JSS - The Walking Dead

From Cookie Queen to hard ass killer
Carol is the pin up of all middle aged men and women everywhere

Played like the most taught of movie thrillers this episode is one of the best episodes EVER from The Walking Dead.
With the alpha fighting population away, Peaceful Alexandria is suddenly attacked by the scavenging murderers, The Wolves. The existing Alexandrians are totally unprepared for such savagery and scores are massacred  before Carol turns the tables with Morgan in tow.
Visceral, exciting and technically impressive, The Walking Dead just gets better and better.

Spencer.......weak but cute as a button

  1. I believe you called that one, didn't you? (attack on Alexandria)

    Good grief, I don't watch the show and I don't even need to, with your updates, but here I am sticking my nose into the comments on it! You're slowly pulling us in, John - aaaiiiii!

  2. It was, hands down, one of the best episodes ever. And I loved that the whole attack played out in real time, 45 minutes, ding the casserole is done. Just brutal, tense, and wonderfully done. Just Survive Somehow...amazing!!!

  3. I never made it past the season at the prison...the show is just too bleak for me. End-of-the-world movies, books, and TV shows depress me terribly.

  4. They topped the season opener. I never wanted to like this show, and when I go back and watch season 1, I wonder why I kept going. But it is on fire the last couple years.

  5. I said exactly the same, one of the best episodes ever! And thank goodness Carol can go back to being the warrior woman she really is. Plus big bonus of Paul Bettany on The Talking Dead.

  6. I was worrying if I had missed your synopsis. I do enjoy your take on the show and we have pretty much been on the same page.

    I forgot to thank for my addiction to this show. I had ignored it successfully for two years. Your reviews converted me to a full blown addict of The Walking Dead.

    When I grow up, I may want to be like Carol...or Daryl...I haven't decided yet. I don't know how good of a cook Daryl is.

  7. Carol is so badass it is delicious. What makes her so awesome is that she was an abused spouse. LOVE her!!

  8. I was expecting this this morning since I didn't see it yesterday but no, so I scrolled down. I still haven't caught up on the season opener so I still don't know why they left the town so unprotected. Carol was awesome with her war paint and her ninja hood.
