The only thing you missed by falling asleep was.....
That abandoned burnt out church near the wall falling down on said wall, thus allowing the walkers to walk right on in (that isn't shown but you pretty much know that is happening next week). Anyhow even as you were falling asleep you probably noticed they kept showing the burnt building so you knew that was a foregone conclusion! (WD writers love to spoon feed viewers). Other than that a ton of "that's how it is now" and "you really don't want to abandon people you care about" preachy talks from characters which usually amount to about 10 scenes per episode and probably caused you to fall asleep! It's like the writers know no other way besides "the talk" to convey lines.

I thought it was much better then the previous 2 episodes. I kind of like that little girl who gave Glenn water. At least she isn't one of the two normal types of characters that only believes in kill everything or save everything. The stupid kid who stole the bullets needs to die brutally.
Thanks for that Lixx, I had to go back and bore myself but i have to agree with Waterbear and say it was better than the last few episodes.
And I am actually looking forward to see how amc writers handle the Ron situation...

Re: The Walking Dead television series!!!!
Someone should combine all the clips from every season where they give that same speech/ lecture to another member about how they have to pull it together for the better of the group (usually when someone's pouting) and sell it as a sleep aid! You know where they get the serious face going and really start enunciating their words.
I guess we're too far into the zombie apocalypse to see people really lose their shit, or just have an oh shit moment but those are priceless. WD writers- tension, tension, tension, you need tension. None of this meaningful look crap.

Re: The Walking Dead television series!!!!
You would think with it being the most popular show of all time they would actually just make full seasons and stop with the mid-season finale nonsense already. Is that just AMC still being notoriously cheap or what?
We still hear pretty often about stories they want to tell but can't because of the budget and how they generally have a non-double digit limit on zombie kills per episode just to save money. I don't get it.

Re: The Walking Dead television series!!!!
Yeah just in time for me. Apparently the browser war/ what OS X you use is alive an well. iTunes (I still use 10.7) won't even let me access shows I've purchased suddenly. Just get a big white screen and error 9806. So I called Apple knowing full well the only thing they would say was you need to upgrade iTunes/ OS X and demanded my money back for WD 6 and Fargo 2. They tried to be slimy and offer a store credit to which I replied- I'm not upgrading and you wont let me view content on my itunes so what's the point? I'll never be able to use it. Full refunds for both shows forthcoming apparently.
I did manage to watch it on my ipad before I made the call. Absolutely boring as fuck. Glad iTunes made the decision for me never to watch it again.
Guess I might have to upgrade eventually because now I can't access paypal, my bank, or any apple site on Safari 5.1.10 now. So ridiculous that they force people to upgrade to their crappy new products. I'll ride the ship till it sinks. I think me and Scary Andy are the only two people I know that use it still.
I have to agree that it has been the best episode of the season and one of the better ones in a long time! Just hoping they keep this pace until the finale!
anyone else happy that little shit-whiney kid finally got ripped apart by walkers?

That was awesome but the chain of events it set off made my night.
So glad Carl finally got what's been coming to him (they'd been foreshadowing it long enough...)
Hope they keep up the pace as well but we'll likely get a snoozer or 2 in the next 7 (seems par for the course). That's okay though...
was expecting the Wolves storyline to drag on a fews episodes longer. Glad it got nipped in the bud sooner than expected

Re: The Walking Dead television series!!!!
Apparently even though I cancelled my season pass and got refunded by Apple since upgrading to El Capitan I still get emails reminding me another episode is ready to download?! Bizarre I paid was refunded and I suspect I'm getting the episodes still because there it was? Can't get rid of this show for some reason. Agree with the Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz though^^ It's almost like watching a horrific super hero Marvel movie these days, and I hate those with a passion! Everyone's got super powers on WD as well!
No...that's not all I got. Eat a three inch dick footlong you prick.

Somewhere in the distance I heard the A-Team theme song playing as everyone was hacking away zombies while Daryl was on top of a Gas truck with a rocket launcher.....
