I think you're giving the writers too much credit. Feels to me like they have no long term plan besides the comic book plotlines, so one of them decided to take a boring secondary character and make her into an open-ended cliffhanger. A year later, another writer grafts on the governor 2: hospital bugaloo.

'So cool and above it' was the original title of 'Atlas Shrugged.'

They went wherever their meager production budget took them.

You just gave me a great idea- a Breaking Bad remake but all parts are played by Jeff Goldblum. 'ah, i'm, ah, ah, the one who, ah, obviously, ah knocks.'

if by 'bad ass' you mean 'bad singer,' my ears agree wholeheartedly.

On the plus side, you get 40 acres and a zombie mule when you're eventually freed.

The show has developed beth? Beth has so little character that even her (supposed) sister has completely forgotten about her. All I know about her is that apparently she likes to sing. *shudders*

Lies- the true action lies in farm arguments and zombie-less zombie apocalypses. Bonus points for arguments about chores and whole episodes devoted to well water quality.

Seasons 2 through 4 were the television equivalent of a brain aneurysm. On the other hand, I found season 1 to be fun. The highest praise I can lavish on season 5 is that it's watchable, although the writing is, at best, uninspired.

Sadly, the lollipop is a better actor than Beth.

Obama lied that we could keep our rapey cop if we were happy with him. #ImpeachZombieObama.

Worst beth-isode EVER.

Does 'Cajun style' mean breaded and deep fried? Unfortunately, everything I know about Cajun culture comes from Popeye's and 'Treme.'

Dawn is under-written, like almost all the characters on twd. On the other hand. she's pretty consistent with the show's Bad Guy Formula™: 'I currently have an extreme, misguided world view, but I was originally a normal person and went through some hard times and now this is how I survive.'

Speak for yourself- the argument concerning Tide vs All was television at its finest.

When beth said 'i sing,' my sphincter clenched up.

Worst managed hospital ever- it stocked 2 years worth of supplies before the outbreak. People, listen up: inventory carrying costs bite into your bottom line… and turn you into zombies.

I thought the second doctor died from the inevitable embolism resulting from *crushing a pill into solution* and injecting it. Doctor nick must've learned his medicine from Twilo and a jar of ketamine in the early aughts.

The real, lurking horror is the possibility of Beth singing again.

Zombifooooooornia!
