I was out of pocket last week, but the show must go on. 8:00 Central

Tape the WS if you must.

Almost game time....

I feel like walking dead is starting to decline. I've always hated Karl but some of the other characters are starting to become unbearable

I agree. I am now looking more forward to homeland and boardwalk empire coming on than walking dead.

I'm with you here. I am particularly sick of Glenn. He is such a little *****. Herschel is wearing on me as well. The acting is awful at times.

I do find the beginning of this season better so far than last season, though.

I agree. The story is evolving nicely. I knew they needed a fresh idea and I didn't see this one coming. Will be interesting how it plays out

Wow, that was a hell of a swerve last night. I had considered the revealed culprit as a possibility at the end of last week's episode because I felt like the show needed a jolt, but I dismissed the idea pretty quickly. It will be interesting to see how things are handled from here. With that said, I do agree with other posters that the show is in dire need of a couple more strong characters. Rick and Daryl are still Rick and Daryl, but Glenn, Herschel, and ol Carl just ain't cutting it... They've really focused the story on the more boring part of the cast so far this season

TWD starting declining when they got to the farm. Season 2 was boring as hell. Then last season they built up the finale all year only for it to be one of the biggest blue ball episodes of television I've ever watched.

Some of you folks could complain about a blow job.

TWD is awesome. This season is awesome. Listening to some of you, its a wonder the show is still on the air seeing as how its been steadily declining since season 1.

How about 20,000 walkers roadblocking the way to the vet clinic. Holy ****. And Glen got the funk. Holy ****. And Hershel got sprayed in the face by somebody with the funk. Holy ****.

Same goes for Breaking Bad. Y'all hated half the characters on that show so much.

That was cool. Unfortunately it was only about 3 minutes of the show. TWD should stick to stuff like this...any time it tries to get any deeper the terrible writing and acting make it hard to watch.

And Glen got the funk. Holy ****.

Good, I hope he dies. He is awful.

And Hershel got sprayed in the face by somebody with the funk. Holy ****.

Good, I hope he dies too. That was awesome how he then took his mask off and smeared the blood all over his face, including near his lips, and smiled like “Hey it’s all good”.

Same goes for Breaking Bad. Y'all hated half the characters on that show so much.

Hating characters on a show does not make it a good or bad show. You can hate characters because they are brilliantly written and acted and as such they evoke that emotion in you (such as with BrBa), or because they are terribly written, terribly acted, and have long since outlived their capacity to be interesting (TWD).

I think the writers are smart enough to realize that they can't just blow the heads off of zombies for an hour every week. There has to be some character building.

That being said, I think the next few episodes are going to have a lot more action because I think the Governor is going to make an appearance pretty soon. I have a feeling all of those walkers congregated at the vet clinic had something to do with him.

The last few episodes of season 2 were awesome. And when they introduced the governor in season 3 it had so much promise. And the writers took a huge dump on it. Now all they've done is created a bunch of more red shirts that nobody cares about. Oh hey look this kid died in the shower and assaulted a cell block...with nobody that anybody cares about.

Could it be possible that was the Gov. on the Radio?

I don't think so.

Too soon for him to return I think.

My guess, the voice on the radio was some popular characters from the comic that are rumored to be in this season.

I didn't even think about that. I know 3 comic characters will be introduced soon. That makes a lot of sense.

I was guessing the Gov had been feeding the zombies rats to get them congregating and pushing on the fence.

Or maybe that was just a guy that hates Dan Mullen.

Plot line definitely Devon Bell'd last night with the reveal of the killer of

sick people.

Things are about to get in motion very soon for these guys to be out on the road again. Those gigantic herds of walkers will get more screen time I bet.

Just watched the episode. I just get the feeling that the new black guy is going to turn out to be major trouble. Tyrese is psycho. And I was shocked about Carol killing the two sick ones. I also hate Karl.

Also, have any of y'all watched Hell on Wheels? I just watched the first three seasons and really enjoyed it. Was wondering what some of y'alls thoughts were. Someone in this thread talked about characters that were written to be hated, and that made my mind go straight to the Swede in HoW.

I never said it sucks. It just isn't what everyone makes it out to be anymore. I watched the last couple seasons of 24 as well even though they were subpar. At that point I was invested in the show and wanted to watch it to the end.

I think the killer is covering up for one of the little ones. The one who took the knife probably did it bc Those 2 were the ones that killed the pet Walker Nick.
