The Walking Dead

Everyone's infected according to the CDC guy from Season One.

What's weird is that if the kid with glasses caught something that speeds up the process (a supervirus... something), coughs whatever he had into the water supply, and dies?

Either dorky kid spreads his zombie-ness while everyone sleeps...

OR

...anyone who feels the need to loofah their taint is gonna get a special surprise that they can spread to rest of the community.

yeah but that made up junk is only supposed to occur when the body dies,not during or before...how is the pig related?

[JayDizzle]

or..don't shake hands with someone who licks them beforehand LOL

That freeze-dried squirrel stew is killer.

Literally.

[JimLeavy59]

Any explanation on how Zombies have a super strong bite? Hot does rotting flesh get stronger?

Thats something that's been bothering me with this show. I'd rather them just steal the clickers from The Last of Us.

[ram29jackson]

yeah LOL you can squash their heads like paper but they can grab your lower leg from behind and bring you down...?

[Buzzman]

Filler episode already?

[LiquidLarry2GhostWF]

Zombie physics has never quite been perfected.

Its either one of two ways...

A Zombie is a human with a virus that manifests itself after death and these types are are some animalistic motherfuckers that run and jump and shit.

OR

A Zombie is a dead human, bought forth by some mystical force (Apololypse, or just because, etc.) and they tend to slow prodding motherfuckers that herd.

The Walking Dead can't seem to figure out which one is better, so they have traits of them all and are manipulated depending on what dumb drama they want to create.

After over a year fighting these fuckos, I don't understand how this group of people still finds themselves into these Zombie-rific situations. You'd figure they'd all have crossbows by now, they'd have a ton of shit scouted out (including the whole fucking prison considering the numbers they have), shit cleaned up (again, they have a whole town worth of hands on deck), and more protection outside the compound (for fucks sake, Rick and his son were already at Morgan's spot where they saw how successful his set up was at keeping Walkers at bay and its not like they lack wood to build the protection around the prison, they are surrounded by forest).

The Walkers keep trying to breach fence...why not set up the perimeter, especially where they have high density Walker clutter, with the sharp logs surrounding the fuckin perimeter? Why is the place not cleaned the fuck up? Common sense shit, once you have a community going.

This show really should've invested in a story line or two outside of Rick and friends. Have a couple who's out alone with a baby. Have someone who is being held back by a disabled loved one. Have a group of only teen survivors who have some Lord of the Flies, Game of Thrones politics going on. Anything. I say should've because it appears too late now.

Now that they have nowhere to go with the prison, they of course are gonna blow the whole thing up and everyone is gonna end up in the same position they already were in during season 2, 3, and probably 1. This is one of the few shows that I think needs to be more sprawling, but that's because no single character or group is interesting enough to hold it down themselves.

The pig was supposed to represent Rick's hope in the situation that he's currently in.

He's got a group to protect, a place to hole up in where everywhere else has gone to shit, and people he cares for.

When he meets Carrie, she's basically a reminder of what happens when you don't have that and you still survive... somehow... in the world they live in.

When the pig dies, it shows that there's no place for hope in the world he lives in.

That even with the facade of how "helpful" the prison is and that there's a future with the new group he's formed with the survivors of Woodbury and more...

It's bullshit and the clock's still ticking until they all die.

LOL yeah ,right ,what ever? shut up with the representation bullshit. 12 million watch the show for zombies- period.

I watch it because the concept is so stupid and just want to see how the whole thing ends. I'm always flipping between this and the football game

[Pitty]

This show is just so fucking bad now.

[ram29jackson]

This show is just so fucking bad now.

what do you expect ? they are trying to give real world drama to a stupid concept. Of course we are talking about a childish generation who thinks adopting a tv show from a comic book series as a good idea.

Falling skies is stupid LOL but I'm amused by it

[ram29jackson]

ok...so, which one gets offed first?

[Houston]

That new skinny black guy, he apparently didn't get the memo...

[ram29jackson]

but he's a army medic and alcoholic, gotta keep that around for a while I suppose LOL

[Buzzman]

Just leave the thread ram, you aren't adding anything as usual. When someone complains about the show, you can respond with something other than "What did you expect? OMGZZZZ Its a zombie show, not a drama." The comics provided some really nice stories and characters that are compelling and would be good if they were adapted correctly, but they aren't. That would be fine if their own stories or deviations were good, but they are atrocious plot lines that save them as much money as possible.
