The Walking Dead, Am I Alone?

Love it! I also watch Fear the Walking Dead and on a more lighthearted note, Izombie too.

I had to google that...a TV show about a woman who became a zombie, but is maintaining a (kind of) "normal" lifestyle. Interesting!

I see DirecTV carries the CW channel that iZombie airs on. I'll have to check my listings for DirecTV, after I'm done watching Netflix.
 
Exceptionally good episode. I knew Carol would escape but at one point it was hard to see how. :eek:
 

It was a good episode, but, if this is what all the show is going to be about in the future I may be coming to the end of my love affair with the series. People for centuries have had to deal with killing battling the enemy doesn't mean they all had to change their core or humanity, it's starting to irk me a bit that they're using this as an excuse to change, mainly Rick, into a Governor like character. I do like the layers of emotions they are showing that the characters are going through, but, I'm disappointed with what their doing with the Rick character and the direction the show looks to be going in general. Hopefully my feelings will change by end of this season or at least during season 7 or ,8,9 12 :D
 
I don't know; killing people in their sleep one week and burning people alive the next. I think they could've made their point other ways apocalypse or not.

They made cancer stick lady terminal so they could 'rationalize' taking her out. Tattoo girl was a female dog, off her, nothing to see, move along. Abusive boyfriend, deep sixing him "ok".

But the leader girl, red head is one those characters you want to see more of. One of those guest actors or onetime characters that stole the show.

Also, intelligence gathered. Important people evacuated-still alive?, To where? DC walled off, still?
 
I agree, April. But I was told that's the direction the comic-book series went...from fighting walkers to fighting humans in a degenerating society.

I didn't read any of the books.

Did you? I'm curious to know if the books got this mad-dog crazy.

I'm wondering if there will be more about DC people. I believe Alexandria was their destination, wasn't it? Or did Lady Governor Deanna miss the plane?

The Paula character figured larger in the book series, I was told.

I haven't read the comics,per we,but,I read pieces of it that were posted on various sites and unfortunately it does head in the direction we've been seeing. I just hoped like with much of the tv series it would change direction only this time a whole lot off course of where the comics go. The comics storylines still isn't finished, the are only written to a certain point as the TV series is catching up so at some point there will likely be some more change,as it is I don't believe Maggie was with child past this point nor were certain characters alive, some who are dead would still be alive and different people were sometimes coupled up. Abe's triangle romance happened, but it was worse than what we see in the tv show.

I don't know where they will all end up, but I'm sad to see what they've done with the person who first drew me into the show that being Rick.
 
Good episode, although I think that Carol and Maggie's captors were a little too "warm and fuzzy" towards them, considering that Carol and Maggie were members of the group that murdered all of the Negan clan.

I don't think that the writers will make Rick into another "governor", I'm betting that this 'preemptive' killing experience will cause Rick and the group to be pensive, and reflect on the evil that they had committed, and how their humanity had slipped a little further out of their grasp. I'm hoping, anyway.

I hope so, too. The likeliest alternative would be Rick getting killed. Now that he and Michonne are a thing, that possibility is either inevitable or prohibitive.

One of the things I love about this series is the absolute uncertainty. It's refreshing and compelling.

I too hope so Thomas, I really hope Rick will be as reflective as some of the others.

Yeah, the uncertainty is a special part of the show, but,I can't stand to be too blindsided so I do check to find out ahead of an upcoming episode if any of the regulars will be meeting their end.. I do know one of the gang doesn't do so well at the finale, I'm not yet sure who that will be and if they will live to see past opening scenes of season 7.
 
Yes, poor Denise, even though I had read the spoilers and knew it was going to happen about when it did,I still wasn't prepared for the execution of it. Well only one episode left before the season finale. This yesr I am definitely checking the spoilers beforehand. I need to prepare myself for the big one that's suppose to go down.
 
Well it better not be Daryl cause there will be a riot. As for Denise, I gotta say I was not expecting what happened and really feel sorry for her.
 
Yea, I thought that Denise would be around for a bit, she had just overcome her fears...

I actually thought that Eugene was way overdue to "get it".....:shrug:
 
A person like Carol was bound to have a break point, she started off killing to protect the group as a whole, but, she didn't set out to hunt down and kill people. She saw in that women at the holding place she and Maggie were at, exactly who she was becoming, cold and unfeeling, but, this has been building long before, even before little Sam was killed, even before Morgan got into her head, I'm surprised people are surprised, because I thought she was going to leave end of last season, that's how distraught she seemed to me. It woul be a true travesty if they kill Carol off, I rather they just let her go roam the country maybe someday we see her years later at end of the whole series.
 
That's a good analysis of Carol, April. I had forgotten about what she was experiencing while she and Maggie were held hostage.

I am surprised that Sasha [apparently] has had a change of heart....? Seems like their 'world' is a bit too small for comfort, with having "ex" partners and such...

I heard in the comics Abe had sort of a two timing thing or something like that with Rosita and Sasha, I think the writers might be craming/rushing Abe's story for a reason,but at the same time I'm not sure if he and Sasha are actually going to be a couple, but considering all that each of them have been through and the world in which they are living, plus they had a genuine connection, if he and Rosita are over well, I guess, each of them are good with it. I might not would be but, then I living like they are who knows , I might start just clubing guys and dragging them to my tent till I'm done with them. :D
 
Hi.

I'm into this series. It's one of the few reasons I'll turn on the television. I got interested when a kid who paints houses with me sometimes (kid, as in, he's 30-something) sat and read the TWD comic books during our breaks. He told me it was made into a TV series and I promised I'd check it out. Next day he brought me a DVD of the first 3 seasons, and bam!...I was hooked.

Aw don't say that. I've always liked Eugene. He's every bit as much a survivor as the others only he uses his wits where the others are brave and well organized fighters.

I don't wish Eugene any ill will, I've just seen characters that I liked more "get it" way too soon.

I liked Denise, she was an asset to the community, she was very human with her mix of bravery and vulnerability. I actually thought at one point that she was trying to 'connect' with Daryl personally. I guess it was just and oatmeal cake....:shrug:
