aryl and Noah meetup with Rick's crew, they get ready and get to the hospital in next week's episode. Then they take out Dawn's crew and rescue Beth and Carol in the following episode? I guess that is the most likely scenario.


I really think that Beth and Maggie have a reunion before one of them dies

Because you no longer enjoy it? Nobody's getting extra points for "sticking with" a show or not. Either you like it or you don't. I watch shows until I no longer have the desire to.



My examples went over your head I guess. I was getting at the fact that the series I listed picked back up after the seasons mentioned.

I am hoping that the same happens for me in regards to TWD.

All shows can have a season or two that is off. Season 2 of Arrested Development is a master piece IMO, but that doesn't mean that I didn't enjoy the series as a whole. The only show I have ever thought was consistently better season after season is Breaking Bad.

well I mean I understand where you are coming from, but this season is well understood as the best since season 1

ETA: But yes, I agree one mediocre season does not make a series

You have a really hard time grasping that people can have a differing opinion than the majority and neither side is right or wrong since it is just an opinion.

No, I got your point. MY point was that I don't watch series' when they "lull." I don't understand watching a show I no longer enjoy for whatever reason. That's great that the shows you felt had lulls picked back up in your opinion, but I find it more enjoyable just to quit watching.

Meh, I either find reasons to keep watching and enjoying, or I sever ties if I no longer care for the direction of the show. Like I said, that's just me, though.

You keep doing you if that's what makes tv more enjoyable for you or not. More than one way to skin a cat

I certainly agree.

Good point about how the napalm/gas in Atlanta took out everyone unexpectedly

I remember the scene where Lori and shane see the bombing of Atlanta. Seeing the aftermath is awesome IMO. That patch of charred city with dead trees was great.

80% of the people agree it is a good season, while you do not...I am sorry I will have to agree with the majority on this one

Because even in a lull they can still have parts you enjoy and because you also want to see how it wraps up once you have an interest in the characters.

Don't get me wrong, I have quit watching many shows, but I am not at that point yet with TWD. Many of those shows I also never made it to season 5 of and had an interest in how things developed.

The majority also voted for Obama...twice. Group thinking/following isn't a way to justify anything.

I kind of agree with your opinion I have been at that point with a good bit of TV, but I do not think that TWD is anywhere near that point.

With the sneak peek they showed on Talking Dead showing Dawn telling Beth that she's pulling the plug on Carol, how pissed would everyone be if Carol doesn't make it out of the hospital? Heck, I'd be pissed if anyone gets taken out by these dumbass cop losers. After surviving the likes of both of the Governor's attacks and the cannibal's attacks, surely the writers won't have these keystone cops take out anyone in Rick's crew (especially Carol or Beth).

No one is going to die next episode. They will leave that for the mid season break cliff hanger which is the next episode.

ETA: Actually, I wouldn't be shocked to see them build up the war with the hospital for two episodes than leave it as the mid season cliff hanger.

A gunshot in the ZA is pretty much a death sentence.


Unless your name is Rick or you're one of the main characters of the show.

Rick has been shot how many times? Twice? The coma at the beginning of the show, then he was at least grazed when the Governor attacked the prison. And Carl recovered pretty quickly after they arrived at the farm.

Not really, he was out for like half the season, and I think they had to resuscitate him once or twice.

I'm not sure how the rest of the season is going to go down, I figured an assault on the hospital inevitable but not sure how it's going to go down and who will make it out alive.

Whats great imo about this season is the swift resolution of most questions.

When that group formed after terminus, It thought to myself, well the only thing that could get mess it up is for them to split up.

The reasons they have not got of GA are simple. They had no where to go really and they have had to rescue most of the people in the group at different times.

A half step in front of death leaves no time for a plan. Eugene's shite would have not been revealed until way later in this season if this were season 1-3.
I think Abraham is fixing to put a gun in his mouth and pull the trigger. Eugene is as good as dead and that leaves those few left to join back with Rick.

For me this show has never been about zombies or the what would I do in that situation theme. It has been about the decisions and actions people will take when there are no rules and no law.
When one of the safest places you could be is as far away as you can get from anyone you dont know. At this point there is no light at the end of the tunnel. Just more zombies or even worse a person you dont know.
