I like hearing what other groups refer to them as. The Governor called them "Biters", the hospital called them "Rotters". I forget what Terminus called them.

 

I'm with you, though my personal favorite is "Geek" and only Daryl seems to use that thus far.

Wowser, that really delivered IMO!   That first scene at the killing trough was as freaking chilling as anything I've ever seen on the whole series!   - OS

I about fell out laughing when they kissed.   Mostly laughing wondering who would lose their mind here first. I hope it turns out they are married.   At least being gay explains the fashion sense and

The 2 best tapes were far and above Darryl and Carol. I lost it when Darryl was standing there in her living room with that possum still in his hand, then Carol comes out dressed like June Cleaver tal

I hadn't watched TWD on regular TV until tonight. I picked it up since Christmas and watched all previous episodes on Netflix. Seemed to be ALOT of commercials tonight. At one point, there was less than 4 minutes of show between commercials. Is that normal?

No, it is not normal. Tonight was like the Walking Commercial.

Maybe we watch different shows. lol

I find TWD to have a very high time between the show segments. And the closer you get to the end of the episode, the more frequent and longer the breaks.

Once you get around 45 minutes into the episode, I can count on breaks around the 48, 52/54, and being the old time freak who recorded everything on vhs cassettes for years, I really get upset with the long breaks. I swear I've timed some from 3 and a half minutes to right at a full 5 minutes.

AMC is one of the worst offenders, but by no means alone. I think the standard was about 45/46 minutes of programming per hour in those days. Now I think it's about 38/39 minutes.

I was waiting for one of the girls to tell Tyrese "look at the flowers."  Surprised Herschel wasn't with them.

And what was with the lower body parts behind the wall while all the upper parts were in the back of that pick up?

That's why I DVR it and FFwd through the commercials. I can start watching the episode about 15-20 minutes after it starts and I end up finishing pretty close to real-time.

AMC gives you a good long first segment in TWD before a commercial.  Seems each segment of show before a commercial break gets smaller as the hour moves forward.

 

Decent enough episode.   

 

I liked how Tyreese offered up his arm to the zombie to keep its mouth occupied, LOL.  

 

Anyone else watch using StorySync?

Weird. Never heard of that. Looks like an effort to tempt people from cable cutting.

Yeah and it sucks. The more popular it gets the more commercials it gets. During the first and second seasons it wasn't like that.

Haven't seen a commercial in TWD since I went around the MIL's house to watch the last season finale realtime :)

I has some questions....

 

How did Noah's brother get out of his room? The door was shut when Tyreese was making his sweep through the house and the bedroom door was shut. I didn't think walkers/rotters/biters/whatever knew how to turn a doorknob (except for Morgan's wife in Episode 1).

 

Moreover, how did the boy walker sneak up on him without making any sound?

There were two zeds who bit tyrese. So the one behind the closed door may have been a third? Or a big continuity error

I'm still trying to figure that out. Maybe we'll find out in time, or maybe not if they never go back there.

Hey, this is the walking dead with the black man replacement plan. Bob dies, Gabriel is there to take his place.

 

Did they have a surplus?

 

Oh wait, Noah, right?
