One of the best interviews was when Dayton Callie ended up on Talking Dead. He gave zero fucks and didn't attempt to catch any of the softball questions Hardwick lobbed to him.

Oh good, they killed another character without tapping his potential

Good thing we still have strong personalities like *checks notes* Enid and Henry

They really over did it with the fog/smoke and the lightning with the zombie horde. Like a cheesy horror movie.

e: oh look in a graveyard :allears:

Cheesy as gently caress, but also the first time in a long time they've managed to conjure an actual sense of peril.

They could have just pushed Eugene over the wall and walked away from it all but still, not bad.

Yeah I can't believe that two people couldn't get Eugene up and over like a 6 foot wall. I just felt like the cemetery should have been much easier to escape.

Yeah I know the Whisperers are sort of corralling the zombies but going into the cemetary and then jumping out of it seemed like it would have been a good plan to put some distance between them and the horde.

60% of this episode was ... good? OK it cribbed from every horror ever but the building tension and the herd chase was cool.
20% was "meh" - the Negan stuff was better than it has been but just ok
20% was absolutely awful.
How many conversations are we going to have like this:
"I'm surprised to see you after ........"
"Yes, but I'm here, even after I ....."
"Indeed ... the thing what you did"
"Yes the thing that I did that I did at some point which was bad"
"Yes thing you did was bad"

I mean come the gently caress on.
It's like an 80s sitcom level of talking around the point.

Also henry's friends, did they pull them from a highschool play? That was cringey acting dialled to 12.

Episode was a good episode of amc's the walking dead and this was probably the best half season since a long time

I've never seen a more proof-of-fault than the fact when you moved Gimple where you moved him from improved and where you moved him to sank.

Still some hilarious poo poo like the noobs tracking Michonne of all people without her knowing.

Oh just calling it now for the record:

The radio tower Eugene put up will get a stinger at the end of the season, when they get a radio call from Rick Grimes

I bonus call that somehow nobody will be there to hear it and it will go unresolved for a season as lovely setup for the TV movie

Oh yeah the extended preview shows Michonne with her past hair style so they’ll probably have a flashback to whatever the gently caress happened at some point in the 2nd half.

The only reason to watch this show anymore is for the amazing gifs that always seem to come from it.

Also, this whole whisperers thing got me thinking, how do they poop? Do the zombies not notice one of them squatting and taking a dump? Do they just poo poo themselves? Then that just made me think that all zombies have probably poo poo themselves. They would almost certainly have to, right?

The only time anyone on this show came even close to taking a poo poo was one of those claimer guys sitting on a toilet, and then Rick strangled him. Or stabbed him, I forget.

Not to get too realistic but actual scout snipers poo poo themselves in their guile suits because it helps them blend in better not worse

Next time you are playing a badass sniper in a military game remember they have poo poo all over their pants

They don't poo poo in their pants (outside of very rare circumstances), they use bags which are disposed of because the odor of feces is obviously not good if you want to stay hidden, not to mention all other potential problems shat pants involve.

Holywoodreporter just put out an interview with him. How he felt about his character is how I feel about the show. They have so much fun and cool poo poo in the comics to mine and use and they squander every single loving opportunity.
Man, I knew he would feel the same way I did about his character. What a waste, they really did him dirty.

The problem with the show is that there are no competent badasses anymore like how Rick/Carol/Daryl/Michonne/Jesus were when they were introduced. I guess the showrunners thought they were too powerful over the course of many seasons so they had to dumb everybody down or give them crippling flaws (like back-and-forth pacifist arcs).

I want to be able to watch this show and cheer on a character for being smart and strong in a situation, not sigh as they allow themselves to be swarmed and grabbed by low-level zombies.

One of them made a joke about becoming a fisherman. I gather they are a thing, aren't salty about strangers anymore, and probably supply fish to the other colonies.
