The Ricktocracy shall return.

ROFL Corllll!

Grilled Beth?

What a crock! :banghead:

sidenote: Rick is turning into a total badass.

They need to start being 2hours with that many commercials.. I do not think it even broke 40mins.. Felt closer to 30mins of footage..

And I do not like they were not definitive on the death.. I smell she is a member now or pregnant when it resumes next year..

And holy shit.. That was a huge pile of fresh bones..

Wow badass rick is starting but that ending.....cmon man

I was thinking the same thing. Season finales should be 2 hours long.

Yeah the finales should be longer, kind of like the Breaking Bad final episodes.

The flashbacks were interesting but took away to the current...we still are waiting on Beth, Tyrese and Carol

Zombies took a back seat to the human behavior tonight

Agree with everyone on TOO MANY COMMERCIALS for a finale.

I'm glad I've got the DirectTV deal that records shows. It makes it so much more enjoyable to watch

The show is not about zombies.

Worst cliffhanger ever...Jesus. Was really digging it until the end too.

I thought for sure that...



Now that would've been nuts...

while i think there was a (wide) blend of flashbacks that touched on all of the core episode players tonight, the re-introduction of bad ass rick is gonna be a game changer.

terminus doesn't stand a chance.

p.s. and just like my season 2 odds of who dies, totally way off again in season 4. ;)

It'll be sweet to see how they get out of this....def surrounded but maybe not seasoned killers in combat like Rick and the group. Carol and Tyreese are the wild cards for sure. hate that we have to wait till october

Question Concerning right as Rick was stepping onto the box car.

That was some crazy shit.

LOL, yeah, most people dont know that "the walking dead" are the living, breathing, talking humans.

A few questions I have....

haha, nm, i thought the episode was over. haha

you missed it, he was in there, they showed him towards the very very end.

who was the last person to have Daryl's poncho prior to Terminus? Did Beth use it? Or was it left on a clothesline?

Maggie was wearing it when they walked into terminus

Yep me too.

I saw on yahoo about the large amount of human bones laying on that tarp. Anybody catch that?

Your and idiot. The show/story is not about the zombies. It is about the what people will do to survive in extreme conditions.

They funneled the group exactly to wheere they wanted them to be. They're pretty darn salty. It's going to be a good fight.

I noticed when they were shooting at Rick's group that they weren't shooting to injure or kill, they were shooting the ground to redirect them... pretty good stuff.

Yeah I caught that too. Anyone else hear the people calling for help in the shipping containers when Rick and the group were running through Terminus?

Yep. I actually thought that was Maggie and Glenn and that group...

My wife said she thought she heard people yelling for help. I missed it that part but I saw all the bones, etc. Going to watch it again today I think.

It's very brief and it was easy to miss. My wife missed it as well.

Yeah, it was really brief, just before they ran into the room with all the candles.

ROFLROFLROFLROFLROFLROFLROFLROFL

So, looking at that pic of Rick in the comics he's missing a hand?

Yes

Yes, happened when he met the Governor.

Sorry about the filter bypass. :sulk:

Agreed about the stupid amount of commercials, it would be 4 minutes of show then 4 minutes of ads, between that and the flashbacks they wasted a ton of time that could've been devoted to the action and revealing more about Terminus.

No biggie... shit happens.

;)

FILLER!
USLESS FILLER!!!!

Yepper, the season finale should've been slam bang from beginning to end, with limited commercial interruptions

Now we gotta wait for frickin EVER to see anything else :huh:

'Beth was alive last time I saw her and was kidnapped' - why couldn't Daryl just say that?





"just gone" - I hate that typical lack of communication that passes for drama on the show.

and why didn't Maggie even question where her sister was?

I could never watch tee-vee without a DVR anymore

hell I thought fruit was being serious?

in one of the early episodes....season 1?....did Rick not say "We're all infected. WE are the walking dead."???

I already know about Terminus. My wife and kids don't. we were watching it last night and I was wondering....if I DIDN'T know....would I suspect it? my family doesn't have a clue. man are they in for a surprise.

somehow I missed the pile of bones! and so did they. hahaha.

Left some meat on them bones!

I think I see Beth in that pile.

She didn't know Beth was with Daryl in the first place, for all she knows Beth didn't make it out of the prison. Logically they'd compare notes, but not in the timeframe of that scene.

Exactly. Rick's "They're messing with the wrong people" would be a lot more convincing if they hadn't just put clown shoes on you by the way they methodically and calmly funneled you exactly where they wanted. I have no doubt that Rick's group will conquer Terminus through the machination of the writers, but I'm not sure how believable it will be, short of some deus ex zombie herd or Tyrese and Co.

Yes and that's how I took what Fruit Ninja posted.

How can you tell? She was always that skinny.

well, it could turn out that they are messing with the wrong people, especially if they cannibalize the prisoners.

Rep.

I knew they would keep us hanging - I soooo wanted idiot Rick and Carl to die

"yep - lets just bury our good guns and walk right on into the trap" - - - derp

They didn't know they were going to get captured, filleted, grilled, and eaten. I'm sure he thought they might confiscatetheir weapons, so he left a stash.

And if you think they're going to kill the series' lead, your and idiot.

I can still hope - I don't give a shit what these stupid producers say, Rick is an idiot.

A smart leader would have held back someone to make sure the rest made it through OK....at least they could have a better chance at rescue.

Because a single person left behind could take on all the people within?

Yep, it definitely isn't gonna be easy, Terminus has quite a few people who're all well armed... and they were smart enough to have sentries watching the back entrance from outside the fence line, hence the camera shot that peers through the fence into the compound as Ricks group enters.

They obviously anticipated some of the smarter groups trying to be sly and going in the back way... they probably even watched Rick cache the weapons, so I doubt those are available later.

as opposed to everyone ending up rounded up in a cattle car for the slaughter?

A better option might have been to just send in a scout and see what happens.

If I was running a cannibal camp I would just shoot them all right off and start carving...but it eliminates all the drama of Ranger Rick saving the day.

That's actually in the books. They don't have refrigeration, so they have to keep the meat fresh, which means carving what you need, keeping the victim alive as long as possible.

that makes sense too, I don't read the books or comics

kinda like the Dairy Farm in the Walking Dead game

btw - Season 2 is out and Clementine is kicking ass

The best option would have been Rick to listen to his own foreshadowing. Exactly how he explained to Carl of funneling the rabbit to the trap is how they ended up trapped. ;)

How I would have ended it:

Our group is running through the maze of Terminus and walks into a building and stop dead in their tracks, mouth opened shocked.

Camera shows Beth from the waist up, crying, alive, hanging from chains on the wall. Camera goes back to Rick or someone and he says "Oh my God." Camera back to Beth, and starts to pull out to reveal that her legs have been chopped off and tourniquet applied. [fade to black]

Anything is better than the weak, "they are screwing with us" tag line. lol

Was there something definitive that showed Beth as having been captured/eaten by the Terminus crew?

I'm thinking that she may end up being the Deus Ex that comes in. Maybe the people who "abducted" her really rescued her. Maybe they're from another group who is trying to stop the Terminus crew and knows of their nefarious ways.

Of course, there's still Tyrese, Carol, and Baby H.

I like that. Also, what if the moron yelling getting his face eaten escaped from Terminus? That is why he was so ill prepared for walkers?

Can someone please remind me of something?

Glenn. It was the watch Herschel gave home when he and Maggie got married.

Yep,thanks.

Edit:too slow

Baby you got a Stu goin

I watched last nights ep again and you can take Rick's ending comment two ways.
Either he really thinks he's gonna **** these asshats up or he's just trying to comfort Corl and the group.
Maybe both?

I think he's just had enough and is ready to kick ass at any moment.

He's finally let loose and Herschel isn't there anymore to talk him down.

I'm so torn on the heavy handed symbolism at times, but I at least like that they take a stab at it.

The rabbit snare being mirrored at Terminus was a nicely done one, imo.

The nerdy kid in the prison playing with the Legos that Rick brought for Carl while Carl cleans his piece was on the heavy handed side, though.
