-The only exciting part was when Rick and the group ambush the cops. This salvaged what was left of this dull episode. Everything else was filler.
-So much filler that in fact I could wipe myself with it for days and have more on the roll to spare; anyone need toilet paper? I could have written a better script.
-Abraham on his knees the whole episode is meant to symbolize his hopeless state, yeah, whatever; showing him like this for the whole episode felt like a waste of screen time to me. I got the point the last episode; yeah, he's depressed and has nothing to live for, move on. I don't need to see him like this the whole episode. Filler. Don't even get me started on Eugene who did nothing in the episode. What a waste of the character's potential.
-Glen and Maggie go Fishing? Sounds like the start to a bad joke to me. Boring. I don't care. Nobody else does either. Waste of screen time.
-I would have preferred to see the conversations between Eugene and the group this episode; instead the writers chose to show Eugene asleep and Abraham doing nothing on his knees. Move this thing along, please, and stop repeating the mistakes of season 2 with these fillers.
-Bad dialogue between Abraham's group throughout. Boring and dull. Who wrote this script? At least have something exciting happen to the group besides let's go fishing 2.0.
-Gabriel leaves the church? Interesting. So the whole time after the massacre he's been plotting to leave. Could have been made more interesting by having something more significant happen to him than a Christian zombie attacking him, but okay, what do I know. Yeah, yeah, symbolism.
-Quit with all the water metaphors, too. Everyone's drinking water; Abraham, Glenn, Maggie, the cop, Sasha. I get it, water and similar necessities and resources symbolize a lot in the zombie apocalypse. However, nobody cares about symbolic episodes; we want zombies, action, and more zombies.
-Real machine gun bullets would have killed every police officer in that hospital car 5 times over. I'm just supposed to ignore this for the purpose of the show, I know, whatever, so not a big deal. I just like more believable scenes in my shows is all. Reminds me of the silliness of the van somehow magically landing on its wheels on the last episode even though physics would clearly have preferred the van hit the ground face first or upside-down.
-Maybe I'm just mad because I expect so much more from one of my favourite shows. I just hope the show gets better and stops with all these filler episodes.
-Oooooh, I saw the ending coming a mile away, not exciting to me at all. Not a good cliffhanger.
Producers: USE YOUR AIR TIME WISELY. EVERY MINUTE OF THE SHOW SHOULD FREAKING COUNT. THE SHOW FEELS SO SHORT WITH ALL THE LONG ASS COMMERCIALS IT'S NOT EVEN FUNNY ANYMORE. I WANT AT LEAST 50 MINUTE LENGTH; 35-40 MINUTES DOESN'T CUT IT ANYMORE.
I don't want to wait every week for filler episodes. Let's hope for a killer mid-season finale that actually gets somewhere.
6/10.
