Why would they even show those scenes?  It'll be a pretty big letdown if they just leave it.

I agree. It has to or should be a lead up to another pycho. Who's the villian that swears a lot in the comics ? He's supposedly in this season at some point.

They throw a lot of random stuff out there and never touch it again. Then again, the group last season that Daryl wound up joining seemed random at first, but then they eventually brought them back. This stuff in Richmond though seems too far away from DC to be relevant to when they get there.

Lol I laughed. I hope she didn't damage the blade.

 

Question.

What was everybodies take on the truckload of torso n heads without the lower bodies ? I was confused when they came across the bodies from the waist down splinkles with limbs lying aboot but it was strange ? 

 

I'm pretty sure there's another group of people out there that did that to those people.

If they do bring it back, I hope they also tie it into one other group. A while back before the second attack on the prison, the governor and his new group were considering attacking a small camp in the woods, only to find out that they were beaten to it. I'd love to know who did that.

Last night's episode was a contender for worst episode ever, or at least their worst episode since the Latino gang who was only stealing weapons to protect their grandparents in the old folks home in season 1.

 

1. The show fell right back into "Misery Porn" territory.  The show runners are really convinced they're doing something profound when they reiterate how bad things are in the world after the apocalypse.  Yeah, we get it.  I swear sometimes the show feels like it's written by 14 year olds who need to prove their show can be hardcore.  "See how miserable and crazy everyone is!  See how there's no hope!  HARDCORE!"

2. Did anyone think Tyrese was going to survive when he started seeing visions of every dead character from the past couple seasons?  And yet they still dragged that whole thing out for 30 minutes somehow.

3. "It's OK, Tyrese.  It's better now."  Not sure if that was even meant to mean anything.  Giving up and dying is better?  OK.  Sorta makes me not care about any of the remaining living characters.

I did but only bc I thought they were being too obvious liek you said.  Then when the slow music started playing I thought I was watching one of those Sarah McLaughlin (sp?) abused dog commercials.  

 

Typically after an episode or two like this.... the Shhhhhh is on in the next few.

I heard people talking about how good the episode was.  Now that I've watched it, I couldn't disagree more.  It was filled with pseudo-intellectual nonsense and practically no plot advancement.  Honestly, I wouldn't have cared so much if it hadn't been touted as such a good episode.  Very disappointing.

It was good in the sense that they established that a few of the main characters are losing hope (i.e. Michonne).  That's important to set up whatever is coming up IMO.  I could've done without all the visions of all the dead people and what not, but it established the mindset that a lot of these character's are in.

So they went all Korean BBQ on us. What was grosser, Bob watching the folks eat his own flesh or Cujo on a Stick?

 

I thought the episode was dreadfully written, just completely implausible, corny, sappy dreck you would never expect people in that situation to speak.

 

I did like Rick's description of the group as "the walking dead." And the barn door scene and aftermath of the fleshnado were cool.

 

The final scene... here we go again?

I agree. One of the worst episodes since the beginning imo. Felt like filler. The new dude walks up all freshly laundered and all. Maybe he's been hiding out at a chinese laundry ?

Those torsos would make a good defense against humans. Stick them side by side on top of a fence or wall facing outward and they would discourage people from trying to climb over the walls.

It would do a number on the Jehovah's Witnesses anyway.

I'm really coming around to the idea that the first 2/3rds of that episode was basically sandbagged in order to set up the ending. Let one of the writer's tween daughters write the first part and get the viewers bitching on social media. Then the Rick speech, the zombienado and the arrival of the gent from the Land's End catalog. Suckers.

Just guessing here but maybe the guy knowing something about the group and Rick has to do with the crazy black guy from the first few episodes that has been seen following them lately?

 

Could be that he has been a part of this new guy's group, could be he ran into them, could be they found him and kidnapped him to get information... Hmmmm.

 

 

 

Either way I think some type of wild positive is coming. Some light at the end of the tunnel. Because they've been even more dark and depressed than normal lately.

This episode was the first interesting one in a while. A couple unexpected turns.

I'd love to be a fly on the wall when Rick actually tells Aaron (that is his name, right?) why he didn't trust him at first. This group can't trust anyone by this point.

Something fishy about the town of gayberry. I heard the children playing but in the preview when they showed the beautiful homes n stuff there weren't too many people around except the usual cast of characters. And who built the walls and fortifications ? Certainly not the two characters we've been introduced to so far. Lots of questions and not much for answers so far. This is setting up as a tranquil and boring stay.

Didn't take Carol long to go all Den Mother. She does look ridiculous. And Darryl still hasn't washed south of the border.

Carol is playing it smart. She's the last one the townsfolk will fear but the one they should fear. She knows what she's doing.
