just enough to get pregnant anyways

............

I don’t watch the show. I tried to watch once and there were 2 little girls were allowed to wander on their own and who actually played with a trapped zombie. One of the girls ended up making the other become a zombie and then they shot the healthy girl.

These were children.

That human race doesn’t deserve to survive.

Well she wasn’t exactly “healthy”, she thought zombies were people, which is why she got her sister bit. And everybody whose seen Old Yeller what you do when the dog goes ‘round the bend.

Everyone has different tastes. You are describing what was probably the most powerful episode to date, but the story was far more than just those scenes. Those two girls had been through Hell, and it took its toll.

Earlier episodes focused on that very question with those two girls and the woman who was caring for them - what is the dividing line between surviving as a human or becoming a monster? How do you deal with such horrors as an adult" How do you raise a child with such horrors? What happens when a seemingly strong person breaks?

The episode you saw was the endpoint of that thread. It was damn hard to watch, but in context it had a great deal of meaning beyond some splatterfest gore scene.

I don’t watch the show.

That would be the issue, right there.

If you were a member of "THAT" human race, as an apparent whiney, I doubt you'd have lived long enough to have been able to make that judgment.........

As a side note, what's left on your television dial?

I stopped watching during the first or second episode when a character decided to steal anothers identity and boyfriend..

Reminds me of a FOX show. I don’t watch TV any more …..“Mindy Project” or something. I never watched FOX again except for a few football games.

OK, ok, all joking aside. Can we now expect you to refrain from any future comments on TWD since you have admitted that you no longer watch it?

hehehe.....

Come on, admit it, you know darn well that you want to make your continued presence known on either this thread or future TWD threads EVEN THO YOU DON'T WATCH IT ANYMORE........LOL!.............

Ouch, you suffered the misfortune of seeing the darkest WD episode as your first.

The older sister was portrayed as deeply disturbed leading up to this episode.

Many characters in the WD suffer from ptsd, which is completely believable, considering what they are experiencing.

You said, “That human race doesn’t deserve to survive.”

If you take in more of the show, you may change your mind, because the reason most people watch the show — even more so than to see the gory violence — is to see many decent and strong characters survive.

The healthy girl was NOT healthy!! Mentally, she was sicker than any zombie.
