The only reason I watch this show is so I can keep up with what they're talking about in the podcast. If they really do stop podcasting this show I'll have no reason to watch. I hope they don't.

Perhaps he's better as a staff writer but he doesn't need the reins. I've always wondered if he has been the showrunner for as long as he has because he's a "yes" man, because it's gone downhill for going on 3 seasons now. Some of these decisions and the places it's going are rookie mistakes and for as many viewers…

Yeah, me too.

It's almost like they (the show runner and writers) try to NOT do what they're good at and try really hard to be something that they've never been good at.

If GoT was constructed like TWD we'd have a Delores (I have no idea how to spell this) Ed episode, Fat Walda would've gotten her own episode, the Freys would have an episode, the Karstarks would get one, then we wouldn't see John Snow, a Lannister, or Dany for about 5 episodes.

There's Richonne, which I'm personally not really feeling. Then Carol hooked up with that one guy, not Tobin but the other construction worker looking guy. Rosita's banging Spencer, which I don't understand because Abe's not around for her to piss off by banging Spencer any longer. I think Ezekial and Carol kinda…

Like Phoebe running thru Central Park almost.

How? Just reading thru these comments and browsing the comments on TWD FB page show that the majority of viewers really, really disliked this episode. I don't know how it's rating better than a D right now.

Oh I don't know, I just know enough to expect a forgettable episode next week followed by a good finale and then a pretty good premier to start the next half of the season in 2017.

You and me both buddy.

I'd forgotten about that.

You hit on something there, why in the world do the ladies still go crazy for him? He looks like he reeks hideously. Even when they had showers in Alexandria he CHOSE to be dirty. Ugh. Maybe I overthink this stuff too much.

I remembered who she was, I just didn't care. She's the sparest of the spare characters, imo. Ok, maybe Olivia is more spare but Tara's up there.

I don't think he killed anyone. If I remember right, Glenn told him not to and then Glenn did all the dirty work. I guess Heath was guilty by association, though, and he went right along with the plan.

Pretty safe in that assumption indeed.

You're right. Michonne is out and about currently, it would've been way better if she'd come across the ladies camp, been invited to stay and then had to decide whether to leave, and question whether or not to tell Rick and the gang about the weapons. Tara could've just shown back up at Alexandria and said Heath got…

Supposedly it's a big secret and only the show writers know what PPP stands for. Which means we'll probably never see the card again and Tara will never mention PPP.

I think they read the comments left by fanboys and are totally clueless about how most of the viewers feel. The way they defend their decisions and say how the fans approve show me that they're out of touch.

I agree. He's only around because he's DILF #1 and they're trying to hang onto the female and gay male fans of Daryl, because he drags down the story and serves no purpose, and he hasn't for a while now.

Skip next week, too, and come back for the midseason finale. Check out the 7B premier, then check out again and wait for the 7B finale. That's all you really need.
