I'm on Season 4

I'm enjoying it on the whole but 3 was boring as fuck. Governor was such a shit villain

---

lol she's reading Tom Sawyer

"Tom Sawyer, you tricked me. This Zombie outbreak is less fun than previously indicated!"

---

Glenn has not had a good time of it has he?

Used as a canary, tortured and now this sick?

He's the Miles O'Brien of this show

---

Lolwut?

Grimey and Carl just won?

There was like 450 zombies and they just shot them all off screen?

I really thought theywere getting overwhelmed.

---

Oh no! The Governor is back and he's watchizzZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Its so bad. Watched a few episodes with my friends(who loved it) a long time ago and it's legit probably the worst show I've ever seen.

You must have never turned on CBS.

there is a character introduced in this next
i think the next episode he is going to watch
her name is tara

an interesting bit of trivia about her is that her brothers are also actors
her one brother played francis in malcolm in the middle
and her other brother played hyde in that 70s show

---

Why are they trying to make us sympathetic to the guv?

Aww poor guy. Went nuts, murdered 60 people, tortured his girlfriend to death and was generally an asshole

What a sad story

No fuck him and his boring ass

---

They mention Ray Charles which hot me thinking

if a blind guy turns, the zombie is still blind right?

Presumably, yes. It probably wouldn't matter much, though, since the zombies mainly seem to go off of smell and hearing, not sight.

This is so fucking boring

The Governor is a curse on this show.

I can't think of a less interesting and more dull main villain

And I've watched all of Buffy and Angel

---

And I've watched all of Buffy and Angel

you shut your mouth about buffy!!!
the angel comment can stay though because that show just didnt do villains as memorable as buffy

---

Glory and The First where such bad villains doe

"I'm evil...because... I'm evil... I do evil things... let's take over da world... to be evil."

Stellar.

Dr Robotnik is more nuanced

---

glory had more to her than that
she had a goal and her goal wasnt just evil for the sake of evil she just wanted to go home and even tried to comfort dawn in her last moments offering her pizza and telling her opening the door for her wouldnt hurt (until one of her minions corrected her and said it was a very painful process)

but yeah the first sucked
seasons 6 and 7 of buffy sucked
at least season 6 had the musical episode which was awesome
season 7 didnt have a great stand out episode like that

---

I actually liked The Trio.

Sue me

By then Buffy had seen it all and done it all so having villains who were no match for Buffy and totally out of their depth was great. Especially when shit gets real and they turn a girl into a rapeslave and then kill her in an attempt to make a juvenile fantasy real without thinking about it.

Despite their "nerdy" exaggerations, they're like the most believable human villains in Buffy or Angel

---

Hershel's fucked ain't he?

Oh well, he lasted longer than I thought he would

---

R.I.P Hershel

You survived waaaaaaaaaaaay longer than I expected

---

Why the fuck didn't anime girl stab Guv in the head?

What the fuck?

Jesus...

---

Carl's hit his moody teeage puberty years

I kinda like it, at least he's doing stuff

"Shane taught me, remember him!?"

---

yusiko posted...

yes thats who he raped
and when she escaped she killed his zombie daughter he was having incestious zombie sex with,
of course when zombie michonne escaped she cut off a couple of his limbs, shoved a spoon up his rear end, and then used that spoon to scoop out his eye

they didnt let any of those comic events make it into the show

I think she actually castrated him with the spoon.

Or maybe not with the spoon. I'm pretty sure she castrated him though.

---

So Carl lead the zombies away.... then shot them anyway...

wat...

---

*Carl shoulders a door and falls on his ass*

LOL

You suck so much Carl

---

*Piles of dirty bowls all over the place in a survivor's mess*

*Cupboard full of cans of food*

Wat....


---

*pile of Golfclubs right there*

*Carl uses his foot and a lamp*

Oh my God you suck so so much Carl

---

Carl be like "U in a coma again Rick?"

---

i personally like the second half of season 4 because everyone is split up with people they dont normally interact with so it was interesting seeing how daryl and beth play off each other or how maggie and bob are together

also in the comics lori made it all the way to the governors invasion of the prison so this is where lori was supposed to die
in the comic she gets shot running away
she was holding baby judith at the time
so yes the baby turns out to be one of the characters that didnt die in the show but died in the comic
and no matter how the baby died it wasnt pleasant
she was either blown to bits when her mother was shot, or was crushed under her mothers body weight, or was devoured by her mother when she turned into a walker

the show doesnt have the balls to do that to a baby though

---

yusiko posted...

the show doesnt have the balls

Yeah that's been the consistent thing holding this show back

It's too cowardly to show boobs or fucked up happenings.

Like Grimey and Carl? >_>

---

What's your obsession with boobs on basic cable?

---

I don't especially want boobs.

It's just that it's a show supposedly about a zombie outbreak and gritty and dark with people losing their last shreds of humanity to stay alive

Yet at the same time it's so toothless and clean and cowardly.

Nothing fucked up happens, there's no nudity, there's no rape, everyone is beautiful. It holds the show back

You know 100% that Judith is fine because you know the show would never show a baby getting ripped apart.

You know 100% that Merle and Guv weren't going to do shit to Maggie because you know the show wouldn't be allowed to air it.

It's just so safe and bland.

---

carol also would have died in the prison
she would have offered to have sex with both lori and rick and would have been turned down and that rejection drove her crazy so she fed herself to a walker

the show chose to turn carol into a badass instead of a crazy person so she also avoided her comic death

The comics have the balls, and the story suffers. The show does play it much safer, but its main problem is all the padding and like...tertiary characters getting full arcs nobody cares about.

Fwiw the show was originally pitched to HBO but I think they turned it down

---

On series 4, episode 10

Daryl is babysitting Blond farmer lady (Beth?)

She gon die ain't she?


---

Lol

Beth gets Daryl.

Tyreese gets the baby and the two really annoying kids

That ain't fair

---

Lol Tyreese couldn't wait 17 seconds before dumping the kids like a bad habbit

Don't blame him

---

And the Lizzie killed the baby

She's the worst

---

Carol be like: "You ain't getting away from these kids that easy!"

---

"I defo didn't burn your girlfriend alive or anything."

---

Gunshots not attracting Zombies again

---

Lol Glenn the human pin cushion was abandoned at the prison alone with 500 zombies

That's hilarious

---

That was Glenn's plan!?

Just barrell head first into 57 Zombies?

And it worked?

WTF?

---

And now the zombies have seen/smelled them... Setting fire to a car makes them wander off...

wat

---

Random dude with a killer mustache and a hot daughter to the rescu.... well not really rescue, they just kinda turned up...

---

Damn that cereal would be stale as fuck
