Based on what? I explained my reasoning.

They didn't have the tanker, #1, and the rock quarry would have expoded.

Well, you do have to realize we're talking about zombies - something that is a work of science fiction.

No, I mean that I was answering the question of why not build a fire in a limestone quarry?

I have a fun experiment for you. Build a fire pit with limestone, and use it.

They're zombies, and you are giving them critical thinking skills. It's been established they are attracted to light and noise. Enough already.

In previous reviews, when everything he wants to happen in the show happens, he's thrilled. When the plot doesn't go as he wants it to, he's down on it. How do you go from this season and production has been great so far, to this show has no consistency in the span of like 3 episodes?

That is the objection to that scene even though Daryl said let's draw them to one spot and take them out, and not, I know, fire will kill them all.

Except that he hates it and wants it to be a completely different show.

Well, the original comment I responded to seemed a little hyperbolic, and I responded to that. I don't see people excusing it for being "dumb." Some people liked the episode, some didn't.

"Why did the fire attract them?" Because it always does?

Well, if you watched the previous episodes, a freight truck driven by the wolves crashed into the wall back in Alexandria and the horn blared and distracted some of the herd. That's why they ended up back at the walls.

Seems like the reviewer's time would better be spent writing fan-fiction to show us how it should be done.

That dude's got some serious street cred now.

No, that person legitimately hates the show and is stretching. There have been several "why did it get dark" comments.

I certainly don't think the show's been consistently dumb, and I don't really see that prevailing argument here with people defending the show.

Because the sun went down?

I don't get why people like Japanimation. But some people dig it.

Sure, if it were in its 1st season. We're heading into it's 6th year and if you're still sitting here wanting it to be something other whan what it is, then I think that the "dumb" inference should be shifted elsewhere.

The "mom" scene, I think, was more about foreshadowing and building the suspense of the whole scene. I mean, when they came back in this episode, they were walking through the middle of the street. It didn't start exactly where they left off.
