Season 1: Liberty Bell takes out zombies. Season 2: Cheese Wheel takes out zombies. Season 3: Giant ball of zombies eating zombies takes out zombies. That was a grisly improvement on what threatened to just be a running gag.

Show def. seems to have started on a more somber/grisly tone than last season. 10k blend, Murphy ascending a throne that actually might work this time, Warren & the gang down and out...but at least Resident Zero might be getting laid soon!

Citizen Z's number one fan is hilariously deadpan. And Misery references are always good.

I was an idiot and thought his list was 3 people - just one name for each person.

Best Murphy rear end in a top hat move was when the family whined about missing their father and he then opens a door to let the zombified father back into the building.

Loved the failed attempt at turning the tables on the soldiers. "Thought that was going to go a different way." And the soldier double death fakeout. Good, good poo poo. At this point I've dumped TWD and FTWD for the one true zombie show.

I am so glad this is back. 5K and the crows... man it got real dusty in here for a moment. Ep 2 affirmed everything that is good and right in the Nation of Z, and Murphy's sly "You've stopped counting" scene was . They even managed to subvert the hostage reversal trope and do it in the funniest way possible. Doc tugging on the dude's knife was great. The way this show has improved, and the way the actors interact with fans on twitter feels almost like a personal thank you to those of us who sat through the first three episodes, scratched our heads then gave it one more shot anyway. Then wouldn't shut up about it on forums and facebook and twitter. Seriously it's great.

Murphy's always been an evil gently caress. Its just always been muddied a bit by his relationship with the crew and the other eviler fucks intent on using him to take over the world. Now he's just eliminated that dichotomy and decided to become the world conquering despot himself. I thought the 10K reveal was weird because it seemed super obvious Murphy had turned him from the start. They dropped half a dozen hints but by the time he's taking shots at his friends instead of saying "Hey guys! I'm alive!" what other explanation could there be? Even if you didn't get it at him not being able to run away from Murphy or getting in the truck when Murphy tells him to, I can't imagine anyone was surprised when we saw the bite.

# ? Sep 27, 2016 23:39 |
I wonder if it's significant that he bit him on the neck instead of the face like everyone else.

I assume it was just done that way so they could do the reveal at the end of the episode.

I actually like Murphy's path right now. Yeah he's being a total douche he is still Murphy. However, in a world that has nothing going for it, he is now trying to build something. Considering the world is over, and there isn't any societies growing and thriving. He is totally being a dick, but this is pretty much Murphy trying to be a hero. He just doesn't give a poo poo who he sacrifices on the way.

I'm kinda unhappy with the 10K half-zombie reveal. I'm hoping Doc will eventually pseudo-science up some kind of 'cure'. I don't want him to go the way of Cassandra. Also, anyone know if Vasquez will be reappearing this season? I liked him in season 2, but his outro was just kinda meh. I'd like it if he came back.

I kinda wish he didn't turn 10k too, Murphy has always been a dick but he usually has a soft spot for the gang. Cassandra was already bitten so it made sense with her.

I doubt 10K will be turned for the rest of the series. I'll be a mission to cure 10K.

I guess he wanted his own mind controlled super sniper. Also lolling at how he abused the turned soldiers, like mind controlling the soldier into carrying the extra suitcase
