I thought it was a damned fine episode. My boyfriend is back (Daryl, I still love ya, even though I see you gave Michonne a wet one in a clip on Talking Dead -- good thing I'm not jealous!).

Now, to get through another week, to see how crazy the next episode is. I do feel bad for wishing time away. Mostly.

My option #1 - fortify/build better barricades - they're all in there, keep them there

Option #2 - find a way to finish them off in place - napalm bombs would help

Option #363 - letting them out...what could possibly go wrong


However, I think the tractor trailer rig falling into the pit was the signal that the gates were opened and something had to be done NOW.


If I'm reading the drama right

I know we're supposed to think it was the Wolves but wasn't the horn blast coming from inside Alexandria?

Can't wait for next week!!!

...and another thing....Use Closed Captioning!!!....TWDs sound is mushy at best - no more slurred whispers for me

Works like a charm...pile your expensive sound gear to the dustbin...why strain to hear when it's in text?

Never miss a single word. It helps.

I could barely understand anything, particularly the season finale. Too much reverb.

I mean, we have Judith, Abraham, Noah, Herschel, Gabriel, Aaron ... lots of biblical names running around.

A "Joshua" could be calling his army to the new Jericho!!!

My youngest daughter has been rewatchng it looking for clues.

She had noticed lots of Wolf references that slip by in earlier episodes. My money is on Gabriel.

I've actually gone back and purchased the last episode of season 5 to remind me.

... and when more roaming walkers came around and heard them making noise or something the pit kept filling up, eventually with thousands - all those that would have been attracted to the town, landed there with no way out is what they said...but now the barricades are failing...

or something like that

You may have missed it then because they called it the second GOP Presidential Debate.

I like fiction but I just don't get the fascination with zombies. It's just gratuitous grotesquerie.
