TV: The Walking Dead

[daft twat]

I just scrolled through this thread. Looks like I gave up on page 90 (2017). Stickman, Argo, and Biff seeing it through to the end! It was fun to see a thread heavy in participation from LV, Verb, Ruddo, Spike, Skitch, Strat, etc. RM used to be a lot of fun.

I hope the finale is great.

[Stickman]

Fuck, 2 down already.

[Stickman]

Godammit, not her.

Spoiler: show

[Stickman]

Well that took care of a walker or two.

[Stickman]

"I'm glad it was you in the end"

Damn.

[Stickman]

And there they are.

[daft twat]

Talking Dead has been pretty great but seeing the Grimes family is wild.

[psychobain]

[Stickman]

They only had Alana Masterson on stage at the end of TD but damn did she ever look sexy.

So was it a virus? Aliens? God? Some metaphor for capitalism or wight supremacy?

I guessin you missed the early seasons. It was a virus. It was thought early on that people only turn when bit but a scientist from the CDC told Rick that everyone is infected.

Yeah, I wasn’t sure that was canon or a red herring to allow for world building. I only watched until Negan beat them to death. Too disgusted to continue.

That was the best half season in a long, long time. Probably the best season in a long,, long time.. No minor points were dragged on. I wish the show always had this sense of urgency. I'm glad Rosita died and didn't pull a Glenn. Rick and Michonne's scene fell flat - it seemed like a teaser for their spin-off more than closure for their TWD arcs.

[Stickman]

It's the time lines that are confusing with Rick and Michonne. From what i saw, the Rick stuff was years behind Michonne.

Also, 5 days later and this still stings:

[Biff Pocoroba]

The Rick and Michonne series starts back but does anyone care anymore?
TWD is still one of series to record on the dvr but I don’t know if I will actually watch.

[Strat]

Are they gonna explain what happened to Rick or do we have to find that out with additional reading ?

[Stickman]

Rick was nearly killed and was taken by Jadis who was working with the CRM, the bad guys from the World Beyond series. We know nothing after that.

[Stickman]

Ok, I'm interested.
