Walking Dead sucks. The writing sucks. The acting sucks. The direction sucks. The concept is stupid. It's too slow moving. They don't get the zombies right. And everyone who watches it is an asshole.

Does that cover it? Good... now nobody needs to bring these things up again in this thread.

Now that we've gotten that out of the way, feel free to discuss tonight's episode.

  • It's not enough like the comics.
  • AMC raped my childhood.
  • Where is Daryl getting all those bolts from? It's not like there are sporting goods stores in Georgia.

OOOOOOOOOhhhhhhh, That preview!

Good episode. They really gave it a large helping of comic nods (the barn, pregnancy, Carl getting the hat).

Episode was the Boring Dead.



I really hope Sophie isn't a season arc, even though it pretty much is at this rate.

I've never complained about this show, just enjoyed it for what it is.

However my wife, who likes everything, and loves zombie movies (I'm a lucky guy) was complaining about the writing and believability tonight. The well scene was beyond dumb.

In all honestly, we'll never give up on this show but geez.

Yeah, I enjoyed it, but the well scene was pretty silly. The zombie had blood dripping from its face, but hey, it's possible that the water still isn't contaminated, so... And all of those people on the rope couldn't pull the dude out faster than they did? And the guy didn't even try to climb up when he was getting close to the zombie, wtf?

That said, the zombie splitting apart was disgusting and awesome! I liked some of the character building as well.

Yep, the zombie splitting apart was awesome, no doubt about that!

So we can safely assume the baby is Shane's? I can't recall if Rick and Lori have had sex since they got back together.

Spoiler:
Daryl is riding through the woods when his horse is spooked by a snake and he falls into a creek. Ends up badly injured with one of his arrows puncturing his side

Good episode. I, at least, liked it. How many more are there?

Well they just got season 3 approved... so I reckon a dozen more episodes (at least) after this season.

The well scene was beyond stupid, but had a cool payoff.

If the zombie in there was already bleeding, couldn't they see that that would already pollute the water? They should've just shot it in the head in the first place.

Spoiler:
then again, reading the comics, I know why the doc's daughter didn't want it to be shot. But that doesn't explain why the others wanted to get it out of the well


I certainly wouldn't want to drink any water that had a zombie in it.

So the whole episode had a single zombie in it?
So boring. When was Frank out? Episode 5? Hope it gets better.

Great episode. Plenty of going on with each character despite only having one AWESOME zombie.

I agree with half that. You-da-man, Josh.

One zombie? In a well? This was like an episode of Dexter where he gives someone a paper cut. And they still haven't found the girl? Let her die, move on to zombie town!

The bloated zombie in the well was pretty disgusting, although the break apart scene was tasty.
Then Dale was like, "Uh, we should probably cap that well" Yeah, I would hope so.

I'm going to have to watch again on In Demand tomorrow, because stupid AMC kept freezing for several minutes at a time on Time Warner Cable. After the third or fourth time, I just shut it off. Very frustrating. I didn't even bother trying to watch Hell on Wheels because of it.
