Told you so.
I needed a mod to change my signature because the concept of "family friendly" eludes me.
Just noticed that a mod changed my signature. How long ago was that?

Okay, skinny Glen slid under the dumpster.  :laugh:

My question now is, who cried for help on the radio? Unless I missed it, Glen didn't do so while under the dumpster. Possibly someone from next week's episode? I'm not sure what the episode time synch is between the bait vehicle scenes and Alexandria.

It's a 24 hour sequence. My bet on who called is now the couple who stole Darryl's bike.

That was my thought too at the time.  I didn't even consider Glen until you guys mentioned it a few posts ago.

One thing that changed for me in last night's episode is that there is now a *expletive deleted*che teenager on there so bad that I'm rooting for Carl.  :laugh:


Then there was this (paraphrased):

Rick to Maggie: "We've got lots of time to think things through and do everything right."

Michonne to Rick: "What about getting the Alexandria people in on this?"

Rick to Michonne: "We don't have time."*

 :laugh:

*Yes, I know this was just Rick still not trusting the residents.

Wait what? I  watched the last episode and missed the Glenn alive part. I must have dozed off  :old:

Oh, and no one is freaking losing their minds that Lori is back?

(In the form of Judith, as observed by Maggie?)

No cry and hue for Judith to be fed to walkers because she's worthless, idealistic, and weak?

Wow. You guys surprise me...

But, I bet had Maggie said Judith was beginning to look a lot like Shane the walker feeding would have happened....  >:D

I may have to stop watching after tonight. When the Wolf had a knife to the Doc two women, who regularly make running head shots, give up their weapons rather than open fire. STUPID STUPID STUPID!!!!!

Indeed.  That was even worse than Morgan's stupidity.  Speaking of which: when someone says he's going to kill you, take him at his word.

And then there's Sam.

"Mom."

"MOM!"

Yup, several WTFs in this episode. I want both her kids to be eaten. Regarding the Wolf, as much as Morgan is to blame, Carol was not too bright creating her "must kill him now" distraction. It looks like the writers are making her and Morgan Ying and Yang.

Then of course the topper of "let's give the maniac who kills everybody just for fun our guns because all of a sudden we have can no longer make miraculous head shots".

I thought that the scenes with Deanna, Rick, and Michonne were really good though.

Yeah, these last few episodes have really had a LOT of  :facepalm: moments in them...

It's about time they pulled out the walker camouflage again.

And the whole time Alexandria has been surrounded I've been wondering... did the walkers really flood the ENTIRE circumference? That really doesn't make much sense...

and...

Why the hell haven't they been working to reduce the numbers with a little stabby stabby from the walls?

and

If they did surround the entire circumference, why haven't they worked to open a gap through which someone could get outside (using the aforementioned walker camouflage) WITH THE GODDAMNED FLARE GUNS THAT RICK SAYS ARE IN THE ARMORY AND START SHOOTING THE DAMNED FLARES TO START THE HERD MOVING AWAY?!!!

I really like this show, but given that Rick's group has been working through and surviving for the past couple of years, you'd think that they would have learned at least a FEW things about surviving walkers.

I know the writers are trying to make things dramatic, but it's really getting to the point where they're being insulting as hell to the fan base because they have the characters make the same mistakes over and over and over and over and over.

This whole thing with the walkers at the walls made me think that with a .22 rifle, a couple of bricks of ammo, a couple of days of work, the whole herd could have been eliminated with minimal effort.  Hell, even after they came through the fence, sitting on a roof picking off walkers wouldn't have been too hard.

.22 apparently does not exist in the Walking Dead universe.

I've been screaming about a Ruger 10/22 and Hot Lips mags for years.

Why in the hell did they apparently forget about, or abandon, suppressors?

If they were smart, they'd go back to the damned quarry, blow the road to turn it into a pit in the ground, and turn it into one hell of a big walker trap.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't Carol have a handgun in a holster on her hip?  Why resort to the knife?  Because the writers wanted to make the fight "fair" (knife vs. quarterstaff)?

One more thing that puzzles me . . . walkers are attracted to noise, right? Well, when walkers start gasping (some variation of "ARGGGH!") . . . why don't they attract other walkers? Seems like there should be big piles of walkers around the countryside, all making gasping noises, with hardly any walking around loose by themselves . . .

My guess is that she didn't want to attract walkers. Then again, they all seem to enjoy using itty bitty knives all the time. Plus yeah, shooting him first thing takes away from all the drama. Kinda like in James Bond movies where the villain talks on and on about how he's gonna kill Bond, then Bond escapes and kills the villain.  :laugh:

Though you can kill a bad guy first thing and without a lot of talk and still have drama:
