I am still loving Fargo but I found last episode and this episode even more so a little too heavy-handed, yeah. Last episode I didn't really buy Dodd's daughter's speech about missing the sixties, and this episode quite a bit of the dialogue felt more speech-y than natural.

No one on this show has an Atlanta area accent. Maybe T-Dawg did.

Uh, Maggie is not a US citizen and she does not sound Georgian at all. Not at all.

Where do they get their skinny jeans and other up-to-the-minute fashions?

He does. He's like a damaged child.

It would be nice for once to see a female lead like that hook up with a male lead.

Was there some Latin thing that Reg quoted to Everybody Hates Budding Young City Planner Chris? Was it a callback to that?

Rick came through the gate and started speechifying. It was pretty bad.

Yeah. It's impossible to know if the writers had planned to surprise us with the fact that he's alive, or with the fact that he's dead, because it's impossible to tell what they intended us to take away from that "death" scene.

They should totally get together. I thought they had a cool, adult kind of chemistry last season. Or whatever season the Carl eating pudding on the roof season was.

This comment should have more upvotes.

I really got the feeling they edited heavily with this episode. It almost felt like different episodes cobbled together. Did you notice how when Rick's Lady killed that zombie Denise was hanging out with the onlookers? When we had just seen her in despair on the infirmary floor, saying she wasn't even thinking about…

I laughed pretty hard when Maggie was suddenly like "I'm giving up. Glenn's dead." Girl gets over things lightning fast. At least she remembered he existed at all.

Whose character got developed? What did we learn about anyone that we didn't already know?

The second they split up — episode two? — I knew it was a season-long deal. I'm tired of it.

The show's worst flaw is its inability to get fear across. The characters skip too quickly to the "philosophizing about fear" phase.

It's not too many characters. It's bad writing. The Alexandrians wouldn't have been acting that way because Carol wouldn't have let them. Instead of moving the story forward the writers pretend Carol doesn't exist for an episode so they can have the Alexandrians act the way they need them to for thematic reasons.…

Is it an unfair or knee-jerk reaction to ask why the Alexandrians in that first scene all acted as if they knew that Rick knew about the Wolf attack? I mean, there was no "What happened here?" Or "Omg you won't believe what happened to us!" Everyone just went straight to speechifying.

I think he might be genuinely warming up to what he sees as the Ricktator?

Definitely up to something. They aren't making him look like a little heroin addict for nothing.
