inkman Posted March 17, 2014 Report Share Posted March 17, 2014 Lizzie is f'ed up! Sociopath in apocalyptic times. I thought one might excel in that environment but clearly this one didn't. Watching Lizzy and Carol walk away from the house reminded me of old yeller. I was yelling "put her down Carol!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skaught Posted March 17, 2014 Report Share Posted March 17, 2014 The two girls killed...intense! Didn't think the older one was that delusional. Three girls killed, no? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sabills Posted March 17, 2014 Report Share Posted March 17, 2014 "No Tyrese, she's my dog, I've gotta put her down. Just think of the rabbits Lizzie..." I know I'm crossing a couple literature lines, but still. Had to happen. I yelled "what the ######?" when they came back and found the little one dead and lizzie covered in blood. Psychopath.

shrader Posted March 17, 2014 Report Share Posted March 17, 2014 They could have ended the series right there and I'd be happy. There is no hope for man anymore in their world and that one summed it up perfectly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wjag Posted March 17, 2014 Report Share Posted March 17, 2014 Judith was fine and on Tyrese's back I thought so too, but you really can't see her. I suspect she is fine. Just picking up on the comment above. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoss Posted March 17, 2014 Report Share Posted March 17, 2014 SPOILERS COMING SPOILERS COMING This whole episode was a clear nod to Of Mice and Men as people pointed out earlier. The way she was put down. "Look at the flowers..." The fact that she was feeding mice to the walkers is a nod to the title. Judith was fine and on Tyrese's back Yeap. They talked about it on the Talking Dead. Ya know, that ###### thing they do ads for in the middle of the show to completely take you out of the experience of the show and remind you that it's all a story.

"I don't want to set the worrld onnn fiiiree..." would have been apropos as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dEnnis the Menace Posted March 19, 2014 Report Share Posted March 19, 2014 what an episode!! From the sounds of it, the last two of this season are going to be crazy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PASabreFan Posted March 19, 2014 Report Share Posted March 19, 2014 This episode made me think about the poster who chastised us for taking entertainment value out of the gore. I thought a line was crossed in this one. Shooting a little girl in the back of the head — not good, clean, escapist fun for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robviously Posted March 24, 2014 Report Share Posted March 24, 2014 One week after probably their best episode ever, TWD went right back to total crap tonight. 1. Is Eugene basically Rain Man in the comics too or is that a TV show thing? It just comes off cheesy and I don't understand the other characters actually following him. 2. The arrival at Terminus could have had a ton of tension except they picked an incredibly dopey song to play over the whole sequence. 3. Is there anything about Glen that isn't ridiculous by now? His crazy sprint to start the show made me roll my eyes. His decision to enter a tunnel full of zombies made no sense. And he now regularly somehow survives situations he really shouldn't.

It just comes off cheesy and I don't understand the other characters actually following him. I keep waiting for someone to call him on his ###### but I guess it's going to have to be Rick. I'm not listening to anyone with a mullet say anything to me other than "you want fries with that". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DumbPuck Posted March 24, 2014 Report Share Posted March 24, 2014 I feel kinda slow... I didn't make the connection until this episode that the guys who found Daryl are the ones that were "confronted" by Rick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dEnnis the Menace Posted March 24, 2014 Report Share Posted March 24, 2014 Me too. It didn't occur to me until he said something like, 'only one guy saw him'.. Lightbulbs went off. I had a hunch but wasn't sure until they said it. Also, are we going to have to wait a half of a season to find out where Beth is?! please god not another Sophia half season! oy! Really interested to see what happens with the Daryl situation with them tracking Rick, Michonne, and Carl. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoss Posted March 24, 2014 Report Share Posted March 24, 2014 So, is this better than Breaking Bad? This thread has many more pages. Not even kind of close. I think Walking Dead actually sucks, a lot, now, but I just keep going because I don't like just stopping in the middle of a show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MILFHUNTER#518 Posted March 24, 2014 Report Share Posted March 24, 2014 I feel like Rick is gonna drill Michonne by the end of the series and Carl will accept her as his step mom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoss Posted March 24, 2014 Report Share Posted March 24, 2014 I feel like Rick is gonna drill Michonne by the end of the series and Carl will accept her as his step mom Or Michonne and Carl will do it and then adopt Rick.

Robviously Posted March 24, 2014 Report Share Posted March 24, 2014 Or Michonne and Carl will do it and then adopt Rick. Would be the better storyline. And still more believable than Glenn and Maggie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
inkman Posted March 25, 2014 Report Share Posted March 25, 2014 And still more believable than Glenn and Maggie. Come on man, it's the apocalypse. I think Hershel could have bagged some old hotties if he hadn't lost his head. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PASabreFan Posted March 25, 2014 Report Share Posted March 25, 2014 I'm pretty sure Daryl isn't going to allow that band of merry men to get anywhere near Terminus. My nephew texted me that he thought the Wal Mart greeter at Terminus was a bit off. Anyone else think there's something up there? And why in hell were the two gates left open like that?

Robviously Posted March 25, 2014 Report Share Posted March 25, 2014 Come on man, it's the apocalypse. I think Hershel could have bagged some old hotties if he hadn't lost his head. That part doesn't bother me. Pretty much every schlubby dude or nerdy guy on TV has a ridiculously attractive girl on his arm. And, like you said, you'd expect some random hook-ups in the apocalypse anyway. It's more about how insanely shallow their relationship is, and how the two actors have no chemistry at all together. If each of them didn't regularly declare "I LOVE my wife!" or "I LOVE my husband!", you wouldn't get that from them. It's like the writers have no idea how to portray two adults in love so they just keep having the two characters declare their love for each other in expository dialogue. Do the writers have no actual relationships to draw from? Have these people ever been in love? Because they sorta use "LOVE" as a magic rationale to get the characters to do ANYTHING. Think of all the terrible decisions each of them made this season "because Love." They both separately decided to enter a pitch black tunnel in the middle of a zombie apocalypse because it might help them find the other one. Completely inexplicable in Maggie's case and basically inexplicable in Glenn's case (yes, he knew she went down that tunnel but now it's clearly completely full of zombies so she's probably not still in there waiting for him). Earlier in the episode, Glenn decided to sprint away from his group for no reason. When Sasha found Maggie a few episodes ago, she was sleeping by herself in the street in an abandoned town, waiting to be attacked I guess. WTF? At this point you could summarize both characters as follows: "Glenn/Maggie is married to Maggie/Glenn and makes terrible decisions because of this." On a better show, this level of co-dependence would just get them killed instead of reuniting them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
