The Walking Dead

It's the "Rick is going mental" music that used to be part of the Governor's theme.

Anyway, I'll be disappointed if Deanna is actually just being dumb and isn't just trying to keep her people naive and happy for as long as she can while knowing damn well that Rick is right and also that the coward guy is lying his ass off. They already set it up where she'll kick curly hair out for being a lying pussbag and he'll whip out his sweet biscuit and kill someone important or just black. She clearly trusts Glenn.

Hopefully it isn't left up completely to deus ex Wolves to wipe it all away. I'd rather have her admit to Rick that he's right "even when he's wrong" as Carol put it before the shit hits the fan. (I liked that line) Just because, goddamn, EVERY character doesn't have to be a coward and/or moron.

Besides, they could have easily come to an understanding over Drunk Cary Elwes. "banishment" - for about 50 feet, then a bullet to the back of the head. Once he's outside the walls, what happens to him is up to Rick. Sounds like a reasonable compromise to me. Who knows, he may even have decided not to shoot him.

But oh well, I really should have learned to just wait and watch. I'm too spoiled by binge watching shows after they are over.

One reason Rick went semi mental in the comics was he was talking to Lori on the phone in Alexandria. They used it what 2 years ago but left his crazy in now and ya at least we know who got the blender gun with the J on it now.

The better show is they banish Rick and he becomes leader of the crazies and Daryl sticks with him and implements the claimed system and they spend the next 2 seasons murdering, pillaging and raping everything.
Instead we get the I'm gonna huff and puff and beat on your gate guy coming.

I started reading the comics since the season finale is coming and I just can't wait another 9 months or whatever for new episodes and am pleasantly surprised how well done the comics are. Very good artwork and it also shows me just how much the show has added and I'm only at the caravan after Rick goes to Atlanta.

I like the show but I always crave more than what they give me each week.

okay, i think it was posted a few pages back but i can't find it. Can someone explain the 'W' in the foreheads please... i really have no idea where these are from or why they are so relevant.. i feel like i'm missing something every time i see them.

They haven't explained it yet, but noah's subdivision that was overrun by ppl and not zombies, spray painted on one of the walls was something like "wolves are near" so its not a strech to say there are a group of crazies out there that call themselves wolves.

The Wolves and W is speculation ( Wolves were not in comics btw ) but 3 places now we have seen Wolves are near and of course about 6 episodes now with Z's that got W's on head.

wolves will definitely make an appearance next week. its stupid that they are right in their vicinity and they dont notice this large inhabited compound, plus they keep dropping hints that are nearby. i dunno if this will "turn it around" for rick's position on survival, but it probably will knowing how obvious the writing has been. i expect the black chick with the death wish to die with a good helping of alexandrians in the fight. porchdick will die for sure. what i am not sure of is what they are doing with morgan. is he going to show up and help or is he going to be a surprise villain? would be funny if if he was the leader of the Wolves ala Benjamin Linus.

One of my last night's spoilers answers the nearby thing, otherwise it'll make sense next Sunday.

yeah pretty much, they already hinted at that too since "banishment" seems to be a plot point mentioned a few times now. either way alexandria is a weird fucking anomaly that should not exist in this world. the Governor's little community was much more realistic since they had 24/7 zombie guards and they pretty much hunted and killed any outsiders who had threat potential.

Rick or Glenn or someone said as much last night but I can't remember who, that basically that place shouldn't still have people alive in it.

Either way there routine appeared to be just let walkers beat on the walls as they had no one on clear duty. That would be fine but wouldn't there be thousands there beating when they arrived? Just last night a pack of like 40 in total was either beating the walls or close to them that Rick's people killed off in 2 different packs. So where was all the walkers up till now?

The camera crew attracts zombies, quite obvious.

What disappointed me is we didn't get to see if Rick was going to kill the guy or if he ultimately was able to be convinced to let him walk. That's a pretty big deal, and something that I hope still gets to happen since up until now he's only killed people who were quite fucking obviously a threat and hardly a grey area.

I mean, at this point they may as well give him an eyepatch to clue in the last 2 or 3 people who don't get see what the writers are doing here. Is Rick just another Governor now, willing to kill people just because they *might* become a threat? Or was he just thinking with his cock while Carol is thinking of her dear hubby that she misses cooking for so much (loved that interview) Tune in next week, where we'll cocktease you with it but then have the choice snatched away yet again, like when the group convinced him not to storm the hospital guns blazing. Good call there Daryl, worked out great bro!

Oh you will get resolution next week on it, mostly due to the season finale being here. If there was 3 episodes left to go then it would be dragged out and ran over a few more times.
It's pretty obvious dude is going to die without comic spoilers. Just wondering if they justify it the same way as comics where the reasons why isn't what you think, nor seen in the show.

Personally I don't think Rick intended to kill him, he was going to remove him and exile him it appeared. He had every chance to just shoot him or knife him several times.
It bothered me it wasn't obvious to the rest of the people when he pulled the gun he didn't have to brawl, he could have just shot him, not to mention he attacked Rick first.
Is he or isn't he the Sheriff there, and if so why is Deana even threatening him when she knew the dude he was popo raping was a woman/kid beater.
Does it go back to Atlanta where doctors are pretty much immune to all rules and laws?
Why am I asking all these questions? Do the writers even bother to ask these questions or do they just derp?

A terrific twist would be Hilldog killing the lying jackass that got her son killed.

I'd get such a boner from that.

Gotta say, I was hoping for a twist with adulterer blondie being the abusive one. It would have been hilarious, as Rick would have been blinded by his penis and Carol was just projecting her own personal history without doing due dilligence. What really made me think it was the blonde was in last week's episode we learned the kid knocked over and destroyed the mom's owl sculpture. If dad was the abusive one taking his shit out on the family, why the fuck would the kid go wreck mom's stuff? I guess they just blew that off as "lol.. kids!"

Think how dark that would have been. Rick goes and executes poor abused dad, with Carol insisting it's the right thing to do. Then the truth comes out.. Oops!

Deanna (I think?) mentioned something about there being way more zombies outside their walls than had been there in a long time.

At the time I thought it was a "W" foreshadowing, that maybe they were somehow bringing zombies with them?

so it wasnt the girl spying on them and taking ricks blender but the cowardly asshole. how did that work out to be?

Well as a possible harbinger, Talking Dead has Carol and Daryl on next week, as well as a "mystery" guest. Seems even money that at least one of them dies

They seemed to insinuate that she knew he was full of shit while watching the video.
