The Walking Dead Season 5

[ChrisL]

It was a pretty good one tonight, although I wasn't crazy about all the focus on Beth. These new people seem . . . interesting though. That lady cop seems kind of crazy. I'm glad that sleaze bag guy cop got eaten by the zombie.

I have to give Beth credit that she finally showed a little bit of toughness tonight. That was good.

I liked the episode and I like the new antagonist, but I thought it was one of the weaker episodes. I mean dropping into a pit of Walkers without any weapons is not a great plan.

Well, to be fair, I think those were walkers that they had killed already and their body parts. Ewww. I wouldn't want to have to do that either though. Did you hear the noise when they landed on the dead bodies. Gross.

Outstanding episode last night! Who do you guys think Daryl brought back with him?

After seeing last nights episode it's pretty obvious it's the black kid from the hospital.

My prediction is this. Daryl and Carol were scoping out the hospital and then they came across the black kid and recognized him from his hospital clothes. Carol then decided to go undercover as a patient, while Daryl and the black kid get reinforcements.

Hmm. Interesting. That makes sense.

 

[ChrisL]

I think the kid who played Noah in the hospital is a good actor, I'm interested to see what he brings to the table.

Walker food this season is my guess.

I hope not. He was like the only normal one in that hospital!

Kind of an interesting dynamic they had going on in last night's episode. At first glance, the hospital looks like a slice of the old world preserved.

However, it turns out that the whole thing is ultimately run off of wage slavery, kidnapping, and repression.

It was also an interesting twist seeing that the bitchy cop woman was basically bribing her men with sex (basically pawning off the women in the hospital off as sex toys) to keep in them in line. That was actually one of the first questions I had about the whole thing.

If she's such a raging *****, and her men are such creeps, why wouldn't they have just taken power for themselves? Now we know! lol

Yeah, I wonder what is going to happen when this group meets the rest of the crew? That should make for interesting viewing. I see conflict.

Rick might get to use his red handled machete again.

I don't know. They might not start fighting right away, but I can't be sure. I can't wait until the two groups meet up though! Next week, they are going to be concentrating on the other group though with Glenn and Maggie, or at least that's how it appeared by the previews!

 

[Gracie]

I still don't know why the ***** hasn't been overrun by the guys. Whats stopping them? Her dirty looks? Pahlease.

Meanwhile I liked Noah. I hope he sticks around the whole season.

They did just kidnap Carol, so I'm betting that Rick and company won't be too pleased about that, at the very least.

Yea. That whole set up seemed a bit far-fetched, to be honest.

Though... To be fair, Gorman did seem to be planning something before he got killed.

Another poster mentioned that maybe it's a set up with Carol pretending to be injured just to get in there and see what's up. It's plausible.

It's certainly possible. I guess we'll just have to wait and see.

 

[NYcarbineer]

Same subplot, different location. For about the fifth time now, I think.

A few items. She might be a hell of a shot and great in a gun fight. Physical strength isn't always the determining factor. She might have some backing that we don't know of. Lastly, she is allowing her men to have fun with the women of the hospital, so they might not want to rock the boat!

Not really. Woodbury was more of a refuge then people made it out to be. People had food, water, security and even electricity. They were free from rape and vicious attacks. I never saw the Governor as evil as they made him out to be.

Terminus was much different. It wasn't a refuge, it was a slaughterhouse and nightmare, but it was really only 2 episodes.

The hospital is different. It's a pleasure cruise for strong and hell for the week!

 

[Gracie]

I liked the town the governor had control over. Too bad the governor was a dick.

 

[CrusaderFrank]

The theme throughout the Walking dead is basically that mankind sucks and is probably not worth preserving as a species.

I liked the idea of Rick and crew arriving at an Indian reservation to find there are no Walkers because the Walkers are just the insanity of white people coming back to bite them.

There was an episode where they pick up a hitchhiker as Rick is about to attack the Governor and I thought the conversation would go;

Hitchhiker: So where are you guys going?

Rick: We're going to attack the Governor and his people

Hitchhiker: There's only a small handful of humans left...and you're attacking each other?

Rick: Yeah, that''s right. I have to keep my people safe.

Hitchhiker: OK, great , drop me off here at the next corner

What about when he shot down his own guys in cold blood? That was pretty bad. He was a pretty bad guy IMO.

Well to be fair, Rick and the crew aren't going around trying to find trouble. Trouble finds them! They have to protect themselves. There's no other choice, other than to let others kill you or leave you with nothing so that you eventually die. Humans, like any animals, are quite brutal when they are desperate. ALL animals are.

 

[Gracie]

To Rick, being safe means NOBODY else alive. Walkers OR live people. THEN and only then will he feel safe. Unless he decides animals are not safe to be around either. And trees. And flowers. etc.
He lost his marbles long ago and his bratty kid Carrrrrrl is even crazier.

The point is they never seem to get a clue and leave the area where they keep running into trouble.

Well then there wouldn't be much of a SHOW, would there?
