Correction, they look like real silicone ones lol. But yeah, my husband was marveling at the job those makeup folks did on that chest piece.

I'm wondering if Margaret and Tara didn't pull some strings with a complicit doctor to get him to say that.

I was starting to think I was the only one who enjoys Tara. I agree with pretty much everything you said — as usual :)

I think it's easy, when you are watching so many seasons of a show,
separated by months in between over the course of several years, to
forget what an evil bitch Gemma is.

This is a no-win situation for Sarah. I agree that getting in between a child and the person they
love almost inevitably causes a rift between the parent and child, but
Sarah should have really legit concerns that aren't necessarily related
to her own experience. The warning signs in that relationship have
nothing…

Enjoyed this episode (although, in fairness, I enjoy almost every episode of Top Chef, so I'm not the most discerning commenter), but I do wish we got to see Tom and Hugh do a spontaneous battle when Hugh threw down that challenge!

This is a show that desperately needs episodes like this every so often. It can't be this morbid doom and gloom and dread all the time. It's good to have an episode where nothing goes terribly wrong, you get lots of laughs, and you get to see the men of mayhem creating some good ole fashion mayhem instead of just…

It's already on the ABC website shop. It was the first thing I checked after I watched the episode.

It was nice to see Michonne on a horse.  I can't remember, but I don't think we've seen people making much use of horses since the first episode.  

As soon as I saw Melissa McBride's name in the regular credits, I got happy.

And why wouldn't they have more people on fence duty, spread out around the perimeter so that you don't get 100s of zombies at a time hitting the same part of the fence.  Argh!

The minute Carol used Axel as a human shield last season, I had a whole new appreciation for her.

Dal's post-apocalyptic 'do is getting less and less plausible each episode.  Unless one of the survivors is a former hairstylist and Daryl is letting her have her way with him, nobody grows hair that way. 

I think something's going on with Rick and not wanting to kill people/zombies.  He finds that gun early on, takes out the clip and haphazardly throws it in the wheelbarrow.  Then Herschel has to lecture him about not going out with a gun.  Then he doesn't kill her.  Given the "Previously On Walking Dead" segment where…

Ditto this.  And have a couple of DESSERT recipes on hand, too!!  The inevitable dessert disasters on this show drive me crazy.

Gervase would tell you it's pronounced koodoos :)

@avclub-2bf7bb353a1107a5d5c41d1ff4c624cb:disqus I suspect they have been showing so much RI this season just to set up what happened tonight with Brad.  I think they were trying to fill-in Brad's rise and fall narrative by showing more of the Blame-the-DBag game.

Sometimes when I read the reviews and see the grades, I think, "Am I the only person who still likes this show?"  Then I read the comments section and feel a little better that I'm not all alone.  I find this show entertaining as shit.

Agree with Lily here.  Also, there was a bunch of Irish-themed promotional swag in the warehouse so it's not unreasonable to think that the delivery guy had one of the pens - not necessarily the same pen that the other guy wrote with.

I love Tyson.  He's so sarcastic but not in a showy way - that's the best way I can explain it.  I think he's whip smart and his comments about not taking the game so seriously and how it ruins some peoples' lives was really apt.  And I loved that Rachel told him not to trade. I just wish he had bulked up a little bit…
