The Walking Dead [merged]

[justanothershyguy]

^ and ^^ ; only one character has been "killed" because of a contract dispute, and that's not even well documented. What do you expect in a zombie apocalypse; everybody lives? What I like most about this is that it adapts. Sure, if you watch the first episode and then watch the most recent, it's going to make no sense; but are there that many that do?

[DigitalFudge]

I agree. They have already changed it too much for my taste. I understand contract disputes and the complexities of dealing with an ensemble cast. That being said if the producers want it to remain a viable series, they may have a eat a few crows.

But look at American Horror Story. They are literally retooling it every season to keep it fresh and exciting while reusing some of the same amazing actors for new characters.



At the end of the day us as viewers BEG for originality and something new. However when we get it we bitch and moan for the old.


We have to simply look at the Walking Dead Universe and think to ourselves "Does it make sense for these people to die?"



I don't know about you, but death is the only thing I know for a fact is bound to happen tomorrow night and I couldn't be more excited.

[thatgirl]

As long as Rick Grimes is around, I think viewers will stick around. He's the one dude you know won't be killed off and he anchors the show as its central character. We started the journey/story with him. In that sense, it's similar to most shows which focus mostly on one protagonist.

All the other characters are relatively expendable, imo. It wouldn't seem bizarre to see any of them go (like it would be to have Rick killed off).

[dereperez]

^Rick is expendable too in one sense. It would give viewers a huge shock as it's not expected. But it won't happen any time soon that's for sure...if ever.

[DigitalFudge]

Who would take Rick's place?



Glen I'm guessing, he really united the group at the beginning of the last episode.


Not like Herschel had to struggle with one leg down a hill to get Rick before it turned into North Korea in there.

[dereperez]

Glenn is fine.

[chance1]

watching now

Herschel is amazing !!!

[chance1]

andrea needs to die - least attractive character in the show

[chance1]

Michonne is coming out of her ....... shell

she just destroyed andrea verbally who still is a fucking idiot

[Stoowii]

Michonne smiling for the first time. (I need to make one of <-these of a zombie, but right now, the X-tina one will have to do.)

Side note: Rick looks to be about 5'10" *Googles* Yep, spot on, he's 5'10". With that height and that size boot, that ninja looks like he's packing.






Looks like old Rick is coming back. I love how he said he was glad Daryl was back, and how he's beginning to trust Michonne. We gon' have us a War!

Oh and @ Andrea thinking things were just gonna pick up from where they left off when they were at the farm.

[legend145]

LOL at Carl being "ready" now. I don't understand the ending with Andrea with the knife.

[Stoowii]

Carol told her to sleep with the Gov'nah and when he drops his guard, to end it.

[DigitalFudge]

Everyone being cold to the good sis Andrea



Martinez only being in two scenes



The new group full of Extras siding with the Gov'nah




Beth breaking out into song





Carl

[GamerBear]

Andrea is a lost soul been like that for a long time ever since she got some Crazy Shane dick!

[Kiwils]

Michonne had lines! Good ones too.

/facepalm @ Tyrese's group though. I know they got booted and all, but it's not like they didn't get help. They might have not even made it out w/o Carl. Plus, they know there are kids and a baby in the camp.

Also, I like Carl. He's done some stupid things in the past, but he's a kid, so maybe that's why I'm more forgiving towards him. It's not like he's totally useless now. You saw him keeping watch at night on his own?! He's ready!

That Talking Dead episode was so awkward and uncomfortable. If it wasn't for Chris Hardwick, it would have been so quiet. Those guests were duds. At least I know the next one will be good. Aisha Tyler's bound to have things to say.

My favorite episode thus far has been the one with Yvette Nicole Brown. I love me some Helen from Drake & Josh and Shirley.

[justanothershyguy]

Overall impression of the last episode: dull. There was so much excitement at the end of the last that this one almost had to be. But I will say I was very happy with some of the emotional moments.

Rick; seems like his sensitive side is coming back just a little bit.. welcoming Daryl back & telling Andrea to take care were the moments I remember in particular. I do think this mission (which, based on the preview is gonna be a big test) is a test for both Carl and Michonne.

Michonne; great to hear her real opinion of something and have that conversation with Andrea that's been a half-season in the making. Very good, positive step for her.

Herschel; Fuck yeah.

Daryl; Seemed almost disappointed with Rick not to let him go on this run.

Andrea; Seems like she's finally fighting something inside her.. Isn't just making irrational decisions and thought something through. I imagine she's gonna find herself in hot water in Woodbury and have to make an escape.. Will Milton see the insanity in the gov'nah and join her? Doubt it, I think he's fucked.

Tyreese's guys; I don't remember their names, but the husband and son of the woman who died in the jail. Anyway, those two are pure gov'nah material.

Tyreese; I believe he's only doing what he thinks is best for him and his small group. I think he'll have a struggle with the diagramming (he knows there's kids there) and end up not doing it. Somehow, the back entrance will still slip to the gov'nah and they'll come in that way or something.

Tyreese's sister; I can't remember her name, sorry. Anyway, I think she was having major issues with the governor already and I expect we'll see a conversation between her and Tyreese in the next episode.

Yep, that's about it. Some little impressions here and there, obvs, but those aren't as important. Oh! Like Carol... telling Andrea to assassinate the Governor an episode after saying they weren't assassins... smh.

[xbuzzerx]

Did anyone else scream "DO IT WHORE!" at the end of the episode?

[Kiwils]

My favorite episode thus far has been the one with Yvette Nicole Brown. I love me some Helen from Drake & Josh and Shirley.

lol I remember her from Drake and Josh too.

They should always have at least one guest they know is gonna be vocal. As much as I like Chris, it's awkward when the host is trying to carry the show on his own.

This episode was definitely slow after what happened last time, but it was probably also because the focus was Andrea. lol

I think the group definitely got to Andrea. She's not completely blinded now.

I guess Talking Dead wasn't a complete dud. I did enjoy the comment about Milton being compared to Smithers from the Simpsons. lol I don't think he'd go against the governor.

Yeah, Tyrese has too much of a conscience still to get rid of the group at the prison I think. The sister didn't seem too keen on the idea either.

lol@ your Carol comment. I did not catch that.

[FanofFiction]

I knew Andrea wasn't going him. Michonne or Rick needs to kill the governor.

I sort of like Andrea. She's a bitch that keeps the story interesting. Love the scene where she made her own zombie pet. That was bad ass.

Carl is not ready for anything other than maybe middle school. I would not take my kid out zombie hunting with me. WTF Rick? As soon as Asskicker is potty trained, you should take her out too?

I do feel like the show needs more zombie action. It's definitely not as frightening or tense as it used to be. Still a great show, but it's a different show now.

[justanothershyguy]

lol@ your Carol comment. I did not catch that.

I can't remember for sure if she was the one who made the assassin comment straight up, I think that was Herschel. But I still think she voiced her disapproval. I don't remember now >.<

[vulgar_newcomer]

Its time for a run to the nearest regional National Guard camp and securing a couple M-1 Abrams tanks that are sitting around, load them up and make dust of the Gov'.
Why they don't do that is beyond me. Instead of driving around in a KIA SUV and old Ford pickups.

[penayforay]

lol at the Xtina gifs. yas get that free promo gurl.
help struggling artists. Buy LOTUS.

the walker that Andrea had wasnt as docile as Michonne's....I wonder if its something that just comes with time.
also I noticed that two walkers went down after Michonne hit them in the mouth with that axe...I thought they needed to be hit in the brain :/

[xbuzzerx]

I can't remember for sure if she was the one who made the assassin comment straight up, I think that was Herschel. But I still think she voiced her disapproval. I don't remember now >.<

Nope you were correct. She said "we're NOT assassins" about Glen talking about the idea with Michonne while Rick was AFK. And then she went and told Andrea to assassinate him, lol.

[DigitalFudge]

What did Herschel do this episode that was so amazing?

[justanothershyguy]

What did Herschel do this episode that was so amazing?

Tell Rick to man up and be the leader instead of some psycho

[DigitalFudge]

Tell Rick to man up and be the leader instead of some psycho

Oh right. Poor Herschel, one legged man with two legged people problems.

[justanothershyguy]

Oh right. Poor Herschel, one legged man with two legged people problems.

Well, to be fair, Shane got all of his beloved family killed at the barn before he realized that they couldn't be saved...

[Stoowii]

I just realized if you put Herschel, Merle and The Gov'nah together, you have a pirate.

[GrkGuy187]

Fuck I need to fuck Daryl and Rick.


Anyway, bit of a dull episode. I want the action, the tenseness back. I'm sick of this Prison VS Woodbury - it's taking forever.

[rl3311]

LMFAO at Stoowii comment your so right about that

[thatgirl]

Andrea is a mess. I'm so repulsed that she keeps sleeping with the Governor.

I'm sick of this Prison VS Woodbury - it's taking forever.

I'm suddenly just so bored with everything about the show.

TWD always fucks me over with its weird pacing every single season.

But at least it's nowhere near as bad as The Farm + the situation with the lost little girl. Zzzz.

Michonne needs to cut motherfuckers up! Then she needs to cut off the Governor's balls and finish this shit once and for all!

[Ohiospeedo]

Thatgirl - I agree with you. TWD is just boring me now. I had the last two episodes on DVR, and it took me over a week to commit to watching them. Something about this past few weeks is bugging me.

Where is everyone reading their spoilers?

[thatgirl]

Where the heck do they bathe in the prison? I don't even know why this hadn't crossed my mind. They all look increasingly smelly, dirty and greasy. It's gross.

Something about this past few weeks is bugging me.

Same. I just feel like at this point in the season, the pace should not be this inconsistent.

Michonne needs to cut motherfuckers up! Then she needs to cut off the Governor's balls and finish this shit once and for all!

Yes. So tired of the Governor. Michonne would have ended this mess a long time ago if it weren't for Andrea's weird obsession with him. Sick of her shit, tbh.

[GamerBear]

Daryl doesn't bathe, I think he does it over in that creek where Rick was pinned down at. I am sure the prison has hot water or their own water tank. Michonne looks like she hasn't bathed since she left Woodbury. I think the smell of the dead helps protect her from walkers.

[thatgirl]

^ LOL. I need Rick to take a bath in that creek or in the prison then. His hair is looking so nasty lately.

Everyone needs to clean up a bit.

[eastofeden]

I think it is gonna be Glen...or Maggie...who kills the Governor.

I thought it was funny when Carol told Andrea to have sex with him and then kill him. Andrea has pissed me off now past the poitn where I can forgive her. I like Merle better than her right now.

[BetinaNungging]

biatch queen Carol was serving last week episode
by telling Andrea what to do to the governor

[soopadupa]

SNL did a Walking Dead Parody with Kevin Hart and it was pretty funny

Can't figure how to post it so here's the link:

[Stoowii]

^ I forgot to DVR it!

Kevin Hart is a fool. That was funny.

Nawt at Maggie, tho.

[justanothershyguy]

Live post:

WOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!

[chance1]

michonne has had more action in this episode than in all previous

and she rocks hard

[chance1]

crazy episode - just rick, michonne, carl and ........... welcome back morgan

liked it

[Kiwils]

LOL@ them picking up the guy's backpack and Michonne going back for the cat.

[BFizzle]

I was a little disgusted that they ignored the hitchhiker, but picked up his bag after he'd been ripped to pieces.

I guess I just ain't bout that lyfe they livin'.

[Stoowii]

^Shirtless Rick, tho.

Loved the episode. Not a lot of action, but at least it puts the Morgan story to rest.

Next episode gon' be good, y'all. [/paula deen voice]

[DigitalFudge]

I was a little disgusted that they ignored the hitchhiker, but picked up his bag after he'd been ripped to pieces.

Did you really want another episode of season 2 "Do we let him go, or kill him?"



When they left the hiker I was like "Oh, good, they learned"


This episode was phenomenal. It had some zombie kills, it had Michonne giving me LYFE, and Carl was slightly tolerable but when we got a look at the zombie behind the counter I was chanting "Get him, get him, get him"



No regrets.


However, most importantly,

[justanothershyguy]

Favorite dialogue of the whole episode: between Michonne & Rick at the end.

Rick: You wanna drive?
Michonne: Yeah.
Rick: Good. Because I'm seeing things.

Welcome to the group for good, Michonne!

[Stoowii]

However, most importantly,

^Shirtless Rick, tho.

Rick: Good. Because I'm seeing things.

The group I watch the episodes with all started laughing on this part. Good moment between them. Love that bad betch.
