Walking Dead Season 4

[Deepster]

I liked the episode last night, if for nothing else, the backstory on Michonne. Oh, and the walker massacre she had. Pretty sure the samarai sword would be my weapon of choice based off this show. I might eventually go down, but I'd go down looking pretty badass if I did.

That's why I have one. My 12 guage will help at longer distances.

Okay...so tell me I wasn't the only person who wanted to go thru the TV screen & kick Carl in the ~!

A teenager being a teenager. At least he doesn't wear his pants half way down his @ss.
And he had plenty to be angry/distraught about. And he handled it like many a teenagers have.

p.s. Thought Chandler Riggs did a really nice job.

If you saw the Talking Dead after, Danai got really deep into what was going on in Michonne's head/heart.

 

[G0UCONN]

Wasn't crazy about it. Too much of that loon Carl.

Liked the Michonne parts though.

 

[Fishy]

I really don't give a crap about Carl's character.

It's a one-note character and hasn't been even a little bit interesting.

I want a zombie to eat him.

 

[G0UCONN]

Carl reminds me way to much of Damien to like or root for him. Half expect Gregory Peck to show up one of these episodes and stab him in the heart ....

And that goofy hat has got to f&^/ing go...

Carl is one of my favorite characters. The idea of a boy soldier, someone actually growing up in the apocalypse as opposed to an adult who knows more about the prior life is much more interesting. He isn't necessarily hampered by pre-apocalypse morality. To see how he is molded by his environment as opposed to dealing with pre-apocalyptic baggage is just very interesting.

Most of the stuff he said about his father was true. I think eventually he'll make a much better leader than Rick. He's much more pragmatic.

 

[G0UCONN]

yabut.....he is a loon.

 

[meyers7]

yabut.....he is a loon.

How so??? Or what do you mean by loon??

 

[G0UCONN]

Beady eyes

Psycho tendencies....sociopathic

Goofy hat

Whiny

.....I don't like him.

 

[huskysupporter]

I enjoyed the episode despite the horrible acting by the actor who plays Carl. Season 3 and the first half of season 4 have been terrible, but this episode gives me hope.

 

[Joobie]

I agree, Go. I refer to him as "Carl, the creepy kid"...it's a nice use of alliteration & an accurate description (IMO).

That's what you mean by loon????? Wow, never heard it used that way before.

Beady eyes

umm, ok. That's a bad thing???

Psycho tendencies....sociopathic

A little. I like that in an apocalyptic person. But I call it pragmatic. It's a good thing.

Goofy hat

Cool hat. From the comics....iconic.

Whiny

Yea, he's a teenager. Most of them are. But like I said at least he doesn't wear his pants halfway down his @ss or play video games all day.

Actually Riggs did a really nice job of acting. He is really coming into his own.

Coming into his own as a mediocre actor? I enjoyed the writing this episode, but the acting from Carl and Rick was brutal.

 

[G0UCONN]

Rick looked like a walker all episode....

Weird that the walkers don't attack when Michonne makes them her pet and puts on a leash....

You have blinders on - he's terrible.

 

[Dove]

Yep, definitely a one note. Told my wife he needs to get bit soon.

I guess I just can see better than others. Granted he's no Lennie James, but he does a pretty good job with his character.

Told my wife he needs to get bit soon.

That ain't gonna happen. I could see Rick (the protagonist) going before Carl.

When it comes to showing emotion, Riggs went to the Kristen Stewart School of Acting.

Well they both were nominated for Young Artist Awards. Riggs, the last two years. So I guess some people, who know a little something about acting, disagree with you guys.

Like I said, some of us just might be better judges of talent than others. It's ok, you guys just aren't as good as I am. Few are.

No, no no. When I bring up critics awards and reviewers commentary about WDead versus other shows you summarily dismiss as haters. So you are ineligible to come up with some obscure award nomination* to justify a point everyone disagrees with.

The Michonne stuff was great. Long, long overdue giving her a backstory to justify her snarl and make her current interactions more difficult & ultimately interesting. The Carl stuff was fine in terms of Zombie meetings/screwups and a kid being on his own for a day, but it really delivered when Michonne showed up.

* Here are the nominess, I dare anyone to say they've heard of any of these shows or 'young actors'!

LOL. Meyers also defended Andrea's horrific acting by saying she had also won awards. The last award I could find at that time was a NOMINATION for a Gemini Supporting Actress Award in 1996. The Gemini is given out by the Academy of Canadian TV and Cinema.....and was discontinued in 2012.
