    Best episode of the season, but.....

    Do we really need to go with the plot line of groups finding shelter with water and food and then getting chased away by walkers invading the house?

    I feel like the last two episodes will do what the last couple seasons have....Piss you off until the next.

    I've been pretty critical of the show as of late but I felt I need to comment on last week's episode since it seems only fair to praise the show when it gets it right.

    By and large I'm a huge fan of the horror genre, sadly most so called 'horror' movies are nothing but gore. So my opinion of them is very low and I hate to even refer to them as such. Gallons of blood and body count does not equal horror. This was one of the reasons I originally liked Walking Dead. It had real elements of horror, scenes where they just left you in awe. I don't mean the well zombie or those classic scenes. Making someone retch is not horror. Sadly the show has leaned too heavily on that lately.

    But last week was everything horror should be. When Carol and Tyreese find Mika dead, we didn't need to see the stabbings or the standard fair of 'horror' of screams and gore. And then Carol's actions. Any time a story can lead you in and get you feeling unease, that is what horror is. This week I think Walking Dead did a great job of using zombies to bring about horror and it wasn't zombies being splattered. The corruption of a kid by their environment, and price that was paid for not being able to understand or cope with the reality they face.

    Will the show keep to this or are we stuck with one great episode a season with the rest zombie killing and pointless soap opera drama? Obviously every episode can't hit a home run, but if they stop with the bait and switches (Maggie after clearing the boss of zombies), and running circles with the story, and follow a direct story there might be hope for the show.

    Two episodes left, and I'm slightly optimistic they will be worth watching, and not for the sake or rolling my eyes and ridicule.

    Seems like we are headed towards a fight between Rick and Joe's group. Will Darryl make it out alive, since he's now kinda part of their group?

    Is this Dr. Eugene guy really a doctor and not some whack job? Talking about video games and stuff, he seems like he's a little "out there".

    I'm sure Darrly would side with Rick. Should be interesting to see what happens. Pretty decent episode to set up the finale. I have a feeling that Terminus won't be what it seems...I've never read the comics so I have no clue what to expect.

    The picture thing seems foreshadowing for magpies death but hopefully they kill off Glenn instead.

    unlikely. i think we have rick until the very biter end. but i am curious about next week's teaser. hand shaking, bloody, eyes shot. looks like he was locked up somewhere?

    so... terminus? you can just open the gate and let yourself in? that doesn't seem too secure.

    terminus does not make an appearance in the comics, however many people are speculating that it will be full of cannibals, similar to a small camp that the group came across in the comics.

    The woman who greeted them who was cooking on the grill was named Mary.

    I think they meant that "steak" Mary was cooking on the grill might be Beth, Hannibal Lecter style.

    this.

    the cannibal plot isn't too big of a strech especially since they touch up on it in the comics. the people running that community very well can be luring people to terminus. hopefully next week we will have some answers before the long wait until october.

    i feel like these season finalies could and should be two hours. 1) because there is enough content 2) offset all these damn commercials!

    perhaps why rick is shaking and such ...discovers what terminus is all about?

    weird the gates were opened i agree, with nobody but just one lady. look outs im sure... good build up for next week.

    Setting up a good finale. It sucks we probably won't get to know everything about Terminus this season. I think someone is going to die. My guess is that it's not one of the mains on the show.
