The Walking Dead season 6

Well.
I thought the dialogue last week was lame.
I thought the Morgan show was a gap filler until the end of Glenn is confirmed, denied, or decidedly left hanging.
I thought the Glenn on the ground in front of the dumpster surrounded by thousands of walkers was a questionable scenario but not unbelievable in zombieland.
However,
this last show,
with Daryl being super dufus,
and Abraham getting spiffy, scoring rocket launcher and ammo, and Cuban cigars
then red-haired sexy man declaring his interest in girly girl
was
just
about
too
damned
much.

I did like that the new skinny, scrawny white guy bemoans his stupidity in believing the survivors would work together to resolve the walking dead issue and his disappointment they didn't. Then, what does he up and do? I'm wondering how much washing that motorcycle is going to need when Daryl finds it left behind covered in people parts in the next episode or two.
 
i seem to remember on the talking dead that they said this season was going to be non-stop action, with every episode being a pulse pounding thrill ride. NOT SO, EH WHAT?!
 
Are Abraham and Rosita in a relationship in the show? I remember they were shagging and they let Eugene watch (yeah that's a thing that really happened) but I don't know if they're "together" and as I type this I realise that I don't actually care.
 
Well, if it had been any other character but Glenn that waited out the zombie apocalypse under a dumpster, I wouldn't buy it. Still don't to a degree. I need to see something that drew the herd away from that alley. They don't just get bored and leave. And, it is a bit much to ask us to believe that those walkers reached over Glenn's head to get to the fresh dead guy's back.
 
If they hadn't been trying so hard to make a cliffhanger out of it they could have positioned Glenn in a more believable angle and the same with the body. If that guy's body had been completely covering him and if they'd been parallel with the bin then it would've been more believable that Glenn could slide under without being bitten, or even without being noticed.

The church falling over was just funny.
 
Glenn had to stab about two zombies under the dumpster and then he was safe. Where did the other dozens of zombies go? Did they just not feel hungry?

And Enid running away from Glenn all the time instead of just saying "your wife is alive" because the writers think that's what teenage girls do or something.
 
I think the pattern is established that at least some of them will survive. The question is how will they survive and who in what is the current established group won't.

Maggie will probably survive until near the end of the series. She needs to train her baby to be the superior walker killer with superior leadership skills then find a time machine and send him back in time to kill the person who created the virus and unleashed it on the world which turned all the people into the walking dead in the first place. Of course, Eugene has to discover who the guilty party is, discern where that person will be in the past at the crucial time, and then Rick will need to devise the plan and impart it to Maggie just before he croaks.

As Glenn has survived so many near death events and he has proved so resourceful in personal survival and at helping others, he will need to die a very unexpected death. It will have to be instant too. Like it is years later and Deanne's reclamation project has been successful. Alexandria is surrounded by enclosed farm land and forest. Glenn is walking along in the peaceful forest when he comes upon newly unearthed prehistoric megladon jaws. He stops to pose inside the megladon's mouth, rows of ancient teeth hovering above him. He is telling his companions how much he'd like to watch reruns of WKRP in Cincinnati when the megladon jaws, loosened by the vibrations from the explosions in the nearby tree stump removal project, snap down on Glenn and slice him into multiple pieces. No knowing looks, no goodbyes, no lingering. Just crunch, then done.
 
What a stinking, predictable, poorly written, poorly conceived, shark jumping, true fan disappointing, two dimensional piece of fetid shit.
 
The first eight minutes or so and the post credits scene (which I had to download seperately FOR SOME REASON) were good. Shame about the stuff in between.

Deanna: Rick, you're the leader of this community now even though your actions have directly led to the end of this community!
 
What happened after the credits?

I joked with some friends today that it'd just focus on some characters we had no interest in, and yep, pretty much!

There were a couple of cool bits (Mishonne splitting a walker down the middle and the long awaited return of ponchos covered in intestines), but most of it was really blaaah.

Yet again, a brilliant setup that wasn't capitalised on whatsoever.
 
After the credits: Daryl, Sasha and Abraham are driving back. A load of bikers block the road and tell them to get out. They make them hand over their weapons and truck and say they don't belong to them now, they belong to Negan. Of course this scene was designed to appeal to people who have read the comics and know who "Negan" is.
 
Well, it was an eventful episode at least.

I remember in the last episode before the break waiting for them to get to the point where Carl was shut in the eye (it happened in the comic.) It seemed like a natural clifhanger, so it was anti-climactic when it just ended with them walking out of the house. I'll just point out that Jessie was still alive int he book (hadn't been bitten) when Rick chopped her arm off but I guess they thought that would be too far for show Rick.

It was funny how everyone in town managed to go out there and kill loads of zombies without anyone being bit.
