The Walking Dead: The Television Series

[Angrist]

Did anything actually happen last episode? I almost felt like fast-forwarding the show. I almost feel like they could have skipped this episode and go straight to the next one.

And if you want to make people believe that 1 zombie ate a whole human... yes, you need better explanation.

Oh and did anyone ever doubt that Sofia's mom was alive? I'm surprised they smeared that out over 3 episodes, what was the use?

My only complaint is Andrea. Cannot die soon enough.

Agreed.
I hate everything about her.
The actress' face. Her voice.

I'm hoping she's only being used to go deeper into the character of the Governor (considering Mishonne now left her, and they're not tied together anymore, and all the info Merle needed from her has been extracted. Her usefulness to the show has been spent), and then he'll kill her in some gruesome way - because shit is getting too non-zombie between them - and their entire shit is just boring.

Maybe it's a pacing thing, though.
I figure if every episode has the knob turned to 11, soon 11 will be the norm for that knob, and there will be nowhere to take the intensity so you just turn that knob down to a 2 every once in a while. So then when you turn the knob back to 11, the crowds all fist-pumping, rocking, and moshing again.

I just really, really hope Andrea's story, and the last episode was the shitty ballad amidst the sea of fists.

I want that cunts head in a fishbowl.

I hate the way she does that head-roll-cock-eye-half-smile thing. She does it constantly.

Glen is badass. Great ep. So cool to see Rick and Michonne together. Can't wait for next week. The Governor is probably going to snap completely now that he knows there's nothing left of Penny.

This mid-season finale stuff is fucking bullshit. I wish I didn't have an addiction to AMC shows. Mad Men...Breaking Bad...this show....

It's okay, karma evens it out.

Anyway, great episode. The Governor keeps upping the creep factor...and who knows what is going to go down. I'm really impressed with this season, which has taken this show from something I watch because I feel obligated to watch it, to something I watch because I'm genuinely excited to watch it. Really good stuff this season.

Glen has come a long way. They changed the story a bit with the Governor raping the hot chick from Chuck...I believe he goes after Michonne in the comics. And Merle is doing a MUCH BETTER JOB this season than Season 1, when he played "bad redneck racist stereotype." The dude has acting chops, and I still struggle to explain Season 1.

SPOILER....sort of:


I'm assuming the "mid season fuck-me-up-the-ass finale" is going to be Rick and co. attacking the Governor's town, and fucking shit up...which will set up the finale where the Governor strikes back.

Who knows what side Andrea will fall on when all is said and done, but she is kind of a ditsy cunt. I still remember the sniper incident. I'm rooting for Glen and the hot chick from Chuck. And of course Rick.

It sucks to be that guy sleeping in the cabin...poor guy can't catch a break. His dog dies, his house gets invaded, and some strangers fuck up his shit. That's a shitty way to go.

It seems like a ton of shows are doing "mid season finales" now. Next Sunday is also the last episode of Once Upon a Time until January. I can only assume other shows I don't watch are doing it too, since the two shows I do watch are.

I think it has been common practice. Usually shows take huge breaks this time of year just due to holidays and stuff.

I think the term mid-season finale is relatlvely new though.
