  2. After all that has happened, it is nice for things to finally slow down a bit. This new character looks to be interesting. And it looks like a lot of the people are starting to give up even when the rain came. Something is going to happen to motivate them soon.

  6. I'm not sure what to make of this episode (No Spoilers), but I do know "in the kingdom of the walking dead.......Michonne is Queen" or.............."tornadoes don't take walkers to Oz"! 4 THE DEAD TO STAY WALKING, I am Nobody!!!

  7. I guess we needed an ep where things got bad enough for Daryl to eat a worm and everyone to eat dogs. UGH. At least it looks like the pace picks up next week.

  8. Can't believe there is only 6 more episodes left ( March 29th ) this season before we go on our 6 / 7 month ( until season 6 begins in Oct ) break.

  9. Episodes that take it slow for a little bit and focus more on the main characters and their struggles along the way, not just have them kill walkers for the whole hour are the reasons why I fell in love with this show. The Walking Dead knows how to do these types of episodes perfectly and I commend the writers for that.


    Watching Rick and the group barely making it to that barn was tough to watch. You can just see everyone start to crumble right in front of your eyes. Poor Daryl and Maggie both going out into the woods, away from the group and just break down crying. They just had to let all of their emotions finally take over them for a bit there.


    That scene in the barn where, one by one, Rick and the group try and hold the door shut from the zombies was definitely the highlight of the episode for me. It really showcased what they're capable of when they all work together.


    I wonder who this Aaron guy is. I'm a little wary of him right now considering I don't trust anyone outside of the group but I'm looking forward to getting to know him. Looks like he plays a very important part in where the group is trying to go in Washington DC.

  10. After watching the episode again I noticed that Sasha's knife cut "Sgt. Carrot - Top" on the arm with her follow through from cutting the "walker's throat". Is the transfer of "walker blood" to his cut equal to an infection (bite)? There is a scene in the barn where Sasha looks over and "Sgt. Carrot - Top" is drinking (alcohol) and staring at her. Could these scenes be "hints" as to which cast member will turn/die next? 4 THE DEAD TO STAY WALKING, I am still Nobody!!!

  11. Transferring Walker blood into an open wound of a living person is something the comics explore. The answer is yes -- having Sasha's knife slice through Walkers and then cut Abraham SHOULD infect him. We've seen this happen to other characters in the comics.

    However, I think this is a bit of lore that the show is overlooking. Abraham still has a lot to do that the show hasn't tackled yet (then again, we said that about Andrea...). Abe's cut just looks like a flesh wound, so maybe that doesn't count as an infectent.

  12. you really dont remember his name or you think calling him "sgt. carrot-top" is such a witty nickname?

  13. Mmm tastes just like chicken.

  14. I know that they were wary of the water, afraid there was poison in it, but couldn't they have taken it anyways and boiled it before drinking or cooking with? Or would boiling not have killed any poison that might be in there?

  15. While I felt bad for Maggie, I couldn't help be annoyed with her at the same time. My issue with her is that she was so certain that Glenn was alive, yet she seemed pretty sure/confident that Beth was dead.
    From my understanding, Beth should have been on that bus, because I thought Maggie told her to get herself and others to the bus. So when Maggie didn't find Glenn, I expected her to say something about not finding Beth either and believing Beth was still out there like Glenn.

  16. Now I can say THE SHOW IS BACK!
    Ill try to forget the previous artsy student film episode.

  17. So I just watched this on television here in India, they are thankfully showing it a day after US broadcast ... BUT ... they censor all the walker killing scenes!! UGH! So annoying! No wonder the episode was over in 40 minutes! Anyhoo ... found it a little boring again, but it was probably because the walker scenes were all cut out!
    Although I must ask ... the scene in the barn, with the walkers pressing on the gate, and the guys holding them off ... what happened after that? Did that really happen or did Maggie dream it? The scene just cut off after the whole thunderstorm and then Maggie was awake! Ugh! Why do they censor stuff here .. I mean, the show is broadcast at 11 PM in any case! No child is awake at this hour on a school night! *super annoyed*

  18. I understand every episode cannot be full of action and there is a need of slowing down sometimes. This kind of episodes make the characters develope and that's interesting, but in this particular case I found it too boring. No action, okay... but no dialogue too? Too much silence for me. I understand they've just gone through important deaths, but I would've liked more, let's say, 'consistent' dialogues. I also expected more of Rick's 'we are the walking dead'.
    Anyway, the introduction of the new character seems interesting. I haven't read this part of the comicbook, but I imagine he will bring Morgan back to scene and will guide the group to DC.

  19. I know the whole ongoing theme of "we're reeeeally struggling here" threatens to get old on a show like this, but I love the way the writers handled this episode. Sure, some of the metaphorical scenes were kinda on-the-nose (pushing against the barn door to signify "us" vs. "them," yep we get it). But there were also some beautiful moments of tranquility involving Daryl, Maggie and Sasha -- reminders that even at such a low point, there are tiny glimmers of peace and hope. All in all, I think the writing is getting steadily better under Gimple. Plus Eugene's quality assurance scene = awesome.

  20. Any other things you feel like spoiling?

  21. I went into his episode with trepidation (given that I hated last week's episode) but I was pleasantly surprised. Very strong emotional episode. The focus on Maggie, Daryl and Sasha dealing with grief was very well done. Great acting from Lauren Cohan and Norman Reedus specifically.

    Huge GN moment: Rick and his line of 'We're the Walking Dead' - delivered perfectly by Andrew Lincoln.

    Favorite moment: Everyone comes to defend the barn door but what made it more special was that the first people to it are Daryl, Maggie and Sasha - the very people who are the most depressed. That was awesome.

  22. I know people will hate on the episode for being slow but it was one of my favorite hours of the entire show. One of the must human hours of the walking dead, I loved it. And it was an extremely necessary hour. Really, really spectacular. Rick's speech at the fire and the group holding up the door were iconic scenes for me, and I loved Maggie and Sasha at the end too.
