I have read complaints about walkers sneaking up on people, but I try and put myself in the position of:

I havent eaten real food for 2 years

I havent had sleep for 2 years and continuosly go very long stretches with zero sleep and strenuous activity, while not eating and likely not being well hydrated.

Putting those together, it is not hard to lose focus for a few seconds at a time here and there, especially when you are trying to focus on other things. I can easily see a walker just come up behind someone.

It looks bad on TV, but the reality is that it just might actually work that way.

Yes, the reality is that you lose all sense of sight, smell and hearing.

No show in the history of any show in the history of the world gets nitpicked as much as this show regarding things that have nothing to do with the overall story, such as the dude who probably

should have been completely eaten with that note laying there. Or the grass, or one of 5000 other things that don't matter.

It's a true testament to how great this show really is. It even draws in the people who don't like it.

Name another show like that. Another show that will reach double digit prime time seasons that is.

Go ahead, research, I'll wait.

The kardashians

Everyone in alexadria is going to die and ricks group will have that place all to themselves.

I am probably going to stop watching though cause Glenn is alive, and the writers didnt let me know for three weeks. They hurt my feelings.

This show jumped a zombie shark.

You're just feeding the hatertrolls here. It's pretty obvious they're not going anywhere. You know who the level headed ones are here that really just want to discuss the show. Stop responding to trolls and perhaps the ratio of troll to valid post will get better.

Gonna feed them till they burst. Will they ever burst? Will they? The walkers burst when they feed too much, will a troll? Will a walker troll? Will a TWD troll?

This show is great. It is greater than the trolls. Trolls can't bring down these walls.

The walker herd reminds me of the trolls. Bunch of mindless lifeless wandering blathering brainless walking goop of flesh.

 

[ghostguy123]

We ARE the walking trolls.

Remembering your dire warnings of Ebola epidemic cause your wife is a nurse or something makes me think you are prone to hyperbole.

Which show then?

I am going to go with Survivor. People tear that show apart but it is still awesome.

I have watched every Survivor been on boards and been in every season thread here.

The criticisms of Survivor by people who continue to watch the show are endless.

Here is a small sampling.

Planted idols

tipping off contestants

returning contestants

product placement

fixed recruiting

using actors

Giving them too much food

Its too hard

Its too easy

cutting out reward trips

stupid reward trips

the choice of returning players

bikini lines

how are they grooming

tampons

condoms

medicine

medical evacs

idol placement

number of idols

gross food contests

strategy about :

idols

alliances

sleeping arangements

food

throwing challenges

men versus women

social game

auction bidding

sharing clues

sharing idols

giving idols

hiding idols

going through peoples belongings

who is the hottest chick

next host

Boston Rob

collusion

prize money

and of course would you do the nasty with a hot chick after a month of no bathing.

Well if they weren't we wouldn't have a show now would we.

The Laying Dead wouldn't have quite the same draw

Nicholas fell ontop of Glenn. That was Nicholas intestines. Glenn survives. At least thats what i hope.

I watched it again, theyre eating nicholas, not glenn. But unless something distracts that horde quick, theres hardly a way glenn could escape

I wouldn't mind one bit if they found a way for him to roll under the dumpster or hide in the zombie/Nicholas guts. Those ####ers just killed Glenn. Bring him back, right ####### now imo.

I'm calling it here. Glenn knocked up Maggie. That's why he'll "be back" in future episodes.

Rick's knife broke and he cut his hand, also could have been on the machete, but he wasn't bit. If he was we sure didn't see it, and he didn't seem overly concerned that it was a bite.

Did someone actually call Rick an F'n idiot for unloading the clip on those people? He just almost died from the other two guys and blew those others away before he had to scuffle again. Not sure that makes him an F'n idiot. My guess is he also did not anticipate the RV not starting. This happens a lot in shows/movies. Maybe they should try letting it run. Just sezzin.

Who knows if Glenn is dead or not. My guess is no because it looked like they were eating the other guy on top of him, and Glenn is a skinny dude and slipped under the dumpster, then something probably distracts the walkers. Yes people, they get distracted very easily and move on to the new distraction whether they are eating or not. I do also remember a commercial showing that dumpster in previews. So yeah, all real world common sense says he is dead, but I don't think he is.

If he IS dead, he should be. Why in God's name has he attached himself to the Nicholas idiot anyway? That is death worthy.

Props imo

Back when Nick tried to kill Glenn in the woods there were 4 or 5 walkers who fell on to Glenn while Nick escaped. Didn't think there was any way he'd get out of that, but he did. He's slippery that way, I guess.

Maybe he looks behind him at the container, while they are eating Nick's guts, and sees that it is up on legs and he can crawl backwards up under it. Who knows?

You were too late for props. Already nailed prior to your post.

Agreed. Obvious play for cred. Vote Jayrok

And no, the challenge was not to find a show that gets nitpicked, that draws in haters, and has lasted double digit years.

The challenge was to find a show that gets nitpicked MORE than TWD, draws countless haters, and has lasted double digit years.

Is this a serious question? You do realize that artists still release collections of songs that are packaged, marketed, and sold together, right? Just because it's now digitallyn downloaded doesn't make such a collection less of an "album" than the old piece of vinyl people used to purchase at the record store. And yes....some few people do still buy CDs

Everyone in alexadria is going to die and ricks group will have that place all to themselves.

I am probably going to stop watching though cause Glenn is alive, and the writers didnt let me know for three weeks. They hurt my feelings.

This show jumped a zombie shark.

My beef isn't that Glenn is alive and the writers didn't let me know, it's that the writers don't have any balls and wouldn't keep him dead.

The show has lost it's bite, whether you are willing to admit it or not. It used to have characters that were unique, interesting and that you people cared about.

Now they are pathetic cookie cutter caricatures with no depth or originality. The writers are awful and inconsistent within their own universe. Is Michonne a modern day ninja who survived in the woods for months on her own? Or can a stumbling zombie surprise her in the woods while cracking twigs and crunching leaves? They still try to use shock value "deaths" while pandering to the pathetic, cry baby audience who can't stand to see someone die (If Daryl dies we riot").

I agree with this. The few remaining good characters are missing or mostly missing for episodes at a time (Carol, Daryl) and we're left with characters we don't give a crap about (pretty much every resident of Alexandria).

okay so ricks son cant remember his name will be kidnapped and possibly killed?

this would please many viewers.. anticipating his death in the mid season finale

I couldn't stand the part where rick is showing his 'new' son how to use the gun

ricks annoying son kept chiming in like a hype man YEAAA!! YOULL BE SCARED!!!

I think this show needs walt and less morgan. not sure if I hate the priest more than morgan still debating

The show has ruined so many characters that were awesome in the books.

Andrea

Carl

Tyrese

To name a few, and Daryl is god awful.

He has invincible plot armor, steals screen time because of pathetic fan girls, has no real plot anymore without his brother and the feats he accomplishes are ridiculous. He's a brooding, angsty character that hasn't developed in years.

I have read complaints about walkers sneaking up on people, but I try and put myself in the position of:

I havent eaten real food for 2 years

I havent had sleep for 2 years and continuosly go very long stretches with zero sleep and strenuous activity, while not eating and likely not being well hydrated.

Putting those together, it is not hard to lose focus for a few seconds at a time here and there, especially when you are trying to focus on other things. I can easily see a walker just come up behind someone.

It looks bad on TV, but the reality is that it just might actually work that way.

Then say that in the show. That's a plausible 15 second scene that would fit in just about any conversation between a couple of characters.

Michonne: Haven't been feeling well lately. Just flat out tired.

Rick: Yeah....we've been burning it at both ends.....we've been eating like #### since the prison. As soon as we get this herd taken care off....we need to get moving on Lame ### Female Leaders expansion plans.....get some crops in the ground.

Same with the gas......

Rick: When we get past this herd surrounding our town....we need to go back to the quarry. Cars....working cars are becoming more scarce and I don't think we should throw the ones we left there away.

Little things like that would be way better served to the belivability of the motivations of the characters than some of the lame ### "deep thoughts" conversations these characters are having.
