The Walking Dead - TV Series on AMC ( Comic and Un-aired Spoilers unwelcome!)

[devilof76]

Now that Rick is a badass, everyone is challenging his decisions.

I don't see Tyrese making it out of the mid-season finale unless he pulls his head out. Maybe Sasha getting taken down will be enough to rattle him, but if anyone's perspective needs to die, it's his.

Sounds like he comes up against the same kind of crap that inspired his Ricktatorship speech at the end of....season 2?

 

[devilof76]

Something like that. It seems different, but I'm coming up short on exactly how.

 

[dw316]

Was that Jasper Sitwell?? Man, pulling off a Clark Kent with those glasses.

Overall, I think this episode was mostly filler and setting us up for the mid season finale. The most interesting stuff was when the focus was on Rick's group and to a lesser extent the hospital scenes. The stuff with Abraham's group and Father Gabriel weren't very interesting IMO. Abraham's group basically uses the whole day for Eugene to wake up, Abraham to sulk on his knees and Glenn, Rosite and Tara to get some water and go fishing. The stuff with Father Gabriel grates on me the most. His character is completely useless. I was hoping he would get eaten when he left on his own. The sooner he is off the show, the better.

Hospital scenes were ok. What is up with Dawn's 180 on Beth? I am guessing there is more to this that will play out next week.

Sasha was vulnerable and Lamson took advantage of it. I think we all saw it coming and were all yelling at our tv sets for Sasha to turn around. Again, I (and we) need to let this play out next week before passing final judgement. Couple of things that I find curious are: 1.) Noah vouched for Lamson as being one of the "good" guys and 2.) Lamson could have killed Sasha, but didn't. Not sure what his game plan is running off into the middle of Atlanta, unarmed and with his hands tied behind his back.

I thought when "new" Bob was leading Sasha to that particular spot it was so one of Dawn's snipers could get a bead on her. Tyreese has no problem wading through lots of walkers and coming out on top. His reluctance to kill another human will likely bite him in the *** soon. Pun intended. Rick seems to be going a little to far over to the dark side, or maybe he is just acting that way to put the fear into his adversaries? The exchange between Dawn and the other cop seemed a little weird as it was played like the guy was over her, but I thought she was suppose to be in charge?

I thought the same exact thing.

Man, I felt there was a little somethin' somethin' with Glenn and Rosita at one point... but then I remembered he's married.

Christian Serratos on Talking Dead...

drool

Especially when Bob started back pedaling. I expected a shot at any second.

Prime example of a character acting stupid to advance the story. Would any person alive turn their back on a prisoner from another group, at this point? That's just idiotic and indefensible. *waits for someone to explain that this is actually brilliant writing*

Only thing that makes senses is she trusted him because Noah vouched for him but yeah, who would do that at this point?

I liked Daryl having to tell him 3 is better than 2.

Yes, these two points were interesting to me. Not sure where they're going with this other than to make Dawn a sympathetic figure. And I'm curious what's up with Bob.

 

[OSCORP]

Bored to death with this one. But to be expected. Will the the next make up for it? I'd bet on it.

 

[dw316]

Yeah, I think they have to have slow filler episodes every now and then to flesh out the entire season. Otherwise we'll catch up too fast to comics or there will be nothing left near the end.

 

[Fritz]

They had three hostages, did they show what happened to the other cops?

 

[crows]

Oh man...Rosita (Christian Serratos) is HAWT in that little black dress on Talking Dead!

Christian Serratos on Talking Dead, hnnnnggggggggggg!

I guess i will have to do what i never do and hunt down this TD episode...

 

[AllisonAmy]

Maybe Bob left to give the "good cops" a heads-up. He seemed sincere when he said he didn't want anyone to die.

 

[a-dev]

Wait....Bob? Another one?

 

[creature4000]

that's the name of the cop.

It was an OK episode.. but yeah what a dumb move on Sasha's part. I think Dawn is setting her up due to the weak vs strong conversation that happened a week ago.

 

[AllisonAmy]

I thought that was Lamson's name. Could be another reason Sasha put her guard down without intending to. Maybe he is bad, though. He said he has known Dawn for eight years so he might be loyal to her. He also said there were no cops anymore, maybe implying he wasn't "good" anymore.

Father Gabriel, what is he up to? If he just chose to walk away from the church, would the group really have stopped him? Now I have a feeling he will let loose the school walkers and come running back, leaving the church with an undefended access point, i.e. the floor. What an *****.

As for Sasha, it's a horror show, so I guess there is no escaping having characters do dumb things. But seriously, it doesnt take much in that world to knock somebody unconscious. Bob running out with his hands tied on his own makes me think he has something more up his sleeve than trying to help Dawn. Maybe he is going to rally the other cops to stage a coup over Dawn.

 

[crows]

Also, nobody should ever listen to Tyreese. Daryl made a mistake supporting the kidnapping plan, now they're going to be ready for them back at the hospital.
He just have what it takes to survive in this world. He's fine when it comes to Walkers, but he can't take out dangerous people too well. He even saved that guy who threatened to kill Judith from Carol's wrath by pretending he'd killed him.
It's too bad Bob bit the dust rather than Tyreese.

well when they went after their people in woodbury they ended up leaving glenn and maggie behind, even if tyreese is being dumb there is the fact that this plan didn't really work to well back then

My guess is that Morgan will end up saving Gabriel's worthless @ss just in the nick of time. Michonne and Carl know him and he knows them, so I can see them all together waiting for Rick to get back from Atlanta.
