weightyghost February 16, 2015 Share February 16, 2015 I really wish Chris had asked Robin where he thinks hippie Sam went instead of trying to meet up with Carol and Rick after the girl was killed by zombies. I assume he was probably picked up like Beth was around that time. There is only a little over a week between the Carol banishment episode and season 5 (Glenn almost dying happened that day + walkers int he yard that night, then I think the prison fell two days later, plus the week going to Terminus, according to this timeline). Either that, or he was caught up in one of the houses and then wandered off only to get picked up. I feel for Lauren because I talk similarly to how she does. I need to fully think out what I'm saying before I say it which causes people frustration because I hesitate. I can only imagine it being worse when you're on a talk show, constantly worried about spoiling something. Hardwick was in full annoying-form last night. Not sure if he's just getting back into it after the long break, but something was a little too overactive. Maybe it's that he can't separate himself from his @Midnight persona (where he's allowed to be a bit more crass and jokey) and TD when he needs to take a breath and chill out. 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/2029-talking-dead-where-chris-hardwick-got-his-groove-back/page/12/#findComment-832010

Dewey Decimate February 18, 2015 Share February 18, 2015 I find myself wandering in and out of the room during this show more and more. I don't care about the trivia and I don't care about the tweets. I feel like they're dragging 20 minutes of content out lately. Tim Heidecker and Eric Wareheim (both hit-or-miss and acquired tastes) have a Bedtime Stories ep that I didn't even realize at the time is a total Talking Dead parody. Not sure if that was the intended target, but it's all I think of with every freakin' Subway Fresh Twitter fan hashtag interactive poll bullshit moment. (Hope that link works - first time trying!) I had no previous exposure to him, but loved Seth Gilliam on TD. At first it felt like the energy between him and LC was frosty, but his method acting story about separate living arrangements totally explained it. He had some of the most thoughtful and interesting answers I've seen on this show. And his brief little imitation of Andy Lincoln during the apartment-in-town anecdote was perfect - I could totally see AL saying it just like that. Just as happened with Josh McDermitt's excellent TD appearance, it's inspired me to now have much more of an interest in a previously-meh character, Father Pee Pants. 4 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/2029-talking-dead-where-chris-hardwick-got-his-groove-back/page/12/#findComment-839977

Pete Martell February 24, 2015 Share February 24, 2015 (edited) A few random thoughts. I could have done without the worm eating. I don't think they addressed the criticisms of how Maggie reacted to the kidnapping of Beth at all well. IMO, Hardwick came off as more than a bit of a douche and an asshat when discussing it. People weren't talking crap about Maggie, they were questioning why she was acting like a jerk. I don't think Lauren's explanations/excuse making helped any. If anything, I think they both came off as a couple of whiners and more than a bit hypersensitive. They should have just said that viewers had a right to be ticked off at the Maggie character for coming off as an uncaring jerk. I saw plenty of people crap-talking Maggie - I can't count how many times I saw people call her a b**** and a slut and say they hated her now, and all she cared about was dick. That godawful attention whore Barrowman sat on that very same couch and trashed Maggie. I thought she handled the whole thing graciously considering she's not a writer on the show and she had to deal with what they gave her. I'm glad they just had her briefly address the criticism and talk about how she was glad to finally get a chance to play Maggie's grief, and briefly try to explain how Maggie had felt. The truth is (to me anyway) that it was shitty writing, but she's not going to say that, as she wants to keep her job. I'm always happy when this show avoids too much talk about fan reaction. I've had enough of that with the many Talking Dead episodes involving Daryl's penis.

I wanted someone to put Chris Hardwick in the corner until he calmed down. That sugar high hysteria he was on, especially in the last half of the show, got on my last nerve. By the end he was squealing like a mouse. Why? Why? Lauren Cohan seemed to try to adapt and joke around, but Seth Gilliam had my reaction of just not knowing how to react at all. I really appreciated Seth's responses to the questions and to the general derision toward his character. You can see how much work he has put into the role. I have a lot of respect for him.

And Alanna Masterson, based on what she's shown previously on that couch, has the best legs on the entire cast. And it's not exactly a cast of fuggos. "Talking Dead" is supposed to be the hour where they make it up to me for looking at Abraham in a child-sized wife beater, god damn it. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/2029-talking-dead-where-chris-hardwick-got-his-groove-back/page/12/#findComment-880460
