The one fag was killed so expect more drama about that, as the other fag comes to grips with his feelings. Grambo is ridiculous, I keep hoping she gets killed off. All hopeful characters get injured or have their hope taking from them. I'd be interested in a zombie show where they stay in one location and try to protect it. If it gets overrun they recapture it and start over again. Why don't they use moats? They never cover how they get food, electricity, medication and where they go to the bathroom. Also people are always terrible in these types of shows. wouldn't there be good people too that don't die horrific deaths?

Hollywood is more tightly controlled than it seems similar to the newspapers and TV stations. None of us would ever be allowed to write or decide about the program for longer than a few hours.

In the Walking Dead world everyone should be armed - including 10yo girls with small colts. But I would not send fertile women to battle undead or other men.

Realism is another issue. We covered the topic before - Walking Dead is in a world where you don't have heavy machine guns. Essentially it's a world where a cavalry charge like before WWI would be effective because no one has a machine gun. Those weapons would cut down scores of zombies easily. No way the military would be overrun - anyone having one of those could easily control the entire Zombie population and cut them to ribbons.



In the Walking Dead world you will never see such a thing.

But aside from the magical zombies I find the empowered menopausal women being the best fighters and women bellowing orders to men even more unrealistic than the undead.

Carol hides behind car while four guys fire assault rifles at her for a minute and she doesn't get hit.

[spokepoker]

Well if you look, nobody was actually firing any bullets. Or maybe they all had caseless ammo that didnt need to be stripped from a mag to the breech.

[Malone]

Rather than firing from cover and killing the three guys loading the truck, Carol runs into the open, missing everyone and getting attacked from 2 angles.

She hides behind a truck for a while, as above.

Then the two surviving guys turn around in the open and start firing at the zombies. Carol doesn't use this opportunity to shoot them both.

They then take cover behind the front of a lifted Humvee, and she doesn't take the opportunity to shoot them underneath the truck.

My problem with this season's episodes is that they're JUST SO DUMB. It's full of stupid shit like this.

Nah - Carol is the Terminator character of the Walking Dead. She was killed in the comics long time ago, but the SJW TV creators decided that 50+ year old women who bake cookies are the biggest warriors out there. They know now that they were sending grannies to the frontlines of the Vikings according to the HIstory channel, so Carol is the biggest bestest soldier out there. She simply anticipated where the bullets would go and crouched accordingly. She is already a memed out there:






In reality almost all women past 45 are incredibly weak:

Fast forward to 0:50. That leftist super-feminist reporter thought that she can do serious harm with her handbag. When the shooter grabbed her she was already wailing in pain. He probably could break her fucking bones with a sqeeze. The same goes for Carol.

No seriously - young strong Israeli women get injured at rates of over 40% at basic training. They cannot even run and duck properly - all with weapons and ammo. Even with weapons they are best used as a last-stance defensive capacity with as little movement as possible.

The show would be too boring if you actually applied basic sense to it.

IIRC in season 3 they do a road trip out of the prison and instead of taking a four wheel drive they take a Dodge Charger. They round a bend at high speed and get jammed up on a pile of zombies (who'd have thunk we'd see that in real life several years later). They have to do stupid shit or nothing interesting would ever happen.

Anyone that's worked around heavy machinery will look at the whole nonsensical plight of these idiots and wonder how they find the capacity to tie their shoes in the morning much less feed and clean themselves.

Find excavator. Dig inverse berm around entire prison, protecting not only from zombies but making all vehicular assaults impossible. Fortify berm with area trees, giving more security and greater line of sight. When zombies build up, do a lap of the area with the excavator and call it a fucking day.

Rocket science, apparently.

You need to suspend your disbelief.

TV shows need drama to advance the plot. If people do smart logical things there's no drama. That's why the bolded sentence never happens(it would be boring as fuck). The safe place has to get overrun, or invaded, like the prison in Season 3 or the mall in Dawn of the Dead or someone inside is secretly infected, hiding his sickness till he succumbs and starts eating the survivors.

Also they go on supply runs for food and meds, grow their own crops/trade livestock, etc, and Alexandria has multiple photovoltaic arrays for electricity and Negan extracts tribute in the form of supplies form other communities.

And I'm not seeing the tonnes of Muslim propaganda that Zel is claiming exists. But I'm impressed that guy in video took 2 15-second bit parts and wove them into a bullshit tapestry about a subliminal pro-Muslim conspiracy.

The Walking Dead is the most viewed show in the history of cable TV. What's happening is that the execs are asking themselves at the conclusion of every season is:

Quote:

What can we do to get more people watching without alienating the hardcore fans from Season 1?

So they add a token fag, lez, Muslim, interracial couple, etc. No insidious conspiracy, just a company trying to keep the gravy train running as long as possible.

They did try this several seasons back - they took over a prison. Worked pretty well until another group showed up with a tank, attacked and destroyed it. Idiots.

OTOH, supposedly every human is infected with whatever causes zombie reanimation. So sooner or later, the zombies will win out anyway. That’s why I stopped watching - the show is pointless. Add in the PC shit and it becomes unwatchable.

No - no conspiracy - just a minor eternal coincidence that ALL FUCKING SHOWS have to include the following subplots:

+ anti-gun (not this, but others do)
+ anti-nationalism
+ pro globalism
+ pro refugees welcome
+ pro mass immigration
+ diversity is our strength
+ gay propaganda
+ pro Islam propaganda
+ global warming / climate change / climate disruption propaganda
+ environmentalism propaganda
+ toxic masculinity
+ feminism
+ empowered women / female supersoldiers

Actually there are grants out there for writers when they add a few of those points. Publishers also have such incentives for fiction writers where one or many of the points.

It's also a mere coincidence that all the bloody media in the world from California to Ukraine spout the same #metoo points or any oither fucking issue. Every bloody media outlet is writing about the same thing.

And no - there is not much Islam in the show. David Wood was just taking the 30 seconds from this point, the badly used verse from the Hadiths and compared it with the previous episodes. Also he knows the comics and thus knows what Rick will do with Negan. That is how good propaganda works - not hitting you with the head, but just taking a tiny point here, a tiny there until you are in a feminist shithole and Harvey Weinstein who makes bad passes at women is now the example of all men and we should all kneel before every cunt out there as she can destroy lives just with a mere accusation (proof is misogyny).

But be it as it may - the show is more unbearable due to the cuntpowered bullshit and the dumb stuff the characters do. I absolutely loathed it when the guys from the Kingdom said goodbye to their loved ones and then they show a woman embracing her kid and her husband. So the seemingly healthy husband lets his wife go away instead of him? They did not show his face, because otherwise people would be rightfully upset about the bloke. Ah well.... everything for feminism I guess - even the sending out of your women to the frontlines in a population where all fertile women should be treated like bags of diamond. But no - the fertile women are all out there bellowing orders to much stronger and more experienced men.

Its messed up how in this show the moral center always dies. I guess they want this show to be very dark with no hope. I also hate how shows that take place in the dark do no have extra lighting to see what the actors are doing. You end up squinting at the show the whole episode, not sure what your looking at.

The Walking Dead absolutely fucking delivered this week.
