.  I think that huge herd of zombies is what is going to overrun the prison.

Also I didn't rewind it to watch but didn't that building behind the huge cluster of zombies look like Oregons new athletic facilities?

I'm curious as to why the giant herd was walking that direction.  We probably will never know, but something usually sets them off.  Additionally, it was a giant herd....not 50 or so zombies.  Looked like thousands.

alright, in the books tyreese joins the group when the first get to the prison. he is involved extensively in the cleaning up process. A traumatic event occurred during the early moments at the prison that sent tyreese off the deep end. later, while a four man party was attempting to rid the prison's gym of a horde of walkers that had been locked in there since the outbreak. tyreese got seperated from the other three and was overrun. they had to abandon him and lock him in the gym. in the books rick came back, after some time, expecting to find tyreese's body mutilated by the remaining walkers. instead, tyreese was sitting in the middle of the floor surrounded by a mass of mutilated bodies, sobbing.

it was a much more powerful moment, one that could have been easily duplicated for the show and the staff mumped it up, like they have with so many other pivotal moments.

One of the earlier Talking Dead shows this season said that the show would be introducing several of the most popular comic book characters to the tv show this season.  So, maybe they plan to pull back in line a little?  I had no idea a comic existed until last year.  Haven't read it.

That Tyreese scene should have been the one in the show.  Could have very easily made that work and it would have been pretty awesome, more so than what they showed last night.

it seems that overall, people who haven't read the comics love everything about the show, and people that have read them are a little upset.

seems pretty normal in comparison to books/movies and stuff.

i like that it doesn't go along with the comics so that the comic book people can't ruin crap.

I wouldn't be surprised if part of the reason for the spinoff is so The Walking Dead can adhere a bit more to the comics and please that crowd a bit more and then the new one can do whatever the eff they want.

Other than Tyrese killing zombies with a hammer, the two scenes sound completely different.  Not sure they were ever intended to be related, short of Tyrese is the hammer guy like Michonne is the sword girl and Darrel is the crossbow dude.

cns: just torrent them all and read them on your pc/tablet/e-reader. they go very quick and are quite enjoyable. fwiw, i've never been a big comic guy and i liked these.

also, they are introducing two important characters this season, but the story line is in such a weird limbo right now that it's hard telling what their role will be.

ok cat: do you know a lot of dickheads that have done that in the past? i don't know of many individuals who would do such a thing. i'd like to watch the best show possible. for that to happen i think the show needs to stick to the source material.

personally, i'd rather the show stick to the original, better storyline. i can think of only one instance in television/ movies where the on screen adaption made changes to the source material and ended up with a better product, the 25th hour.

Yep, just watched tonight.  Boring as crap. The most exciting part was when they thought they heard somebody on the radio.  Then they hit some zombies and it was back to the trivial, mundane goings on inside the prison. 

How many episodes have there been this season?  It feels like it's been one, really long, boring episode.

I keep watching because post-apocalyptic stories can be fascinating.  With some imagination and a well-funded budget, this show could be more compelling. 

We've got a worldwide pandemic that has turned civilization upside down.  and the most interesting thing happening in this show is carol cleaning a water filter at an Atlanta prison.

Tyreese is unstable and huge and super good with his hammer in a non-lets-build-stuff way.

If the Carol issue isn't addressed, Tyreese and Rick are going to have a big problem.  Even if Tyreese never knows that Rick knows who it is, Tyreese will have a problem with Rick not finding who did it.  That said, of course Tyreese will find out.

I like Tyreese and think that he could be really interesting very shortly. 

I don't know if I have a fav story line right now, but it definitely feels like they are building to something that could be very entertaining and that it is coming shortly.

Physical safety/survival, flu epidemic, Rick's unstable emotional issues, Carol being all extra calloused about killing ppl and training others to be calloused, Tyreese being super good at killing ppl with a hammer and having just had his GF killed by someone in the prison....  This is all about to explode.  I keep watching because the monotony of the prison setting hasn't outweighed what I think will be the pay off soon.

I liked the exchange between Carl and Herschel when they were outside the prison walls. Ol' Herschel all picking berries with his one leg, blithely rambling about how safe and peaceful it is outside and how it may even be safer outside the walls than in, and Carl is all, "no we're not dummy (gun drawn) and we'll never be".  I thought it was a good scene showing the last generation with the first generation. Herschel will always see the zombie apocalypse as something that happened to his world whereas for Carl it is his world - there is no peace.

But I'm almost with Belvis on this one - I'm finding it hard to muster the energy to care anymore. For example, I've been waiting for the moment where they finally get radio contact and thought it would be a central point to the season in which it occurred and they got it this episode (faintly) and I had basically no reaction. Its missing a cohesive plot to me right now. Just seems like a bunch of despair punctuated with the occasional errand.

I actually enjoy this season, and I'll tell you why. You see, this season is about who retains their humanity and who loses it. Each person mourning death differently, the blond saying "we don't get to be upset", the little girl being said about Nick the Zombie, Tyrese being messed up by going out on a run. Their examining the emotions of the characters more and moving the plot less. That's more interesting to me than 45 minutes of zombie smashing every week.

There's not a sense of community with this group, no centralized decision making apparatus. Herschel referenced some pow-wow that the group was going to have but that we have never had insight into. We are nearly half way through this season and I have no built in relationship with any of these people. Tyrese's girlfriend? Whatever.

My other point where I think they are missing is the creativity behind their survival. There has to be some ingenuity or at least some heavy supply stealing in order to keep that place running. I want to see the food pantry or how they reinforce the fence, is there an alarm system, who has nightwatch, or show me something creative like how they heat the water or generate electricity. Show some cool engineering junk that I wouldn't be able to do on my own without an iPhone and like 4 months of prep work.

I've always thought a fundamental component of a good story is cliffhangers.  I love a good book where I finish a chapter and can't wait to turn the page.  Or, in a good show (BB for instance) each episode concludes, leaving you wanting more. 

TWD has been like this at times, but it's pretty clearly lost its way.  I don't want stretches of episodes devoted to "character development" in lieu of story development.  They aren't mutually exclusive concepts.

The problem with this show relying on character development is that most of the remaining/new characters suck. For example, I don't care about Carol getting all dark because I don't give a crap about Carol. Now that I think about it, the lack of interesting characters is going to be a big problem even if the plot does start moving again.

The loss of Lori has made me care less about Rick. With her character you were given insight into Rick's psyche and the tension between the betterment of the group vs the risk to their family and vice versa - plus the subplot with Shane. There isn't a whole lot we get from Rick now besides physical manifestations of his anger  whereas before that would be the final action (like w/ Shane) rather than the first, or perhaps only indicator of his decline.

Good point. Lori wasn't my favorite character, but the Lori Rick Shane dynamic was interesting. Rick isn't nearly as interesting now. Same with Daryl and his brother. That was really good. Then they killed off the brother. Now Daryl is flat.

They need to come up with an eventual goal, which is a large part of what made season 1 so good.  Get to safety and hang out there, then get to the CDC when safety ended in disaster.

Lately, it's been missing that, and focusing more on every day survival and the loss of humanity, which is boring.  They should be able to do both.

It's still confusing why the remaining survivors wouldn't pick better weapons or wear the body armor.  "Hmm...looks like Michonne has no issues talking down walkers from a safe distance with that bad-ass sword.  Should I use a razor sharp machete?  Nah, I'm good with a hammer or a little knife."

They need to come up with an eventual goal, which is a large part of what made season 1 so good.  Get to safety and hang out there, then get to the CDC when safety ended in disaster.

Lately, it's been missing that, and focusing more on every day survival and the loss of humanity, which is boring.  They should be able to do both.

Agreed. But even if they start moving again, they're going to need better characters.

It's still confusing why the remaining survivors wouldn't pick better weapons or wear the body armor.  "Hmm...looks like Michonne has no issues talking down walkers from a safe distance with that bad-ass sword.  Should I use a razor sharp machete?  Nah, I'm good with a hammer or a little knife."

Exactly. If I'm in a zombie apocalypse, I'm going with a weapon that puts me at least a few feet away from the teeth/claws. Baseball bat seems like a nice, if messy choice. Maybe all the sporting goods stores were cleaned out early on.

Bombs, incendiary devices seem like logical choices too.  May not kill the zombies, but could neutralize large portions of zombie herds.  they need to welcome an engineer into their ranks.

Too bad they can't find some guy like Walter White who can teach them how to make automated trunk mounted machine gun turrets. Seems like a simple, natural solution to killing both nazis and zombies.

Maybe they should be dumping some gas on the walkers at the fence and lighting them up.  Solves both the walker and the cleanup problem at once.   :dunno:

Breaking Bad weeded out the dumbasses with the first half of the first season, basically.  The Walking Dead hit you in the face in the first 15 min.  If you didn't watch it after the first few epi's it was because you understood what it was and it wasn't for you.

I'd love for some back-story.  Like, how did this whole thing start?  Is it worldwide?  I'd also like to know how our entire military, government was completely eliminated. 

Like, we've got a roving band of humans, led by a cop, surviving at a prison.  And they've killed thousands of zombies using screwdrivers and hammers.  But, like, our military, armed with the most technically advanced weaponry, just got wiped out in a few weeks.  Let's talk topography too.  Obviously, these zombies get hungry and like loud noises.  So, logically, shouldn't there be a lot more survivors in less populated parts of the country.  Like the widwest or canada, or something?  Or, basically, the opposite of Atlanta, GA.  I imagine a place like North Dakota hasn't even seen a zombie and those that exist will probably freeze to death pretty soon.  Zombies aren't exactly in peak physical shape.  so, maybe moving your base of operations near some treacherous terrain would be smart.  Like, some fast running water (i.e. a river), or an island, or in the mountains.  or somewhere. 

There are so many unknowns.  yet, everybody seems content just raising pigs in a prison in Atlanta for a couple years.  I mean, buck up, get out there, and discover what, if anything, is left of humanity!

Welp, I guess I'm not the only one wanting to know how it all started.  But, apparently, the backstory won't ever been addressed in this Walking Dead.  But, maybe in the spin-off.  These are quotes from the current case, talking about their spin-off ideas. 

http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/live-feed/walking-dead-spinoff-ideas-cast-650159

Andrew Lincoln (Rick)
There's always the fascination when you watch something like our show and you think, "How did it start? What caused it? How do we cure it?" But that is completely at odds with what our show is about. The thing I love about our show is we're the grunts. We're the people that don't know anything. That's why I love episodes one and two because the new threat is the common cold that's going to kill us. There are countless areas that you can explore because it is about the human condition -- it's just a vacuum-packed perfect sort of lab test.
 
Danai Gurira (Michonne)
I would love to see how the government responded to the outbreak and how it crumbled. The amount of security systems this country has to see that start: What was it? How did they find out and see them as they know it got out of hand. I'd love to go right into that situation room. You always want to know more from that. Cracking more into how that all broke down and what that looked like.

Chad Coleman (Tyreese)
In this world, I'd like to see other communities and other places. I'd find a way to weave in what the apocalypse looks like around the world. Is there any way for us to have any communication to find out what's going on in Egypt? Or is there any way to see what's happening in the outside world? I'd love to see more about what the military's involvement really is because people often ask me how it happened and that's too big of a question for me. That's above my pay rate!


so, basically, the entire cast agrees that the show would be better if it focused more on big picture concepts and less on raising pigs and purifying water.

didn't they think it was a virus that made people sick at first and that the survivors were immune, but then CDC said they were all infected and just not everyone had symptoms?

I'd imagine 97% or whatever died from the virus and died from it.

I don't really care if they're doing what they said they would do - the show is either good or it isn't. Would it really be that hard to insert some flashbacks to the outbreak, or give the characters a goal beyond subsistence living in a prison? This does not make for entertaining TV.

it seems that overall, people who haven't read the comics love everything about the show, and people that have read them are a little upset.

seems pretty normal in comparison to books/movies and stuff.

i like that it doesn't go along with the comics so that the comic book people can't ruin crap.

I had no idea they were even based off of comics until season 2 or 3, and I'm continually disappointed in the show. Season 1 was awesome, and then season 2&3 happened.

I don't dislike it, as I still watch it weekly, but 60-70% of the show is garbage. The other 30-40% is pretty awesome though.

That is the only way its quasi-believable, but at their age the group would make them pull some weight.  Basically, if we keep running into dumbfucks who haven't been killed in the 2+ years since the apocalypse, its going to get old.  Everyone out there now should be relatively skilled.

You know why this episode was so good?  Because almost none of it took place in the prison.  They need to leave that dump behind in a hurry.  And yes Carol will be back, probably about the same time the prison gets overrun by that large horde of walkers she'll be around to save Rick or something.

If you hide from one zombie for 2 days you probably don't make it 2 years into the apocalypse, just saying.

agreed. they most likely had someone like the "old" Carol watching out for them, not letting them clear homes. I think the writers were just trying to make it obvious that Carol had changed when she suggested to Rick that they let those two help search homes. "Old" Carol would not have done that. "New" Carol was essentially saying, "if you aren't capable of searching a few homes, we don't want you."

I liked the epiosde because now it has finally set some new storylines up.  I also loved it that pretty much the whole episode was outside the prison.  Tyreese is a ticking time bomb that is going to get someone else killed when he goes into his crazy moods. 

I also thought it was kind of a dick move by Rick to be a child and lock the door and tell Carol to eff off.  Interesting what happens with her now tho, she is to much of a main character to end her tale like that.

Carol will be back, obviously.

When she shows up, Carl may kill her, for whatever reason he may come up with. Certainly a possibility, given the scattered storylines and his desire to kill.

This episode was better because they were outside the prison.  like others have pointed out.  I want to see what society looks like. 

But still, the story just moves sooo slow, tho.  An entire episode was devoted to Carol and the alcoholic doc.  100% focus on micro issues.  no macro storyline.  For those who read the comics, fill me in here - is there no macro, overarching storyline?  Is there no "goal?"  Or is this show just about meaningless, micro disputes within their family unit. 

In Cormack McCarthy's 'The Road,' they were following the road to the coast.  post-apocalyptic world.  no hope.  and the coast assuredly didn't hold a better life, but the story flowed a bit better with a context.  Everything that happened was in the course of their journey to the coast.  however small, just having that macro goal in TWD would make this show so much better.  As it is, it's just pretty frustrating.

I don't see that as a story line.  how they react to the illness is the story line.  And, to date, they aren't reacting.  They're just existing.

Exactly. This episode was a little better because they were outside the prison (the zombies are still mowing the yards, though!) and the Carol/Rick thing was at least somewhat entertaining. The rest of the "storylines" still suck, though. I don't care that the one dude is an alcoholic, or that Tyrese is having a breakdown, or that Daryl is having some sort of spat with Michone. It's just boring.

There are a lot of reasons why just focusing on characters in a hopeless situation worked in The Road, but not Walking Dead. First, the Road was a two-hour movie. Spreading that over 50 episodes would make for an incredibly depressing, and probably boring, TV series. Second, between the starvation and cannibals, there was a real sense of danger and foreboding in The Road, unlike Walking Dead, where characters are literally wrestling hand-to-hand with zombies in just about every show without getting a scratch. Third, the father, son, their relationship, and assorted smattering of other characters in The Road were both interesting and incredibly well performed. Not so with Walking Dead. Fourth, there was an actual goal in The Road.

To be totally honest, I could not give less than a eff about the governor.  they already have a crazy problem with walkers piling up on the fence.  I don't see him throwing a few rats around making it that much worse.  On the bright side, they will have to leave the prison that most have them have spent their entire adult lives at, so that will be something different.

I think the focus on the peas is something to try to force us to see that they are building a home at the prison.  Trying to make the viewers feel like it is more than just shelter but somewhere they have made life more life like.  they are doing this to have a greater effect when it is all ripped away from them.

I think the scene with the peas was intended to symbolize the concept that the writers needed to fill some screen time and the network said 7 episodes of people coughing up blood before they turned into a zombie was enough.  I may be reading too much into it.

Nope.  just asking for some more creativity/intrigue.  Season 2 had a few moving story lines, but pretty stale IMO.  Halfway through season 3 and the exclusive story line is a flu outbreak. 

at least Carl is turning into a badass and the show has better music.  Those are 2 positives.

This would be a good spinoff.  Interesting characters cede control of the prison to the Governor (now known as 'the Warden') and embark on a journey across America where they encounter interesting characters, interesting places, and interesting/suspensful situations.  We learn about the past and get a glimpse of what the future may hold.  And there will be cool music and cinematography.   

It would be similar to Walking Dead, but more interesting at every level.

ps, did any of you know that after Season 1, all of the Walking Dead screenwriters were fired and they just contracted with some freelance folks?   I didn't know this.  Could this explain why the story has blown ass?

There have been 3 show runners and who knows how many writers. Supposedly the reason they stay at places way too long is to save on set costs. It's not a well oiled machine. I just finished Breaking Bad and Walking Dead is so boring now. A whole season at a farm. Yay. Two seasons in a bunk ass prison. Ohhhh, a flu.

Booooooring.

The show shines when they are on the run and numbers are few. I want to see more bad ass moments, too. Too few of those lately.

The problem isn't the set.  If they would have been on the run the whole time that would have gotten old by now too.

The problem is there isn't a new threat.  Tons of zombies chasing the group.. well we know how that ends.  They tried turning this flu thing into a new threat but no one cares about sickness and it's not exciting to watch people throw up.

There was a point in this episode where I thought it was a "prequel" to the Governor getting to Woodbury, then the eye patch reminded me.

Those chicks seemed waaay too trusting.  Hey, there's a filthy guy with an eyepatch at the front door, might as well let him in.  Oh, he ate a plate of our Spaghettio's?  Well he's one of us now.

i wonder how they will continue this story.  they probably can't have several governor-only episodes in a row, but they almost need to get us up to date before they have him interact with the prison group.

maybe we will have a carol-only episode soon?

I think he is conflicted...like he was just a normal family guy before the zombiepocalypse then he pilled the power vaccum and let it corrupt in into become evil...when all his buddies left him he hit rock bottom and was all like "Man, I really became a jackass and ruined everything I built and I don't want to live anymore"....Maybe he goes all softy and nicely drops the family off at the gates? Nope probably wont happen

Best episode of the season. It was actually good, which is surprising given that the Governor was a pretty cheesy character last season. The new characters were interesting, the story was interesting, the Governor/Brian reboot is good, zombies actually seemed dangerous, it was just an all around good show.

The only dumb part was at the end when the girl is standing in the road and, rather than just grab her, the family just stands there and Brian is calling to her like a dog. I understand what it's supposed to signify, but it was still pretty 'tarded.

Also, the Gov was never totally evil - he just went power-crazy. It's going to be interesting to see how Brian reconciles his past with his redemption, especially since he's headed to the prison.

Good to get away from the prison and just ignore that crap for a full episode.  They can show Gov has a heart all they want, I don't think he was ever really one dimensional evil.  I think meeting up with the ol' gang will lead them to look for leadership from him and he will start to take power back and begin to look for revenge.

yep.  all around - well done.  Liked the intro where he's on his walkabout.  seems like they've gotten their crap together with character development.  last year, def cheesy.

Wonder what's gonna happen with his old posse.  they abandoned him and then, looking down at him in that pit at the end, didn't look to happy to see the old gub'na.  looks lke he's gonna have to kill off the posse to protect his new family.

It was away from the camp. Nothing else was around the RV Martinez was hitting golf balls from. Also, clubs in his bag looked pretty lame, like Wal-Mart cheapies. I think that had something to do with the Gov whacking him. Gov's probably a Titleist or Ping kind of guy and the crap equipment pushed him over the edge.

Rats was never particularly interesting to me.  I am ok if they just leave that story line in that past.  I think they tried to show the process that could turn a relatively normal person into a monster but they did it very heavy handed.  I was more satisfied with the Woodbury version of the Gov who's explanation was ZOMBIES!!!!  That was enough for me.

That's the theme.  But why wouldn't Rick be like "sure, have the swine flu prison"

Also, the whole rat thing is inane.  Like, zombz react to noise and movement.  3 dead rats in the bushes s pretty lame if trying to attract

Will be interesting to see where they go.  Survivors scattered.  Do they all link back up?  Was that the last we see of some characters even though they escaped?

Also, we never saw gov get killed.  Even money mom-in-shock gunned herself in front of him rather than sitting herself.

Yes, this was annoying.  Oh hey, we want the prison because it's safe, but we just destroyed all of the gates and are in the process of destroying the prison walls.

Otherwise,  :excited: for the next half -- completely separate stories now, all with minimal ammo and supplies.  Should make for a lot more tension.

I actual lol'ed when the Carol's girls killed those 2 people.

I don't feel like the baby is dead, that seems like a good feel-good moment on the future.

That episode left my jaw open, so many unexpected deaths. Probably my favorite mid-season finale so far.

Also, we never saw gov get killed.  Even money mom-in-shock gunned herself in front of him rather than sitting herself.

Wait I thought she blasted him in the head

Shot to the head was suggested...but never seen.

She clearly shot him in the face. If she didn't, he was ran through with a sword and had dozens of walkers around him... He's dead. That's what the foot crushing the chess piece meant.

Also, the group that the Governor sure did convince that camp really quickly....."hey guys, let's take a rough ridin' camp and go displace a bunch of other humans you have never met and who have never wronged you."

Yeah that part was really stupid.

I don't think Rick finished explaining to Tyrese why the rat killer and person killer were two different people (interrupted by tank).  Would if Tyrese finds out the girl killed the rats thus making him believe they also killed the people?  Will Tyrese go nuts on the girl(s)?   :horrorsurprise:

Or right before Tyrese is about to go nuts on the girl Carol steps in and tells him the truth?

when the kids saved Tyrese, he said that "we better get going" or something and they ran off to the right.  He yelled, "hey, your going the wrong way, it's this way" or something, then ran the wrong way after them.  The bus basically left immediately after that.  Assuming there are at least four groups of ppl separated.  1. rick, 2. Alcoholic Army Medic, Maggie, and crew, 3. bus ppl, 4. Tyrese and the psycho kids.  Maybe a 5th with Daryl.  Don't remember where he ended up in all this.

I know you can't rule anything out unless the character is shown to be dead on screen, but she was strapped into a carrier and left unattended while a herd of walkers and some bad guys stormed the prison. Add all of the fresh blood seen in the carrier later on to that. You really think she made it? Hold out hope if you want, but we spent an entire season looking for a five year old, who was walkerfied, and right under our noses.

I don't think it will ever expressly be addressed because the viewing fanbase would have a hardcore meltdown.

Speaking from experience, this is not true. Baby carriers are heavy and awkward as eff to lug around for any significant distance, let alone run with one. Now if they were smart enough to have a compatible latch-in jogging stroller handy, that's a different matter entirely.

Guys that chick totally blew the governor's head off.  He's dead. 

Also, the baby is alive.  Remember there were two little girls carrying the baby seat?  That's tough...two people for one baby.  I think when the girls went back to get the guns they took the baby out of the seat, hid her maybe.  I think the blood is just a red herring.  Makes it look more gruesome and dramatic.  The baby was collected and is alive, probably with the little girls.

I really hope it isn't all about the baby, tho

Where the eff did Michonne go. She stabbed the governor for Rick and then said "eff this" and was not seen for the rest of the episode.

This is a serious deep inner conflict for me

For me, it's like watching the Royals.  I so want them to be good, even in years when I know they completely suck and have absolutely no shot at the playoffs.  I still watch and hope they will improve over the course of the season.  And, when they don't improve, I blog about why I'm so frustrated that they aren't improving. 

It's like that with Walking Dead.  I want the show to be good, because I love the idea of the show.  So much potential.  Such a terrible show.

Oh also, I didn't realize Walkers could become weak.  You know, for a breed that can basically survive any physical trauma, save head removal, it seems kind of weird that they can run low on energy or get worn out.  Seems like all Walkers would be more worn out than the one barricaded in the shop, ya know, because they're always hungry and walking around 24/7.

Obv. that the girl wasn't going to kill Judith -- they weren't going to save her character only to kill her off 2 minutes later.  Still have to have some emotional scene later on when Rick realizes she's still alive.

Hopefully the new group coming next week doesn't turn into another Governor's group vs. Rick's group.

Finally got around to watching it, it was alright. Rick and Carl are a major storyline so I'm glad they got their own full episode and this one caught up the rest. I heard or read about the introduction of new characters, will be interesting to see how they impact everything. What I think is going to happen is everyone but Rick, Carl, and Michonne will eventually end up in the same group. Wonder if they will all be like this split or if the upcoming will include all groups in the same episode.

What would be AWESOME is if this new fella and his crew are just like the Gov'na and his crew.  And the next 2 seasons can be about disagreements and minor altercations between these two small groups of people in the same area of rural Atlanta that the rest of the show has taken place.  But instead of a prison, maybe it would be exciting if the next 2 seasons were staged in a hospital about a quarter mile down the road from the prison.  Oh, and add in some zombies for a breath of suspense from time to time.  Although at this point, considering a screw driver or garden spade will generally do the trick, anybody who gets bitten by a walker is basically a huge dumbass.

Yeah, his arrow supply must be dwindling.  I'm sure there's a neighborhood Dick's somewhere closeby where he could restock, though.  One of the conveniences of never leaving their little pocket in suburban Atlanta.

They found some railroad tracks bro

I thought Maggie's voice sounded really weird in the last episode. Did her accent get more twangy or something?

Her and the guy that plays Rick are British.  I wonder if it's easier for them do American southern accent because it hides the British accent?

Maybe I'm the only one, but I had no idea those two were British until I saw the behind-the-scenes spot the other day.  Would explain why they sound so weird. 

It was like she slipped out of accent for that scene by the bus but they never went back to reshoot the scene.

Maybe they'll follow the tracks to somewhere cool, like Buckhead, and take up residence in some ritzy gated community.

I enjoyed last episode.  I like how they are slowly developing the characters, and focusing on just a few at a time (kind of like Lost did).  Caaaaaarrrl talked more in the last episode than he probably has since the show started.  We are getting to know Michonne and I really like her character.  Last episode really showed more than ever how people are fighting two wars at once (zombies and humanity) with the strangers in the house and Rick under the bed.  Rick took shelter from the zombies, but that didn't stop non-zombie dudes with assault rifles barging in.  The scientist cracked me up and reminded me of some of the engineers in my class (they would also tell you that they are smarter).

Ok, I am officially caught up on Walking Dead.  took me about 10 days total, most of the work was put in on hungover Sundays. 
Carl needs to stop walking backwards in front of Zombies, has gotten his dumbass in trouble a couple of times.
Rick heals unbelievably fast and his beard grows extremely slow and perfect.
Glad Shane was killed.
Andrea had me hating her for the first two seasons but then she seemed to finally figure it out and be helpful.
Glad Michonne was the one to kill the Governer, though I figured Rick would have been able to handle him much easier. 
Curious to see what is at the end of these train tracks, cant imagine there is actually a decent place.  Would seem like Governer and others would have discovered the tracks in their missions out previously and tried to go destroy the place. 
The "scientist" has a great mullett.  I almost believe that he actually was talking to DC since sgt flattop doesnt seem like one that would be able to convincingly lie to Glenn.  Or he is just so tricky that everyone believes what he is saying.  Cant imagine why he would try to go to Washington though, seems like midwest would be the best mix of weather, crop land, lack of people, and guns to fend off the zombies. 
The scene when Rick finally finds Judith will probably be terrible, drawn out, and boring.  Hopefully there is a good fight afterwards with some walkers to make up for it.

So this crew of psychos in the last episode that comes to the house. One of them strangles a dude because he won't give up a bed - then leaves the body at the foot of the bed to take a nap? :dunno:

I did appreciate the scene where Michonne finds the pink little girls room with the bodies. Helps to ground the show with a realistic reminder of the tragedy that occurred.

Abraham doesn't really seem all that smart -- has the phyical tools to survive, but needs someone to lead him.  Mullet guy would be lying to Abraham.

I just assumed he was the one that came back as a zombie and attacked the other guys when rick was hiding by the porch and the guy ran in to try and save people.  Unless it was the one Rick strangled?  But that seems unlikely being in a bathroom like that.  Yes he cracked the door open, but it seems like most of the walkers would have run into the door and locked themselves in

Agreed. Should not even rate as any kind of drink. Have to forgive Beth on this one, tho, because she was a drinking rookie. Only thing she could find...guess it was a pretty poor country club bar.

Loved it.  That entire episode was around 2 characters.  I now understand Beth and can have an emotional connection with her character.  What she has been through...what she has seen....what she has missed.  We all knew Daryl was rough, but in-the-sticks rough not so much.  I mean the guy hasn't been outside the state of Georgia.  Two people from completely different lifestyles coming together in this new, survival-mode lifestyle.  They are equal.

The scientist character has to be the least in-depth character ever on TV, even if he was only on for a couple of minutes so far. 

Scientist: Monotone, no personality, smarter than everybody else, has no discernible skills outside of science.  Learn to use a gun in the zombie apocalypse? Nope.

It is like he was written for by a bitter high school jock.

The thing I didn't like about this episode compared to the governor episodes and even the Carl/Michonne episodes was that we didn't really learn anything new (or at least that already seemed obvious).

Governor's character seemed to develop, and Michonne got a lot more backstory including why she's sticking with the group now.

This episode?  We learned that Daryl had a terrible childhood while Beth was sheltered.  And Daryl cares/cared about the group.  Nobody really transformed from who they already were.

Rest of the episodes this half have been good tho

Unless he created the disease that started the Zombie Apocalypse because everyone was a jerk to him and thought he was an uninteresting nerd.  He had his fun and now he is ready to stop the disease but needs help getting to DC because he is so smart he is directionally challenged and incapable of getting there himself.

Agreed. The scene with Daryl and the dudes who find him concerned me a bit...it suggests IMO that, without Beth, he's reverting to the type of crowd he ran with before everything went to crap. That said, I think he's the craftiest of all the characters and will play those guys and win.

I've heard gripes that the past few episodes have been too slow, but I really like the development of some of the more minor characters. I really like Beth now because of the past 2 weeks. Who kidnapped her???
Could be those guys that found Darryl?

why would they be on foot if they had a car, though

out on patrol the next morning?  Park and go over to confront him?  Just kind of seemed like the type of rapey guys that would kipnap a girl maybe?

take the corl/rick episodes and the tyreese/carol episodes out of this half season and it's been a decent show.

I'm enjoying the character development.  Sadly, they should have done this more in Season 1 and 2. 

I also think they are implementing scenes and emotions through music better than they have in the past.

My favorite episode in recent memory.  Yes the show has kind of slowed to a crawl to develop the characters but it is better to do it now than just ignore it like they did in the first few seasons.  Creating the smaller groups was a good way to do it with such a large ensemble cast.  Tyreese forgiving Carol was kind of lame, but was always what was going to happen.  Carol is the only one that faces moral decisions and does things that are questionable.  Everybody else tries to live like a saint in an age when few saints would survive.

That's what I thought.  And their parents were dead already, right?

It was sad seeing a little girl killed, for sure but she was obviously gonzo anyway.

I don't get how Tyreese stays so chubby.  maybe that is just me being cynical.

And then Carol promised to take care of them.  You'd really have to have ignored the first half of the season to not have seen these two girls' involvement and why they are important.  I just can't see how that baby is surviving at this point.  Do they have that much formula all stuffed into one separate bag?

Cannibal seems like the obvious one, though still a good plot element that hasn't been explored.  I'm thinking like a Crucible-esq pushy communal living.  Like "You churn that butter or to the stocks with you!"

1. Have you ever tried to eat like 10 people in 1 sitting? The cannibals keep them in the rail car like cattle.
2. Stopped about 20 miles down the road to shed some dead weight, currently headed to terminus to save the day. (No way tyrese just strolls in like the first group.
3. She gone

Rick just tore out a guy's throat with his teeth.   :Wha:

"Silence of the Lambs" was obviously one of Rick's favorite flicks before everything went to crap. He learned well. Hannibal Lecter would be proud of Rick's boss throat chew.

Maybe we need a new emoticon depicting throat chews?

I don't think they ask a group a question, wait for a response, and then spit out a line that bad.  Unless they are just rough ridin' with people.

Tyrese is going to come save the day right?  Maybe he somehow leads a bunch of Walkers to Terminus and they overtake the city but everyone is safe in the railcar.  I really have no idea where this show is going but if Rick is in charge nobody will eff with the group.

If Terminus is cannibals, I don't understand the set up.  You would have to eat the people quick.  Otherwise you are wasting food to fatten them up and why not just eat the food.  If you don't feed them there isn't much meat.  I would think people have a 3 day shelf life if you want them somewhere near their prime.

You only want to butcher them whenever you are out of meat. You would only have to toss your table scraps into the train car to keep them alive until you are ready for them.

I would think the key would be steady flow of new people, which maybe they get.  They seem to have electricity.  I would think you butcher them early while they are still at their meatiest and preserve the meat in a freezer.

Yup, they have electricity but they don't have the ability to play a radio broadcast on a loop so that old lady has to sit there and say "Those who arrive survive" over and over again.  This show man, it goes full Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!) every week but I'm hooked for life anyway.

This.  it just makes me so angry.  but i keep watching.  i've nobody to blame but myself.  i know this. 

i mean, start to finish, the finale was just plain terrible.

couple questions about terminus.  the horribly inaccurate shooting was intentional, no?  like, it was a highly organized way of guiding them to the boxcar?  Also, what was the story with the leader making them walk one-by-one to the boxcar and line up in front of it before they could enter?  just a few of a season-full of head scratchers.

Yes,the shooting was intentionally bad in order to "herd" them towards the box car.  As opposed to other gun battles where the bad guys are just plain terrible shots.  I have no idea what the significance of lining them up one by one was for.

They basically spent 0% of the time actually scouting the situation out.  I'm shocked they didn't take note of the population before heading in.  Seems like a huge contradiction to what those people would actually do.

The horrible shooting guiding them to the open area was supposed to mirror Rick's snare trap from the beginning of the episode.

Lining up one by one was probably just done to show control.

I do not understand why they know that they can make themselves invisible to zombies by smearing zombie juice on their arms, or by putting jawless/armless zombie on a dog leash, and yet they do not do it.

I also do not understand why, after dealing with first paradise city that turns out to be run by maniac governor, so many of them couldn't wait to rush to the next paradise city on the map

And yet, I watch

The problem is that the zombies are so stupid and ineffective that the people basically need to be morons in order for the show to have any suspense. You know those cheesy horror flicks where the dumbass hot chick just can't seem to get away from the knife wielding fiend that can't run or jump? That's every character in this show except uglier.

They spent the last half of last season getting to Terminus and were there for all of 1 episode before they were done with it.  I do like how they showed a little bit on how those people became the bad guys.

The remaining terminus guys are the new bad guys, I bet.  Rick shot the main guy in the leg before he fell from sight, the two guys next to the main guy didn't get shot, and Tyrese said he killed that one guy, but I bet he just knocked him out.

So, if I have this right, they used to be good guys - then they were attacked/imprisoned/raped/etc - so that naturally led to them becoming... cannibals? I mean, I totally could see them becoming bad guys themselves - but cannibals, huh? Ok.

And then the trough scene. Ok, the first guy bites it, couldn't see that coming. But then the rest of them just keep kneeling there? And then the second guy gets it, and the rest just... keep kneeling there? Because their hands and feet were zip tied, but they weren't lashed in place? And then Glenn's about to bite it, and Rick's got that boxcar shank... and they just sit there? Is there a reasonable explanation for this, or this just another example of mind numbingly shitty "Walking Dead writing" - kind of like the amazing transformation of the Terminus folks from do-gooders to cannibals?

Other than those things, it was a pretty entertaining episode. The bit with Tyreese and the Terminus dude was actually believable. Carol was not annoying as all fuckall for a change, and the camo bit was interesting. Hardly any Corl.

So I thought Bob might have been bitten/scratched by a walker in the Food Drive basement.  He seemed to have a gimp and was being very sentimental before walking out of the church.  He broke down crying before he got whacked over the head by the cannibals.  I hope Morgan saves the group from these awful Terminus cannibal people.

Before the episode last night I was going to post in here on who everyone thought would be the first character out of the group to die.  Bob is currently winning the first-to-die race for this season.  Did I imagine it or was the guy Tyreese punched (who we thought was dead) alive and with the rest of the Terminus group that took Bob?

Also, if Bob was bitten or scratched on the leg, was it the leg the Terminus group chopped off?  Did they do him a favor and actually save Bob by cooking up a Bob-chop?

I thought Bob was bitten too for the same reasons.  Maybe if a person is infected and eaten before turning, it creates a new type of zombie.   :dunno:

The Detroit guy was def part of the group.

You are correct, WNk.  I thought the same thing about Bob being bitten/scratched since he had a noticeable limp as he was walking down the aisle of the church and outside.  Just like when Hershel got bit they were able to save him by whacking off his leg.

The only problem I have with that is when it happened to Hershel they did it almost immediately but with Bob there was a window of several hours before having his leg whacked.

Also, degenerate Tigers fan is still alive.

However, would they have had to eat Bob leg rare or even medium rare to get Zombie coodies ?  Seems like well done Bob leg would kill Zombie coodies.

I thought he was bitten at first, but then I had a thought that he was going crazy because everyone was drinking the communion wine and he has an issue with alcohol. Pretty sure it's him being bitten, especially after getting eaten, but it was just a thought.

Post by: K-S-U-Wildcats! on October 22, 2014, 02:08:02 PM
I thought last night's episode was actually pretty good. It was devoted almost entirely to character development and, while it often came off as a bit contrived, at least they're trying. In particular, Rick's scene with Corl was pretty good, at least until Corl started talking.

Gabriel, while as one-dimensional as pretty much every other character in the show, should be at least somewhat entertaining when he ultimately betrays the group or redeems himself.

The zombies were extra gooey and nasty looking. Not sure why Rick and crew thought it would be a good idea to descend into the basement to fight them hand-to-hand rather than bludgeon them from above - I guess 'cause they had to for action and stuff.

The Bob scene at the end is an interesting twist and should hopefully lead to something good with the Terminus gang - hopefully soon. The Garrett soliloquys are already annoying. We get it. You used to be good, then you turned into a cannibal, it seems like a bit of a jump and you explaining it over and over again isn't making it more believable.

Reminded me of that scene from The Road, except that The Road is much darker and scarier than Walking Dead without a single zombie.

To the first point, the risk is that it would make them sick and they would die. When you get bit you just get a really bad fever and then die, the zombie state is only loosely related.

Right. The cannibalsim thing made sense in The Road where everything was dead. But in Walking Dead it's just the opposite. They've probably got a huge deer overpopulation problem by now that needs to be taken care of.

I don't know. I'd think hordes of zombies would be just as damaging to the animal population as the now missing hunters would be.  Just the brute force of a horde of zombies would knock down (maybe trap without meaning to) deer.

I think we're onto something here. Perhaps the best way to stop the zombie plague is with a gangbusters team of crack dental hygienists. Pearly white zombie teeth spread no disease.  Guess that doesn't really stop the saliva though.

I thought it was already "common knowledge" that only the biting is dangerous, for whatever reason. I thought that was the whole reason for Michone removing the teeth of her pets. Made them non-agressive and not dangerous.

I understand how it makes them non dangerous, but why did it cause them to be non-aggressive?  Wouldn't a zombie with no lower jaw just try to gum you to death?

never mind, did some wiki reading.  apparently if they lose the ability to feed, they lose the desire.

apparently the danger from biting is from infection and a zombie's dirty mouth.  Whatever everyone has that zombies them when they die, also has weakened everyone's immune system.

Sort of the opposite, actually. The writers have a serious case of ADHD mixed with outright stupidity. The ADHD: Terminus crew shows up last episode, they eat Bob's leg - oohh, it's "tainted meat" what's gonna happen?! Answer: nothing. The good guys slaughter them in the very next episode. There's no drama, no suspense, no story development - just garbage writing.

The stupidity: Terminus crew brings Bob back to the church, who proceeds to tell the good guys exactly where the bad guys are camped. Naturally, the good guys see nothing suspicious about this, and decide it will be a wonderful idea to sneak over to the school. Only, wait, they didn't fall for it after all, returning to the church to slaughter the bad guys? The writers provide no explanation for the head fake to the audience. It would have been easy to do, something along the lines of "our whole planning session was a lie because we couldn't trust Gabriel" - but the writers are too lazy/stupid for that.

Great episode!  I'm also glad they didn't drag on with the Termites and I'm impressed they offed them so fast.  Rick!!!  (https://goemaw.com/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.sherv.net%2Fcm%2Femoticons%2Ffighting%2Fsmiley-with-sword.gif&hash=618b02628f5374016c5a811efe7afd4605a8be9c)

This season is very fast-paced, and I hope it continues. 

Who did Daryl bring back?  Why did he come from the woods?  Why did he not look happy when Michonne asked where Carol was?  Who is with Daryl?

Looks like next week we will see a lot of Beth.  The preview looked like the hospital she was in was clean, but the outside it looked rough.  So I don't think it was a flashback. 

This season has me wanting more!  :Woohoo:

Bob is gone.  Who will be the next member of the group to die?  I want to say either Rosita or Tara.

Bet they focus on Beth for an episode, then Daryl's rescue attempt for another episode. 

I was glad they dealt with the Terminus people quickly in the show, rather than dragging it out across 1/2 a season, but they could have thrown in a little dialogue to help it along.  "Welp, we're all going to die soon anyway, may as well try to extract some revenge".  Also, Rick's group has been in survival mode for years now, but they're staying in a church where they don't completely trust the pastor, and they don't have anyone on lookout?  "Oh look, someone's on the ground outside."

Morgan's coming back at some point too -- they showed him a couple of episodes ago, but haven't since.

But we did get Garret's 4th of 5th speech about how "we used to be good." I'm glad they cleared that up for us.

Also, Rick's group has been in survival mode for years now, but they're staying in a church where they don't completely trust the pastor, and they don't have anyone on lookout?  "Oh look, someone's on the ground outside."

True, but actually a fairly minor example of TWD stupidity, relatively speaking.

i finally got to watch this past episode and i really enjoyed it.  i also like fast past action and there has been relatively no carrrrrrrrrllllllllllll so far this season which is awesome.  im glad they just offed those douchebags from terminus and love that rick got to use that sword thing.  one of the main things that has always pissed me off is when someone dies they wait until they die and then the 'bie that comes back almost gets the one that was taking care of them.  good to see sasha just say her goodbye then end it.

i think they will show a lot of the dc people because glenn and maggie are two of the bigger characters, and if their part was done i would have thought they would have killed them off rather than them just leave.  im glad that daryl made it back and we finally get to see what happened to beth.  i would enjoy being back in a city for a bit instead of the rain forest that apparently exists in georgia.  overall i liked this episode a lot and cant wait for the next one.

I bet.  I doubt they show Beth basically sacrificing herself to get him out just to have him go away.  Also, if that is the case, this gives Rick's crew the exact knowledge of where Beth and Carol are and has them coming back into Atlanta to get them.  The original epi's with Rick in Atlanta were super awesome.   I basically can't wait for that to happen.

Dawn seems pretty understanding towards Beth given how Beth tried to kill her with zombies.  No idea why you would keep her around.  Agree that Beth and doctor make it back to the group.  Maybe Noah and Darryl break Carol/Beth/Doc out?

I think Daryl finds Noah and takes him back to Rick's camp to get the others to break them out (Noah was also injured).  Hard telling how many people are at Dawn's camp but there could be a lot (I remember seeing sniper guards on the roof).  Either way we are going to see some crazy crap in Apocalyptic Atlanta and I'm very excited about it.

How much time has elapsed since the zombie outbreak? I'm surprised they're still anywhere close to Atlanta. Seems like they walked a lot to get to Terminus, but hey, we're back in fuckin' Atlanta! Speaking of which, I wonder if the Atlanta airport got hit by the outbreak, or if everyone there is still just waiting around for their delayed flights, like usual.

Really looking forward to it.  Though, from the previews from last week it looked like we wouldn't learn much more about the hospital this week and it would instead focus on the group headed to DC.  The DC bound group is my least favorite story line, so I hope that isn't the case.....BUT, maybe they will spice that group up.

Good episode.  I felt like something like this was bound to happen, but I didn't think he was making it all up just to feel relevant.  I thought maybe he wasn't a scientist but smart enough to know how to fix it.  I have no idea where the show is going now except they need to break out Beth and Carol.  Maybe after that they still head to DC cause they think that is the best option?

This was one of the better episodes since season 1. This show might be finally turning a corner?

The ginger's backstory was brief but good. So his family left him because they were terrified of his brutality? He's a man who needed a mission. He accepted mullet's story hook, line, and sinker because it's what he needed. Still doesn't explain everyone else buying into such a stupid story, but whatever - it's reasonable to assume that people will do some pretty irrational stuff in a zombie apocalypse.

So next up should be rescuing Carol and Beth, I guess, and then who knows from there.

That's pretty weird, to split because your husband and father kicks too much ass during a zombie apocalypse?  Like, I am sure he was already a pretty violent guy and was a soldier and those kids were pretty old so his freak outs would be old news by then.  Really a weird time to decide you want a divorce.

Dealing with a lack of hope should be a major theme.  A miracle cure represents a potential end to the series, even if they dick around getting him there, and so I didn't think it could be real.  Also, the whole concept was ridiculous awful.  Glad they ended it.  Also, the spinoff is supposed to take place up north so I think they are keeping these guys in the south.  I'll bet they keep the two main groups totally separate and then have very minor characters show up in both so people can giggle and think they found something.

Didn't go back to look or anything, but I am pretty sure the ppl he killed with that soup can(lol, btw) were not zombies.  This would tie into his speech to Glenn about how killing other ppl used to be the hardest thing, and now it is the easiest thing in the world.  So, I took it that the zombo thing just started, and he took out 5 perfectly healthy ppl.  His fam seemed to not be in the survive at all costs mode and thought him a monster for it.

Yeah - that was my take also. He was killing other people for food in the grocery store right after the outbreak started. That's why there was still food in the grocery store, which would probably be the first place to be scoured clean.

My hunch, though, is that the ginger's marriage was already pretty rocky. Smashing someone's face in with a soup can is typically a symptom of a bad marriage, not the cause.

Didn't go back to look or anything, but I am pretty sure the ppl he killed with that soup can(lol, btw) were not zombies.  This would tie into his speech to Glenn about how killing other ppl used to be the hardest thing, and now it is the easiest thing in the world.  So, I took it that the zombo thing just started, and he took out 5 perfectly healthy ppl.  His fam seemed to not be in the survive at all costs mode and thought him a monster for it.

Yeah - that was my take also. He was killing other people for food in the grocery store right after the outbreak started. That's why there was still food in the grocery store, which would probably be the first place to be scoured clean.

My hunch, though, is that the ginger's marriage was already pretty rocky. Smashing someone's face in with a soup can is typically a symptom of a bad marriage, not the cause.

I guessssss, but still.  weird time for a woman to say "I'll take my chances with 2 kids out there rather than stay with a guy who is willing to beat people to death so we can eat"

I mean, he loved them enough to kill himself once they left.  He is a ginger pitbull who freaks out on other kids but is willing to die for his owners.  You don't get rid of that thing when the S hits the fan.  But other wise good epi except for him boning the girl.  That's annoying.

This was one of the better episodes since season 1. This show might be finally turning a corner?

The ginger's backstory was brief but good. So his family left him because they were terrified of his brutality? He's a man who needed a mission. He accepted mullet's story hook, line, and sinker because it's what he needed. Still doesn't explain everyone else buying into such a stupid story, but whatever - it's reasonable to assume that people will do some pretty irrational stuff in a zombie apocalypse.

So next up should be rescuing Carol and Beth, I guess, and then who knows from there.

True. The problem is the show's current pacing. If they had spent more than 2 minutes developing his backstory, showing all the other things he probably did to scare his family off, it might have made more sense. But the current show runners / writers have a really bad habit of taking good ideas and rushing through them to quick conclusions. It's like they've overcompensated for the snail pace of seasons 2 and 3 at the farm/prison.

The Governor becomes "Brian" for two or three episodes, then he's the same flat Governor again. Terminus was a good concept... wrapped up in 2 or 3 episodes. The potential consequences of eating zombie meat was an interesting idea... nullified the very next episode. I'm guessing Beth and Carol will be rescued next week? After 2 episodes.

Adding on to KSUW's comment about finishing a storyline too quickly.....I was disappointed in this episode.  I think we all pretty much suspected Eugene of being a fraud but the "Going to DC" storyline could have literally taken the show in a different direction.  Now that storyline is done so of course Abraham's group will make their way back to Rick's group and they can sit around a campfire and say Yup, here we still are in Georgia doing the same crap.

It's an abbreviated version of what happened in the comics. Wife is actually ex wife and the doods ginger killed had raped her. Wife and kids left after the saw him kill 3 people with a soup can only to get eaten by zombies 10 ft from the door.

This is something that probably should have been explained with 2-3 lines of dialogue.  Apparently they explained on the talking dead that they had been neighbors before the outbreak who raped the wife and daughter while Abraham was out scavenging.  They really shouldn't have to rely on the post-episode show to fill in the gaps.  I finished watching the episode thinking they had maybe broken in and tried to steal from the group.

Another pretty decent episode. I don't know why city is better but it just is. Flashbacks are a good idea for character dev, but these short flashbacks really didn't add anything. Daryl/Carol soul searching also got annoying. The writing isn't good enough to carry that kind of drama. It just ends up cheasy.

But my only two complaints for the "no rational person would do that" file are (1) jumping into and moving to the front of the teetering ambulance, while zombies closed in no less, and (2) they first encounter the black kid farther away from the hospital - then meet up again across the street from the hospital - when the black kid should have been moving the other way. Makes no sense.

The negotiation is going to get at least one of the group killed, probably Carol.

i have stayed away from this thread because i hadnt seen the episode until now.  couple of things, that priest is gonna be zombie brunch if he keeps running away and doesnt go back, backwoods seems like he is going to be fine, have you guys ever knelt down on concrete before? there is no rough ridin' way abraham would be able to kneel down like that all day long, there is just no way.  we all knew this and from knowing RD you just cant trust cops, period, that douchebag that made sasha hit her head is going to rough ridin' get it.

i am scared for the episode next week and who is going to die, from that article i think its gonna be both carol and beth, which is a shame because i like both their characters, if one had to live tho i would want carol cuz she was one of the originals.  like everyone has already said tho this episode was pretty shitty but it was necessary to get all the story lines built up for the mid season finale next week.

Wtf is going on with the priest

He was in the woods, away from the church, when we first met him. Now, he's back in the woods, despite his obvious inability to kill zombies. Something irresistable draws him into the woods...be interesting to see what it is.

It seems that they've started focusing more on Beth and less on Carol (short of the group making peace with her) so I assume Carol has to go.  Beth would surprise me.

I also think Carol is going to be the one who dies.  She has been through the emotional gauntlet in response to what has happened to her and what she has done herself.  Her peace might only be death.  I have a feeling she saves the group one final time by sacrificing herself.

Meanwhile, that neat new character Gabriel is just another flat boring characature - a little bitch as it turns out. The magic schoolbus/fire truck is back after a whopping two episodes?

That was a pretty good fall season finale.  Sad to see Beth go.  May her character RIP.   :cry:

The producer/creator/writer guy mentioned on Talking Dead how the show is really going to pick up pace and go directions the show has never been.  Also hinted (if people have read the comics) that the show will probably start getting out of the Atlanta, Georgia region (finally!). 

At the end, they showed a clip of Morgan following the tree marks and ending up at the church.  Very curious to see if he is trying to catch up to join them or if he is still crazy.  Also he seems to be the only one we know of that actually understands the tree markings meanings.

That was really odd.  The ~30 second trailer for the spring season ended, followed by 2 minutes of Morgan in the current season.  He found the school before the pastor because the doors were still shut, but found the church after they'd already left for the hospital.

Eventually he's got to catch up to the main group, right?


Also, surprised they killed off Beth, rather than Carol -- seemed like Carol's story was more or less done.

So, one kinda gap that hasn't really been addressed by the show is about the infection

So, per all zombie films, if you get bitten and survive, you'll slowly become a zombie at some point.  Alright i'm on board.

[SPOILERS]
Now, TWD has also established that the infection is also dormant in everyone's system all the time.  As demonstrated a few different times, if you die a non-walker death and find yourself retaining a functional central nervous system: you will become the walking dead.

Interesting premise, makes for some good story lines, however this begs the questions: what about being bit causes you to turn?  You're already infected, what's the bite doing?   If its just the physical agitation, people have been afflicted in the show to similar wounds and not turned (e.g being shot, stabbed, lacerated...)

Theres an awful lot of limbs being hacked off in this show for it not even to be discussed.

Post by: HerrSonntag on February 08, 2015, 09:17:44 PM
But, infections tho.  If you have it, and you get dosed again you're still infected.

Could be making the case that its like only a terminal dose in concentrated amounts, like saliva.  But i dunno, it seems spurious to me.

When you get bit you become sick and get an incredibly high fever and die. Then turn into a walker. That is made abundantly clear.

Exactly!  If its a dormant infection why does only a bite trigger it?  Why doesn't a gunshot wound or getting sick with whatever was going around the prison trigger a zombie fever death?

I think it showed a lot of them have lost hope and are accepting that the world is what it is and that they shouldn't expect anything else from it.  Glen and Rick's conversation basically said that shitty stuff is going to happen and it isn't shitty, it just is what happens and that they own that now. 

Tyreese(sp) dying is the last purely positive person dying.  They just got out of their own way to make this second half of the season dark.

I agree. They no longer have a character that is going to preach about "staying human" and "not losing who you are" which should open it up to some gruesome decision making. The basic formula of the show so far is bringing on a new person to fill that role after the last one has died ie. after Dale died we got Hershel, after Hershel died Tyreese filled that void. So either expect a replacement (possibly Father Gabriel?) or the show is finally breaking the mold on this one.

I was confused by that at first too, but I think maybe it was supposed to be a trap? They removed their arms and legs and then tossed all the torsos into the back of a truck. Those were the random torsos that popped out when they ran into that truck towards the end of the episode. I think the marks on the wall were just to show that they died because of other humans, not because of walkers. . .thus signifying that they can never be safe anywhere.

Agreed. I had to defend it to a bunch of people I was watching it with. They just bitched about how it wasn't exciting enough. The popularity of the show is allowing the writers to do more character development and be more creative with their story structure, but it seems they are losing their fanbase that enjoys all the killins and such.

Well of course its not safe, at least it won't be for long if it is.  We still haven't seen any other people in the town.  They seemed to allude to how odd this is in the pictures.

Random guess - They are "at war" with some other group and wanted reinforcements :dunno: These guys are clearly not fighters so their job was to find help.  They saw Rick's group kicking ass and decided it was worth trying to recruit them.

I'm with you.  I initially thought it was speakers but it seemed like they are pushing too hard that the city is bad.  I bet they need soldiers to fight whoever is chopping people in half or the "wolves".  Maybe that was why the guy was scared to go down that other road initially.

Seems like a weird thing to use to lure people. Not sure everyone has the jaded view and thoughts that sound is the best litmus test of it being safe.

Would you really use batteries etc to create those sounds?  Have tons of watch guards to determine when to play it?

They did figure out how to listen in on conversations from a distance.  They seem like a smart bunch.  Maybe they created a local power source?  The only thing I've learned from watching this show is that a "safe-zone" really isn't safe.

the photos showed banks of solar panels

I'm thinking that the Wolves group is going to be a big part of what happens next. So a conflict is a very real possibility. We theorized last night that the child noises were played on a speaker because they overheard Rick saying that every place they arrived at was quiet.

I geeked out quite a bit when they said where they were going because I live in Alexandria.  :cool:

That would make sense.  That's got to be it, otherwise it would just be rinse and repeat.  New city, new bad guys, everyone dies, on the road again.  They probably aren't cannibals cause he had plenty of food and water.  They also started developing the two new guys characters a bit so it makes me think the main new guy might last awhile.

just finished it and i thought the same thing with the speakers.  another thought i had was rick was so overwhelmed that they finally got there it was just playing in his head.  from the previews for next week when he was narrating it seems like rick may be going nuts again like he did when lori died.

im also of the belief that whoever chopped those 'bies in half will probably make an appearance while they are in this town.

oh my who writes this stuff. "Guy is threatening to stab me in then neck BUT I'M NOT EATING A BITE OF APPLESAUCE BECAUSE MY MOMMY USED TO MAKE ME eat it to prove I am a man!"

Also I must not have been paying attention. When they drove the car into the zombies on the road where was the RV? I thought they were following each other.

Other theory (not mine I am just repeating) is that Alexandria is filled with gay couples (not that there's anything wrong with that) who escaped from DC ("the gayest place in America" according to the New York Times) and they need to audition some straight survivors to repopulate the planet.

Yeah that was pretty ridiculous, after the lead car acts as a zombie plow the larger heavier RV following directly behind them can't make it through.  Seems totally reasonable.

The explanation was supposed to be that the RV was trailing behind, saw the flare, and assumed that it was Glenn's car so went ahead to reach it.  Rick's group saw the flare too so they ran through the forest to get there.

Due to poor editing though, they showed the headlights of the RV in Glenn's car moments before he plowed into zombies, meaning they shouldn't have been that far apart.  One freaking line of dialogue ("we'll go first, if we run into trouble, we'll shoot the flare") would have fixed that entire mess.

Interesting development.  I think what Rick hinted at near the end of the episode is where the show is going to go.  I think Rick's group will end up taking over the town, and possibly making those who do not fit in leave the community.  They may also include those currently in Rick's group that do not want to adapt to the new lifestyle (Daryl). 

I skim through Talking Dead after Walking Dead, and they discussed how the Alexandria community was made up of only 7 houses, and the show built 7 new ones in the neighborhood (the ones they use).  Seems like this would be a good spot to settle down for a while right? 

I also love how Carol jumped into the roll of non-violent, community mother as soon as they walked through the gates.  Everyone not associated with their group will think this has always been Carol and that she doesn't have a dark, bad-ass side to her.

They released the synopsis for the hour and a half season finale:

Quote

Daryl finds himself in trouble while out on the run. Meanwhile, in Alexandria, Rick and his group continue to feel like outsiders as danger lurks near the gates.

I think Daryl is going to struggle the most with the idea of living in suburbia and that whomever the wolves are will attack the community. Still interested to see what the whole Morgan following the group storyline means.

I'm guessing Daryl's going to leave at some point in the next episode or two, but returns by the end of the season.

The struggle is how rick and crew perceives the others as weak and unable.  A good preview is the douche son getting punked by Glenn.  Take that times infinity and along with the struggle of rick to go ahead and take over vs wait and see but possibly putting everyone at risk in doing so, is probably the main theme going forward until the wolves come fully into play.  I don't think he takes over because doing so would basically end the show, unless he takes over and makes a huge mistake that loses everything for everyone and they take off again. 

As for the wolves, I also think the girl is a plant for the wolves and will have some dumbass struggle about letting them in vs liking Carl.  That has to be the reason she secretly leaves and comes back.  Earlier in the show, it is mentioned that anyone can check out their weapon and go out the gate when they want to, but that they have to check it back in when back inside.  If the girl can leave whenevs she wants, why else would she be climbing the fence to get out unless she doesn't want anyone knowing.  The Wolves will def be the reason something happens to either push rick over the take control edge or Rick's mistake that blows crap apart, imo. 

Also, Carol is totally going to be heavily involved in taking the place over, if that is what happens.

Wouldn't shock me if the girl was part of the group of 3 survivors who the congresswoman had to banish.  She'd be sneaking out to take them supplies.  And since they've been on the outside, they could've seen Rick hide the gun in the blender.

One thing to watch -- Alexandria is well stocked now, but they've been increasing their search range to 53 miles to get supplies.  That doesn't seem sustainable.

Although the show has tried not to mimic the comic book verbatim, there are some things that will happen just to keep the story consistent.  With what I read on-line the Alexandria Safe Zone is the longest resident for the group, so like with Herschel's farm and the prison, they may be there for a season or two. 

Also along the comic lines, Rick does take charge of the Alexandria Safe Zone  He was asked in the comics, but it sounds more intriguing if it is due to a hostile takeover.  But my money is on the group takes a reprieve from fighting walkers and allow some storylines to develop, which is what the producer said at the beginning of the season.

So what was Rick doing at the end of the show?  Kind of sensing that there was a zomb on the other side and that was his old life etc?

W=wolf.  Def. 

As for rick, the tug of war between Darryl and Michone is interesting.  The recruiting job for Darryl may sway him to that side and then it will be just Carrol.

Also, Sasha is def going to kill someone.  Something like the show opening up on her killing a zombo, then it snaps to her killing a kid or something and her PTSD'ey mind thought it was a zombo.

It's a definite hole in the story line, they can't plug it though.  A regular dead body wouldn't even last a summer in Georgia.

Yeah but regular dead bodies don't walk. Also, what happens in winter? Frozen stiff?

Well these aren't just regular dead bodies now, are they? Being able to walk was addressed in Season 1 by that guy at the CDC.  There's just enough brain power when a person comes back as a walker to make their bodies able to move.  You know, because science.

The effect of cold weather on zombies was covered quite nicely in the World War Z universe but not in this one so far.  Maybe this will be addressed now that they are in an area that has real winter weather as opposed to what Georgia has.

Agreed and they are seemingly showing them more decomposed at times. Never seen WWZ. Looks like the prequel LA walking dead should be out late summer. Hopefully is good

I wondered about the fake scientist too. Thought maybe he got taken out when I wasn't paying attention.

The thing with the horse, was the point supposed to be that when the humans tried to get close to it and domesticate it, it stopped running away so fast, so the next time the zombies came it didn't run away and instead became horsemeat? Meaning, this is what happens when you get soft Daryl?

When Sasha was out shooting picture frames at the start, did they show another guy walking around with a gun or did I imagine that? I think I imagined it. Was not motivated to rewind.

Eugene is in the trailer for the upcoming episode.  They've been expanding the cast for a while now without too many deaths, so now there are almost too many characters to follow.  It's at a point where they really need to thin it out some.

Odds for next Rick's group deaths:
Noah 3/2
Tara 2/1
Rosita 5/1
Sasha 15/1
Eugene 20/1
Maggie 30/1
Abraham 40/1
Glenn 40/1
Carol 80/1
Judith 99/1
Carl Nope
Rick Nope
Daryl Nope
Michonne Nope

Supposed to show that the horse wouldn't accept safety when offered, and ended up getting killed for it.  The horse was the Ghost of the Future Daryl.

I feel like there are only two possiblities.

1. He is scheming something and wants the groups to be at odds. (unlikely imo)
2. He has finally lost it. (most likely imo)

If he is scheming I can't see one thing he would gain. So It seems that returning to a civilized area has driven him back to extreme guilt. This means that perhaps he is making the selfish decision to turn on Rick's crew to redeem himself. Which is ludicrous and borderline insane considering what they have done for him.

The teaser for the next epi makes me think that this season could be about the possibility of total chaos btwn Rick's ppl, the Alexandria ppl, and the wolves.  Could completely scatter or reshuffle the groups with a bunch dying from all sides.   Could be a pretty great season all said and done.

Also, that Nicholas guy is going to kill Glen or Maggie.

As I gather, hes not nearly as unbearable in the graphic novel and im pretty sure hes the only character who never gets killed off.  So, enjoy.

They've been building the wolves thing for a while.  I really hope they don't completely resolve that in the final episode.

i kinda doubt they will even start to resolve it. the most we get is probably a cliffhanger reveal of who they are

Hope so, but I really wanted to see more of Terminus and the backstory there -- instead that entire arc was resolved in 2 episodes.

that tat face guy they let out of the storage container in terminus is still unaccounted for

pretty sure he was bit after he ran into Rick.

Something I completely missed in this past episode:


2 episodes ago Carol scared the crap out of Sam.

This episode Aaron and Daryl found the person tied to the tree with no one around to hear them screaming -- matching exactly what Carol described would happen to Sam

 :surprised:

I am confused as to why Maggie didn't tell anyone about what Father Gabriel said? That seems like a huge plot hole to me. Had Rick known about it, his righteous anger would be pointed elsewhere IMO.

The teaser for the next epi makes me think that this season could be about the possibility of total chaos btwn Rick's ppl, the Alexandria ppl, and the wolves.  Could completely scatter or reshuffle the groups with a bunch dying from all sides.   Could be a pretty great season all said and done.

Also, that Nicholas guy is going to kill Glen or Maggie.

This is a good bet.  Too much foreshadowing around Glen bringing him back.  One main group member is going down for sure.

With the build up of Morgan, The Wolves, The Alexandrians, and The Rickites, I thought there was going to be a huge four way clash of crap.  Nope.  It was a good epi, but more building for next season than anything else.  I mean, none of the main crazy was resolved.  Just a main drunk.  It was good, but not what I thought it would be. 

The Wolves are different/less than I thought they would be too.  I like the idea of them being more organized, but wished they were more of an apparent force.

The fact that they are assembling a herd that they are preparing to unleash is going to be a major story line at the outset of next season.

I think the finale broke from the redundant pattern they had established.  They left a few variables out there that give the story a number of different ways it could go. 

I get that they brought Morgan back to show how far Rick has lost it - but they seem to want to bring back S1 Morgan instead of paranoid crazy Morgan in that episode of S2 or whatever.  Tough for me to reconcile "all life is precious" with paranoid crazy.

Current Morgan is much more mellow than S1 Morgan, it seems.  He went the most crazy of a character we have seen, and has now swung all the way back to the opposite side of the spectrum.  I guess, he is the new Tyresse in that he will be the absolute conscience type of character?

Yep, great episode, but was expecting more resolution to some of the issues.

Really glad they didn't resolve the Wolves this season after all of the buildup.  It's still uncertain if the two wolves are the 2 guys kicked out of Alexandria (the woman tied up a few episodes ago could have been the third).

Also liked how they had Gabriel run into the walker with the noose around his neck to symbolize Judas.

My Theory-

The "Wolves" we see are just pledges (Hence the W carved in forehead) who tend their trap. The real "Wolves" Check back in every once in a while to see what kind of loot/intel they have recovered. These guys didn't even have a loaded gun.....more than likely these were the 2 that were kicked out of alexandria then found by the wolves.

The past few episodes are the best the show has been since Season 1. New writers?

The show is still pumping out 'tarded decisions and half-baked subplots, but less so than seasons past.
- Gabriel? They need to cut this character and storyline pronto - it's just stupid and boring.
- Sasha just wanders around wasting precious ammo. The others go looking for her, then proceed to waste even more ammo. Speaking of which, why does everybody in this show waste so much ammo? Where are they finding it all? And it's completely inconsistent. One moment they'll be grabbing hold of a zombie mosqito using a knife to conserve ammo, the next moment some dumbass is wasting a bullet to take down a solitary zombie from 50 feet - I guess just to show what a good shot they are.
- The show is still wasting time on scenes developing characters that they promptly kill and it makes no sense. Noah has this weird scene with the old Alexandria founder and it's all like "ok, so this guy's going to mentor Noah." Then Noah dies the very same episode and the old dude gets it two episodes later. What was the point? It's not misdirection - it's stupid.
- The town has one doctor with a drinking problem, and rather than lock him up and dry him out, they stick him in another house, continue to let him get loaded, and ultimately execute him. The one doctor. That's just stupid.

But on the positive side:
- The Rick/Alexandria dynamic has been good.
- Morgan finally paid off in a good way, and could be a great addition.
- Daryl and the other recruiter are pretty good.
- Carol's getting way better.
- Michone is actually getting watchable.
- The Wolves might be what the Terminus cannibals could have been if the writers hadn't screwed it up. Opening scene with Morgan was great. The trap was interesting. As first I thought it was just a booby trap, but I guess the point is to trap people in the car.

agree 100% on Gabriel, I usually ff through him waking around quivering.  I had the same thought on the doctor from the jump.  Does he have his own still?  Take away the booze, it would take like 2 minutes and I doubt he keeps slapping around his wife.  It made me angry

agree on these things.  especially Carol.  she was pretty sucky, but is now pretty cool. 

really glad Daryl wasn't killed.  Somebody posted about the horse being a foreshadowing of Daryl's own death - was pretty sure he was a goner in the last episode.  what a relief! 

show is great right now.  IMO, show was in a brusektballesque tailspin during the prison and governor seasons.  bad storylines, terrible characters, crap acting.  now, it's basically the opposite on all fronts.

Oh man can you imagine. Then Rick could have some creepy visions of her and Lori walking around holding hands or something.

It would be cool of next season the lady was all like "ha ha, I totally led you on to get you to kill my husband for me." But I doubt the show does anything like that. Would be too clever.

Are you just annoyed by what a waste of time it is, or are you also annoyed by the arbitrary waste of ammo? Seems like at least one character does that every episode, and it's annoying. Even the Terminus guy had it figured out - count your shells and conserve your damned ammo!

IMO I don't think ammo would really be that big of a deal??  You do raids everyday and your in the south?  Cities are used to supplying hundreds of thousands of people with ammo, go find any Cabelas, Pro Shop, sports store, or walmart and your set for years.

I did love the exact moment they reintroduced Morgan and Rick last night.  Especially because Morgan had just said something about how "all live is precious and should be valued", or something.
I think its an interesting dynamic to pit the two philosophies against one another.  You have Rick, advocating "taking care of problems" for good so they don't come back and bite you.  He wanted to deal with the doctor, Deanna didn't, Deanna's husband dies.  Morgan gets attacked by the Wolves, lets them live, and known good guy Red Poncho gets killed because of it.  This dichotomy could be further emphasized if the Wolves were started by the Alexandria exiles mentioned in the episode (The first guy fits one of the descriptions, really smart and crazy) and all the misery occurring beyond the walls is a result of Alexandria not taking care of their 3 problem residents.

Maybe I wasn't paying close attention but the 2 guys arriving at the trap were different than the two that attacked Morgan, correct?  Morgan put them in the car knocked out and made noise for a herd to come (hardly seems like letting them go?).

I'm thinking somebody's going to get really sick/hurt next season and then one of the townies will realize "gee, I kinda wish we hadn't killed our one doctor all so the sheriff could bang his wife." That would be an interesting revelation. Not to get too soap opera-y.

I did love the exact moment they reintroduced Morgan and Rick last night.  Especially because Morgan had just said something about how "all live is precious and should be valued", or something.
I think its an interesting dynamic to pit the two philosophies against one another.  You have Rick, advocating "taking care of problems" for good so they don't come back and bite you.  He wanted to deal with the doctor, Deanna didn't, Deanna's husband dies.  Morgan gets attacked by the Wolves, lets them live, and known good guy Red Poncho gets killed because of it.  This dichotomy could be further emphasized if the Wolves were started by the Alexandria exiles mentioned in the episode (The first guy fits one of the descriptions, really smart and crazy) and all the misery occurring beyond the walls is a result of Alexandria not taking care of their 3 problem residents.

Maybe I wasn't paying close attention but the 2 guys arriving at the trap were different than the two that attacked Morgan, correct?  Morgan put them in the car knocked out and made noise for a herd to come (hardly seems like letting them go?).

pretty sure they are same dudes.

Yeah, looked up photos.  It totally is the same people.

Something had to make Alexandria no longer safe. It would be too boring to have the whole season just Rick awkwardly trying to be dad to those kids so he can bone their mom. I'm glad the episode put that to rest a bit, at least that she isn't quite ready for a relationship with him after he shot her husband in the face.

If Rick bones her I will be very annoyed because he is awkward as F.  If I were Daryl I would be trying like hell to bone her.  When is Daryl going to get a lady friend?
Title: Re: The Walking Dead (official thread, 'clams not allowed)
Post by: Brock Landers on October 12, 2015, 01:42:36 PM
Puni is right, that plan was beyond ridiculously stupid. The walkers were contained within the quarry so there was no goddam reason whatsoever to let them all out.  What they should have done, since they're so good at building walls, is to build a new wall a little further up from where that semi was about to fall.

However, their incredible stupidity led to a cool action packed episode and more cool episodes to come.  The show sucks when nothing walker-related happens, we saw that when they were at Herschel's farm twiddling their thumbs and talking about feelings and stuff.

RIP Rusty Griswold

During the talking dead they had a segment where Michael Cudlitz who plays Abraham was going around and interviewing different actors about the upcoming season. When he was interviewing Danai Gurira who plays Michonne Norman Reedus who plays Daryl swept in and gave her a good long kiss. So, maybe Daryl and Michonne get it on this season?

What did you think about the episode last night?  The wolves attacking the town was pretty intense and unexpected.  I thought from the first episode that the horn might have come from someone in the town trying to sabotage their plan.

They are crazy.  He said he was freeing them. 

Also, the show took pains to show multiple wolves just repeatedly stabbing ppl over and over when they were obvsly already dead, while grinning about it and rubbing blood on their foreheads.  Crazy.

Wow that was a pretty intense episode.  The Wolves are a bunch of completely batshit crazy weirdos who will kill you and then keep hacking away for good measure.  I was thinking Carol's Wolf disguise might end up being her downfall but thankfully nope.

How did the Wolves know Morgan?  I assume they met up out in the woods previously.

Did you guys notice they seem to have dramatically increased the production value from last season? The quarry/semi CGI in the first epi was neat even if the plan and episode as a whole was beyond stupid. Also, finally some tall grass in the latest episode!

Last night was significantly better than the season premiere. They kept the terrible dialogue to a minimum and the plot was at least believable.

Aside from them being completely naive dumbasses, I can't recall there ever being an actual explanation as to why they constructed the wall in the most nonsensical way possible.

while it may be mathematically correct, that is one Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!) reason, and I imagine really has little effect on the space inside the walls.

A lot of the current theories are if he slid under the dumpster. I'm not sure if that is logical though.

It looks like next weeks hour and a half episode is going to be about Morgan which means that we'll probably have about 80 minutes of Morgan and that last 10 minutes will be Michonne arriving back in Alexandria and having to tell Maggie she isn't sure where Glenn is. Leaving all of us in suspense desperately wanting to know if Glenn and Rick survive.

Can we talk about the real issue with this season?  Everyone is scared to talk about it, I guess.

ShellShock and I talked about this a lot last night. You guys remember in like episode 3 of season 1 when they covered themselves in walker blood and walked around?  That could be how Glenn lives, cuz he gets all of Nicholas blood and junk all over him. idk, but I think he is gonna get out alive.  Also, idk how Rick is gonna get out of this

That's pretty much the same theory I came up with regarding Glenn.  Then again I'm still in the Denial stage of grief.  Deep down I suspect he may not have made it out and the only way we'll see him now is in flashbacks.

Only one problem with that idea.  How fast does "living blood" become "walker blood"? If Glenn is covered in Nic's blood, is he covered in fresh blood, and still look just as appetizing?

I'm not sure. The thing about it is tho they all already have the disease or virus, so idk that there really needs to be a change in the chemistry of their blood. I also think that's getting a bit more down to the science that isn't in the show.  I will also say walkers have eaten other walkers after they were already dead, so what I am really trying to say is I don't know

Would you guys really care if Glenn was dead? There is not one single character left who I would miss in the slightest except for maybe Rick and the mullet guy.

Anyway, Glenn's going to survive is some stupidly inexplicable way.

That tank sequence was one of the best of the show.  Maybe the best. 

Also, Daryl has done nothing this season.  I mean, I know it's because of his assigned role in the ride along, but he might as well be dead this year, so far.

There would be a bunch of pissed off women viewers, though.

Glenn would be a huge loss to me. Also, I no longer care that much about Rick.  The pressure of leading the group has turned him into an unlikeable weirdo.  Furthermore, he deserves to die for the complete stupidity of this plan to herd the walkers around.  Carol and Daryl are the people I would be most upset at losing right now.

I forgot about Daryl. I would miss him a little, but I did just completely forget about him. I'm mainly sticking with Rick because I like the actor and he's basically the guts of the whole show.

Also, if Glenn actually survives a moshpit of hundreds of zombies, that would be pretty laughably lame, right? I mean granted, this show has already reduced zombies to the danger level of, say, cattle, but come on.

They made it a point a couple of times to show him agonizing over his hand, not able to stop the bleeding, etc.  I predict something freaky will happen to his hand in the next episode or two.

Apparently Rick loses his hand in the comics. I believe that the governor is the one that cut it off, so this might be hinting at that. Not that we should be worried he would turn or something.

The sad thing to me about Glenn's death is poor Maggie. She has had to deal with losing everyone she has loved. And will either be a blubbering mess or become a stone hearted killer with no regards for her own life. Also I'd feel really sad for her.

Remember, everyone is infected with the zombie virus that kicks in once you die. You don't get infected by the blood. 

However, I do believe that the zombie bites lead to an infection (from the zombie saliva) that weakens you and makes you die quicker.  Don't think showering in zombie blood would have much affect (unless it affects open cuts or something)

Didn't Rick bite the throat out of a zombie once?

Not trying to hold a zombie show to a standard of consistency,  but they have addressed the zombie blood in their  eyes, mouths, open cuts, etc a lot in earlier seasons.

Not the greatest episode.  Maggie is pregnant as expected.  I'm definitely starting to think Glenn is alive and well.  Deanna is freaking me out.  She is starting to look like death.  I don't trust that teenage kid Ron.  I was afraid he was going to catch Rick macking on his mom and do something horrible.  I still think he is going to do something bad.

It happened so quickly I wasn't sure if it was glen or if it was Rick as he was running to the gate (that we saw last week)

it was def glenn, i stayed up and watched talking dead after into the badlands and they kind of touched on it.  i thought it at the time but it sounded like glenn, and the tone of his voice was def not rick. from those pictures of the set that ok_cat posted i could see glenn getting his divine intervention next week hopefully.

If he is to be believed, Norman Reedus (the guy who plays Daryl) said the voice was not Glenn:

It being Glen was my initial thought as well. I thoroughly enjoyed this weeks episode if only because we got to hang out with Daryl.

Just saw this thread and realized I forgot to watch the last two episodes. I also realized I don't care. That's not a put down to anyone still watching, it was just kind of a funny epiphany. "Huh, I really don't care." I'm guess I'm officially over this dumb show full of dumb characters I don't care about doing dumb things.

I like that they found bazookas and how they explained the way they nuked all the walkers in a mass in the forest.  This is good foreshadowing for how they're going to get Glenn out of his bind with all all the walkers piled up in there.

Ha!!  I still get the feeling Glenn is toast in the very near future.  It's like the show teased us with his "death" to make everyone get used to the idea of it happening and now he's just living on borrowed time.

Carl didn't die and actually played off the attack like a stud.  "I get it dude, my dad killed your dad.  But your dad was a dick."  Truthbomb from Carl!

The entire group is wading in a river of crap right now.  At first I thought the youngest boy (the one locking himself in his room) was going to die and become a child zombie.  He looked sick.  Glenn still isn't dead, so I think he might be alive moving forward.  I'm more worried about Maggie. 

Great episode and I'm excited to see where it goes!

100% agree. I was hoping that he was just going to put him down execution style when they went into that room together.

Side note: If Carl downs Ron, that would be a huge male genitals block for Rick on his new slampiece.

They are so incredibly surrounded, it would seem the only way to not get everyone killed would be if he a) shuts the hell up or b) everyone lets go of his hands and slowly walks away as he is devoured.

Anything else and multiple people will die.

Also I was very nervous that biker gang was going to kill.  The show teased all the fans by making us think that was the future of TWD having to deal with this gang but Daryl Dixon took the bazooka to them!   :ROFL:

Fantastic entry to the second half of this season!

Well.. that was just like the scouting crew of a larger faction of people, right?  Didn't they mention some guy's name who they report to?

I'm not sure that was clearly answered for me in the show.

They already cast this guy to play him:

In my opinion with the almost killing Glenn in the first half of the season and having him almost die on Sunday, it would be really shitty to have him killed by Neegan.

I'm hoping the allusion by his little scouting party that they usually kill people in a group right off the bat, but have stopped doing that, means that he won't show up and kill someone immediately.

I've never read the comics. But I've read enough to know what might happen. If there is one thing we can be certain of, it is that the TV version of TWD and the comic version don't perfectly line up. If I remember right, in the comics Carol is dead, Darryl isn't even a character, and Andrea is still alive. So it isn't a spoiler in my opinion to talk about certain things that might happen because it is in the comics because unlike GOT it isn't a certainty.

Exactly.  I also think in the comics that Carol's daughter is still alive, and Maggie took her in as her own.

I mean.. it was pretty clearly posted that Negan is the antagonist this season who kills a lot of main characters possibly and apparently whacks peoples heads with a barb wire baseball bat, along with pictures of the actor they hired.   :dunno:

Before that, I knew that there maybe a guy named Negan wandering around.

Here's the thing.  Glenn should be dead. That guy got eaten while he's laying on glenn, and glenn doesn't get bit at all? Bullshit.  Glenn is surrounded by walkers and all of the walkers get mowed down with an automatic weapon and not one bullet hits him? At this point the walkers are as fragile as crepe paper.  Glenn needs to die before I lose it.  I like glenn, but he should be dead by now.

I want to go on record once again in saying the whole "bit once and you're as good as dead" paradigm is full of holes.   Way back in season 2 they said everyone already infected.  Why does it matter if you get bit?  Do you get more infected?   No one's died from a non-mortal wound bite in like 3 seasons.  I think they just keep it around to have a reason to hack off limbs every few episodes.

Maggie would be an intriguing choice.  She has become somewhat a secondary character lately.  I mean, the not-a-doc doctor has become more prominent than Maggie lately.  Yet, she has been a main character long enough that it would make a big impact.  It's not going to happen, though.  RIP glenn.

I think they are setting Maggie up to be the Mayor at Alexandria.  I think the actress is trying to do more movies and probably has shittier availability, so they are writing her into a role they can ignore for episodes at a time if need be.  My guess is she and Glenn "settle down" in Alexandria and at some point the rest of the crew heads back out/gets separated.

On the other hand, I think they are due to kill off a main character.  Rick, Michonne, and Carl are probably safe.

They were coming for gas and showed having gas in that room earlier in the epi.  I mean, yeah it would smell much stronger like gas, but still, they are probably used to smelling gas in there.

This might belong in the Shame Yourself thread, but I watched last nights episode thinking it was the season finale. I'm not sure how or why that was in my head, but I was prepared for some crazy crap. After it was over (but before the preview) I was outraged and felt cheated. I honestly thought (at the time) that it was the worst season finale ever.

Next season should be fun.  Rick's entire group will have 0 confidence and are now slaves to Negan.  Morgan and Carol met the weird group of Knights, who I think will end up saving the group but it may not be until this time next season.  Negan's character is amazing.

I felt like when he was about to kill whoever it was he was standing in between Carl and Rick. Which would be Aaron or Sasha. I thought I saw him nod to his right when he mentioned feeding Carl's good eye to Rick. On Talking Dead Kirkman admitted there were hints as to who actually got it if you look for them.

I agree that the negative response to this episode is overblown. The show runners are experts at keeping us on the edge or our seats. The whole episode was intense and Neegan was terrifying. I'm just crossing my fingers it wasn't Darryl. He just got a new show on AMC. . .a reality show about him riding around the country on motorcycles. Hopefully that isn't a sign that his acting time has freed up a bit.
Title: Re: The Walking Dead (official thread, 'clams not allowed)
Post by: CNS on April 04, 2016, 09:41:05 AM
I have a feeling it is Daryl for that exact reason.

Neagan was terrifying and they did a good job of building up the saviors with each encounter.  However, the interviews and build up to that episode really raised the expectation that a lot would happen, yet all they did was introduce Neagan.

It's Eugene.  He had his couple of moments in the episode building up his character, and he gave Rick the instructions for how to make bullets - there's no character arc left for him.

Post by: ChiComCat on April 05, 2016, 08:25:00 AM
I thought the lead up to Negan was pretty solid.  My only issue is that "who got the beating" is a pretty easy cliffhanger.  I would hope they would be a bit more creative.  Weird seeing Jeffrey Dean Morgan so skinny too.  Good for him but I pictured Negan as bigger.

Seemed like the group got a lot stupider this season which was disappointing.  I don't care how confident they got, running around on their own and putting themselves in danger is bad practice.  If you think this group is after you, I would imagine the better route would be to prepare to defend Alexandria.  Don't spend a season telling me how much smarter/more capable the Alexandria crowd is becoming and then follow it with dumbassedness from the main group.

All of that said, one of the more entertaining seasons.  Just becoming a bit more of a popcorn show and less of a thinker.

OK guys!  TWD is about a month from starting back up.  Who do you think met their demise at the wire covered, barrel end of Lucille?  My theory is it's one of either Glenn, Michonne, Rosita, or Daryl.  Why, you ask?  If you remember, there were several instances  in the last episode where the camera is looking out from a dark room through some cracks as if looking through someone's eyes.  We later find out that dark room is a van that is transporting the four characters listed above.  The death seen is also shot in POV.  I think it is same person as in the van.  I don't think they will kill Glenn or Michonne just yet so that leaves Daryl or Rosita.  I'm just not sure which one it is.  I think I will go with Rosita.  With her and Abe on the outs, she has become expendable in the story line but she is a strong enough character that it will elicit enough emotion for the group to want vengeance.

Glenn surprised me because they went to such lengths to keep him alive last season.  I would've been disappointed if it was just Abraham after leaving it on that big of a cliffhanger.  Carl, Glenn, Daryl, Maggie, or Michonne had to die after that buildup.

I know the show is gory, but having Glenn sit there for awhile was a bit over the top.

It sounds like they are going to keep running this show until no one is watching.  I guess they have also generally followed the comics for the main plot so far, which indicates they will spend at least a season (maybe two) of being subjugated by Negan.

This show is like KSU Basketball.  I can't decide if I truly like it anymore or if I just like to watch for unintentional comedy.

There were a few good action scenes so at least they tried.

Gun fights are incredibly stupid. Look up and shoot bad guys 20 yards ahead that somehow didn't shoot at you first.  Then turn around and shoot more bad guys that are 20 yards away and didn't shoot you even though you just had your back turned to them like 3 seconds ago.

CGI tiger!! Of course the tiger jumps in at the VERY LAST SECOND to save Coral then the CGI tiger that knows the difference between good guys and bad guys.

See you in 6 months I guess.

So... I thought there were hundreds or even thousands of Saviors, where were they all in the last episode?

Also I will add that there were plenty of things to nitpick, but I'm trying to look past all that and enjoy it for what it is.

Me neither.  He's the one character I didn't think they would ever kill off.

Hey how about that mid season premiere of The Walking Dead?  Riveting stuff - good thing it was an extra long episode so we could watch Coral could take an extra long time to die.  I'm not even 100% sure he ended up dying because I may have dozed off.

It was without a doubt the longest death scene ever.

How is this show still going? I think people must be watching ironically.

Yet another season premiere last night!  Season 9 I think or maybe it was season 15 or season 27 it doesn't really matter at this point.

So apparently Washington DC is the only place where they can get their hands on some old-timey farm equipment?  It's a minor plot hole but I can forgive it since it gave them a reason to go outside of their boring walled community and see our nation's capitol in a state of decay.  It looks like there was a little bit of a time jump too?

The Walking Dead reminds me a lot of Snyder 2.0.  It started off with cautious optimism, peaked a few seasons in, and now has gone on way too long with no definite end in sight.  Hopefully this will be the last season for both.

I don’t even remember Maggie giving birth. Did that happen last season?

Anyone watch the Rick Grimes finale?  This show is now taking a 4+ year jump.  I don't think I want to watch it anymore. 

Interesting that AMC will be making a trilogy to continue Rick's story.

Pretty good purging of the cast in the last epi.

So I just found out this show is 3 episodes into a new season.  Anyone still watching?  I stuck with it for a long ass time but I honestly don't care anymore.

I haven't watched it since like s4, but it still gets pretty decent ratings for a cable show.

My wife and I have been watching the TWD because we each thought the other one was watching it. I asked her last week how she could still like this show and she told me she stopped liking it a few years ago.  So, I cancelled it from the dvr.

I binged this over the past few months and it's pretty bad, but it was a good WFH show. My biggest problem with it was that I only liked a couple characters (Darrell, Glenn and Tyrese) and I strongly disliked most of the characters. The dislike was due to them being dumb, bad acting or they were jerks. I disliked Maggie, Carl and Rick the most.
