Judging by all these posts, apparently they don't even do that.

Makes me wonder what actually goes on for the hour that this show is on.

The one episode I've seen from beginning to end was them killing zombies in an abandoned prison for a half hour and talking about nothing in a cell block for the next half hour. I'm pretty sure one of the old people in their group was dying.

Seriously WTF happened to this show? I am a huge TWD fan, and thats' exactly the formula in the last 5 episodes. Setup...let down...set up...let down. But when I post on TWD forums people act like it's a masterpiece episode. Reminds me of all the gots on Laker forums sucking off Kobe even if he shot 6-24

[timtonymanu]

Didn't catch tonight's episode because I was pretty busy.

Turns out I didn't miss anything . I'm all for slow episodes if it moves the plot along, but it sounds like another tedious episode.

Bring back Breaking Bad already!

[ThePop]

Ugh, hurry up Game of Thrones. I'm pretty sure Andrea isn't on there.

Would anybody the stupid ( ) out of Andrea? The hoe looked fabulous on talking dead tonight. My type of swag, but I'm curious..

[spursfan09]

I'm not one to complain but yeah. It was kind of a pointless episode. The past two have not been great. I'm ready for some action between the two groups. The zombies are not a threat at all anymore it seems! The ending made me laugh. Andrea so close to getting ricks attention. Then the gov capturing her. Rick just thinking he's seeing crap again ignoring it!

[Darius McCrary]

I had forgotten how creepy Todd MacFarlane is.

I just watched it. I didn't think AMC would make an ep revolving around the tiest character in the world but they did it. the last two episode could've been combined into an episode, maybe even half an episode. instead we got a setup episode setting up a setup episode which setup next week's (probably) talk-a-thon setup episode. I think I skipped half this episode because it was all so dumb.

"jeebus, I'm confused. what made this episode dumb? it was grrrrreat!" well, when drea took off running, the world's lamest and boring villain took off after her. one guy in a dodge ram looking for one girl who knows how to survive; he's not gonna find her right? wrong. the one eyed wonder somehow picks the right field to look in and sees her from a hundred yards out while she was laying on the ground. but she escapes. whew. close call; she's safe in the woods now. so she wanders around and somehow comes across a warehouse. this is obscured from everything and covered by trees and not near a road. safe, right? wrong. the governator shows up again and finds her by using his superior brain power. after 10 boring minutes of hide and seek, she escapes by letting loose a horde of zombies and he's up outta ammo with his back against the wall. he's ed right? all drea has to do is take a weapon from the dodge, slash the tires, and go to the prison. wrong. somehow our villain dispatched all the walkers, got into his untainted vehicle, and escpaed. no matter, it was dark when she left the warehouse and now it's light which means she's had hours to get away; she's got a huge headstart and could be anywhere. look! it's the prison. safe and sound. wrong. our bad guy knows exactly where she'll be and captures her. I'm fairly certain a group of re ed children wrote this episode using their feces as ink.

THIS

I might just skip the Walking Dead finale and watch the Game of Thrones premiere. Give me the white walkers over the Atlanta walkers.

[timtonymanu]

Thanks for that jeebus! Now I can just skip this ty episode. Wake me up when someone dies.

The end of this episode is reminiscent to the situation Michonne is in the comics...I wonder if they'll use that for Andrea in the TV show.

[CuckingFunt]

I liked the episode. I thought it was far from perfect, of course. When picked apart with a critical eye, it may not even qualify as good. But from a pure enjoyment point of view, it did a far better job of entertaining me for 42 minutes than some of the series' other set up episodes have managed.

I remain somewhat baffled by the criticism the show receives here and on other message boards I've perused. Never before have I read so many comments from people who've stuck through so many episodes of a show that they clearly never have and likely never will enjoy. Continuing to complain about the pace of the show, for instance, seems utterly futile at this point. After nearly three complete seasons and four showrunners, there's been absolutely nothing to indicate that anyone associated with the making of the show wants it to be anything other than long, slow, speechy moments punctuated only occasionally by action. Which makes sense, since that's exactly the pace of the comic books. And it always has been. There's still plenty of room to find fault -- the dialog, even more this season than last, has too often been little more than clunky bits of exposition; and the character development, when they've even bothered, has been... problematic, at best; and I've already mentioned before that I think many of the changes made to the prison and Woodbury storylines have been for the worst -- but clearly this isn't a show that's failing to be a thrill-a-minute action fest. It has zero interest in being that show.

Whether it's Michonne or Andrea, I still have no desire to see that on TV. (And not just for feminist/woman-y issues, as I also wouldn't really want to see Michonne's revenge on The Governor acted out.) I think we're definitely meant to think that sort of sexual torture is Gov's intention, though. I mean, it can't be an accident that one of the tools he was arranging near the dentist chair was a speculum.

This. waiting and wanting for the same old tired clips of zombie kills.

I almost forgot my favorite part. You know how we have someone walking or driving along and they stop? it's fairly obvious nothing and no one is around until.....bam! a pack of walkers show up out of thin air. in this ep, drea was hiding behind a tree, waiting until a truck goes by. with the camera angle, you see nothing is behind her. alas, a walker grabs her from behind. then like 3 of them pop up DIRECTLY in front of her, where the trees are about as thick as a 2 liter soda bottle. it was gruesomely dumb.

there's only 2 eps left so hopefully the writing is better in those.

[DarrinS]

I thought it was a great episode. End was a bit predictable though.

[leemajors]

Better second tine around when not drunk.

[Thebesteva]

I just went and saw the spoiler pictures of the season finale... why did I do that.

I hear Mandrea got caught in the end. Hopefully Phillip sticks a shotgun down her throat.
