But it’s so cool!
:rolleyes:
As bad as Negan is, he got shit done. Rick and Co. keep stumping their collective toes and achieving nothing. The food is scarce, ammo is scarce ( or should be ), peeps are dying in hoards. Are we gonna see them back on the road walking next season? It seems they have now ruined 7 or 8 good safe places and nothing is getting better.
Don’t forget the crying and the angst. You have to make room for all the crying and angst.
Heck, crying and angst would make it interesting. All we get is angst. “Is it wrong to kill walkers? I’m so conflicted?”
“Remember that way I used to feel about this issue after our two hour talk a year ago? I spontaneously feel 180 degrees the opposite now. Let me go do something dumb to show it.”
Can zombies climb the stairs? They clearly can’t walk down them. But they are not much of a threat if they can’t go up them.
They can fall down them, and I imagine they can crawl up.
Their abilities change as the need arises, which really pisses me off. Water zombies shouldn’t be able to swim, in my opinion, sometimes they get to you in water sometimes not. On occasion they get around obstacles, other times not so much. It’s to keep us viewers on our toes, I guess.
They used to be able to run in the early seasons, and Morgan’s dead wife knew how to work a doorknob in episode 1 or 2 of the series.
Not only that, but she seemed to recognize her own house.
I suspect they were thinking of going somewhere with that, but thought twice about it when they realized how hard it would be to manage plots where walkers still have their humanity buried somewhere inside them. It would have changed the entire moral complexion of the show.
Those first season walkers were very dangerous. One used a rock to smash a glass window. Also seems like they were climbing that chain link fence when Rick and Glen pulled their first gut camouflage maneuver.
Morgan’s Wife tried to turn the door knob.
Maybe that’s why Hershel thought they could be saved and kept them in the barn?
His Wife was in the barn, was she not?
Yes, it’s true she was. But he thought they could save some medically. Rickinator killed those walkers anyway.
It took them a while to figure out the “rules”. Some of those early anomalies get a pass I think.
So how did that zombie get in the pen? Ugh the writing for this one was especially bad.
Wasn’t there an episode in season 1 or 2 where Daryl shot a dear that also got bit by a zombie and they debated weather or not it was still safe to eat?
Even the locks are really necessary; zombies don’t have the motor skills to work simple latches or untie a bungee cord. Have we ever even seen one to something as simple as opening a door?
Yes, there’s going to be a multi-year time-jump and it’ll be set in Texas. Jenna Elfman has been cast for season 4. I know her character isn’t going to be like Dharma, but it’s still an interesting choice.
Fear the Walking Dead would’ve been the perfect place to show something like this, but they missed their opportunity (they missed a lot of opportunities).
They at least have to be internally consistent.
Don’t forget about the little girl zombie in the pilot who was still carrying her teddy bear. Early one the show based their zombies pretty closely on the ones from Romero’s Living Dead series. At least in the original trilogy Romero didn’t really have zombies retain their humanity buried deep inside; he just have them retain enough memory to walk, be drawn to places they went in life (like shopping malls), and occasionally engage in crude tool use (like using a garden trowel on a victim).
