The thought pisses me off too because she has easily become my favorite character on the show.

And expect another black character to die now that Everybody Hates Chris is now on board.

The writers completed her character arc, so she will unequivocally be dying this season.

Yup, and when he slid his hand up her shirt. Heebiest of jeebies. Glad he bit it.


He wasn't so much horrific, but his creep factor rivals Rob Lowe's alter ego's in those DirecTV commercials.



I kinda like Super Creepy Rob Lowe. Don't you like the smell of women's hair?

Everyone here is maknig jokes how they hate Chris (aka noah) but I think he joins the group. He breaks free, runs into Darryl and Carol. Explains how the system works, that you have to look vulnerable and be "saved" to get inside. Maybe explains how it would be better for Carol to go in because they wouldn't expect it. Then Carol gets in there with Beth and runs shi, Darryl and Noah come as back up near the gate, and the 4 of them escape.


I think you are onto something there. I'll buy it.

SPOILER: Chris' dad is actually alive! Chris, Carol, Beth and Daryl are trapped, locked inside the parking lot, cornered between walkers and Dawn's legion of rape cops.

Daryl "it's been fun. Time to meet Merle in HEL...."

It's been 5 seasons and there's about only 1 character I "care" about. I can't be the only one thinking that right?

Meh, you feel this way because the walking dead games are so compact and get to the point real quick. They get great climatic moments every episode, which isn't possible to do on TV all the time. Plus i dunno if i can really call those games, your decisions really don't matter that much at all. Its more of an interactive movie that gives you false pretenses that your decisions matter.

Plus while you are playing as clementine or some other character you are making the decisions, so you feel more personally involved, which makes you care more


Meh, I still find the game a much more moving experience than the show.

Also the fact she got very emotional talking about what the show and cast means to her at recent comic con panel. That and the fact Kirkman doesn't have the balls to kill off Rick or Daryl

A quarter into the season and it's been a fun ride. 4th episode and they're already started a 2nd story arc. I wonder if DC is still part of their plans this season? I assume the trip from Atlanta to Washington would be a long one.

Don't forget about Michonne, with that sword she is basically invincible.

Doesn't it make sense that the strong would survive in this situation?
Carol should live. Rick should Live. Daryl should live. Michonne should live. Tyrese can live if he stops being a big baby.

and apparently, Beth came out of her coma or whatever as an expert shot.. how many headshots was that? Didn't she have a hard time hitting a zombie with a crossbow from 5 feet away not too long ago?

I do agree with the thinking that Carol will die soon though. Doesn't seem like there's anywhere else for her character to go.

We're in year 5 of the Walking Dead and you're wondering where the continuity, logic and rational thought is at? :lol:

It is fun to poke at obvious plot holes and continuity issues, so I'm just as guilty as you if anything. Love the show for what it is, and I always watch it first before anything else on my DVR.

Hey guys, I just got my PS4 - still waiting on NBA 2k15 in the mail - and will be looking to get some games during BF. I tried a couple of free games off my Playstation Plus trial, but they sucked hard. Spelunky is a dirty, AIDS-infected homeless man's version of Super Mario Bros. set in caves. Dust: Elysian Tail is like Iman Shumpert's jump shot...a piece of trash.

Should I look to get Walking Dead Season 1 and 2? They seemed to get great reviews.

i just started watching 'the wire' for the first time (i know i know) and noticed there's 3 guys from that show in WLD... well two now anyway i hear they are going to remaster the wire to HD and im wondering if i should wait and hold off to watch the full 5 seasons

the show is 4:3 and i hate when they crop stuff it to fit 16:9 and just cut off the top and bottom but some people are saying the show was originally filmed in 16:9 then cut to fit 4:3 witch would be a big reason to hold off for the HD remasters imo otherwise ill just watch the 4:3 on amazon prime/hbogo

Absolutely.
Get the first season to see if you like the style first, then decide on the 2nd. Just know that you'll probably enjoy the first season more. The second season was still enjoyable just a little less so.

As for PS+, I don't have a PS4 yet but I believe the game inventory is still getting built up... PS+ was great for PS3, although it seems like it's been a little while since it's had a decent game that wasn't just some PSN bull
