Here’s the thing—Gimpel and Kirkman don’t care. They don’t think of these things. They just pull plot and characters and extras out of their arses. Most complex shows have ‘bibles’ in which the place, Alexandria, is sketched out, referred to, kept consistent. This show doesn’t bother, because they’re lousy at this.…

Even in those scenes such as when Rick frantically looks around to discover a red balloon, we only saw four sets of one, two, and three people. About eight total. The place always looked empty, even when it was supposed to look populated.

I have no doubt that after six seasons of zero chemistry between them Gimpel will decide that Rick and Michonne are really madly in love.

What’s needed are intermediate zombies with some actual brainpower.

Strange, though, that most people are going with the “grab the zombie, and only then, stab the zombie.” Bladed weapons would be routinely getting stuck in walker bits, and while a knife cleanly in and out works well enough, it often involves actually making close-in physical contact with a ravening ghoul.

Are you really trying to take solace in the idea that you’re a shitty coward, BUT EVERYONE ELSE IS A SHITTY COWARD, TOO!!

“Hater”? Donna’s just another prattler. You didn’t like her show, she scolded you, and now all your objections are “hate” because you’re a “hater.” Jesus. Where do these people come from?

Well, there’s stupid, and there’s ‘season 6 TWD’ stupid, which is a whole ‘nother level of stupid. For the latter stupid, this was perfectly acceptable. For the latter stupid, a guy with two one children, one a toddler, to run out in a fit of pique and risk his own life (and, soon enough, the life of everyone who…

You treasure what’s worth treasuring.

Thought that worked pretty well, actually. A very vigorous, pulpy culmination to the slaughter. Hey, it beats their all but invariably boring static camera and character placement.

Did I actually bother to defend you a ways back in the thread?

Never mind. You’re insane.

No, you’re right. Carl has tried to be a standup guy for at least the last season and a half. Maybe more. I can’t even recall offhand the last time he sneered at his dad.

Speaking of which, did anyone else startle at Denise bolting into the infirmary and demanding “how are my patients doing??”

Once again you’ve misread obvious and basic material.

Au contraire, son. The last half of season five, though uneven, included some fine, fine television in its unique setting, then plummeted to unseen levels of noxiousness. It really has gotten horrifyingly bad, like a sudden death no one can quite believe.

It’s an infinitely stupid scene from an infantile director who didn’t get even halfway decent for another couple of decades.

Having showered in a pretty heavy rain, once, i can assure the assembled that even that level of rain won’t wash soap off.

Still, we saw Glenn toss a fire cocktail some distance from himself when zeds had him trapped. Did they know where he was? I think they did. Nonetheless, they wandered over to the fire.

Not to worry. “minimie13" is an emotional infant. Forget about her.
