Who said Carl was going to get out? Who wants him to get out?

What happened to Tyrese & Carol? Beth? Judith?!

Tyrese and Carol start a daycare.

Beth keeps on being a moron who risks life and limb for fucking alcohol.

Using random parts and tools they find in the train cars, they build elaborate weapons and modified vehicles. Then the A-Team theme starts playing as they burst out and fight off the bad guys, mostly by shooting the ground around their feet. Abraham then lights a cigar and says, "I love it when a plan comes together."

Who said Carl was going to get out? Who wants him to get out?

I do. He has his issues but he's developed and he's a better character than he was.

What happened to Tyrese & Carol? Beth? Judith?!


Tyrese and Carol start a daycare.

Beth keeps on being a moron who risks life and limb for fucking alcohol.

What did she do or propose that was significantly more risky than wandering around in the woods, just the two of them? I mean buildings can mean people and they can be trouble but they could've run into people in the woods too and there wouldn't have been much they could do about it except try to hide.

I doubt he'll do any real day-saving, but it's a possibility.

Haven't watched it yet, but assuming it's as mediocre as the rest of this season, and last season, I'm not sure I care.

Walking Dead has it's moments, but by and large, I find it mind numbing to watch.

It's also kinda hard to care about zombies when Continuum is back and I can have sweet, insane, awesome time-traveling goodness (admittedly Continuum can fall flat sometimes as well, but at least it holds my attention). Oh, and SHIELD is back tomorrow. Maybe now they can finally finish the season without wandering off for a billion years.

When Rick went fucking berserk... oh man.

I know Walking Dead gets shit on a lot, but I really do enjoy the show and thought this was one of the best seasons yet.

I keep thinking that the Terminus folks think they're herding cattle, but they've actually reunited an alpha wolf with his pack. Rick has no mercy left in him. He's going to come out of that train car like a wild animal.

That whole sequence with meeting the "claimers" hit me like a freight train. I thought they weren't going to catch up to Rick and company until they got to Terminus, and I wasn't expecting what they did. I wasn't able to enjoy Rick's little move to turn the tables because I was reeling from what they were doing to Carl and maybe Michonne, and/or what they were going to do.
I don't know what to think about Daryl. He said he didn't know what they were but, well, that's a damn lie. They killed that one other guy, the one Daryl had friction with, they beat him to death. He might have had a history of being a jerk and/or breaking the rules but that's still harsh, and unless they just decided not to show it, they didn't explain it. Going along with that, Daryl seemingly didn't ask about it, like whether it was a common occurrence or what he did to deserve it. He watched them do it even. I think that says something about Daryl, how similar he is to those guys, or maybe how much he's learned to let things slide or how much he wanted to be in a group. I just thought of this too, what exactly did he think was going to happen when he told them not to get revenge on Rick? He just kind of stood there and told them to stop and that they were wrong, this not long after the aforementioned killing of one of their group. What was he thinking?
I also don't know what to think about what Rick has been doing. I thought, even before this episode, that he shouldn't have killed that guy in the house. It was effective and I get that he felt like he was trapped with a bunch of savages, but that was overkill, he could've tried holding that guy hostage until Carl and Michonne got back and then working something out, or tried to figure something else out.
Then there's what he did within an hour of getting into Terminus. Maybe he was picking up on things that weren't evident, but they didn't say that during Talking Dead like they did when he shot those guys in the bar. Three disparate items like that is a pretty big coincidence, but it was possible they were unrelated, and it was possible, as far as he knew, that the people who had that stuff were dead. Regardless of what he knew or thought or what the writers or show-runners say or might have said, I think killing that guy, the one with the watch, was unnecessary, uncalled-for, overreacting, and just not a great decision. Maybe he had some feeling he couldn't use him as a hostage for long enough to get anything done, but why not try, and why kill him? Rick has made great strides in dealing with this new world, but I think he has, probably for the second time, swung too far, maybe just a little too far but still too far, towards the side of letting his instincts and his feelings, especially anger, dictate what he does.
