To be honest, I thought it was ludicrous and badly-handled in the comics as well. Kirkman has a habit of going in the direction of what he considers 'edgy', but isn't a good enough writer to pull of without it reeking of a bunch of teenagers going 'coooool' as they read it. Even now it comes across as juvenilia, and…

I wonder if these storylines focusing on just one or two groups are simply a money-saving tactic. Do regulars get paid less if they're not physically in an episode?

Judging by my local store, there's still a market for Dukes of Hazzard DVD box sets. Shit that aims low will always have some kind of audience.

He'd made so little an impact before now that I didn't even realise it *was* Bob. Thought it was a new survivor, then realised, "Oh, that's right, the drunk guy." What's he had, four scenes before this all up, none of which offered any character depth or the suggestion he wasn't just making up the numbers to be…

You know, her hiding under the bodies as the zombie feet walked around her could have made for a hell of a suspenseful scene, instead of hearing about it second-hand. But the show seems more concerned with piano playing and bottles of coke.

Marlene is a monster. She's a terrorist in denial that the fireflies are almost wiped out, that her cause has been lost, and the world can never go back to what it was. She's willing to sacrifice Ellie because it's her final grab for *power*, which she's rationalising through the noble ideals of 'saving humanity'.

Except it's possible to get through that section without alerting or killing any of them.

No, no, no, no and no.

Why are they cheap or unfair?

I've *never* seen a story, before or since, that goes off the rails to the degree that Indigo Prophecy does. I didn't bother with Heavy Rain or Beyond 2 Souls. IP is *that* terrible.

My yawned guess is that mankind is the real monster.

"She finds confidence when she gets a regular spot on The Corny Collins Show, lands the cutest guy in town, and even gets an endorsement deal for plus-size clothing boutique The Hefty Hideaway before becoming Miss Auto Show 1963."

The Ones Where Every Zombie Had Great Makeup.

AMC is making a spin off. Hopefully it's better.

Whenever people suggest they bring Clementime into the show, I just think "Leave her alone!"

Down here: Passion Pop. A sparkling wine $2 a bottle. Known colloquially as 'The 2 Buck Chuck.'

Even better, 2 episodes later, Abraham and co can stumble across zombies feasting on the slaughtered remnants of the community, and off-handedly cap the zombie corpse of the the son, and the impact of the moment could have actual weight based upon what the audience knows that the characters don't.

Ooh, love triangle! I can't wait for that one!

Did you miss the back half of Season 2?

Bad character development: a character sits and spews their backstory and motivation as a monologue.
