Pride prejudice and zombies?? Wtf.

What's next, a movie where Abe Lincoln hunts vampires?

 

[pantherclub]

Such a dumb episode. From dummy Carl and his fight to Deanna's stupid speech to carol doing god knows what to the dummy's stuck in the garage not knowing they could knock through sheet rock to mullet man picking a lock. Also forgot about e priest still wearing his collar. Come on man. Just horrible

 

[jamny]

Really is unwatchable at this point.

 

[Balco]

Season started great. Ended with a whimper.

 

[GreenNGold]

Season started great. Ended with a whimper.

Yep, this.

 

[Zow]

That was the half season finale???

 

[pantherclub]

"Thank you"

For what

"For believing"

Uggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

 

[tonydead]

Zombie sheets! Why not just do that in the first place to slip past the hoard, find a car and pied piper them away again like they kept wanting to do for the last 3 episodes? Because these writers are dumber than coooral.

 

[pantherclub]

"I have a knife. Gimme your guns ".

 

[shadyridr]

Omg ants! Seriously what's the point of that shot

 

[pantherclub]

Worst episode of the entire series and it's not even close

 

[Zow]

Omg ants! Seriously what's the point of that shot

Here, let's be figurative and foreshadow the episode at the same time!I just took it as then trying to be clever and telling us the place was going to be overrun.

 

[tonydead]

"It all belongs to Negan." Better string the comic book readers along because no one else is watching this crap.

 

[tonydead]

My favorite part is when they left bitten leather face alone with Judith, then Rick realized he couldn't leave her alone unsupervised......wait what was that, I'll be right back and leaves her again. Lol.

What happened in the commercial during badlands

 

[tonydead]

What happened in the commercial during badlands

Negans group on motorcycles stops and confronts Daryl and wreckem Ralph. Announces everything they have belongs to Negan.

 

[ClownCausedChaos2]

What happened in the commercial during badlands

Andrew Lincoln amd the entire cast broke character and admitted that the writers are lazy and the FFA was right.

 

[Hoos First]

I got to the end of the episode and said "That was it"? What a disappointing episode.

 

[GreenNGold]

I definitely thought Abraham was going to show up with his rocket launcher. I guess that will be first episode of the next season.

 

[Zow]

This into the badlands show is ####### ridiculous

 

[shuke]

Omg ants! Seriously what's the point of that shot

Would have been cool foreshadowing if it was done 3 or 4 episodes ago.

 

[modogg]

if they try to make Negan the guy who was talking in that clip, i might be out. that has to be one of negan's lackeys, no way is that the character from the comic book

 

[Maelstrom]

Once again, if you don't like it, don't watch. No reason to come in here and bag on it.

I enjoyed the entire half-season, including the finale. It's still a really good show, those complaining about it really just want it to be something it isn't.

 

[SacramentoBob]

This episode was pretty much ####.

 

[Worm]

"There's something you need to know. Your dad was an #######."

Right on Coral.

 

[SacramentoBob]

I was hoping Maggie would die there.

same here. and it's only a 60 minute episode (40 minute probably), they have a lot to do before the hour is up, need to speed up some of these shots with Sam and other filler

During this scene, I turned to Mrs. SB and said "It would be great if Glenn was a zombie and was the one who killed Maggie here".

And the really good parts of this episode are......? The fan submitted clips on talking dead don't count.

My favorite part is when they left bitten leather face alone with Judith, then Rick realized he couldn't leave her alone unsupervised......wait what was that, I'll be right back and leaves her again. Lol.

While I thought it was a bad episode, you may want to get better at watching. Rick clearly goes left (door to right), bends down and gets Judith and then closes the door on the way out when Michonne yells to him. I don't mind complaints about the crappiness of this episode, but I still hate the lazy watching complaints. Enough to complain about, like that whole damn wolf scene, so bad on so many levels.

Am I wrong in not understanding the Wolf's jail? He is clearly only tied up at the hands. Carol walked right down into that room as did Morgan. What was the point of locking the door to the basement when it sure seems like the Wolf could walk right up the stairs and leave the house at any time (Morgan and Carol didn't unlock the front door going in). Again, such an awful scene and setup. How was it connected to the garage that the others were in? Just lucky that they went in or did Morgan want to make sure the Wolf had a quick exit if he found the garage door and broke through it. I understand Morgan's teacher's cell as that was steel bar enclosed, but Morgan's jail cell seemed more like house arrest with an ankle bracelet and the honor system.

 

[tonydead]

Zombie sheets.

Sewer tunnel.

Glen climbs a tree within inches of the wall.

Yet none of these morons can find a way to slip past the hoard and pied piper them away. Lol. The best thing this show has going is the characters are dumber than the zombies.

Grabs her and then does what exactly? You must have missed the barricade from the outside to the downstairs in your lazy watching.

Well, if Morgan is trying to recreate the whole setup that "saved" him, that cell wasn't locked either. The only prison is in your mind, man....

What are you talking about? Deanna was upstairs and Rick went downstairs. Guess what, he likely dropped Judith in the room next door. You do realize there are other rooms and heck, a hallway upstairs, right? They dragged the two zombies upstairs and Coral put Judith under his blanket upstairs. I have no idea what you are trying to say because you are trying to prove a point and you are wrong again. Please tell me how Rick couldn't have easily dropped Judith off before going downstairs to help Michonne.

Also, are you just trying to deflect from your original comment that Rick didn't grab her and close Deanna's door? I watched it again and that was 100% clear and what you said that he left Judith with her again was 100% incorrect. Again, lazy watching.

 

[tommyboy]

Argggh, this show is at the point now they need negan. The whole Alexandria thing I could have skipped except Rick killing porchdick and the Morgan story.

True, the wolf couldn't have had easier access based on what we saw (the garage door that mullet picked locked on the wolf's side). Now, was the cell unlocked for Morgan only? I doubt Morgan's guru left it unlocked for the guy that killed his wife and kid when he grabbed him and at first planned to kill him.

 

[stbugs]

Argggh, this show is at the point now they need negan. The whole Alexandria thing I could have skipped except Rick killing porchdick and the Morgan story.

Agreed, if that is our leaving Alexandria (don't read comics), that was a whole lot of not much. We could use some darkness. We literally only lost a couple of redshirts and Papa Georgio so far even with a horde of thousands.

ETA: At least with the farm, we got a real nice payoff. I guess we haven't seen the end of Alexandria yet, but the barn scene with Sophia and the burning barn scene were far better than what we got tonight.

Well we lost Deanna, but still there was a lot of nothing happening the last few episodes. I still feel annoyed that we didn't learn much about the wolves and now there's apparently a new group coming (Neegan's).

Pretty sure there was a door, with a lock, to the room the wolf was in. Carol unlocks it when she goes in, but didn't lock it behind her.

 

[Loan Sharks]

What the #### was that?

You porchdicks all made fun of me when I was worried when Kirkman said he was going to work in homosexual love stories and ramp up everyone elses relationships.

I hope you are happy now that you know that Michonne is going on a soul search to find what makes her happy, Tara has the hots for Rosita who is recently single. Oh and Tara will be single in a minute. The struggle between the most awesome Carol and the ridiculous monk. The teenage boys work out their problems bro style. and become steadfast friends.

I said I wanted A Team action and was told that was immature,

Enjoy your mature dialogue driven boring ### #### show while you explore your feelings and contemplate the duality of man.

I swear to god this is the Stripper of TV shows, it looks great you sit there for hours and then ####### nothing but empty pockets and a wet spot.

I can't even complain about one specific issue. It was a "start to finish" cluster ####.

Ok I guess I can single out the worst part of it. Ok you you live in a community that has power and the kids play video games......what ### #### 10 year old has a 1960s record player and rocks out to 40's big band music, how does he even have that ####, if he had it why would he listen to it, you have a working playstation put in damn cd, are you ####ting me.

I guess I can only speak for myself, but there was a point where this show was really good. There's also still glimpses of that "goodness" that keeps me around - like the Morgan episode and the initial horde episode.

So, we watch. And then when we're let down by some just genuinely bad episodes like the last two and silly factual goofs (insulin, van landing right side up, the flare shot, Glenn not dying, etc.).

 

[Zow]

good point on the record and the old school toys.

 

[Maelstrom]

Things I liked from tonight's episode:

Carl's storyline with Ron

Deanna dying (her arc was up, and it was a fitting death)

The wall coming down, flooding the town with zombies,

Things I could take or leave

Wolf story

Didn't care about

Maggie/Glenn story

Whoop de do. I was actually surprised at how little I cared. Also I was a like oh well I guess that boring doctor is getting thrown into a crowd of zombies while the wolf escapes.

Oh and you didn't learn much?

No you are right this episode didn't push the plot at all.

Oh we did find out that dating opportunities for Tara in the zombie apocalypse have been a gold mine.

Also that while everyone else kept food in the pantry they had plenty of food at porchdicks house to "last them a while"

I guess that is where having read the comics gives me a different perspective, and a little minor foreshadowing of where the show is going.

I'm here for the story, sometimes that is zombies, sometimes it's the people. I'm also very willing to overlook silly "tv-isms", like the things you mention at the end. Some are silly, like the van flip, done aren't as bad as portrayed if you watch close enough. But regardless of those things, I am still enjoying the story, and I'll watch until that isn't the case.

 

[Maelstrom]

Oh, and if it's been a bit of a bore for anyone lately, you may want to stick around a bit for Neegan. Big character from the comics (sorry, but he had been "revealed" now.) The show will likely head in a different direction again as they deal with him. (Actually, that is straight from Kirkman, that he is going to shake things up.)

 

[Loan Sharks]

Things I liked from tonight's episode:

Carl's storyline with Ron It was great right up to the dry hump non payoff.

Deanna dying (her arc was up, and it was a fitting death) It reminded me of the scene in The Holy Grail where she kept saying "I'm not dead yet" Drug it out way too long and a Deanna centric is not finale worthy

The wall coming down, flooding the town with zombies, !!!!!! I couldn't agree more I can't tell you what a difference it makes to have the zombies milling around inside the walls as opposed to outside the walls when the character developing dialogue was going on. You could cut the tension with a knife. I mean the suspense of the zombies getting inside Alexandria was intense, but now that they are inside and all that worrying was for nothing as they killed exactly NOBODY, my suspense has equally transferred to WILL THEY GET IN THE HOUSES>

Things I could take or leave

Wolf story Agree Carol is not so dumb as to have that fight in the middle of what is going on.

Didn't care about

Maggie/Glenn story ​Son, Climbing a ladder and then peeking over a fence isn't a "story"

I did crack a smile when Eugene said help on the radio, that was funny,

 

[tommyboy]

I would like it if they'd kill off

Ron

Sam

Tara

Fat chick

Wolf

Morgan

Ron

Ron

Pastor

and

Ron

 

[Maelstrom]

I did crack a smile when Eugene said help on the radio, that was funny,

Nice sarcasm on the responses, but not going to get in any kind of back and forth about it. No need to justify my enjoyment.Not sure if you connected the dots, but this is the same voice over the radio that Daryl(?) heard a few episodes back.

 

[TenTimes]

Locked in a garage with Tara and Rosita facing the end of the world and you're reading World History?

Lock picking is within my skill set.

gb Eugene.

 

[the rover]

The comic book nerds are going to be so upset when Negan is written just as badly as every other character. "yeah, the show sucks but wait until [next terrible plot/character gets introduced]"

 

[Mario Kart]

Decent ending. All I know is that kid better shut up while walking amongst the walkers. Quit talking. Glen should have called to Maggie with a whistle or something to let her know.

The last thing I saw was the line leaving the house. Any thing after that I am unaware of.
