Keep in mind that those ratings are a reflection of previous episodes -- not this one per se. Wonder how bad next week will be.

While true it may have followed that pattern to some extent the past few seasons, this season has taken it to a whole new level that cannot be reasonably denied by even the most loyal fans.

Dear Instagram trolls, body shamers, and the men and woman who think it's ok to comment on my weight: I hope that you don't have children. And if you do, I hope you teach them about kindness and acceptance. I hope they learn that it isn't ok to make fun of people or call people names. I hope one day YOU learn what it takes to be a parent. A kind, selfless parent. A working parent. A parent that puts themselves in someone else's shoes. Maybe you can't get it through your thick fucking skull, but nursing a baby for a year (and pumping in a van between takes, in the dead of summer in Georgia) is a lot of work, determination, and scheduling. So before you decide to make a comment about my chest being "too large" or how "fat" I've become, just know that this little girl got the best start to life. I wouldn't have changed it for a second. I would've gladly continued to eat enough calories to produce milk for her little bones to grow. Also, grow the fuck up. Your mother should be ashamed for raising such a judgmental bully. I'm sure she knows how "courageous" you must be for trolling and hiding behind your Iphone and computers. P.s. I would LOVE to see any man or woman give birth to a baby, nurse the baby, and then work 17 hour days and NAIL their own stunts. P.s.s. Be kind to each other. We need it now more than ever. ❤️✌��️ ]

Yeah, she certainly had to nail some pretty tough and impressive stunts (running, apparently).

If anybody is going there, really only the very first short season is immune. Same is true for pretty much every series that ramps everything up for a big finale (season or mid-season).

Well it's not really a complaint... just an observation on possible new rules in this zombie universe. The other example from a few episodes back was also clearly only through the throat as well.

But doesn't it seem at least a little off to be going on about the extra weight on Tara when other characters are carrying even more extra weight in a world where they would be lucky to be eating enough to keep their weight at healthy levels?

Whether actors or characters lose or gain weight in these types of shows is ludicrous. Even on LOST Hugo seemed to gain pounds. Probably why the writers added the pallet of food as a joke.

No shit! I hate on the show a lot, but complaining about an actors weight not matching their environment:

In TWD dead terms that comes down to how often they go on about the importance of finding food while at the same time having guys like Eugene still lumbering around in extreme obesity years after food has supposedly become scarce.

... They are the ones that stressed it, not the fans. :shrug:

I don't know if I saw this in the thread, but JDM confirmed on Stern this week that he'll be back for Season 8.

Yeah, fuck you. She looks fine, and the comments about her weight are stupid. Just like the people who make them.

Sure she looks fine for the typical American, say if you saw her shopping at Walmart or eating at McDonald's, she'd fit right in. But on a show where people are starving and practicing cannibalism to survive she and several of her co-stars totally look out of place.
