Any recap that describes the sound of an air horn is A-OK in my book.
aw, thanks y'all.

Anyway, a funny thing happened: after watching 3-4 minutes of this episode, I realized I was bored as bluedilly fuck; I didn’t even WANT to watch it a second time. I ended up flipping over to a run of Grindhouse: Death Proof on another channel.
My, how are the mighty fallen.
At this point, I don't even enjoy reading the recaps anymore.
Ow, my heart.

Since you picked entire episode apart. I will pick just one of your statements apart. How would they carry Carl up a ladder out a manhole if he was still on a stretcher???
1. Take Carl off stretcher.
2. Collapse stretcher.
3. Take stretcher up out of tunnel the same way you brought it down.
4. Take Carl up ladder.
5. Uncollapse stretcher.
6. Put Carl back on stretcher.
7. Roll stretcher, live a better life not having to carry Carl awkwardly by the shoulders.
Really, it's not that complicated.

Really? They used the Laughing Record for the credits?
The record is from 1923, which totally makes sense that they used it in a series about 1970s standup comedy....
Bless you for finding this! So they had to dig back almost 100 years to find their shitty show opening. Respect, I guess.

Thanks for the info, Omar G. To answer one of your own questions, the article at the very end says that the "live" show will re-air at 11:30 Pacific as it always has.
Seems like a win for the west coast all around!

Does anyone know, what was the reason they did a live-from-coast-to-coast broadcast? Was that supposed to add extra excitement for the West Coast? Or did they think the West Coast would prefer seeing the show at 8:30 Pacific for some reason? Or what?
I thought Weekend Update was the highlight of an otherwise drab show.
I think it just doesn't make sense any longer, in the era of live Tweeting and YouTube, to tape-delay when there may be an audience for it at 8:30. Does anyone know if they also show it again at the old time on the west coast? That would make sense to me, is giving people the option of watching it in either slot.
http://www.latimes.com/entertainment/tv/la-et-st-saturday-night-live-on-the-west-coast-20170415-story.htmlOne byproduct, if I recall correctly, is that they'll no longer be able to sub in a version of a sketch from dress rehearsal that might have played better for the west coast. That's been known to happen in the past, not sure if they do that anymore.

Hooray! I love this show so much.

Holy shit, those Twin Peaks clips creeped me out all over again. When this was originally on, my bff and I used to get together to watch and eat cherry pie and drink coffee while holding hands and freaking the f out when it got scary. I love it so much, you guys. I can't wait to do a full re-watch (for the first time in more than a decade) before the new ones come out in May. So happy this is in the Canon!
Awww, thanks. Doing that submission got me excited about the new episodes in a way I haven't been since it was announced.

That last group Rickco met wasn't just all women. I saw a few guys as they came swarming out, and in Omar's recap the last picture clearly shows at least one male, possibly three. But yeah, overwhelming young women and hell yeah to that.
I'm wondering if Gabriel bumped into them on the day that he and Spencer went out scavenging but then Gabriel got out and walked back after calling Spencer a tremendous shit. One of my fave Father Gabe moments.
It's a weird reveal if it's NOT Oceanside, but yeah, I thought I spotted a few males in the crowd while watching. I'm not seeing them in the screencaps, but it certainly could be a group that's not Oceanside but largely comprised of women. (Narratively, that seems like muddying the waters, but that's just me.)

In a super-sized episode, Rick gives up and everyone else is terrified of the new world leader.
This article (and several posters) repeatedly refer to Daryl as "broken". My question: why? I mean - we know Negan is definitely trying to break Daryl, both personally directly, and with Dwight's assistance. Unless I've missed something, however, we've seen no sign to indicate Negan has succeeded. Daryl's refusal in "Cell" to answer Negan's "what's your name?" question in a suitably capitulatory manner, in fact, would indicate the exact opposite.
We can postulate (successfully, I believe) a significant degree of timeline disjunct between Episodes 3 and 4; Ep3 appeared to (IHMO anyway) at least strongly infer a passage of several days (weeks? months?) expended in trying to break Daryl, while Ep4 occurs within 3-4 days after the Great Negan Brain-Bash-O-Rama - Negan gave ASZ a week to get "half [their] shit" together, but then showed up "early". If Daryl was not broken by the end of the "Cell" timeline, then I'd hazard the guess it's virtually certain he was not broken in a significantly shorter time frame, such as 3 or 4 days.
And lest anybody think behavioral acquiescence automatically translates to surrender, I refer you to a viewing of Cool Hand Luke - the turtle-shooting scene in particular. :)
3 hours ago, ElleMo said:Heath and Tara must have guns too. So the ledger must be really inaccurate or there are a lot of people walking around with guns that were never in the armory.
Of course that ledger is wildly inaccurate. I thought Carol more than adequately demonstrated the ASZHats kept better count of their chocolate bars than of their weapons and ammunition.
That's a fair, if argumentative point. That's really just my shorthand way of saying "Remember last week when they tried to break Daryl? He sure looks and acts pretty broken, huh?" We all know he's probably going to snap out of it at the right moment and kick a foot in someone's ass, get his crossbow and ride off with his motorcycle. But for the time being, he's essentially acting like he's broken.
Breaking someone is surely not as binary as the show would expect us to believe. But right now the switch it set to "Broken" at least in the TWD universe.-

Here's the "Attack of the Masturbating Zombies" sketch I mentioned in the show, written by Conan O' Brien:

This was a really mind fucky one. It was pretty clear that it wasn't going to end well, but this was really bad.
I wonder if the game designer was inspired by somebody in real life. Only one I could think off would be Hideo Kojima.
Btw. can't those game designers spring for an RF shielded room when RF interference means death? I mean even if you are a sociopath and have no problems getting rid of the bodies. That has to be more hassle than shielding the room...
Let's rank all the mixed-reality and bio-shocking technology!
So I wasn't the only one who picked up on the "would you kindly"? :D
Ah, damn, I meant to reference it in the write-up, but yes, Hideo Kojima is exactly who I think the character was modeled after. The game makes me think "Resident Evil," but the posters and personality and reputation of the game designer seem totally based on Kojima. Kojima was actually working on a horror game recently, so this fits perfectly.

Inarguably, the three best, most accomplished actors to be cast in this hackneyed show:
Ruben Blades
Colman Domingo
Paul Calderon
Gone; maybe dead, most sincerely dead, or just left behind, doesn't matter. There's no one left with any compelling ability to inhabit a character and make me believe them. Boring, pointless, insulting. I think I'm done.
I would add Marlene Forte (Celia) to that list, too, she was fantastic.

Not a single walker this episode. That doesn't even seem possible.
There was a handful of them walking on the beach, but that was it. It was like garnish next to a bad steak.

Okay, I don't watch this show anymore so I know this is way off topic and all but I need to ask. The Brain and The Strain sound like my kind of shows. Are they any good? I've been saving Sunday nights for streaming and just finished Penny Dreadful and before that Jericho.
I'm also covering "The Strain" for Previously -- I think it's definitely a lot dumber in terms of plotting than FTWD or TWD, there's a lot of going in circles and characters doing the same thing over and over, but on the other hand, it takes itself a lot less seriously than either WD shows and is a lot more willing to be campy. Definitely a guilty pleasure show. I've seen next week's premiere and it was more of the same and a lot of window dressing for the rest of this season, but you may find some of the characters more likeable than FTWD's.

You had me at the little hamster arm smack. Or way earlier, if i'm being honest.

You bother to put in a Disturbing Content warning, but you apparently don't count that picture of Denise as "disturbing"?
Good point, I should have included "extreme eye trauma" in that warning.

Something other than Jesus saying "We should talk"? I've scanned a few recaps and that's the only thing I can find, and honestly it doesn't take much more time to write that than "please see the recap".
Yes, that's all that happened. It there was more to it than that it would be... (drumroll) ... in the recap.

Was this a post credits scene or a scene from the preview? My recording cut off right after Michonne and Rick kissed.
Please see the recap. There was more after that shot as well involving Jesus.

So, are we to think that this was Rick and Michonne's first time? I've watched it three times, and I can't decide.
Also, thank you show for making me care about Daryl again for the first time in a while.
That's what I'm gathering based on her surprised reaction to the hand holding. It seemed more like a roomie situation, not romantic, before that.

LOVED the hack montage GIFs.
"...and many balls were found on that day."
This is great, covering so many of the complaints about this episode in a delightful way!
Thank you muchly! Let's do this again next week, shall we?

I really need some more character development -- I honestly don't even care what happens to people. I was excited that Carlos was being sent to the farm, so that maybe we could learn more about it. It would have been good to go a few episodes before Mr. FBI started collaborating; maybe I would have been more invested if I knew more about him/his family, what was happening.
That was a big problem with "Fear the Walking Dead" was it was tough to feel sympathy for these particular Los Angelenos and their teens when everybody seems to be getting along pretty OK and there's no real immediate danger. You know Josh Holloway isn't going to be killed off anytime soon, so it's hard to get worried that he's in any real jeopardy.
