Bob was responsible for Zach's death. Tyrese was responsible for Bob's death. Noah was responsible for Tyrese's death. It seems to be pass the buck here.

I still don't get why people keep saying this...one of the pictures Tyrese saw was Noah (as he looks now) sitting next to both twin brothers.

NOAH WAS NOT ONE OF THE frickING TWINS.



Some people are just incapable of paying attention to a show and knowing what is happening.

This same phenomenon is rampant in GoT Hodor threads, which I will read but of course never post in.

I think the age of mobile devices has made this worse. My wife and daughter text, facebook, twitter, and surf while "watching" TV with me. They swear that they are watching but always ask what is going on.

Part of the problem is that everything in this show is usually really dark (in terms of lighting). I can barely make out that picture Cocomo posted (although I had to look on my phone to see it) and it's the same on TV.

I don't know if that's exactly fair, since Bob was bitten anyway and already dead. Tyrese just basically kept him from reanimating.

But I see what you're going for though.

To be fair, there is a LOT more going on (and that you have to keep straight) in GoT than TWD. It's not even close.

I definitely am guilty of this sometimes. The main thing I do is look shite up though. like on GoT, I'll be like "Who is that dude?" and have to google the character for clarification. The other thing is actors...I'll see someone on a show or movie I'm watching and can't place their face, so I'll have to look it up and see what I know them from. Though usually when I do that kinda stuff, I pause it so I don't miss anything.

For those who want a peek at the future & not have to worry about any Spoiler Alert, the Feb. edition of ENTERTAINMENT has a lengthy article on the show & where it might be heading. All in a general sense. One amusing highlight : one of the main characters has a thing for licking a person's face, real world. And an intern on the show pays a price for having hers licked. Pic included.

i didn't wade through all 32 pages of this, but I thought it was a great episode. To the people that hated it so much seem be overlooking one of the bigger points/plots. The group is NO longer in Georgia. They're on the road, made it through South Carolina and are 100 miles from DC. And they didn't waste episode time to show the journey.

and people in this thread were complaining that the plot hadn't moved foreward...these are the people that I know are trolling or like stated above are really paying attention to the show

One of the first lines of the episode was Carol saying something like "We've made it 500 miles so far.." or something like that. That one line was all that was needed to show that they had advanced that far...the lackluster episode that followed that line had nothing to do with that plot really, aside from them realizing that Noah's "camp" wasn't gonna be a good place to settle (which we should've sort of assumed anyway).

A bad episode can still advance some plotlines.

Definitely add Gabriel, and maybe put some red slashes or Xs through the deceased.

So with the group now in Virginia, is it safe to assume Gabriel's trail has gone freezing cold?

It almost seems like the show has gotten into a bit of a rut in which the main developments are just that the main group (I guess you could call them the protagonists) keeps running into worse and worse "antagonist" groups of humans.

First you had the group guarding the old folks home who, while they tried to come across as tough were really just a bunch of softies. Then you had the group that included the boy they captured while at Hershell's farm. They seemed bad but you never saw too much of them and Rick shot the ones who did threaten in that bar. Then Woodbury which had semblance of civilization but a batshit crazy leader. Then you had the biker/rapist group who were definitely bad even though they did seem to try to instill some kind of code (whoever calls dibs I think it was). Then cannibals. And now they seem to be hinting at a group that likes to cut the arms and legs off of people, put a W on their head and burn the up from time to time.

I mean, I understand that there would be bad people doing bad things in the ZA. But they've taken it to such an extent that it is actually starting to get kind of boring.

Hopefully since they're on the move maybe they'll meet some different situations. Maybe some half functional people or groups. Or some different kinds of challenges to overcome.

producers/actors have said that this season will be shifting "modes" at some point in the season.

Gabriel will never make it IMO. Plus, even when on The Wire I always thought of him as looking more Hispanic than black.

Sorry to chime in so late on this... but THIS is definitely what was happening.

When he was growing up - His father made him listen to news stories...and take a look to see what was going on around him and make his own determinations.

So FFWD to his present... Basically he was taking "What [he'd witnessed] happening" and his brain is interpreting "What's going on" via the radio broadcasts.
