BasilSeal May 21, 2016 Share May 21, 2016 Interesting choice of episode title. In Hinduism Shiva is the god who destroys the world so that it may be re-made. given that last weeks title was from the Old Testament then it's likely that the title also refers to Shiva the Jewish period of mourning for a close family member. 2 Link to comment
Muffyn May 22, 2016 Share May 22, 2016 I predict Madison will make a face like she's smelling a fart, Travis and Madison will be unable to communicate like normal adults, and I will be bored. 6 Link to comment
BasilSeal May 22, 2016 Share May 22, 2016 probably best not to watch it then, we wouldn't want you to get bored. 1 Link to comment
SoSueMe May 22, 2016 Share May 22, 2016 At this point I have invested enough time in this, I have to catch the finale. Anyone know or willing to guess if there will be a season three? Link to comment

I'm really kind of surprised. Maybe this finale will dispose of some of the more annoying, unbelievable characters... Link to comment

Down to the ratings i suppose, if people watch it then they'll make more, personally i think though it has its faults it's no where near as bad as the majority opinion on here makes out. At this point on TWD they'd burned through a couple of show runners already, were stuck in the interminable plot quagmire that was Herschel's farm and the show still featured the single most appalling human being ever depicted on any television show anywhere, Lori Grimes. And yet loads of people, me included, watched it, so they made some more. I'd far rather watch this show than sit through season two of TWD again, i'm sure there were three whole episodes devoted to the hand wringing over what do do about that guy rick pulled of the railing spike. 14 minutes ago, SoSueMe said: Maybe this finale will dispose of some of the more annoying, unbelievable characters... Possibly, it's the mid season finale and the sister show has killed off more people than smallpox so a major character death could be seen as well overdue. The episode title hints at mourning for a close family member, but that could refer to Thomas. So far this show has concentrated on the character development more than the comic book ultra violence, the drama has come from the conflict in the family relationship, if they kill some of those characters off then it destroys the balance. depends if they're done with that story line and intend to go in a different direction. 1 Link to comment
MostlyContent May 23, 2016 Share May 23, 2016 (edited) This is just the end of the 1st half of season 2, is that correct? Then sometime later this year, we get blessed (ha) with the 2nd half? ETA: It looks like BasilSeal already answered my question. :) Edited May 23, 2016 by MostlyContent Link to comment
oakville May 23, 2016 Share May 23, 2016 I am looking forward to the mid season finale. I hope I don't have to watch Talking Dead or scour the Internet to figure out the plot. This show is annoying when it doesn't show key events in the story. Last week , they didn't show the gun battle between Luis & the Border Patrol. Link to comment

For example, Nick's addiction seems to have randomly been lifted and he's become one of the more responsible characters. Maybe there is way more to come in Strands story, but it seems like he was being presented as this sociopathic evil genius villain and now it turns out that he is a tragic, romantic figure. Of course reality is random too, I guess, but I think I was expecting a more cohesive plot. I will say that the actor playing Nick has not been a disappointment, he's done a great job, imo. 3 Link to comment

minamurray78 May 23, 2016 Share May 23, 2016 Ok Travis, i get you wanna be on your son's side, but really, waking up to a dude holding a knife while he's standing in your room, is kinda fishy. 1 Link to comment

candall May 23, 2016 Share May 23, 2016 Okay, let's review. I'm still sure Celia is a faithful retainer who became close with the family after years of service. What's with all the mi casa es no su casa? 2 Link to comment

Nick is fine now with no relapses. Chris is acting like a fool threatening Alicia. Travis is oblivious to the situation. Daniel is having the some flashbacks. Link to comment
