This episode was directed by Scott Gimple, pretty easy to see why it sucked.

Good one. I was thinking the exact same thing when I watching carol light up. It would be more realistic to see her lighting up a joint as I'm sure Marijuana would be very to easy to grow in her backyard.

I think it would have been better writing for Morgan to have killed Richard when he was alone with him in the room. More shock value after the scene of Richard giving his speech and then more camera time focusing on Morgan showing emotions on his face as he comes to grip with what he has done.

Could it be that Andrew Lincoln is getting bored with the role?

You mean you didnt like the CGI deer? Or the rehash of thinking a character was dead (i.e. Glen) because we saw zombies eating something from a bad angle? The only thing missing was leaving Ricks supposed death as a mid-season cliffhanger. Thank goodness it was resolved in minutes.

Michonne had no qualms about knocking Rick out when he went over the deep end. You'd think at least one person from the Kingdom would have picked up the staff and hit Morgan over the head.

Yes I was quite upset over this scene as it seem completely unrealistic. These people just stood there looking horrified for like 5 minutes while the Captain of the Kings Guard gets choked by a relatively new member of the Kingdom?

You mean when Christians were fighting against Muslim aggression? I don't think those times ever really ended.

A Republican is a Democrat with two or more kids.

Doritos are a product marketed to children, so they make the perfect gateway snack to introduce children to the joys of homosexuality.
