You never know when you're going to need to peel potatoes when you're dashing through the woods.

I don't know enough about Tyrese's group to have any real feeling for them one way or another and that's a shame. I think there's definite potential there that the show just hasn't paid any attention to at all.

And no water! That's what really irked me. You're planning on sneaking out of Woodbury and hauling ass back to the prison and you don't bring water? Even with the war preparations going on and Martinez taking her gun, I don't think walking around town carrying a bottle of water would raise eyebrows.

When I saw that Laurie Holden was going to be on Talking Dead, I thought for a split second that the universe was giving me a birthday present and Andrea was toast tonight. Fuck you universe!

This! Cartoon cats have fewer lives than Andrea, the close-call queen. I lost count of the number of times I was rooting for us to finally be rid of her. For a second there, I thought she had fallen into a hole when she was running through that field, and that would have been a fitting end for her IMO. Just — poof —

They teleported into the abandoned building too. Andrea's shoes are echoing throughout the entire building, yet the zombies don't make a peep until they're right on top of her. At this point, I'm starting to thing they're smarter than she is.

Same here. I actually turned to my friend and asked if we were supposed to know who the beardy white guy was. Neither one of us remembered him at all until they started talking about his dead wife.

Agreed on both counts. I don't actually expect any Lorettatude from Ellen Mae, I guess I'm just hoping that she'll have a moment of cunning or a chance to have the upper hand for once before somebody kills her. When she told Shelby that him turning around to pick her up was the kindest thing anybody had done for her,

I agree with you in theory, but I can't imagine this show without Walton Goggins. Now if Boyd were to pick up stakes and start over somewhere else in spinoff land, well, I'd watch the shit out of that.

As Johnny was listing off the reasons he's had it with Boyd's bullshit to Raylan, I couldn't help but notice the collection of random shit on the shelf behind him. A pantyhose carton, SpaghettiOs, Tobasco sauce, etc. Are the girls actually living in these trailers?

When Duffy's henchman made that crack about not wanting to run like a pussy, I thought he was a goner right then and there. I won't go so far as to say Duffy has mellowed as the series has progressed, but I don't see him as the psychotic hothead he was at the beginning. Maybe his time with Quarles taught him the

I'm glad to see this is finally happening. Art's been doing it all along, but as Raylan's boss, he kinda has to. But to see Rachel and even Tim to some extent letting Raylan know that he's a pain in the ass is great. It's really something the show was missing before, and they kept their annoyance to themselves way

Me too! Only thing that could have made that better would have been him calling himself an idjit under his breath.

I've always loved Ellen Mae. I keep hoping she'll have a moment where there's a clear hint that she's not as dumb as she seems to be. I'd be so happy if it turns out there was an older Loretta hiding in there this whole time.

Carl's been my runner-up for ages.

Exactly. I can see the thought behind not bringing it up to the group as a whole. Although I don't think any of them would be trying to stuff her in a bag and drag her to Woodbury, what's the point of introducing the idea when they're all already scared shitless. It would be adding drama purely for its own sake, and

I think you're right about it being the character. I'm still not sure what his deal is, but not in an intriguing, mystery-man kind of way. More like in a the-writers-haven't-pinned-it-down-yet kind of way. Have we seen his little notebook before? I can't remember. I'm sure he was taking notes during his experiments,

I don't think it would have been out of character at all. He didn't want Tyrese's group hanging around because they could have been a threat to the security of his group, even though the newcomers could have been sequestered relatively easily until they had a chance to prove their value and allegiance. Yet here he is

This definitely qualifies as overthinking it, but wouldn't duct tape make a shitty DYI holster? The whole point of it is that it's super sticky. Chances are that if Hershel actually had to pull that gun, he'd spend so much time trying to unstick the barrel from the tape or wincing at the ripped out leg hair that he'd

You could be right, but I hope not. If anything I think that would only make me hate her more for stealing a moment that clearly belongs to Maggie.
