Walking Dead

The Dimer

The Alexandrians are a bunch of shelters wuss bags and Deanna knows it. That's why she's putting them all in leadership positions (even though Gabriel's betrayal is probably meant to stifle that).

Seriously, this episode was just an Alexandria **** up reel. One guy shoots the backhoe injuring one of his own people and they only person that's willing to help is Abraham. On top of that they left him fight for several minutes on his own before saying **** this guys we don't even know is risking his life to save one of us, and he hasn't died yet, so maybe we should help out.

Aiden and Nicholas continued to show their incompetence which in the end cost Aiden his life (and possible Tara though I think she'll recover) but we also see just how big of a pussy Nicholas is. He mentions a previous run while abandoning Aiden in which they left others to die explaining "this is what we do." So not only does he not give a **** about Rick's group, he doesn't even care about his own people. I really hope this guy get a machete through his skull.

All I can say about Gabriel is that he belongs in Alexandria. He's just a big of a coward as the rest of them. How do you turn your back on the people who have saved your life countless times when you yourself have anything but a clean record? I don't think Deanna is going to put too much stock in what he's saying, but it's going to cause her to question things more. Hopefully Maggie doesn't stay quiet and lets Deanna know she overheard the conversation.

And of course we got more of creepy *** Carol. I still can't figure out why she is being so overly aggressive and hostile. She has every right to be cautious, but there's no reason to be the outright bitch she's been up to this point. And since when is murder the appropriate response to domestic violence? I understand that Carol was hit by her husband and that probably accounts for her overreaction, but Jesus she's sounds like a God damn crazy person.

At least Rick now has an actually reason to hate Pete. Up until this point the only reason he had was his being married to the girl he had a crush on. Sure he's a drunk and that's enough reason to dislike him, but it's not enough to justify reaching for your gun when you see him walking down the street. As a cop he should know better than to just kill a man for beating his wife. I hope he actually brings it to the attention of the community or just beats the snot out of him. If he listens to Carol it's going to cause more problems than it solves.

Least Eugene grew a pair. Maybe Abraham will leave hm alone now. Darlys new bike is hot!

The Dimer

I felt like he had to at some point. You can't play the coward card over and over and have it amount to nothing. He either had to man up or get taken out.

Jordo!

They're making Eugene a little too uber-goofy, otherwise for the homage to George Romero.

Minor complaints: Carol continues to be an utterly random and unnecessary character. Her interactions with that kid are way out of character --- at least last time she had kids around.

On a related note, AMC really didn't need to have Carol telegraph the possibility of Rick killing Pete or whatever his name is ("have to kill him"? As in locking the guy up isn't even a possibility? A good whupping?)

Having Gabriel go all crazytown/traitor was also weird and unnecessary (not to mention an incredibly **** move considering he left people to die outside his church).

EDIT: looks like me and Dimer had the same interpretations.

The rest of the stuff (Abrham taking over Tobin's job, etc. -- but not the Romero-esque scene, Gabriel's bit or Carol's existence at this point...) all happened pretty much as in the comic.

Whats with the W carved into the heads of the Walkers? What does it mean?

Tadpole

I think Rick and crew will wipe out the town and or put the weak ones on the other side of the fence. They try to be civilized in an uncivilized world which we all know won't work. The last episode this Sunday will be a good one for sure.
The true evil is the weak, lying, cowards and they must face the music such as ricks Family has.

It's not in the comic, directly at least. There are many theories. One is that it will lead to the Scavenger storyline who come to wreak havoc in Alexandria. Another theory is they are a group called the Wolves who may either reference the Scavenger group for the TV show. Or it could be a whole new story line separate from the comics. They would be a threat to Rick's group. They are messed up and don't kill their victims to the point where they are "dead". Instead they carve the "W" in their heads as a badge when they turn.

Another theory is that it is an upside down "M" and it's Morgan's work. This one is the most unlikely since Morgan was way behind them and they run into the "W's" before Morgan would of made it to the area.

My guess it will be the Scavengers or a take on them. If you saw the sneak peek for the season finale it looks like all hell breaks loose. Darryl saw the fire/light in the woods this last episode. Who was that? The Scavengers/Wolves perhaps? If so I bet they get alerted by gunfire or the motorcycle and follow them back to the safe zone.

I'm not sure, as it's just a TV thing. I heard some reference to "the Wolves" but I have no idea who that might be and didn't want to research it too much.

I thought Woodbury....but that's long since destroyed. Rick is a maniac now, Carol really enjoyed watching him go off on Pete!

Austonian

Rick is the man. Anybody else see Glen crying in the teaser for next week?

jmayz

Is this show still on? I stopped watching around season 3 I think when they spent like 40 years living in the prison. It felt like little house on the prairie with zombies!

Ok flame away, but I hate this show.

Wanna see a cool independent zombie movie? Check out DeadHeads! I watched it over the weekend. Funny as hell! Kinda like warm bodies, 2 zombies that remember their past lives go on a road trip looking for an ex girlfriend. They have a pet zombie named "Cheese"! They smoke, drink, and get high. It's awesome!

Austonian

saw both, liked wristcutters better.

speedfreek

I guess if you like a comedy with zombies. Zombieland is king in that genre. Something closer to the Walking Dead would be Z Nation on SyFy.
