The hipster in me just cannot get over the franchise appropriation. Great, now we get the Fargo and Hannibal TV show! And it's funny, I was going to follow that up with hypothetical movie to tv crossovers they will do next, but the ones that came to mind they have done. "Next they'll do a gladiator TV show… damn,…

The arbitrary moving of a team was from a massive market, LA, to St. Louis, I don't think of the reverse would be stupid at all. Better yet, move Jacksonville, they already have two teams in Florida and one in Georgia. They won't expand as long as they are in the business of football. It will take assurances to the…

Way to go Teti!! Seriously, screw your record, give us the losing prediction to close out the season!

I know right? Keep it up!!

Not to get gross about it, but they really should have run into a guy with a harem by now.

Yeah, I just don't buy the entire premise of "kill your way to peace and freedom!"

Jumping to torture is ridiculous. How about start off by asking and being nice. Glenn and Maggie would have given them up in no time if they didn't perceive a threat.

Killing a group of well armed, well trained soldiers who are clearly not defending any civilians or anything is probably a good move. What are they doing with all those guns in the middle of the road? I would have killed those guys, or at least robbed them, they definitely were a threat.

True. Women can't be fun! They're nagging bitches, every last one of them.

He seemed nice enough to me. Had some eccentricities. But at the beginning he had a nice secure town where people could live normal lives. How does he even get to that point if he's randomly torturing the off people on the street? He doesn't, his established personality is changed to advance the story, which is lazy…

So on the one hand it's bring peace and order to the world. On the other it's have everyone live a life that is nasty, brutish and short. But you get to make your own decisions before a crusading army massacres your family!

That's how season 4 started. Really, they all make such horrible decisions all the time anyway, it doesn't really matter who the show arbitrarily puts in charge of making these decisions. Let's see the last, arguably best season so far. Fight ten zombies or drive a bus off a bridge? Drive a bus off the bridge. Stand…

But he was a nice guy when people first met him. Power-hungry yes, but he was about building his community with him at the head. Declaring war on the Rickites, just attacking two random people he meets for no reason. Those two actions go against his character motivation, as established.

Don't even try to defend his torture of Glenn and Maggie, he takes in EVERYONE, then tortures these two no questions asked? Please.

Yes, that's exactly right. They create a character, give him motivations, character traits, etc. Then they have him do something out of character to advance a story and just say deal with it. If a character's motivations and actions are completely out of whack then I will complain

Very much agreed, it's supposed to be global. Heck even like Timbuktu during the Arab trading heydays and Mansa Musa in Mali.

Oh that was just the showrunners gearing up to make you hate a person. You notice it a lot in action movies. Not convinced the bad guy is really that bad? Let's make him shoot a child for no reason. The Governor, for instance, goes completely out of character to go out of his way to attack Maggie and Glenn. This sets…

How has Rick succeeded as a leader, at all? He has divided the group, repeatedly. He makes awful decisions all the time. He's mentally unstable, and at one point just stops killing zombies to farm. The groups should have taken Herschels stuff, or farm entirely, and killed the zombies in the barn. Rick had them camping…

So Shane wanted to take the group to an easily defensible area with plenty of weapons. Rick wants them to what? Scavenge for food and bumble around the woods? Seems like Shane had it figured out to me.

Last season was a seemingly unending amount of horseshit. Glenn's decision to go through that tunnel, then climb over the wreckage, almost made me stop watching entirely. Then Maggie fires a bunch of bullets into the ceiling and of course it collapses perfectly on the zombies in front of them. It was one ludicrous…
