A lot to take in, but I'm mainly just glad that the show is moving quickly now. That whole 'two seasons that comprise about five weeks' killed me. I certainly wasn't expecting that big of a time jump, but they gotta get Judith up to an age where she can take some of these Rick/Carl stories I guess. It's not perfect, but I can say I'm invested in the show again. Not sure I can say the same about the adventures of Rick/Jadis, especially if Gimple is in charge of it.

Didn't Saul introduce them? I seem to recall the part when they had to go through Saul to get another meeting when Jesse showed up wasted the first time.

I started re-watching the series (again), and saw the episode with my favorite exchange: Isaac: Let me add Dana, things that I say in my office STAY in my office. Dana: Natalie's my second-in-command, she's the only one I told. Natalie: Jeremy's my boyfriend, he's the only one I told. Jeremy: I told many, many people.

Last night was awesomely ridiculous, just like I remember! T-Bag makes this show for me, so I'm willing to overlook the complete insanity that he got out on 'good behavior'. I can't wait to figure out how he ties into all of this with his T-1000 hand. Lots and lots of plot holes that I'll just continue to overlook because I love this crew. C-Note has all of the Yemen hookups.

I'm enjoying this show the same way I used to enjoy Under the Dome. It's so bat crap crazy that I wind up looking forward to it more than most shows. That might have been the worst delivery for the death of a main character that I've ever seen. Guest stars on CSI get a better sendoff than that. It was so bad that I also kept expecting zombieChloe, or at least something animal related. I guess she'd served her purpose and had to make way for Mitch's mom, which is pretty much the only storyline I care about at the moment. Mitch continues to be the only one that delivers intentional laughs for me. I know that crazy cult leaders are crazy, but did it ever occur to them that maybe the reason that the polar bears kept coming back is because they kept feeding them? If you don't want stray cats coming around your house, you don't put out food for them to keep them away.

I enjoyed tonight's episode, definitely a little bit of setup, but shit is going to get real fast. My favorite moment of the year was Rick covered in blood looking at all of the Hilltopians. I've lost track of how many times Rick has looked around and seen new people staring at the mud/blood soaked crazy man. Usually he launches into some rambling nonsense that may or may not involve one of his own people knocking him out. This time..."What?" Awesome.

In all seriousness, I don't look forward to any show the way I look forward to this one. It's like that game where a bunch of kids each write one sentence of a story and then pass it to the next kid to continue it. Assuming the kids were hammered. I keep forgetting that the entire timeline of the show is still less than a month, because they've packed about 10 years of the stupidest plot twists and turns imaginable. The entire story line is pure insanity, the dialogue is god awful, no one does anything that makes a goddamn bit of sense, and it's all just awesome. Reading the reviews and comments on here just make it that much better.

I think Rodney goes next, they have to be getting tired of that whining, don't they? I've seriously never seen a grown man whine as much as he does. I absolutely loved the fact that he never even considered that he could actually WIN a challenge, he was already begging someone to feel sorry for him before it even started. Mike has been a target for so long, but I can see he and Carolyn turning the tables on Rodney and either Will or Sierra.

All other things aside, I think Carolyn's play was brilliant tonight. She has managed to always make sure she's aligned with the larger group, and sensed a shift in sentiment. She got rid of the only person who knew she had an idol, and if she can get Dan and his two votes aligned with her, Mike and Sierra, she might coast into the final 3.
