^ Last week was one of the best weeks of the entire series. I think it would be hard to top that.

But yeah it would be nice to see the individual groups making some headway. So far the only interesting part has been Tyrese and the girls finding Carol and a potentially safe haven.

Glenn had one foot in the grave and the other on a banana peel when he was on that bus, yet he got off, found his way back to the prison and was healthy enough to climb up a level to safety? What's next? Headless Herschel returning?

Glenn and Maggie are a stupid selfish duo and I'm so very tired of them.


Wasn't particularly moved by the eppy tonight, so I'm gonna pass on TTD.

Seriously. Who the hell is Karen anyway? If she had three lines of dialogue the one episode she was in (and probably uncredited at that) I would be impressed. Tyrese liked her? Before this episode Tyrese himself was a non-entity.

Anyway, the creepy girl is the most interesting character on the show currently. Now that Carl is growing up too fast (and too tall) it will be up to Lizzie to carry on doing dangerous, tough and sort of psycho kid duties. Now I am wondering if maybe she killed our beloved Karen and if Carol was in fact just covering for her. Speaking of Carol, her return was a little too convenient. "I was in the neighborhood", really? Is that the best they could come up with?

I am happy to see Glen back to his scrappy self.

I don't think Maggie is "selfish" - she's in shock. Her father just died, horribly, in front of her, and she's obviously having PSTD (she zoned out at the bus and then went nuts, Rick-style on one of those walkers). I do think she would have mentioned Beth, but otherwise I bought it. Glenn is her touchstone.

The Daryl and Beth scenes were the least interesting part for me. Beth's old diary entry from early season 3 was a nice touch, but the scenes themselves dragged and I don't care about Daryl enough to invest in him on his own. Beth, well...Emily Kinney is a limited actress but I have a soft spot for Beth.

I have never been as scared watching this show as I was when Lizzie was smothering baby Judith. I had to fast-forward a little. I was terrified. Lizzie is just disturbed and I am increasingly convinced she killed David and Karen.

Carol's return was a little underwhelming, but nice to see her again, anyway. Melissa McBride did great work when Carol realized Tyreese was still in the dark about the murders.

I was hoping one or two of those guys would have survived the zombie pack.

Who knew Bob had such a nice body? I couldn't tell if he and Sasha had become a thing.

Enjoyed seeing Glenn managing to survive and thinking so smart. He broke my heart when he found out about Hershel. I like his pairing with Tara (always my favorite of that mess of people "Brian" found - too bad Martinez didn't survive too) and I hope they might become friends, that is if she makes it past next episode.

I thought the entrance of Abraham and his group was awful. It threw me out of the episode and he seemed like a weird, predatory cartoon. They apparently worked hard to recreate a comic book cover. Well, this is TV, no a comic book cover. Some anonymous woman in Daisy Dukes might be great on a comic. On the show she looked absurd.

Good episode, overall.

The opening scene was great. What an inspired thing, to pair such opposite individuals as Daryl and Beth. It should be interesting to see how many ways that implodes.

Maggie going through the bus was heart wrenching although Glenn's explanation that he got out of the bus was kinda thrown away and weak. But was worth it for the sight of him in riot gear laugh.png

I'm glad Judith's alive! Carol! How very soapy that Carol is now stuck with Tyrese.

WTF was that campy trio at the end? It felt like we suddenly stepped into DYNASTY-style acting. I hope that will change in the next episode lol

Great location work, btw. Really enjoying all the outdoors scenes we're getting to see. The train tracks was a particular favorite.


She did. She said she couldn't find Beth but she knows Glenn got out and which way he went, so she chose her best option.

    • I love my girl, but nope he's pathetic. 250K and now he's put her business at risk.   L O S E R

    • The whole town gushing over John Black as if he was a saint is eye rolling.  I guess death really colors people's memories over his many flaws, but I guess that is normal and human nature. I'm still confused as to why Leo hasn't been written out.  The actor stank up two soaps with his sub par acting, what does he have on TPTB's to remain on these soaps.   What's the point of Cat?  I hope the new head-writers figure out her purpose and develop her character. And I much prefer scenes not focusing on John's death because life does go on for the world when someone passes.  
    • Wasn't there a break in Zaslow's first run? I thought Roger was off-screen for a while, and when Zas came back, Roger was hiding at the boarding house and Nola figured out there was something hinkey about him. I'm pretty sure Simon chose to leave the first time and was replaced by RVV. I don't want to assume Jordan's issues played a role in his first departure, but Maeve said in an interview that at some point, it became very hard for her to work with him and she asked to work with him less. That seems to fit 1986, where suddenly Vanessa is essentially Ross' law clerk and not at every Lewis family moment.
    • He needs to divorce her arse with her constant cheating.   She's no better than Doug... she's F*cking pathetic.
    • I didn't know of any interruptions for Maeve Kinkead after her 1997 return. Her runs would then be 1981-1987, 1989-1996, 1997-2000, short arcs until the end. I knew Maureen Garrett second run was interrupted from a 2009 interview but I couldn't recall the exact year. Her runs would then be 1976-1980, 1988-2000, short arcs until the end.
    • As I said in May, I have no problem with Martin and Bradley being married. You can still do all the fun introloper storylines with them as you do everyone else. Both men of a certain age, and it is very believable for them to have either a first love or have been previously married. And, you can do it without either of them cheating!

       I said something similar during the premiere week. Bill was the perfect age to play Martin as Vernon and Anita's child. I would've much preferred this version, but oh well.
    • I don't know how you want to count Maeve. She "retired" in '00, but would come back for appearances. I don't know however if she made an appearance in '01 or '03. In '02 I believe she came back for Josh and Reva's wedding. I assume she came back when Gina Tognoni took over the role of Dinah. And I know she was back for Ross' memorial service. Maureen Garrett was around until at least '00. I don't think Holly was in town when Ben returned though. I just got pissed off about Jerry all over again.
    • So, pretty sure Zaslow, Garrett, Kinkead, and Newman all chose to leave the first time. (If that's wrong, please correct me). Bernau - not sure why he left the first time. Was it voluntary? Or did they decide to write him out? They were writing so many out during that time period. It always seemed odd to me that they introduced Alex, FINALLY giving him someone he could talk to, and then he was written out. Or maybe that's why they made Alex his sister, so she could take his place as the head of the Spaulding family? Would love more intel on that if anyone knows. Simon - was he replaced by RVV? Or did he voluntarily leave the first time? It seems to me like one of those times TPTB decided to sex up or glamorize a character (and it clearly flopped). If he was fired, interesting he came back. Again, would love if someone could spill the tea. Clarke - I've always assumed he left because of his personal issues, but not sure if that was the case the first time.
    • So Doug just leaves Vanessa there with Joey? He's a f*cking loser. Vanessa needs to divorce his arse
