“WHY DON’T THEY LEAVE??”

They are in Alexandria. They could easy sail away. Marinas there are pack with boats. Eastern shore of Maryland would be easy living.

I’m frustrated with the show but if they moved the show would be boring!

I just want a few episodes, every now and then, where the live in peace.

Thanks for the link. I have arrowroot on hand. My doc has restricted my carbs, and the arrow root is used in some recipes for low carb bread. I’ll have to check my back to basics books to see how the acorns were used back in the day.

I read on a Prepper web site ethanol keeps well, gas doesn’t. But the problem is you have to invent a 100% ethanol car.

Be dependent on Eugene??

In real life Rick is a limp wristed Englishman.

That is about the only type of character TWD hasn’t introduced. They have or have had black, white, Asian (Glenn), LBGT (Tara, Jesus), Muslim (Sidiq) and probably more that I can’t think of. Would not be surprised if a transgender is introduced too.

This has also occurred to me. Mostly because killing Carl makes no sense. My daughter tells me that he is an integral part of the comics (and is still alive in them) in the future. Why kill him.

Could it have anything to do with "white privilege" or "toxic masculinity"?

When I saw the scene with Carl and Sidiq, I thought it looked and sounded as if Carl's thread in the comics is being handed off to "Sidiq". At least, that is how I took it.

The only other possibility I see, is to have Enid take over Carl's thread in the comics, 'cause girls are better than boys, don't ya know.

Carl Grimes was sacrificed on the altar of political correctness. That is why he had to die; and, it was then fitting that he died in the burnt out shell of the church, his body laying about where the altar should have been.

Also, what is Rick's motivation going forward? Rick doing everything he could to create a world for Carl to live in. A future, for Carl and Judith. Now Carl is gone. Carl's future was a motivating factor in Rick carrying on. And, I might add, the actor playing Rick, Andrew Lincoln, used that motivation in his portrayal of Rick, so the actor also had the rug pulled out from under him. Are Rick's days numbered? Since we can no longer count on the events being played out in the comic series, as being the base for the storyline in the t.v.. series; Rick dying is just as possible. Was that last scene, with him holding a bad wound while sitting under a tree, a sign of things to come?

it would be great to see a blacksmith but then the loud pinging....

Hilltop showed a working blacksmith shop(making spears, IIRC)

It was in the enclosure and away from walkers grasp. One assumes any walkers attracted to the sound were dispatched like the ones at the prison

The lady actually made horse shoes or made adjustments?

And a farrier putting shoes on a horse isn't very loud as the hoof absorbs much of the noise. Working the horseshoes on an anvil could be noisy, depending how much work is needed.

Trolling on a thread regarding a TV show you admit you don't watch any more is an indication that not only are you lonely and looking for attention but it is you who is truly sick..........

I've provided you with a link to maybe enhance your life with a companion but if you can't afford the product, maybe you should just get yourself a cat or a gerbil..........and stop dropping your crap on this thread.

No, you became vulgar and personally attacked me over fictional characters that I expressed distaste in. You truly are sick.

“They killed off many favorites and the plots have become predictable and stale at times. It needs some new energy to not be finished within a few seasons. Conversely, game of Thrones has done it very well as did breaking Bad. That’s my unsolicited opinion which can be considered BS to some. Who cares lol.”

agreed. too much angsty whining between various pairs of characters, took Carl 30 minutes of screen time to die, way too much confusing action in the dark, too much automatic gunfire in lieu of plot, and worst of all, boring. I found myself skipping more and more of the BS just to get the plodding plot to move along a little bit faster.
