It’s cool that so far this entire episode is all original storytelling diverging from the books.

What I’m saying is this is trash.

A little EQ, a touch of reverb, slap on some compression and there. That'll get your dickbutt jiggling.

Got to love how a Savior plan was discovered by dumb luck, but then was foiled by more dumb luck totally unconnected to the original dumb luck.
Like how do you even storyboard this crap? It's like they drew up some ideas on index cards, dropped all the cards and placed them together at random.

It's just so lazy and I'm really not sure how Gimple or whoever is responsible keeps their job.

Whole episode was original padding poo poo to make the war storyline longer. Which didn’t need to be if they loving stuck to it.

Why. Why would Rick go to the garage people like that. Why do they need them, and why on Earth would he think they'd be at all trustworthy? Of course he was going to end up naked I'm a shipping container.

It's all part of the plan.

And even if it wasn't it will coincidentally have been the right move later on for no reason.

Even among the bilge where this season's standards can be found, I was utterly disappointed that the trash people were back. They were the stupidest loving gimmick.

That's interesting. I do wonder whether they will even get another season. The whole thing smells of no money and desperation from the writer's room.

I hope FTWD does keep on because it's become pretty passable telly.

I just caught up on last week's before watching tonight's sexy garbage people episode, I'm sorta bad at watching things so can someone please explain to me the Darryl/Rick TNT argument?

I thought they were arguing over whether to use it to draw walkers to Sanctuary, but I also thought this whole season opened with them drawing walkers to Sanctuary using window-shooting technologies, so obviously I'm wrong on one of these counts.

self-deprecation is a very british trait, and problems can arise when the british attempt to do so with a foreign culture





daryl wanted to use it to blow a hole in the walls so the walkers could get in

Yeah, that was a bit...final. Have a hard time believing he'd be saying "BYE FOREVER" if he was gonna be back next season. Also not imagining AMC would want to pay an actor double the salary to appear on two shows in the main cast when you have some guys like Reedus and Lincoln pulling in a ton of $$--they'd just want more. Gimple's message of "we totally have a lot more story for Morgan on TWD guyz!" smacked of damage control.

Also I can't believe I'm bothering, but I have to wonder how this works timelinewise. Abraham would have worked great. But we're supposed to believe Morgan went from GA to TX after the first episode of TWD, hung out with Madison and Strand, then went back to Rick's town in GA for Rick to find him getting CLEAR and trapping walkers? And wasn't his son with him in the town? So will his son be on FTWD played by some other child actor cause that kid's gotta be 20 or so by now.

I thought Duane was bit by his walker mother and turned so Morgan had to put him down and that was what made Morgan a little nutty cookoo. This would imply it happened shortly after the first episode while Morgan and Duane were still in town. And Morgan stayed there going crazy. So where does he get time to go to Texas?

Daryl wanted to blow a hole in the side of Sanctuary to kill everyone in there with zombies, even the civilians maybe. Rick said that wiping out settlements was not an option.

Earlier Negan's lieutenant suggested wiping out Hilltop as a warning if they don't get in line. Negan got pissed because "people are a resource". It's like poetry.

They might be wiffing a lot of the action this season pretty badly, and totally spinning their wheels a lot (like this episode), but I'm on board for the (few) scenes debating the morality of war. You could poo poo on them if you wanted to, but they seem like the level of thinking that people in that situation would have.

I'm watching right now and I lol'ed at the RPG and at deux ex garbage truck but wondered why Rosita would run outside after the garbage truck without carrying the RPG she had literally just been using. It's not a bad episode though I guess. I mean aside from the trash people

That was the dumbest sequence on this show this season. Obviously, that's saying a lot. Also, Trash Queen's "He talks too much" is for every character in this ep.

Am I right in assuming the effects department was so lazy in the scene at the end that they looped a rainfall sound effect and hosed the actors / car in a mist and thought nobody'd notice it wasn't raining at all?

Literally nothing about any of this makes any loving sense as his timeline is pretty well established.

I was screaming that too. Something along the lines of "Gee, it'd be nice if I knew where I could get an ANTI-VEHICLE WEAPON.."

ED: If they were going to surprise RPG it would have been 10x cooler to do it to the truck than "RANDOM DARYL." I like how he asks if they were a savior AFTER he runs them over.

This show is the TV version of the producers where the show runners have been desperately trying to make the worst show so it bombs and they can get a tax break or something but now they’re 8 seasons in as much as they try the show refuses to end.

I like how they showed Rosita reaching into the smoke grenade box... only to find out it's empty! Whoa! Some serious tension there, drat
