The Walking Dead - Official Thread

When the Governor got the bag of guns wasn't that the bag Rick left behind? :nerd:

Yes that is Rick's bag from Atlanta but remember Andrea was carrying the bag when she was leaving the farm and when she was split from the group. Andrea must have had the bag on her when she went to Woodbury

Glenn is at war and cannot be the new leader. Rick replied that Hershel must take the lead. Hershel asks what he is doing there;and Rick confesses that he has seen Lori and Shane. Hershel says that is only the manifestation of his fault and that needs to rest because the group needed him. Rick refuses. Michonne, still around the bus,watch the men talking.

The group observes that they had lost everything they've built, walkers roam the grounds. Rick turns and looks into the distance, thinking about what just happened. They are at war. End of episode.


Ah damn I didn't want to read it... but yo next episode sounds like it will be top 3 from this spoiler.

One thing I will say is that there is no way they can go to war with the Governor or the whole town of Woodbury because they are out outmanned, outgunned, and they will catch the fade quickly.
 
on a better note, what is the analogy behind laurie's ghost? the baby crying when rick holds her? 

I think Rick knows the baby is Shane's and can't build that connection to lil' asskicker. He's also probably conflicted because he loved Laurie, obviously, but feels completely betrayed by her and will have to live with this confliction the rest of his life or every time he looks at the baby and that would drive any man crazy.

That's what I think.
 
Yes that is Rick's bag from Atlanta but remember Andrea was carrying the bag when she was leaving the farm and when she was split from the group. Andrea must have had the bag on her when she went to Woodbury

Yeah you're right. Thanks
 
dood, breaking seasons in half and making viewers wait MONTHS is going to make everyone HYPER-CRITICAL....its not a good format for a tv show...

Im just glad breaking bad is ending, cant get with these long drawn out breaks in between AMC shows...
AMC loves screwing over shows that aren't Mad Men. They don't give a damn about the shows or the audience.
 
Love this show but hate the Governor and town plot line.  Can't wait for someone to cap the Gov and the show to move on to something better.

exactly! I don't know why people like the governor plot, when they're the same people
That hated the farm plot. It's basically the exact same thing.


At least in the prison plot, they still kill a bunch of walkers.
 
Took me five days but I've completely caught up on 28 episodes of The Walking Dead. Fantastic show, completely not what I expected it to be, glad I gave it a second shot.
 
Rick has obviously lost his marbles...the person he keeps seeing is probably Lori although I hope it's someone else because it being Lori would be too easy.

The best transformation of character has been Glenn's. He's become a man who stands up for himself and a pseudo tough guy, unlike anything he was in season 1 or start of 2, we can thank Maggie for that.

Daryl is my second favorite at this point. His tough guy IDC about anyone exterior is melted away with what he did for Sophia, Carrol and keeping ***-Kicker Aka Judith alive.

I hate that they killed Shane, dumbest move, there was a lot more stoyline left for him he was a major part of the group. I know everyone thinks they've replaced him in terms of the tension an villain with Merle and Governor but I wish he was still around.

The toughest scene was Lori dying and having the baby, watching her hug Carl and crying, rough. Carl's become a little bandit ready to kill which is excellent, no time for being a little kid anymore.

Love the show, excited to chat it up with yall.
 
The show is about the people really....not the zombies. Dude who said it earlier is right,the zombies are the back drop. I actual love alot of the dialogue about how society is decaying right before them and they don't even realize it (except for Dale last season).

well said
 
Y'all gotta remember that it was just the mid-season premiere and not a premiere to a new season.

The last episode before the mid-season break was full of action so you should have known the
next episode would be somewhat of a filler episode.

Also don't blame Frank Darabont or the writers of TWD for this - breaking it up into two parts is all AMC. They did the same with Breaking Bad and Mad Men. They are trying to make the most money.

It works, they broke records with the premiere on Sunday.
 
They need new revelations on the show to keep me interested. I wanna know more about the zombie virus, and more about other places that might exist like goverment centers etc. This woodbury bull is so uninteresting. The ONLY interesting thing about the show is the feeling of escape. The feeling of trying to escape keeps me on the edge of my seat, not people bickering over stupid bull. Rick surrounded by thousands of zombies in the street and being holed up in an ARMY TANK, and somehow managing to escape is way better than them sitting around arguing about crap.

I wanna see glen hot wiring cars and leading zombies on distracting chases

I wanna see darryl save somebody with his crossbow

The main characters need to be going on adventures and doing macguyver type stuff using their cunning and wit.

actually nevermind with this, I'm just being impatient, I'll wait till the final episode before I give this show the boot
 
You guys have to relax. Things will heat up. But you have to realize that the writers are in it for the long haul. The show can't last without fillers. No show can.

Well the season is almost over, so things have to heat up fast. There's nothing wrong with filler episodes, but the Walking Dead's filler episodes are usually bad. Just look at Season 2. You had little to no character development despite them being on the farm that long. Its a show that is poorly paced and even I think that they need to cut a few episodes from each season much like HBO does with its series'. I don't think this is a series that should have 16 eps/season like this one does.

High ratings =/= good TV, but you knew that.
 
Walking Dead's problem is, every time things slow down, they expose how thin the characters are drawn and how weak the dialogue is written. I mean, that's just what the show settled into after the first season.

I think most people will be satisfied again when the tension and zombie-killing ramp back up.

I understand what you're saying, I honesty do. But the thing is...fans DONT want the zombies to be the backdrop. THey werent the backdrop of season 1, they were the focus. And thats why so many people fell in love with the show.

Surviving the zombies.

Now its surviving their own tormented minds and...Oh, Hello zombie...occasionally.

Season 1 was about Rick finding his family first and foremost. Once they found the group, it was the conflicts with Merle, leaving him then going back to him, and the drama with Shane and Lori. Season 2, the most conflict was finding Sophia, Andrea's decision to (not) off herself, merging with Herschel and family, and the walkers in the barn.

The zombies are there to set the stage which causes people to revert from a life of civility and humanity, like someone else said when Dale gave the speech in season 2 about the kid.

Most episodes DON'T contain a ton of zombies if you're paying attention, just a couple. In season one, there are zombies all in downtown ATL to establish the fact that the cities are death traps, but other than that they're really an afterthought until the herd comes to move them off of their campgrounds.

This ain't Resident Evil.
 
Glen's "transformation" is a bit weak to me. He's just mad he thought Maggie got raped and that she was violated and he was completely helpless. He's talking about revenge and all this bs but it's like he doesn't even realize what he's capable of.

Son got taken down by a one armed man while having backup, got beat up/tortured with no way of escaping. Son got that battery in his back cuz he took down a walker by himself after getting beat up. To me this looks more like a meltdown than anything, they've all panicked so much nobody has had time to full let out some anger over the situation. They've been too busy coping. Now we got something that has pushed a few characters to a point they may not return and I wouldn't be surprised if they died for it and given how the show is I see Glen dying before Rick.

For anybody who has read the comic you kinda see what role they're giving Glen.

Maggie told Glen that the Governor didn't touch her.

I think Glen is just upset that he couldn't protect her himself and instead of him going with Rick
to get Daryl back, Maggie had to put herself @ risk by going back to Woodbury.
