Just watched the last episode.

I'm one of those people that can enjoy most things, no matter how slow paced. I did think this episode was quite slow. Doesn't bother me much, but I can certainly see the contrast from last episode's awesomeness.

I'm a little furstrated with their apparent lack of concern of running into that herd again (ex., walking around at night with flashlights, staying at the house with lights on at night, boning in the wide open pharmacy, walking around with just one crossbow bolt).

Anyone else pick up that the Vet’s daughter clammed up when Glenn was talking about how easy they must have had it out in the sticks. I’m thinking there’s something in that barn besides horses.

How come the cowgirl didn’t just lasso the well Z? Why dangle your scavenger down the well?

I'm pretty sure the farm has barbed wire fencing all around it to keep out the dead, can't speak to the rest of your points though.

Chickens, maybe?

Because then they wouldn't have spent half the ep on a stupid plan with a stupid outcome. Silliest bit of the series so far.

We've seen the Zs open doors and move around obstacles so I don't really think that would work if a z actually saw prey on the other side of the fence. Barring that a roamer would likely just bounce off the wire and move along. I think they're just relying on the farm being out of the way and not attracting much Zattention.

I wouldn't want to try and get through a barbwire fence. If I was a flesh eating zombie who didn't feel pain and didn't care about injury . . . a barbwire fence would be an annoyance to endure before I got to the all you can eat buffet.

Chicken in the barn? Maybe they are Terry Goodkind chickens?

it's not like it would improve his writing...

sorry, sorry, couldn't resist

Spoiler

I knew it! And, poor Daryl; the only one to find non-domesticated walkers. Of course they show up after he's been run through with a crossbow bolt and fell down a ravine . . . twice!

[Beezulbubba]

Spoiler

BARN FULL OF W-A-L-K-E-R-S ! ! ! ! ! ! nooooo-oooooo!

[JLV]

Wow, nice call.

Edit: Also, just as I (and a lot of his companions) was starting to like Daryl, this happens. He better not revert.

Yeah, he went savage pretty quickly. I was wondering what the whole eating the squirrel raw deal was. He was gone less than one day, was a squirrel sashimi lunch really necessary?

^^^ In his feverish wavering in and out of consciousness, Daryl's brother Merle (the chupacabra) appears to him. Merle kicks (not literally) Daryl in the balls and tells him to stop being a pussy. This saves Daryl and gives him the drive to fight off zombies and crawl up out of the creek bed and shamble back to the farm. I think Merle will be a guiding force for Daryl going forward.... which will only benefit the rest of the party as long as they have mutual goals.

Spoiler

Also, the flashback at the beginning of Atlanta getting napalmed was quite a start to the episode.

Which may last about 30 seconds or so.

Just watched last night's episode. It was fun, and half the characters seem to be going crazy.

Seems next episode is the final before a hiatus. Hopefully it will be good.

[Beezulbubba]

Mid-season finale was pretty sweet! They finally found Sophia....yaaaaaaaaaa! [img]http://forum.malazanempire.com/public/style_emoticons/default/:crybaby:.gif[/img]

[JLV]

I love this show, but goddamn it's such a Soap Opera. WHOSE BABY IS IT?

[acesn8s]

Spoiler

I'm pissed that I didn't guess what was up with Sofia when they showed us zombie wrangling. I figured it out in the few seconds after they killed all the other zombies but before she came out the barn door.

Can someone explain what the hell Dale was thinking when he went to bury the cache of shotguns? Sure, Shane is an asshole, but you've got a barn full of walkers, plus god knows how many wandering around the woods (hello! zombie herd from the season opening). I did like how Glenn admitted that he stopped thinking the zombies were dangerous for a while. Kinda addresses my complaints with this season so far.

[JLV]

He was thinking: Let me be a plot device!

[Abyss]

Dale has gone from mildly interesting to irritating creepy old man.
