Look, all I am saying is, if you are driving though the south there better be at least one stop at a Zombie infested Stuckeys. I NEED to see a zombie fight scene in the middle of snow globes, salt water taffy and novelty tee shirts.

 

[cstu]

Watching the scene again where Tyreese gets bit and there's a continuity error.

He goes through a hallway entrance (no door) but when the camera shows it from the reverse angle there's a door on the entrance he came from.

The other two doors in that hallway were closed. No way for a zombie to get him without opening a door.

ETA: Nevermind, Chris' brother came out of the bathroom that must have been one of those jack and jill ones.

 

[cstu]

Rick's conversation with Noah and Rick's conversation with the group was at the beginning of last night's episode.

Fine, you're right - outside Richmond, Virginia.

 

[Loan Sharks]

Who knows where we go from here. Good episode.

Sorry..last's night's episode was horrible.

You have a world in which it is a daily struggle and they casually blow off a trek to Virginia with a throw away " That was a hard trip" line. I was looking forward to an epic Journey and they skipped it.

I'm not saying they had to show every mile of the 500 mile trip to Richmond, but it would have been nice to see some of it. The whole group hadn't ventured too far from Atlanta from the start of this show. I'd imagine that they are all from GA. Seems like it would be a big deal for them to leave "home" and finally go on the road. Did they run into any trouble? Were the roads filled with cars and walkers like they had previously encountered? I don't need 3 episodes to the trip, but give us at lease more than a couple lines about it.

Wait, they were in Virginia? I didn't even hear that.

The show that makes going to a nearby town for supplies into a Homer epic ends up going to a new state for the first time with a throwaway line?

you didnt realize they were in VA?

Complain about it and not realize it..

I really need to start taking this show more seriously...

Rewatched the beginning and they talked about 'a long trip' and there was a SC sign. Rick asks Chris "How far out?" and Chris says "5 miles". Then he talks to Carol and says "We're halfway there" and she says they've gone 500 miles and are halfway there.

By far the longest trip in the show's history and they encounter absolutely no obstacles along the way.

Pretty sure if they drew out the trip over say 3 episodes people would be complaining about it being the same old, same old.. Drive, kill, stop, hunt, kill, drive..

IMO, it felt like it was a good time to "move the story along" faster.. A complete guess here based on what others have said...

Spoiler

I stopped reading the comics at the point of the prison, but based on what others have posted there is a "Safe" city before DC ..

I'm guessing they reach that either right before, or during this seasons Finale, to setup next season so felt they needed to "Fast Forward" a bit.

Bull-ony, what you are describing is the plot line for Battlestar Galactica, Star Trek ,Wagon Train and Love Boat which is an amazing vehicle. A show with traveling or constantly changing sets allows a surprising and fresh story every week. This show isn't and shouldn't be Friends where people sit around hallucinating and occasionally a zombie walks into Central Perk.

 

[bigfeet_88]

Aside from the grass looking cut in that neighborhood and the cars running on bad gas......that was a pretty good episode.

I'm glad whoever was cutting the grass trimmed the hedges too. Mine go crazy if they are unattended for even a few weeks.

 

[comfortably numb]

You all are gonna feel stupid when the show reveals zombies eat grass when not feasting on humans

Rick and Michonne sitting in a tree K-I-S-S-I-N-G?

Maybe says Gale Anne Hurd

Season five’s other big question mark is whether Rick and Michonne — orRichonne, as some have dubbed them — will deepen their relationship. Is there a true-love story here, or is it all wishful thinking?

“You’re gonna see something very interesting develop between them,” Hurd said. “Very interesting, and incredibly unexpected. You’ll see a certain kind of love.”

You could EASILY 500 miles in under 8 hours seeing as there is no traffic to deal with.. Add in a few drive around Zombie invested roads and I'll give you 10 hours..

I know in the past they've taken their sweet time getting this group to travel 15 miles..

But again, that has been one of the complaints from some.... To slow, why aren't they moving along faster, this is the same old boring stuff, move the story along!!

 

[TenTimes]

My synopsis of the episode:

Mumble, mumble, mumble, look around empty town, Tyreese gets bit and hallucinates before dying.

The important take away was Tyreese's revelation that he could take a second bite to an already infected body part. Don't be surprised when this foreshadows the escape of a human who actually wants to live, like [insert remaining cast member's name here]'s, for example.

I thought that was a very smart move on his part.

 

[Mr. Know-It-All]

One other question that has been bugging me - how come Zombies bite are so much more gory than normal human bites? Is part of the zombification process an increase is tensile jaw strength and tooth sharpness?

Yes, you nailed it....BUT only the jaw.

As we saw a water hose can blow a hole in any other body part.

 

[GregR]

Who knows where we go from here. Good episode.

Sorry..last's night's episode was horrible.

Put me down in the camp of not liking this opener. It felt clumsily paced, awkward, confusing and not impactful to me.

You have a world in which it is a daily struggle and they casually blow off a trek to Virginia with a throw away " That was a hard trip" line. I was looking forward to an epic Journey and they skipped it.

The emotional impact of Noahs subdivision being wiped out and Tyleast getting wacked was lost on me. I think there were two things working against it. Back to back deaths of Beth then Tyreese had the effect of not feeling to bad for the death of your dog because it died the day after your wife died. The second was the break. I almost forgot about Noah and the Tyreese development almost felt like taking a final exam the day you got back from summer vacation. Also there was NO build up to the Virginia community so I really didn't give a crap about it. Sorry a couple of wall photos don't make me care about the loss of a brand new character.

The zombies chops, fence, Michonne, glenn and marks and such was a lot to pack into one episode.

I agree with a lot of the second paragraph there.

It made little sense to me to lead with this episode after a break. As I watched the episode I couldn't stop wondering WTF the writers were thinking throwing these things out there without much build up to them. What little they attempted, like Noah discussing the settlement in the car, were boring enough they didn't generate much empathy.

It kind of felt like they got in love with the idea of the out-of-order sequencing and the visuals they were going to have. So much so that they gave no thought at all to actually committing to doing some storytelling in the story they were telling.

 

[packersfan]

Last night's episode just missed a ratings record. The numbers for Better Call Saul were solid but the drop-off from TWD to that show is really a clear example of what a phenomenon The Walking Dead is.

http://deadline.com/2015/02/walking-dead-ratings-better-call-saul-debut-strong-1201369284/

Edited to add - Better Call Saul set a debut cable ratings record and they didn't come anywhere remotely close to what TWD delivered.

 

[cstu]

It's not that a zombie's bite is more powerful than a normal human's, it's that the human mind normally has difficulty tearing through living flesh.

He lost more blood from the bite than he did after they chopped his arm off. They had the opportunity for a realistic blood bath, but, they must have used it all up on the bite and ran out.

ETA: Not to mention the weak attempt at stopping said blood loss. Even with the infected bite why don't you take your hammer belt off and tourniquet it? Surely you've practice the what if Hershel scenario in your mind.

You can't point to this episode as substantiating TWD's popularity. There would be a lag involved. I doubt that one poor (IMO) episode would have any impact on viewer numbers. If there were three or four episodes of similar ilk, then I think you'd see it in the numbers by week 4-5.

 

[James Daulton]

Why doesn't everyone use a freaking katana like Michonne? Seems like the perfect zombie killing weapon.

And you could use it to trim the bushes when necessary.

I think the numbers the last couple of years and all the records the show has broken substantiates the show's popularity.

As for the reaction to the episode much of what I've read so far outside of this forum has been positive. Most of the negative reactions are due to Tyreese dying not the episode itself. So I'm not sure the consensus among fans would be that this was a poor episode. The negative views expressed in this forum have rarely translated to what the majority of fans/viewers think about the show. That's proven to be pretty consistent in my opinion.

Rick's starting to use the machete more often.

I thought that was a very smart move on his part.

Greatest move ever, except for the part where he went and bled to death from the bites. Muscle bound Tyrese couldn't push off one sad sack zombie. Fool deserved to die.

Also, he was not around for Hershall's leg to see them using a tourniquet to stop the bleeding.

The end result wasn't great but I thought it was smart thinking to have the walker bite an infected body part rather than something which hadn't been bitten. If there was any chance of survival chances are much greater if you only have to deal with one infected area as opposed to two.

 

[ghostguy123]

I would avoid an island because everyone would be trying to get to an island. Sounds like a terrible idea to me to go where everyone is trying to go.

alkatraz

best place for a zombie invasion

zombies couldn't navigate the rocky cliff, prison walls to keep out people. good to go

and when you get there, the people already there kill you. Got it.

I'll just sum at up like this. It is probably not a good idea to go to the same place everyone else wants to go. More people, more zombies, and the people who would survive that are the bad ### "claimed" types who will cap you on sight.

It would be perfect if you could get there right when the invasion started, with about 50 people who all get along perfectly, with a ton of food and ammo to last a year or more, hope you dont get firebombed, and shoot the million people who try to get to the island.

Not real likely

 

[ghostguy123]

People didnt know they were in virginia??? Oh must have been Noahs OTHER hometown

Of course because Noah has been in ONE full episode so far, it is not outlandish that people would not know the hometown of the lovable gimp dry cleaner.

Two scenes were devoted to it, both involving Rick. It wasn't like this was a minor plot point they didn't touch on. It was made pretty clear where they were going.

I have no idea how anyone who paid attention even a little could have missed that.

Lot of people in this thread specifically that have complained about things that also didn't pay attention to a lot of things.

 

[ghostguy123]

I thought last night was a good episode, except for how Tyrese/Cutty got bit. This whole premise of a walker sneaking up and chomping a chunk out of someone? C'mon.

Think about it. There's no noise at all. No radio or TV playing. No neighbor mowing his lawn. No cars or street traffic or sounds of kids playing in the yard. It's dead silent. You're in an unknown house and you've already seen a walker behind a closed door. NO WAY anyone is sneaking up on you, no matter how mesmerized you are by a couple photographs. Lazy writing.

Completely missed this post- verbatim what I thought.

At that point he was completely lost in the pictures, and the past, that I think someone screaming right outside the window would have been missed by him.

The only part I did question is "How did it get out of the room with the closed door"

But otherwise, it being able to walk right up to him didn't bother me at all.

I am kinda thinking Noah heard it and opened the door.

It seems to happen frequently where people rip on the show and the writers for not explaining things that are clearly explained in the episode. This show isn't perfect and I'm not saying it is but I do think some people go into each episode looking for things to complain about and they pounce on anything they can, even if what they're complaining about isn't justified.

 

[tonydead]

LOL at anyone knocking the show just isn't paying attention and....just look at the ratings of Better Call Saul!!!

 

[ghostguy123]

That's what irked me. When Abraham and co. went out to go to Washington, they barely made it 5 miles before a crazy zombie horde. Yet, the group sets out on a 500 mile trip and we get nothing? Again, not saying they had to devote an entire episode to it, but at least give us something.

I didn't mind last night's episode overall, just thought they skimmed over a pretty big development in the story.

Maybe they actually had a clear drive for once, and didnt want to do an episode of just driving and chatting?

As for the 500 miles and 5 miles being halfway some people mentioned, I think they were just testing the range on the radios, and the other were a few miles behind and not all going to that development. Remember when they were carrying Tyreese back and they said to make sure to get Carl and Sasha out of there so they didn't see Tyreese while they worked on him, did people think they were about to drive him 500 miles back?

 

[packersfan]

Criticizing the show is fine. Criticizing the show for not addressing things that are addressed in the episode is what I find rather curious.

When did they pick up those radios I forget? Those type of radios need repeaters to work off of so they definitely wouldn't have worked 500 miles away from where they found them and very little chance they'd still be working if they found them in the Virginia area there.

So if everyone made the 500 mile trip to Richmond, why did they not show everyone going? Just makes the show confusing for no good reason.

And if everyone was near Richmond and Rick's group went off to Noah's town separately then why did Carol say they were 'halfway there' when DC is 100 miles from Richmond?

 

[packersfan]

Nobody was going to Washington last night. It's not clear if they're even going to go (although I'm guessing they will). That was just something Rick said after Michonne's talk about needing to find some place to call home. It was at that point that Rick said to Michonne and Glenn that they should go to Washington.

Why doesn't everyone use a freaking katana like Michonne? Seems like the perfect zombie killing weapon.

That's why this show is not centered in Japan. Katana stores at every corner. Things are perfectly normal there.

Last episode was 44 mins according to imdb. I noticed the heavy commercials, but I thought they were stacked in the second half and the first half was relatively commercial free.

Nothing was confusing.

They were halfway there "from where the rest of the group was"

And what does DC have to do with anything anyway? "Halfway there" is no reference whatsoever to DC.

They talked about going to DC, but nobody said anything about being "halfway to DC".
