The Walking Dead- Seed


Last season on The Walking Dead, the show was really boring for the first half, and by the time something happened in the second half, we had stopped caring about the stereotypical, annoying characters. BUT THEN the adultery subplot was wrapped up, intolerable Dale was killed, we caught sight of an interesting-looking new stranger, and the group moved on. Also, there are zombies in this show, guys.

So we're still watching. We've never mentioned before how much we love the opening credits to this show. The music and images are so creepy and perfect.

This prison thing is like the most awesome level of someone's favorite video game. The group sure owned. Now that's teamwork. The singing portion went on too long, especially since those women had a couple of average voices. The five that went in to do hand-to-hand? Those are the show's official bad bitches. Think how hardcore you'd have to be in order to do that, and not even for yourself but for a pregnant woman/the good of the group.

Even if you think this show has pacing problems and each episode could stand to be ten minutes shorter, you have to admit the zombie fight scenes are intense. What's with Carl being all cool now? Who does he think he is, Once Upon a Time's Henry? We still hate him. Maggie's our hero right now. We like the time jump, but were curious as to what happened with Andrea and Michonne. They seem like friends.

Rick is like ice with Lori. It's not her fault, dude. You were "dead." Why does Michonne drag those zombies around? What good do they do? Do they fight? Is it to look threatening? It's hard to impress creatures with no working intellect.

The episode's ending was inspired. Not only were there living humans in the prison, Hershel was bitten. Now, he didn't die (which would have been good since we're afraid he might fill the self-righteous void previously occupied by Dale), but Rick had to cut his leg off many chops at a time. NASTY. Poor guy. This was a good start that got us excited about the season.
Episode grade: A-

      It is! So far. Poor How I Met Your Mother and The Office didn't get the memo though.

    I almost decided to stop watching this show, but I'm glad I watched the season premiere. I'll stick with it for a while.

    I think maybe Michonne takes the zombies around with her to ward off other zombies? You know, with the smell? Maybe they're pack mules too, since it looked like they were wearing hiking backpacks. Or maybe she thinks she can find a cure and she experiments on them. I dunno.

    Daryl is totally my favorite.

      Pack mules make sense. Daryl is great. I'm also digging Maggie.
