It'll actually be random spooky nihilist guy from the Saviors who chatted the group up the whole episode. It'll help establish how CRAZY and UNHINGED Negan really is!

I thought the same thing! Just drive around the inconveniencing log fire. Maybe you'll find their SFX guy behind the logs as well. That Savior has been itching for the moment he could demonstrate his worth to the group

I began to wonder if it would have been smarter for Rick et al. to double back on some old routes, given how much time the Saviors would have to spend traveling back and forth across routes. They probably could have caught them out on one of their old roadblocks

Or just the ratings. Potato, potahto I guess

Nothing says likable like nihilistic ramblings on the road while a bunch of ominous looking people either silently stand by a roadblock or creepily whistle in the dark of the woods

I'm waiting for the commercials advertising the 1-900 number we can call to vote on which character gets the bat

The moment those legs spontaneously burst into flames, I asked out loud, "Are these guys suddenly fucking wizards?" Because that is the only explanation for how they could pull off all of those perfectly timed stunts and magically transport themselves around all of these back roads in large groups ahead of Rick et al.

I thought it was more an issue that the ones who showed up to the Guild meeting were level five and lower. HOWEVER, there were higher level villains, but they just weren't bothering with the Guild anymore. That's why they had to bend over backwards to get Wide Whale on the council so they could start bringing in the…

I mean, I won't say that I won't watch another season of the X-files, but I hope we get a bit more than a hodge podge of half-formed ideas and plotlines thrust together with a couple knowing winks at the audience

I've been reading it. It goes in a very different direction than that ultimately, but yeah, it's more about the mythology than the relationships for the most part. I feel like the characters are well done on an individual basis, but the interactions are pretty limited to "Here's this other thing we've gotta deal with"

Yes

Absolutely atrocious episode. It was like Carter just put all of the ideas he's had for light-hearted meta episodes in a blender then smeared it all over a news page with articles on suicide bombing and refugee crises.

That's Doctor John Basil Disco Puntastic to you, sir

Sometimes, a cigar is just a cigar, a pipe is just a pipe, and a running gag about Pod's sexual prowess is just comedic relief.

Well, the stuff in the North should make more of an impact next season or the season after (if they're committed to splitting the next book up into two seasons) with it becoming pretty damn significant after (in the 4th/5th book).

How could that many people not be emotionally invested in the games?

@avclub-1541c9b9ca360baff3dad1baa4c9f8e6:disqus Are you serious with the whole synthetic/organic thing not being important? The entire game, everyone kept bringing up how Shepard was almost entirely machine when Cerberus brought him back. I constantly had conversations with EDI over the distinction between organic and…

I must be the only person who felt that Harbinger antagonism was pretty irrelevant. I mean, what did he really say to Shepard beyond, "This hurts you!" and "You just don't get it!" and "Assuming control of this blah blah blah" Harbinger was indistinguishable from the Reaper armada, as he rightly should be, with the…

1. Not at all.
2. In no way.
3. I wasn't all that pissed. Just kind of disappointed that the epilogue was so minimal. But different strokes. A friend of mine liked being able to fill in the blanks and make that story his own, while I wanted to see a little snippets reflecting the consequences of my decisions.
