anyone noticed that the longer the show goes the less it is about the walkers. Could be wrong but the only time I remember them was when Nagan and Eugene were looking at them in the yard then the only one I remember one dying was the one with his guts falling out.

Been that way for the majority of the series. The ZA is just the setting. The story is about the survivors.

Yes, the reality is that the walkers will eventually waste away if some of humanity can hold together until that time.

I guess there will always be new walkers because people will always die, but the population is so thinned out that the likelihood of herds will be dramatically reduced.

That's pretty much the point of the comic. The ZA is it's worst the first 2-3 years then becomes more about humans suriving against other human communities. Walkers end up king of being more a nuisance than a threat.

The Walkers are basically now decorations that hardly is a threat to humans that know how to survive. Humans are the real monsters in this show which is also the main point of the comics.

This episode has been ridiculous. Did we really need a Rick fake out death? Also when Michonne was out of it and Rick threw the katana perfectly into her hands was just corny. I hardly ever complain about The Walking Dead but this episode was just unnecessary.

I agree, these fake out deaths are annoying and meaningless. There is not a single person who genuinely thought rick died.

This was as much of a filler episode as there could be.

I think this has been the problem with the show pretty much since the Alexandria story line started is that the early seasons had fillers here and there but it seems like the last 3 seasons are essentially 8 episodes book-ended with a lot of action and a lot of filler in between. The show really would have done itself and the fans a service by sticking to 12-13 episode seasons.

As an aside, I would have been bummed if Rick died, but that would have been an absolute baller move on their part even though it would obviously greatly deviate from the comics.

I thought it was a decent episode. They are setting up a lot and it'll eventually all come to a head. IMO when you are planning an all out war then the steps taken need to be shown.

I thought it was pretty funny.

It was light hearted.

It does bother me that they have veteran survivors making rookie moves to advance a story line. The writing should be more creative rather than essentially taking the easy way out.

Regardless, I still enjoyed the episode. I watch this to be entertained.

They totally should have covered themselves in Zombie blood and work their way through herd without any problems. Michonne already knew how to do this.

Didn't want to mess up their bonkathon.

I actually thought the bulk of the episode was fine. I don't think the Rick fake out was meant to trick the audience as much as set up Michonne's reaction. I felt like quite a bit of plot AND character development was covered.

Having said that, the deer looked terrible and the sword toss was corny as it gets.

Not a bad episode honestly. Rick just had to screw up the plan by trying to take out the deer though.

Any thoughts on the scavengers group? I don't see these people helping Rick out at all but I could be mistaken. I feel like they are just taking stuff from Rick under false pretenses. They did say they were scavengers.

I think the show runners completely forgot about Heath by the way. There have literally been no updates on this guy since November.
