EPTIt is fairly silly how quickly they killed off almost all of the woodbury survivors though, most of them did nothing at all, doesn't seem like there was much point in having them in the first place. The fucked up little girl seems pretty intersting though, so that could be good.

What kind of shitty built up threat is that? It was the outer fence and was only breached by a few dozen zombies in two places. It's not the climax, it's only episode 5 where they're building up to a point where they will probably confront a herd they can't hold back and abandon the prison.

Not to mention a gazillion ways to deal with it other than leaning right back against the fence from the other side. How can they deal with it? There is only two people able to do it. Everyone else is sick, or was preoccupied searching for medicine. Rick has to feed everyone, Hershel tends the sick, and Carl could help but Rick won't let him (until after this episode). Its pretty much just Maggie at the fences. I'm pretty sure the idea is that everything that could go wrong is converging all at once to prevent them from addressing the fence before it's too late. Otherwise they'd be at the prison in season 5, too. | ||

Out of all the people they brought back from Woodbury, apparently everyone is either sick or a main character of the show (or both). Where the *** is everyone else?? Well, it was a great episode in any case. I really wish they would leave the prison at some point though. Well, it isn't TOO inconceivable that the majority of Woodbury got infected since they lived in the same cell block before quarantine. | ||

Sickness kills indiscriminately. Everybody dies, EXCEPT for all the main characters (and don't say Rachel was a main character, because she had 1 episode of introduction before she bit the dust). Herschel is immune (lucky him), Glenn is miraculously saved (as is Sascha), and nobody else got infected. The only people NOT infected were the main characters + D'Angelo. But I am willing to let that bit slide. I am also feeling forgiving about the retarded dealing with the fence. Instead of just luring the zombies to somewhere else, or killing them faster, they let the fence collapse. I am letting it all slide, because this episode was finally good. It had character development, suspense and plenty of zombies. | ||

I mean it still really bothers me that they ignore zombies attacking the fence in area greater more than 5. If they're really planning to stay in that area they should protect the fence with their lives, even if a few zombies can't break the fence they can weaken it. The fence sounds like global warming. Ideally you should take care of it early before damage is done but laziness, more pressing concerns and human nature tend to fuck things up. Loved the episode, felt like shit was inches away from the fan. Not too excited about the governor returning but will see how it goes. | ||

I just can't stand one-dimensional villains, especially with an eye-patch lol. It's not like it is super fucking terrible, but I'd rather not have him back at all  | ||

zombie gathering/build up at the fence, maybe just maybe, overnight they are being lured by the governator, feeding them and so on. That is why zombies does not ran out. (justified) rick and carl vs the zombies, - yeah they can pretty much finish them with ease as they are experienced headshooting marksmen using automatic weapons = EZ kills (justified) hershel immunity, well maybe just got lucky? built immunity because of too much exposure? (a little justified) not closing all the cell doors - kinda dumb but then they have difficult people with them (like the father and son) so cant blame them, at least hershel closed the doc's cell just to make sure. creepy annoying little girl - still waiting for her to go batshit crazy / do something really stupid that she will be the next Lori for the netizens to hate and gets killed epicly ( but i'm afraid at a cost of a life of a main cast (say hershel's other daughter) or I am hoping her sister kills her hahaha, i think her younger sister is a bad ass child. pretty expected - governor will mess shit up, will cost some lives (maybe main cast) - will not stop till he dies. D'Angelo - not sure if he would be a traitor or would be fucking up stuff again tyrese surviving the whole zombie sacrifice thingy from last episode - means he is going to be impt, not dying anytime soon or for a while, guaranteed contract until season 5? Other guaranteed cast not to die - Rick, Carl, Daryl maybe add Glenn? I LOLed at the last part where they are growing a garden full of peas in the backyard (plants vs zombies? LOL) | ||

Only headshots do anything, one headshot is enough to kill a zombie, and all firing in bursts does is empty your magazine faster. maybe just rick wanting to teach him that there is that option (just a good to know thing). But when you hear the shots it is like one to two shots, most I heard were 2-3 burst shots like a glock in CS. maybe if it gets bad, carl can have an option to spray them (aiming heads) if they get really close. | ||

Here, lets just bust out our military grade weaponry we have stockpiled and kill them once and for all because doing so before they broke the fence would have made too much sense!" "Oh btw this can be done from yards away with only two people!" As others have said besides just conserving ammo the biggest factor was the noise attracting more zombies. Now, one of my last week nitpicks was were did the rest of the zombies go that were all around the perimeter if the fence, but then again I don't know if next episode maybe the prison does get overrun by a massive herd they can't repel. It does appear that is what it is heading for, and the governor being just outside doesn't make their situation look any better. As far as poking them in their paper mache' heads I agree they should have been more on top of it earlier in the season, but to be fair this last episode it is literally only Maggie and a bunch of kids and Maggie was out there stabbing them. | ||

Right now there are survivors and survivors. You can clearly see who got over the zombie-infection and who still has the potential to turn into a walker when they die. Hershell being able to take care of the ill without getting any symptoms has a realistic explaination. He was bit and had his leg cut off, therefore he has immunity to the illness that seems somewhat harsher on the people that are still zombie-infected (who coughs blood up from a regular cold normally? No one). Secondly there's Carl. Carl back in Season 2 got shot and he nearly died. I believe, that this is the reason why he also isn't getting the cold that kills people. Rick as well got into a coma BEFORE the zombie attack and SURVIVED and therefore he's also "cured". This also makes it possible for Glenn to get the sickness (which he did), because he hasn't had a near-death experience. | ||

This isn't LOST, i'd guess they're still trying to make a little bit of sense here. | ||
