    Frankly I am amazed how fast time passed in the first two episodes. I didn't like the relationship direction of the story. Rick should have lost his mind after the shooting incident yet he seems to have completely mellowed out.

    The episode has been aired. You didn't have to spoiler that.

    Also, she's now on the death list. You don't hook up with the main character and live.

    Now, maaaaybe if the episode had started with a disclaimer showing how much time had elapsed ('Three Months Later' with additional clues Rick & Michonne were friendly (aside from being roomates), it would have been OK. However, it just felt really disjointed. You could tell the writers had the plot set-up up through the mid-season break (Rick/Jessie and her death) and then came back with this new love story and no proper timing of how to include it.

    I had the same thought. Her days are now numbered.

    Also, I spoiler these to be safe. I usually DVR TWD and may not watch until 1-2 days later, so I do it in case someone else is in the same boat. Though, I assume they would not look at this thread until afterwards like I do.

    I watched part of Talking Dead - something I never do as I find it incredibly lame - and Michonne was on there and said it was 2 months after the previous episode. Personally, I didn't find it disjointed and it seemed obvious to me that some time had passed.

    For me, I was just aggravated at how bumbling Rick and Darryl were. I can understand not killing Jesus at the gas station. But after he stole the truck, he should have been done. Then, to have him climb on top of the truck and fight them and he still isn't killed? Bullshit. Finally, he's not watched well enough and he can escape and get into Rick's bedroom. What kind of idiots are you two?

    I get that it's a "softer" Rick but that is over the top.

    Maybe 'disjointed' wasn't the right word as most of the rest of the show was fine. The newfound love story just felt sped up and that the writers didn't do a good job setting it up. Maybe that's the best way to describe it.

    You're right on Rick & Darryl. That whole angle with Jesus was like a bad Benny Hill skit.

    Also not a fan of Talking Dead. Between the host and most of the guests (minus cast), I think it's a waste of time.

    Gotcha on the suddenness of the relationship and I can agree with that. The funny thing is, Michonne also said that even though she didn't know that was coming she said she felt that the writers had been slowly building toward it for a long time.

    Also, much like Daniel Tosh, that Talking Dead host is too um, effeminate, for me. The Show is just a limp-dicked circle jerk. Most of what they do is read dumb tweets (if I wanted to know what was on Twitter, I'd join) show you who died on the episode you just watched, field lame questions from the audience and give away terrible prizes. Why the hell would anyone want to watch that?

    Steeler and CDJ you are right about Rick and Daryl, too lack. Who in the right mind would have left their car behind to drive away in a truck that hadnt been run in years and have no idea if it's reliable. They are making the show stupid to accomplish their plots

    Not a bad episode tonight. I like the potential of the group being proactive instead of sitting back in their comfy little fortress waiting to be overrun.

    I have a feeling that next week is going to be a disaster as they continue to build up Negan.

    Funny thing is He doesn't need it. You'll know it when he does show up.

    Carol is a chameleon. She adjusts on the fly to whatever situation she's in.

    So I have to ask.... Is that it? All the build up to Negan... and that's it?

    Spoiler: show
    I thought this storyline would go on for the rest of the season. Just like the situation with the Wolves. Why are things so short-lived this season?

    Daryl is a dead man. Not from the shot. From the bossman.

    I doubt he's dead.

    If he is, I'm good with it though. It would eliminate an obvious comic book character (the obvious silliness of the comic-book style has been an underlying annoyance to me in this series).

    I mean seriously, nevermind the mullets and flaming-red flat tops - both of which scream comic book queerness. No, I'm talking about the crossbow guy, the bow staff guy, the samurai sword gal... Come the fuck on. They're one short of the Ninja Turtles, practically!

    Anyway, I get irritated when I'm reminded that this show (which is enjoyable if you can overlook some things) was written by a comic book dork who followed the time-tested comic book rule that characters must be so unique that they couldn't possibly all exist in the same space.

    Anyway, that's my rant. Carry on.
