That wasn't even the worst part.

The van was on the verge of falling. So of course the laws of stupidity say get into the van, crawl around, and sit in the front seat. Be less weary about the van death trap than the slow moving zombies. Then magically the non-running zombies teleport 1/4 a mile in 10 seconds and surround the van. Instead of stabbing a few zombies and running away like they have done many other times on the show, they let the zombies push the fucking van off the bridge cause that's apparently less risky. Daryl actually buckled his fucking seatbelt for safety.

The van actually falling off the bridge was a whole separate issue. The van falls upside down, and mysteriously lands right side up. Carol somehow has a minor shoulder injury and Daryl is fine.

That was quite possibly the most poorly edited, poorly directed, and poorly written 5 minutes in the history of television.

i realized i prefer the slow boring moody duo episodes over everything else this show does. two people working together sort of mechanically and just muttering under their breath in a city or a town works a million times better visually than the stupid wilderness..

that episode had better music too

I liked the pacing and the "Caryl" of the episode considering you knew the outcome was Daryl survived and Carol went to hospital it didn't require any genius to work out who Daryl called out to "come out" of the bushes after the Church bit a couple of weeks back.

The van bit was physics retardation, I did enjoy Carol's line about making good time down though.

So there's like 2 episodes left til the mid season break. Overall strong season so far - Van moment aside.

They still haven't showed what Morgan was up to in the woods. Hopefully that will pick up before the break.

Usual pre mid season break setup episode - I think I'm gonna require 24 episode seasons to have 12 episode half seasons

I don't get the marks on the tree. I'm assuming Father Gabriel made those to get back and forth and Morgan is just a smart tracker or something.

the pacing of that episode was really weird. we get a drawn out conversation between Tyreese and Sasha, but we never see Carol say a single word to Beth about what's going on after she wakes up, and then after a commercial break Rick & everybody else are suddenly inside the hospital? anyway...

:tup: because I was sick of Beth. her decision to stab Dawn (IN THE SHOULDER) was so dumb that she deserved to die.

:tdown: because that entire hospital plot kind of a waste of time. between that and the other group turning around because they found out Eugene was a liar... the last 6 episodes or so were basically treading water. not that there wasn't good stuff in them, but it was basically all for nothing except Beth was replaced by that black kid.

She asked for it when she made that stupid move. I didn't like her singing anyway, good riddance.

Compared to his harrowing demise in the comics - It was a pretty cheap out.

Can we just on with the Hilltop angle now please.

The tornado beats the inference when they woke up "it was all just a dream" - kinda.

But whatever - Hilltop dude - fuck yeah, let's not dick fuck around walking around moping and get on with the good shit.

a couple episodes back they found a car wreck out in the woods and they ended up driving into the back of one of the cars (a truck with truck cover) and i think a bunch of walker heads rolled out when they broke open the cover. did one of those heads have a "w" on it?

ughhh want to knowe what's up with all these w's... also where is morgan......

"W"s are upside down m's....m for Morgan (I didn't read the comic books, just speculating)???

Ooh that last one....Rick made me very uncomfortable. And why did it take Darrell and...other guy half a day to walk a few hundred yards??
