AMC's The Walking Dead

Shane is a douche.
Otis got ate up.
Daryl is about the only one I really like. I know plenty of people like him.

 

And we have our first sex scene ...

Kudos to whomever called that one.

 

I have a Sophia conclusion.

They come upon a Walker and it turns out to be Sophia. The mother of course, already unstable, doesn't want her killed. But of course they have to. I think that's a good ending to that scenario.

 

I'm to the point where I want that to be over -- one way or the other.

And from the looks of things, the story is about to get a lot more interesting next week.

 

Really slow episode this week. Hopefully the story picks up next episode. The Sophia storyline needs to end, one way or another.

 

Slow, shitty episode. Ending was good, but the other 59 minutes blew. Nothing happened.

 

I think the Sophia thing is dragging too much..whichever way it ends up, we're going to be disappointed since it took so long to get there.

I thought the episode was alright. Nice to see Glen get in the show more. I was on the edge of my seat during the well and I like how it's more like how things would go if this actually happened. You choose not to do the easy thing (shoot the zombie), only to have it blow up on you later, making you wish you would have just done the easier thing first. Sure, that scene could have been two minutes long, but I liked how they paced it out instead.

That said, this was the worst episode of the franchise.

 

Oh...and SIDE BOOB! How can we complain?

 

I'm with all of you - the pace was too slow, and it's been a problem since the pilot. The narrative needs to advance. Shane and Otis's Excellent Adventure was the only thing that's happened since the pilot.

Here's a solid take at EW.com If you've got four minutes, I suggest you watch the vlog - http://popwatch.ew.com/2011/11/07/walking-dead-moving-too-slowly/

The pharmacy sex was kind of odd. I guess I can understand the rationale of it. The crave of normalcy and the desire to overcome loneliness. Glenn stammering when he got busted was quite funny.

Also, "water zombie" was so fucked up that an actor yacked on set during the scene. I saw it in some interviews before the season. They wouldn't name the culprit, though. Ha.

 

Saw that!!

 

After having read comic book spoilers on wiki, I can say this. They've changed enough up with the show to leave those who had read the comics very surprised and or pissed off.

Either way, I dont' think any episode has been a dud. Great show.

 

You go Glenn.
What's the deal with Herschel telling them to GTFO as soon as they can? Why doesn't he want them to have guns? I'm leaning toward the girl having sex with Glen on instructions because of the look she gave Herschel when they returned. Then, Herschel's speech about things going on he wasn't going to discuss was telling in a sense.

* just did a bit of a search and got an idea on some of my questions. but as someone said before, the show veered off from the comic early on.
