Rick is not very accurate with an MP5

Why did they shoot the windows?




The budget should be balanced, the Treasury should be refilled, public debt should be reduced, the arrogance of officialdom should be tempered and controlled, and the assistance to foreign lands should be curtailed lest Rome become bankrupt. People again must learn to work, instead of living on public assistance. ~ Cicero 55 BC

I was wondering that too. I thought maybe they had a portable ramp for the herd to enter with or they were rendering the building uninhabitable?

Based on liking the actor on "Talking Dead", I want Father Gabriel around but damned if he hasn't become a moral compass.

And yeah, what's with shooting the windows? Putting holes in the Sanctuary roof to make the rainy season uncomfortable?

Wow, the talking dead is off the chain tonight. A 2 hour show about a 1 hour show is awesome none the less!

Mediocre episode.

Sometimes less is more.

In this case, more was a lot less.

Big TWD fan here but that was a pretty meh episode.

I thought the episode absolutely sucked. Really, they take out Negan's crew and it turns out it was just Rick's daydream, or maybe a flash forward? In either case, just stupid.

Success has gone to their heads - overdoing it with cut scenes, speeches, and feelings - oooh, how artsyfartsy.

It was crap IMO the more I think about it. Confusing and piecemeal.

Yeah, it occurred to me they could have been just as effective at taking out the glass by throwing rocks. Also, they seem to have explosives to spare, the way Daryl blowed up stuff literally left and right just to get a herd to follow. Why not lob those explosives into Negan's compound instead? Build some friggin catapults and go old school + new school.

I did not watch, neither do I plan to, but let me guess; due to Scott Gimple's continued involvement, we probably have old annoying tricks like confusing time jumps, useless flashbacks, horrible dialogue, long-winded preachy speeches, and last but not least, stupid mistakes and actions by characters. Does that about cover it?

If you didn't watch it, you're channeling your inner Gimple.

Still better than most of the crap. I'll continue to watch.
