I only go to a few places like DS and tumblr (I only go to DS now because of the ratings - most of the threads are abysmal), and they seemed negative, and talked a lot about how the whole episode was anti-abortion analogies. I'm not really sure if that was the show's intent - I doubt it. -
Rolling Stone picks their top 10 TWD episodes. I don't agree with some of the choices (especially choosing Governor-heavy episodes), but some are decent. http://www.rollingstone.com/tv/lists/10-best-walking-dead-episodes-20141010/claimed-season-4-episode-11-20141010

I'm still going slow through this - I just finished episode 4 - and it's interesting to me to see the live-on-tape era and how smooth most of the cast is. James Noble called the social worker "Dr. Berger" instead of "Mrs. Berger" and then corrected himself and it worked as part of how flustered the character was. I remember reading about a blooper on the show where a character is supposed to say, "I just balled out your son in the hallway" but instead says, "I just balled your son in the hallway." I wonder if that is going to happen, or if it already has, or if it was an urban legend.

Thanks. I'd never seen those. I'm glad they had no voice at all, just wind, for the episode where Maddy was murdered. Lucy's are cute (and increasingly tinny as they go along, for some reason). I wonder why no others did voiceovers. Those teasers do a better job of sustaining interest in the back half of season 2 than much of the material itself did. Is it me or is Cooper's dialogue in the recap somewhat OOC? "Shacking up"? Rolling Stone had a 30 best TP characters list, and while I don't agree with every part (Bobby should have been much, much higher), I think most of it is true and manages to get to the heart of most of the characters and why they worked. Vee, you may find the Josie one the most interesting. http://www.rollingstone.com/tv/lists/30-best-twin-peaks-characters-20141010/laura-palmer-20141010 Laura's, which is perfect: She gave the show its central mystery, and its zeitgeist-conquering catch phrase: Who killed Laura Palmer? But even though her death is literally what made the story possible, it's her life that made it matter. Unlike the macabre MacGuffins of so many post-Peaks dead-girl mysteries, Laura was not a beautiful cipher, existing solely to inspire the male detectives investigating her murder. She was a vibrant, complicated character in her own right, the person who best embodied the small-town-secrets theme, and who paid the highest price for those secrets. Her life, and the suffering that ended it, were always foregrounded. And our glimpses of her in the series – a videotape, an audio recording, a diary entry, a visitation from Another Place – were all merely a prelude to her starring role in the prequel film Fire Walk With Me, featuring actor Sheryl Lee's tear-down-the-sky performance of a character coming to grips with the most profound cruelty imaginable. "She's dead, wrapped in plastic"? Yes. But she'll live forever.

Under the Radar has had interviews throughout the week with Melissa McBride, Gale Ann Hurd, Josh McDermitt, Emily Kinney, Chad L. Coleman, Michael Cudlitz, Alanna Masterson, and Sonequa Martin-Green. http://www.undertheradarmag.com/artists/walking_dead_week There's also a full, extremely detailed review of the season 5 premiere. If any of you want it let me know and I'll send it via PM. I would post the link here but I know sometimes people click and then say they wish they hadn't.

Andrew Lincoln vaguely previews season 5, and proudly previews his huge messy beard. http://www.mtv.com/news/1958764/the-walking-dead-andrew-lincoln-interview/

Another familiar face at 2:45.

You have to see who is in this ad to believe it.

Short but effective cameo from a certain Eastenders legend here. Another teaser.

Great work.

They moved there in 1999 or 2000. I couldn't remember for sure, and then someone told me what I thought - Vicky Dawson played Dee in 1986. Not Schultz.

I put all the 81 and 82 synopses I had in earlier pages. I just can't remember what Nola was doing at this point.

Thanks for finding that. Is it right before the story where a psycho raped her or kidnapped her?
