GRR! ARGH! SPOILERS!
Bookshelf Q. Battler here. Tonight, The Siberian Yeti allowed me to watch one of my favorite shows, The Walking Dead.
It was the first time my super annoying house guest had ever seen the show. He liked it. All of the post-apocalyptic carnage reminded him of his home in Siberia, except the show is slightly nicer.
My observations, in no particular order:
- Rick’s group members are coming in to their own. Glenn’s becoming skilled at leading beyond the wall. Abraham’s taking over as wall construction leader. Rick’s the new sheriff in town again. Noah’s trying to become an architect for the community.
- Which is sad because that beginning scene where Noah expresses an interest in architecture was apparently a rouse to make us not think he’s about to become zombie lunch. RIP Noah. We hardly knew ye.
- Eugene is developing some guts and good for him. He’s right! He did get the group to DC, albeit in a morally reprehensible manner.
- Don’t mess with Carol.
- Rick Grimes = other man’s wife smoocher = the new Shane?
- Ironic that Maggie eavesdrops on Father Gabriel warning Deanna about Rick’s group. A few episodes back, Maggie told Gabriel off, leaving him so depressed he tossed away his collar. Could a little kindness from Maggie have kept his loyalty?
- Gabriel’s warning plus Aidan’s death – will that turn Deanna and the community against Rick’s group?
What did you think about tonight’s episode? Discuss!
