So what did you guys think about episode 9 then??
It was really like the book (without the Rick going wacko part again) so I loved it. Looks like we're in for some background stories and individual action this last part of the season

Not too sure about whats to come, but things are starting out slow again. I hope it doesnt get all sappy and overdramatic.

I think they needed to do this show that Carl is trying to grow up and showing signs he can make a go at it alone. But I liked they didn't make him so dominate that he couldn't realize he still needed someone. I like getting a little more insight into Michonne and what transpired to make her that way and watching her realize she needed the group to keep her balanced and give here a sense of family.

I was really hoping Carl would be bitten a few times in that episode. I hate that character so much.
Michonne's story is good. It was good to see that she has given up the loner life.
We need another Merle type character, he's been my favorite so far.

If everything goes in the direction that it's going right now (which I think is awesome) it seems possible that Abraham will pop up (there's your Merlesque type) but then again, they totally fugged up Tyreese's personality so I'm not counting on a similar character to the one in the books. And Carl yep he gets on my nerves too.. read the books.. I think you'll like Carl there ...

I am a huge fan of the comic and have been able to hang with Robert Kirkman a couple times. I saw him in Jan and he said that this second half of the season will be a little closer to the comic since he is writing more episodes then he has in the past. Last weeks episode was right our of Issue 49-52 of the comic...as a big fan of the comic I like when the show is close to the comic. Hence the reason why I hated season 1 after the 2nd episode.

Loved episode 9 for that same reason. However, if it were the same as the comic then we'd know what happens next all the time.. so that's why some changes are great.

I agree but going a total radical different path like the science blowing up at the season 1 really turned me off

Last episode was so slllllllllllooooooowwwww... they started to get back on the right track with the last few episodes, too. I hope it's just a bump in the road and they don't start going all LOST on us.

Good show but very slow at times. It was best when The Governor was in it though.

fugg. anybody else fallen asleep during the last two episodes??? It's slowed down a lot over the last few weeks but for some reason I still find it compelling viewing. At the moment a vast majority of what is on in the UK is cr*p but this just keeps me coming back each week. One of only a couple of my can't miss programs

me too. however, these last two episodes have been a snooze fest.. no reason not to kill off a few characters like in the comics, that's what this season is lacking

As long as Daryl isn't one of them

As long as Daryl isn't one of them actually I think he should be one of the first to bite the dust. Never liked the character as it took away all what Tyreese should have been in the show and obviously, because Daryl's not in the books either. Others who should be killed of soon: Bob, Tyreese's sister, Carol, Maggie's sister (if she's not dead already), the baby (shouldn't have appeared again), and one more who gets killed in the books in savage fashion but I'm not gonna mention cause I suppose they'll end up doing that one!

The line where she says, its allright I didnt detsroy the brain is straight from the comic book. Its was the twins story.....
Tyrese was a badass in the comics!!! Alot of characters get there moments switched from comic to tv. Still a great show

yep. loved that last episode and how the remade the twins' story... in the books it's Carl who kills the evil twin but on the show it was logical to make Carol do it, it made it much sadder..

Anyone watch the TV show last night? It was the best episode in at least two seasons. Hopefully the show can kill it for the rest of the season.

Could have been a season finale. I'm so sentimental cried during the one scene. Team Carol all the way, I love her. It has been interesting watching her character evolve over the seasons.

Fantastic episode. Even more brutal than I remember. Hope it keeps up! It was definitely one of the more brutal episodes. The episode reminded me of why I watch the show. When it's good it's very good. I'm actually becoming a fan of Rick now.

Great way to start off the season. Lets see if they can keep the brutal gore coming. I watched the throat slitting scene a couple of times, and cringed each time I heard the bat hit and the knife slice.

Anybody else recognize the blond haired guy from season 4 that Carol and Rick helped out? He gives Rick the look like "oh s**t they got u too!?!" Thought that was pretty cool. Gotta go back and watch that episode.
Dark episode indeed. Loved every second of it!!

btw- u guys saw the Negan look alike at the end?? Oh yeah? During the next episode preview? Need to go back and watch it! I went back and watched the episode with the blonde haired guy and the hippy girl with the tattoo on her leg. Turns out the watch that Rick gives the blonde kid is the same one that guy from Terminus is wearing when Rick blanks on him. At first I thought it was Glenn's watch.
