The Walking Dead - Season 5

I think they are going to switch between past and present in the next few episodes... I thought it was an excellent premiere.

And honestly who cares about spoiler tags? What do people expect in the season 5 The Walking Dead thread?

Side note, anyone notice the blonde kid that was killed in the room with Daryl, Glenn, and Rick? Same guy that Rick and Carol ran into before Rick cut Carol loose.

Anyone else notice that the walker Carol killed on the railroad tracks at the beginning was Andrea?

Or at least was dressed exactly the same, had handcuffs on like she did, and had half her face blown off in a matter consistent with a gunshot to the head?

She wasn't dressed exactly the same. The stripe patterns are different. And the walker was wearing boots.

It wouldn't surprise me if it meant something later down the road or if it was just the crew ****ing with us.

did not notice that, was wondering why he was looking at Rick like that.

Good catch. He was. I believe his gf was eaten in that episode.

Started on Sunday... surprised no thread yet! Always great to have it back. Talking Dead afterwards was great too.

Looks like Morgan is back which is interesting...he's following circles with X's in them... not sure why. A little surprised Terminus appears to be done so quickly. I was expecting this season to be about them being stuck there.

Would have been a rather boring season IMO with that being the case. Better to have them roam and introduce plot twists that way.

I thought about the boots thing too, so I went and watched Andrea's death scene again. You never see her feet. Her boots might have been put back on.

More than likely it isn't her, but it's fun to speculate.

The stripes are drastically different on her shirt. That's about all I got.

did you notice that or did you pick that up from the Talking Dead? I didn't notice it.

i was wondering with the handcuffs who that was.... thought that must be significant. But if GIK says it's not her, then.... well it must be. :shifty:

I noticed it then it was posted on reddit... I think it was mentioned on The Talking Dead but I missed the first 15 minutes of that show.

Really good first episode. Had my heart beating with the disturbing throat slashing / draining scene, where they are all apathetic to it all. ****s going down.

OT: You can show someone getting struck in the head with a bat, then throat-slashed, then bled out on TV...

...but you can't show a boob.

Was a pretty good episode though.

More action is in this episode which forcasts a good season.Last seasons was a little too much character examination for my taste.Even Rick was wishy washy .Now he is back to his bad ass self.Likey.

That wasn't Andrea. She capped herself with Rick's .44.

But for anyone who has read the comics, the dude in the flashback at the end looks VERY SIMILAR to a notorious bad guy,

Negan

although Robert Kirkman is already trying to shoot down that rumor.

Worked well for Martinez...

I like how Rick is all "sure, let's go to Washington and cure this disease!" Apparently, he's already forgotten that the CDC and all foreign government versions couldn't do it... Other than that, this season is shaping up better than the last one. I like them on the move. Makes it more interesting.

This season is straight from the Comics. If you've read the Trade Paperback "Fear the Hunters" you know exactly what's going on so far this season. Hard to comment without spoilers.

I will say this one thing. . . "Tainted Meat!"

Yeah, I wasn't expecting Rick to say yes to that... I was 75% sure he'd say no. As for the end of the episode with Bob... I have a question and then a top 10...

what was he crying about before he got hit over the head? Oh and that brings to mind the old WTF are they doing (horror movie stupidity).... love how him and the other two are out running around in the dark alone...

anyway... top 10 Bob's on the menu:

10. Hot Bob on a Stick
9. Bananas Bobster
8. Bobba Stump
7. Baskin and Bobbins... Quarterbob Crunch Ice Cream
6. Bob Evans Tuesday night special, our meat is humanely... prepared
5. Bob-a-que Brisket
4. Poor Bob Sandwiches
3. Bobscht
2. Bobby Filet
1. Shish Kabob

The idea of the group switching the Farm for the Prison for some church in the woods? For the show's sake they'd have to move on to DC.
