If this is the first time that something in this show made no sense to you, then I genuinely feel bad for you. Characters and events in this show have behaved inexplicably from the beginning.

Also, did their zombie smell wear off? They weren’t getting attacked before but then suddenly all the zombies realizes “wait, these people aren’t like us.”

Totally agree about Carl. That was just absurd. No human would take a bullet to the head like that and just quietly stand there (to the people who would argue, “He was in shock," shock doesn’t work that way).

Very small? Sure if you change the entire reason. He gets killed because he is screaming and crying. Y’know. MAKING NOISE. The thing that attracts zombies. That doesn’t happened. He just gets killed because he stops moving... Which makes no fucking sense. And no one bothers to try and move him, or drag him, or pick

I’ve never read the comics, and my complaint is not that they changed it from the source. My complaint is that in the show, it was dumb. You might want to work on your reading comprehension.

I don’t mean to say that what happens on the show doesn’t make sense in terms of the themes they are advancing or the tone and mood of the show. Those are why I keep watching. I’m just saying that the characters get themselves in trouble by being very stupid and they escape from impossible situations by doing the

YESSSSSSS! No one mentions this. So if he’s not talking when he get’s eaten, why the hell didn’t everyone get eaten when they were talking? This episode is the worst and I think I liked the farm more than this nonsensical BS.

Yeah, that too. I guess that wasn’t enough for the zombies, but standing still and whispering hours later was just too obvious.

Can we take a moment to recall how the midseason finale ended with Sam going “Mom? MOOOOOM?” and we were all like “SHHHHHH!!!!! SHUTTHEHELLUPSERIOUSLY!!!!”

Shock doesn’t override the basics psychics of getting hit in the eye. If someone punches you in the face you’re going to move a little off your feet even if you don’t fall down. But you seem to think you can get SHOT in the face and just stand there as if it was a gentle summer breeze.

You think someone gets shot IN THE EYEBALL and doesn’t register even an “ow” or an “oomph”? OK then.

Actually, no. I didn’t hate this episode, and I am a huge fan, probably know more WD than most of the people here (save for the video games...I wish I had time) But this episode suffered to me more from the pacing of things than anything else. Sam’s death could have been done 1000% better, and I wrote a little earlier

What’s amazing to me is how you can trace the decline to AMCs handling of directors and episode funding. The same network that found extraordinary success and critical praise with “Breaking Bad” just totally decided to dick around with “TWD” for some reason.

Well there’s no need to be a dick about it, the guy/gal makes a valid point. Its not like the article is saying ooh there are rumours about a big death or deaths and who do you think it will be???

The only reason they sneak up on anyone is because, like many monster movies, the monster is invisible and inaudible unless the camera can see it. Also, the monster can teleport any time the camera can’t see it.

Case in point: the very near death of Glenn. Like, the dude literally just blew his brains out in front of you. He's capital D- Dead. Why try to keep him from falling? I understand it was probably more an emotional reaction than a logical/intellectual reaction, and that's kind of my point. At some point, everyone has

I’m not sure if I love this show or hate it. I watch every week and talk about it endlessly online, with friends and family but I feel like I’m complaining about the stupid shit that takes place far more than I ever talk about what makes the show cool.

This is everything. I’ve long since stopped caring about the show and hardly ever watch it any more for exactly this reason - week after week of people doing really, really stupid shit. Lazy writing.

But not Daryl. Daryl is not supposed to die of stupid.

Don’t characters die regularly due to stupidity on this show? I mean, just off the top of my head they offed dozens of redshirts at the prison because they were apparently too stupid to sleep with their doors closed in a world where someone having a heart attack at night means a killer (and soon, multiple killers) is
