US: The Walking Dead Season 5 (contains spoilers)

The Priest is just annoying, sooner he dies the better - Nothing he can do will be interesting.

Another slow episode overall. Build up looks like next week might actually wake me up.
 
I was watching it with the mrs and talked her through it before it happened.

- Emotionally connect with the idiot
- Get tricked into letting him go / walk around
- Get head caved in
- Profit
 
They are burning too much time on nothing. It's virtually impossible to keep actors looking identical for so many years. It's simply not sustainable to keep moving plot forward by couple houses and one bush per season by having 15 minutes of Terminus action, four episodes of group walking and 8 episodes of what the houses and a bush looked like from every characters perspective until last 15 minutes of the series ends with cliffhanger. It will ultimately lead to demise of the series. Two episodes per single day, by the time this chess turn ends by midseason, Carl the character will be just a week to ten days since escaping Terminus, but the next time we see him, the actor will be a year older, possibly several inches taller and shaving. They will have to start killing off all the youngsters to maintain this snail pace.
 
Having read the comics and being up to date with them. I am sure they could easily pick the pace up with the episodes, and get to the story instead of adding 2 episodes of filler before a decent one.

As much as I like the walking dead series, it is really becoming tiresome. I was the pace of the first season back!!
 
I'll be glad when they get to have a hot shower / wash. Never mind any other burning issue facing them all, I simply want Rick to have a shave! :D

He was clean shaven off set, which implies either they put a fake beard on him every episode, or his character gets to clean up before the end of the mid-season break.
 
Still struggling with the timeline of this season. No way all that would happen only to ping over to ginger face on his knees...for how long?

Meh. Still enjoying the watch though
 
This season is following exactly the same as last season. Loads of build up for the rescue from the bad guys and not much else. It's just rinse and repeat.
