Walking Dead Season 5

[OLS]

Yeah, mine was just an off-color joke. But you'd be blind not to see the pattern for now.
I finally caught up, watching Ep.15 last night, and I agree, this seemed a LOT of 'catch up" style writing,
cramming Rick's sudden progression into one show so fast that it did not seem believable.
He's dead right about the world outside, but I think he should be prepared to stay and
blend or go and live his way. THose steel walls have him SO conflicted.

Part of me wishes they drew out the decline a little longer. I agree, he went batsh#t so fast it just isn't believable.

But then I remember how badly they did a "slow burn" type change back in season 2 and I realize this just isn't something their writers can pull off.

90 minute episode this weekend!

Rick went crazy too fast and Daryl became a nice guy too fast.
One episode he's gutting a rabbit on the porch and the next he's buddy buddy with the recruiter.
This whole season was rushed.
They spent the whole second half of last season getting to Terminus, and had that story line essentially wrapped up by this season's premier!
This year's mid season finale they were in Atlanta at Grady hospital, in the premier they're 60 miles outside of Washington.
I guess nothing happened along the way?
The finale was a disaster. It was all over the place.
