[Yamer]

Two pretty decent episodes in a row. Encouraging.

Yeah, I know, right? I have perfect judgement when I'm tanked too.

Madison is suddenly less 2 dimensional after that scene.

-The girls want to shower, get them to shower together and increase the audience. The latin girl is hot. On an actual note, wouldn't they stay in the same room?

I think it showed the contrast between reality and the naivety of hope and survival.

-Nick, seriously? throw the bar in the cart if you want it that bad.

He tried, she wouldn't let him. And I think this was Nick's way of a powerplay after the guy changed the parameters of the 'deal' (aka 1 cart), and he saw an opportunity with the sister's addiction.

-The stupid chick with Nick, why translate all that BS for him? Jeopardizing your whole camp. Just tell them to kill him (she said no one will care if he's gone) and their own business arrangement stays the same.

What the TWD universe does well (less so, so far with FTWD) is show how things aren't black and white. You could tell from the moment she spotted Nick in the herd through the binoculars, she was torn internally about him. I think she recognised pretty quickly what Nick was up to and the risk associated with it (hence her frustration with him afterwards).

-The new Doctor character might be the only worth paying attention to.

Not the only one, but I agree this development has promise. It shows again how lost Nick really is on the inside.

Well this is being dragged out.

I will most likely hang on till the end of this season, but it better pick up.

It sure is handy how the zombies just kinda wait around in this one until everyone is ready, then they follow dutifully with the plan.

They have these new characters, they could have had a zombie take one of them out and we wouldn't have lost anything, but still got a death and indicate the threat. Instead they just kinda bobble around until needed.

They also doubled down on Nick's super power being "ex-junkie". Sure is coming in handy! Ugh, that whole bit seamed totally unnecessary.

[Machiavelli]

Here for Strand at this point. He's a good character, and the actor has chemistry with everyone, even lame-o Madison

I like the pharmacist too, and don't mind Nick anymore. Other than that I'm not sure who I'm supposed to care about

[Inferno]

I want Chris to become zombie food. God that kid is a dumbass.

[Da_Chief]

They need to start killing some characters. All is too good in their land right now.

[Fuzz]

Let's start with Chris and finish with all of them.

[ken0042]

Actually starting to not mind Chris. He has come to the realization that although these new guys may not be nice, they need safety in numbers.

I do hope that with these new characters we see some of the old ones die off. Hopefully that was foreshadowing when Maddison told her daughter that she'd never leave her. I was hoping for a better escape story- that the hotel guests had saved Madison and Strand, and now the daughter has allied with the hotel manager; that would be how the groups get together.

I don't see why you let the zombies out of their rooms. If the hotel does get attacked by other people, you have them as weapons. Especially if you have a less obvious way of identifying their rooms.

The other thing that bugged me- from watching COPs I know that each pill always has an identifying code on it. If they are cutting the oxy and re-pilling them, they won't have that code.

[Fuzz]

Episode was pretty good. They have recovered well, not sure if they got some better writers. Wonder if cult leader guy is sucoming to his bite,just much slower than usual.

[undercoverbrother]

Madison you idiot.

[Fuzz]

Convenient that they all went their separate ways, yet all end up within 5 miles of each other...

[Machiavelli]

Ugh, Madison is the worst

I've given up on this show. Wiped the recordings when I was about six or seven episodes behind this season.

[habernac]

Oh, Alejandro is totally turning. He treated himself with something that worked for awhile, be he's clearly toast now.

[Fuzz]

Here I thought Chris was the lamest character on FTWD. Turns out it is Travis. Ugh, this family drama stuff is getting tiresome. Not even one zombie(other than background). How am I supposed to Fear them if I'm bored to death?

[Inferno]

Ugh, I was hoping Chris would become zombie food tonight. There's still hope for the season finale but he'll probably survive that too.

[Da_Chief]

What a joke of an episode.

Enough family drama bull$hit.
They could've left James lying there with the sissy looking after him.
Then Chris and his pansy ass.
Then Madison going on about the father committing suicide. Holy who cares? Absolutely nothing to do with the ZOMBIE APOCALYPSE.

Giving it the season finale, if it doesnt get better, im out.

There is no way Chris is going out They have built way to much of a character arc for him to go out like chump. I mean, it would be awesome, but the writers seam to think they are to clever for that.
