That part actually makes sense. Time and again she's proven to be the biggest badass of the apocalypse, give her a gun with three bullets and a pocketknife and she can fight her way out of anything. However she's also never been this kind of blind swinging angry before. Sure Henry wasn't the first child to die in her care, but by the time Alpha cut off his head he was in her life longer than Sophia if my math is right. She thought her murderin' days were over and it was just a long, happy life of rebuilding civilization and raising a family ahead of her, instead that happened.

Basically she knows better than anybody how to take down Alpha and her horde, but she stopped caring about her own survival and the people around her a season and a half ago. Which is having predictable results.

It's just.. it's so booooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooring. holy gently caress I just click through anything that isn't Negan/Whisperers. I try, but like.. I don't give a gently caress about Sidiq or whatever anyway, I don't even remember how he was found. anyway who loving cares, took 5 minutes to watch the whole episode.

Ask me about the shitty opinions I have about Paradox games!
I caught up with the last three episodes yesterday (I think you're all one ahead of me) and I dunno, they just sort of happened.
The whisperers seem like a step too far for me. Living in the forest, getting killed for no reason by Alpha and sleeping in the forest but somehow not being dead of frostbite.

It just feels stupid as gently caress. I'm actually okay with the skin suits, that feels like the LEAST stupid part.

I'm curious as to what Carol thinks she can do to the horsde, which is tens of thousands of zombies. Nothing. She can't do anything, they just need a garbage, contrived event to ever so slightly advance the plot

my call for this midseason finale is bro doctor will say Siddiq killed himself, Rosita will be like "no we had this really dumb conversation together that can't be true" and uncover his nefarious plot, he'll probably die

Gamma will probably spread some seeds of unrest in the whisperers with the whole Lydia is still alive thing but I think Alpha gonna kill her in the end, but that'll just make the rest of the whisperers question her even more

And Eugene will reinvent phone sex, but just on ham radio

As soon as we saw Beta skin his walker kid and make him into a mask I'm pretty sure Lydias fate was sealed. Even more so now she's run off into Whisper territory.

Alpha will kill Lydia and make a new mask.

Why wouldn't Lydia know about the mole doctor? Clearly he's not some random if Alpha trusted him to infiltrate and not defect.

i don't think Lydia'll get axed; i def think Gamma will, though. i bet Alpha like, sees Lydia from afar or something and has ~a moment~ then lets her run away/escape/helps her or some poo poo, while Beta watches from a bush and then oh noooooooo drama

Is Negan still with the whisperers? He already saved Lydia once I doubt he’ll let Alpha kill her.

I finally caught up and my god this is all so stupid

Gonna get whatever weapons I can get from this naval base, I brought an 8 foot boat

Daryl would absolutely hear the walkers before he fell where everyone else was, also you would think at least one of them would invest in a flashlight on their 2 day journey

Which is even more hilarious when there was like a 5 year time skip which would put a lot of the batteries available when the outbreak occurred near the end of their natural lives so they would have less charge and drain that charge faster.

I can actually kind of get past them still having batteries since looting a single decently stocked Walgreens would likely net you enough batteries to last 5 years in a society that is really only using batteries for a dozen or so flashlights and a handful of walkie talkies.

This toilet is from the 1970s and all the bolts fell apart like rusted butter

The rubber smeared like it was grease

Also I had issues seating the thing because it wouldn't stay level

Overall, I should have bought a whole new toilet

At one point they will venture further and maybe discover some advanced societies. What ever happened to that windmill lady anyway? She came and went, I didn't get the point of that. It's been 2 seasons?

Dude, do you remember the gamer henchmen she had as her protection?

She is 100% dead. They all probably died when they went to a walmart to find copies of crash bandicoot and a bunch of zombies just ate them.


EDIT:

I can't even recall when i last watched this poo poo. I think it was some scene where they were owning some zombos on a beach, it was something like 100 fully decked to the gills alexandrians or whatever vs. 10 zombies. I still like to check out the thread every now and then for some goofs and gaffs.

But now, I would like to reminisce all the good times we've had with this marvel of a show:

Considering these people never seemed to go to like a sporting goods store to get like compasses/basic camping gear I doubt they ever raided anything useful from anywhere.

Holy poo poo, it got worse! Purposefully bad lighting to hide that the 60's Star Trek cave sets. All fights are someone hitting someone directly off screen and blood splattering. And of course "dust effect 04".
