Another entertaining ep, although a bit dark for my taste with killing sprees that would rival a "Superjail" climax.

"Hustler", as opposed to the 1% crowd.

Last week I commented that the show threw logic and common sense to the wind and behaved like the old movies where folks hear strange noises venture into a dark basement or woods on a whim as a cheap plot driver. Well, this week followed though with that thought and made it true reality with Madison hearing a noise in

I believe he was referring to those born into a certain level of wealth or just upper middle class folks in general, as oppose to folks like him, non legitimate types that choose to steal or do some other shady things to obtain those benefits.

Alicia and Chris actions were more examples of illogical behavior. His mom and her brother are gone, and this is their reaction- bizarre.

Assuming the folks had sensibility (absent from this show), they would broadcast intermittently for a couple hours a day to share any updates or warnings/requests/offers for help. Of course they would barricade themselves in as protection from the infected and try to draw less attention to their operation by not

I used Madison to point out an example, but the entire show and cast are written as lacking even basic logic/common sense.

Don't forget survivalist people with pirate radio and gas generators- similar to "I am Legend". It would be more localized but in a place like LA, there should be several broadcasting sites.

They sped up everything way too fast. They had the power grid failing almost immediately with all the lights shutting down during the initial riots. Reality is if everyone just vanished off the Earth, the power would still be running 2 - 3 days just from current oil in the tank.

I'm still trying to rationalize how a scrawny drug addict was able to overpower a guy built like a football player or pose any kind of physical challenge at all.

"But Madison can't handle not knowing, so she crazily, almost unbelievably, uses wire cutters to get through the perimeter…"

Which is the point I was making in the first place.

There are a whole spectrum of actions people can do "rationally" if the scene is properly set up versus lets just stick this absurd behavior here to drive the plot line along.

With all the money now going into TV shows and script writing, why do they seem to go out of their way to destroy any sense of realism by making the characters do absurd things that just wouldn't happen which makes it impossible to get immersed in the show?

My point isn't that people shouldn't comment, it's to have a more broad perspective of what it is they are commenting on because there are many here calling what they think are "B/B+" shows average or subpar simply because they've been spoiled by the string of shows they would rate as "A". It's something to the effect

Come on, it's on what is known as "free TV", which is paid by advertising, rather than we as individuals. You don't have to pay for cable as you can still get "classic free TV" using a digital antenna.

I don't understand those ranking some episodes with a relative "thumbs down" because it wasn't "perfect". Here we are getting a free product and folks want to be connoisseurs to point out things they dislike as if we are now all experts.
This isn't like a factory churning out products and all that's needed is the

New experiences would replace his old experiences, so he would likely be a different person. His "old self" was clearly in distress and not okay with it which came out in "Tiny Rick's" songs.

That would mean a "reset" of the clock for him to grow into the old Rick which would take decades, and he'd be a different "Rick" because of his new experiences.

The problem was his true personality was being "suppressed" by Tiny Rick's adolescent thoughts and desires. This was only after a couple of days - if it had been allowed to continue, the suppression could be permanent. Would you want your "teen self" deciding the "adult you" was a drag and proceed to try to erase
