LadyArcadia November 30, 2015 Share November 30, 2015 "Your dad was an asshole." Carl drops the mic. I literally shouted out "Booom! Drops mic" after Carl's statement. I see Jessie is trying to overtake Lori in the mother of the decade award. What kind of mother would have their children BEHIND THEM in that situation? Hell no! My kids would be directly in front of me, where I could see them at all times, and I'd be holding on to them for dear life. No mother would ever have their children behind them in that situation. I guess that confirms Rick has a type. Sorry Richonne shippers. Speaking of Lori, there appears to be a lot of complaints about this season. Have we so quickly forgotten season 2? Now that was Days of our Walking Dead! Oh Goddess, the drama of why Andrea wasn't doing fucking laundry like the other women folk. Ugh... Everyone was screaming to get them off the farm, now we're complaining that they should settle and rebuild? The show runners can't win.

Bryce Lynch November 30, 2015 Share November 30, 2015 I think this half season would be a very good 3 or 4 episodes. IMHO, they have done that much good storytelling, but stretched it out over 8 episodes (including two 90 minute ones). The Glenn's death fake out fiasco made this even worse. You can't be a show that leaves viewers anxiously wanting to know what happens next and one that drags out the plot at a snail's pace for the sake of character development at the same time. It frustrates viewers. 7 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/35160-s06e08-start-to-finish/page/7/#findComment-1759985
Cthulhudrew November 30, 2015 Share November 30, 2015 (edited) What was up with the doudble sided deadbolt in Jesse's garage that let Ron isolate himself and Carl? It's odd that a builder installed a lock on the garage door so that someone could lock themselves in the garage and not be accessible from the house. Maybe some forward thinking Zombie-Apocalypse tinkerer thought it would be a good idea to be able to keep "those meddling kids" from walking in on him when he finally decided to end it all by running the car's exhaust? Yeah, I got nothing else. *shrug* And how awful Sam's haircut is--especially since she's supposed to be a hairdresser. It does give new insight into Ron's vehemently negative response to his mother's attempt to cut his hair a few episodes ago, though... :D I wonder if they'll explain why Unfair Wolf didn't just shoot the lot of Rosita, Eugene, Tara, Denise, and unconscious Morgan and Carol instead of sneaking away into the middle of the herd?

Bongo Fury November 30, 2015 Share November 30, 2015 So how would that work? They'd have to completely barricade the hallway and/or room before they left for the armory, but then how do they get themselves out? Put the 'vulnerables' in the bedroom furthest from the stairs, at the end of the hallway, have them bar the door from the inside, a chair propped against the doorknob or something similar will do. Then pile a couple mattresses against the outside of the door, backed up by a dresser or three. No walker will get past that. They already had the stairwell blocked, that gave them the space and time to 'gut themselves up'. So there was time to seal off the 'vulnerables' with whatever else was lying around upstairs. After they are protected, the plan continues as was shown. But a lot safer, and a lot smarter. 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/35160-s06e08-start-to-finish/page/7/#findComment-1759995

Hell, Shane was giving people lessons on shooting - some hadn't even handled a gun at that point! Now we are years in. Everyone, in the main group at least, is proficient with a weapon.They have killed. They have lost their nearest and dearest. They have lived on nothing, and they have built some pretty good things.

RedheadZombie November 30, 2015 Share November 30, 2015 (edited) ...annnd apparently Morgan thinks the proper treatment for a concussion is to slam the victim's back of their head down on a concrete floor. Again. I don't think that's the right course of treatment. Morgan should have asked the doctor first. After all, she was sitting right there. Sure Morgan could have asked the doctor. First he'd need to collect her medical texts and crib notes. Then sit and wait patiently while she shivers and shakes and researches. Then he would need to comfort, soothe, and encourage her to be brave. From the "extra clip," I thought the snotty little pipsqueak on the motorcycle was Negan. That Kleenex belongs to ME. Right. Sigh, yawn, have a nice holiday, show. See you in February, probably. Whatever. Jeffrey Dean Morgan as Negan? zip! 180. It's funny, because I don't even know who this Negan chap is, except I've heard his name murmured in hushed and horrified tones as part of TWD zeitgeist for years. I know what you're saying.

TattleTeeny November 30, 2015 Share November 30, 2015 Hold on, they don't have to smear their faces with zombie blood and guts? That seems like a new thing. You know what bugged me about this (and now that I think about it, the original use of this technique way back when)? If all the walkers smell like gnarly old walker rot, what good does it really do for humans to smear it all over themselves anyway? Meaning, if the zombies are used to smelling their own goo, wouldn't the scent of humans--even coated in said goo--still pique the walkers' interest? I don't know if I am articulating this well, but if they already can sniff out one human even when that human is in the middle of a huge and very aromatic zombie horde, how much protection could a quick layer of guts really offer? 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/35160-s06e08-start-to-finish/page/7/#findComment-1760152

halkatla November 30, 2015 Share November 30, 2015 (edited) Are you planning to just be a parasite on your community, giving nothing and taking all that you can get? I´d have to be totally honest about just being to scared of the walkers to ever go outside again unless I absolutely had to. I think I said I would be "working like crazy" to make sure there were better defenses than that joke of a wall arround ASZ. So no, I wouldn´t be a parasite, far from it in fact.That is imo much, much better than trying to do something that basically only Darryl, Glen, Abraham and Rick are good at. My food hoarding would stop after I had enough for when/if the defenses would brake, so I could stay in doors for a few days, until Carol & Michonne had gotten everything under control. I forgot to mention that in my spare time I would be lobbying for better & smarter leaders than Rick and Deanna. And I would make sure I had guns on me at all times and I´d learn to shoot them, preferably from a far, like the roof. I think my skill-set is kind of a "more honest Eugene", in that I am scared, I can´t fight and I´m not athletic in the least. But I´m not dumb, I´m quite alert, like to be prepared and I enjoy doing useful things.

Carl and Ron convo, Part Deaux: the bedroom conversation - all of it, however brief - from Start to Finish, as it were. ;> Deanna's exit - slinging the bedroom door open, emptying her revolver into the crowd of hall walkers, then sounding her barbaric yawp as the remaining walkers approach.

This whole season was full of this, making me miss whole episodes and not even caring, only to conclude last night by a repeat of the notorious "wearing of the guts" that made all of us gasp and marvel at the ingenuity. I know it's hard to keep up with creativity and great storylines season after season, but how about trying to cast better and settling in for mediocre? Because it's not even that anymore. Whoever cast Enid should be demoted. They've tried to recreate Jennifer Lawrence's character in Winter's Bones but ended up with a flat, unlikeable character that I simply cannot muster up sympathy for no matter how tragic her story.

AngelaHunter December 1, 2015 Share December 1, 2015 Well, this episode drew me back in just when I wanted to throw in the towel. I loved the opening, everything from "Tiptoe" to the ants. It was ominous and eerie. Loved that instead of usual pseudo-artsy fartsy back and forth/black and white BS, we were swooped right back to where we left off last time. That's the way - just tell the damned story. I was on the edge of my seat during all that, and then... we're back with Glenn speechifying and cheerleading to Enid. That's getting really old, Glenn. Leave the kid alone. Anyway, whoever mentioned Women Falling; they always do and always have, right at the worst moment and usually always turning an ankle. So cliched. Just when I thought I couldn't hate Morgan any worse than I have since we first saw him Star War-ing the Dire Wolves in the woods, he outdid himself. Not only did he rescue the wolf, but stole the meagre stores of food and medicine from the people who have been feeding him to give to the Wolf, who murdered some of those very people. God, I was nearly jumping up and down and yelling for Carol (or anyone) to kill him just to get him off my screen. And now Olivia will probably die because of him. Nice going, Mr. "All Life is Sacred". 3.Deanna's exit - slinging the bedroom door open, emptying her revolver into the crowd of hall walkers That was great. It made up for her death-bed speeches, with the tinkling, manipulative piano music accompanying her words. I love that she went out in a blaze of glory, and I need to watch it again, but I thought I counted only five shots and thought she saved one for herself.

Raven1707 December 1, 2015 Share December 1, 2015 (edited) And also, I'm already sick of Negan (sorry, Jeffrey Dean Morgan, who I usually like). Yeah, I'm sick of Negan too. I blame Kirkman. This show is much better when it just uses Kirkman's work as a guideline, rather than adapting it word for word from the page. There was a time when the showrunners recognized that. See comment above. Then, see comment below. Wasn't season 4 Gimple's first season as showrunner? I loved season 4, for the most part. It's probably tied for my favorite with season 1. But I'm convinced that Kirkman has had him locked in his basement the last 2 seasons, and is forcing him to run the show as HE would. Wouldn't surprise me at all. Several insiders confirm that Kirkman, whose detailed graphic novels form the basis of the series, is "very proprietary," as one puts it. One adds, "I believe Robert wants to maintain a certain amount of his control, and AMC needs Robert for the fan base." But despite the vitriol, some sources involved with Walking Dead say Kirkman was one of several producers on the show who had issues with Mazzara and his vision. http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/walking-dead-why-glen-mazzara-410017 Edited December 1, 2015 by HalcyonDays 5 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/35160-s06e08-start-to-finish/page/7/#findComment-1760861

AwesomO4000 December 1, 2015 Share December 1, 2015 As long as the ants weren't some kind of snowglobe/zombies are all in crazy Sam's head symbol, I'm OK with the metaphor. Oh, please, don't even mention that. That is just too awful to even consider. Also do not give the writers ideas. (To this day, I am still disappointed beyond all reason when reminded of that snow globe finale. I adored St. Elsewhere, and that ending for me was the worst... tied only with what CBS did to the finale of Medium (I try to remember the NBC days and forget that last season on CBS ever happened.)) 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/35160-s06e08-start-to-finish/page/7/#findComment-1761130
Ronin Jackson December 1, 2015 Share December 1, 2015 Gimple must be a dogmatic anti-Darwinist. He seems fixated on making the show about people unfit to survive surviving anyway... until of course they finally do something stupid enough to die violently for cameras.... but only AFTER a three month break... because you know, that's something we're all going to be waiting in baited breath to see happen because it's the friggin' WALKING DEAD, highest rated show on cable TV! But wait, maybe I'm being unnecessarily harsh. I mean, obviously that hold pre-credit thing with the ants eating up the kid's cookie is some profoundly relevant metaphor for the struggle of the human condition or something right? 7 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/35160-s06e08-start-to-finish/page/7/#findComment-1761134

iRarelyWatchTV36 December 1, 2015 Share December 1, 2015 The first half of the season was all about annoying kids you wish would die. Quickly. It's becoming "DeGrassi High -The Zombie Years". They were wrong before, they weren't always already infected - until now. FTWD's problems have infected TWD, at least this season. Teenage angst in a ZA .... No. Just no, man. 4 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/35160-s06e08-start-to-finish/page/7/#findComment-1761190
iRarelyWatchTV36 December 1, 2015 Share December 1, 2015 I know what you're saying. I love JDM and I'm excited about the character. Like you, I know nothing about Negan except I've frequently read he's so bad they could never bring him to the show. Interesting. I wouldn't say I "love" JDM, just cause I have only seen him in one thing I've watched. No matter what, he'll always be 'John Winchester' to me.

[and was actually only in a very few odd brief appearances in s1 & 2 of Supernatural] JDM appeared in 12 episodes in the first two seasons. That's more than I thought. ETA: I think though John's presence and impact on the Winchesters keeps him in our minds and probably will till the end of the show even if he's never seen again. So I think between JDM's charisma and talent, I think he'll make Negan compelling in a horrible way.

FierceCritter December 1, 2015 Share December 1, 2015 You know what bugged me about this (and now that I think about it, the original use of this technique way back when)? If all the walkers smell like gnarly old walker rot, what good does it really do for humans to smear it all over themselves anyway? Meaning, if the zombies are used to smelling their own goo, wouldn't the scent of humans--even coated in said goo--still pique the walkers' interest? I don't know if I am articulating this well, but if they already can sniff out one human even when that human is in the middle of a huge and very aromatic zombie horde, how much protection could a quick layer of guts really offer? I made a similar point about Michonne's pet walkers. That is, one person holding two walkers by chains is just as "findable" as one person standing in the middle of a field of walkers without holding onto one or two of them. 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/35160-s06e08-start-to-finish/page/7/#findComment-1761316
peach December 1, 2015 Share December 1, 2015 I'm just aggravated that, by someone's count on this board, there were 29 people alive between CDB and ASZ. And we're only down by one after last night. And then they showed us a Broadway motorcycle gang, thereby canceling out the loss of Deanna and adding even MORE g-damned characters. I realize they're "about to" lose some more (in three months), but it needs to be, like...20 of them. 9 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/35160-s06e08-start-to-finish/page/7/#findComment-1761372
AndySmith December 1, 2015 Share December 1, 2015 Everyone was screaming to get them off the farm, now we're complaining that they should settle and rebuild? The show runners can't win. Well, the farm kind of sucked as a place to rebuild a society. Alexandria made sense, from an infrastructure point of view. If only those idiots built a better wall... Anyway, it isn't a case of complaining for the sake of complaining. We want to see them settling and rebuilding, we just want to see it done well. Not with the bad writing we've gotten recently. And as others have pointed out, it would be a bit early to focus on rebuilding in season 2. But we're in season 6 now. It should be a focus at this point. And also, I'm already sick of Negan (sorry, Jeffrey Dean Morgan, who I usually like). Not a fan of JDM, so not looking forward to this too much. Granted, he isn't the first person I'd have thought of anyway with regards to Negan. 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/35160-s06e08-start-to-finish/page/7/#findComment-1761419
