Let's blame Gabriel for more stuff. Abraham's death, the zombie apocalypse; all Gabriel's fault.

My money would be on Rosita or Sasha surviving so the other could be given a plotline about feeling tormented about it (not a good thing) if both of the actresses didn't have reasons not to come back next season.

Also, it was really hard to pay attention this episode

Did Rick and Michonne really just murder those golfers for batteries and pretzels?

I'm pretty good at paying attention and even I was like, WTF just happened. There was 0 explanation as to how they got all their poo poo.

Which ended up being like an anti-Chekhov's gun - introducing details that end up having absolutely no relevance at all later on. Just have them find a pack of Duracells or something, or loot a dead man's tent. Now there are living golfers who resent you and want their double A's back.

Yeah that was pretty odd. Were they saviors? Just two white dads getting away from the family?

So I just gave in and watched a few episodes of z nation since you guys talk about it so much.

It's kind of getting off to a bad start with how stupid people are acting 3 episodes in.

Is it just me or does the worst CGI in this show happen during episodes with Trashkru in it? The deer, the bad green screen a couple episodes ago...

They're just ahead of the curve. TWD didn't have people acting consistently stupid until a couple of episodes into season 2.

I would also still appreciate some danger.



Z-nation doesn't really find its legs until about episode five IIRC.

Man this was a tedious episode. I feel like it's fuller until the finale, which is one of four times they're allowed to advance the story.

The way the garbage people talk is probably the thing that has got me closest to quitting this show. It's embarassingly bad. I'd take a million magic van flips and dumpster glens over that poo poo anyday.

Suppose you're thinkin' about a plate o' shrimp. Suddenly someone'll say, like, plate, or shrimp, or plate o' shrimp out of the blue, no explanation. No point in lookin' for one, either. It's all part of a cosmic unconciousness.

Those traveling carnival rides are death traps now when they are passably maintained by the toothless carnies. Leave them rotting for a couple years and I'm surprised it didn't crumble the moment he stepped on it.

I don't know, with the amount of walkers standing over the gate during that scene, it looked like Rick could have just finished off the ones that were there by just keeping up the same stabbing pace, and that climbing the thing to get a lookout would just put him in a harder position of the things surrounding the base and not being at headstab level. On the other hand, I figured that climbing something to get a lookout might make sense in any of the other scenes so I let it slide. I was fixing popcorn and copying a DVD during the commercial breaks, so I was easier to please than usual that night.

He used the deer to distract the zombies. They ate it while he got away.

It was a reference to the deer that he saw by the van, but was unable to catch. He really wanted to shoot a deer for Michonne. It was a really inexplicable piece of bad CGI and pointless filler writing that didn't have to do with anything at all, sort of like having the trash people talk like drugstore indians. The way the deer seemed utterly oblivious to its surroundings and deaf/blind to the zombies and the humans battling it out a few meters away was truly stupid as well - I guess someone wanted to tear up a fake deer carcass on-screen.

Maybe, maybe, they were trying to do a metaphor where the deer was a symbol of Rick's desire to just drive around and gently caress Michonne? And it dying represented reality crushing his dream of the gently caress-van lifestyle?

Rick is the deer, it's a symbol of him becoming complacent and what could happen if he, like the deer, stops metaphorically running to wank and not remain observant of his surroundings.

Every time you see a deer in Walking Dead, you know something bad is going to happen, It's foreshadowing. Chekov's deer. Unless Michonne is walking around with it slung over her shoulders. Then it's fine.
