3 straight episodes without Rick and the main storyline. What were the writers thinking??

This season has turned so bad. Having the focus on 1 story each episode is ridiculous. These characters aren't that great for an entire episode. 3 snoozers in a row.

Actually I think with today's episode, everything falls in place to a great 7th and 8th episodes. 3 first episodes were great action packed, 4th with Beth was necessary to develop her story (I think she or Carol might die on mid season finale) and on the 5th we had Abraham's and Eugene's development, these 2 characters are instrumental for the plot and what they experienced on that episode is needed,

AK, I think this is no longer a Rick and co show, Carol and Daryl had a great episode this week! Can't be action packed forever, character development is needed!

Sooooooo boring. Like fast forward boring. I honestly couldn't care less about Beth and Carol in this shoddy ass hospital with boring ass fake cops. There's like no storyline now that makes this entertaining.

You are not into character development I see lol.

Much of the dialogues in the last 2 episodes are instrumental closing some inter-character plot lines and setting up for a big character death.

I'm fine with the characters the've developed for 4 years. Not a fan of this individual episode character development out of no where. Like this hospital group I couldn't care less about. I actually hope they kill Beth and Carol. I thought Carol was gonna be killed for years. These episodes are just soooo brutally boring!

I thought tonight's episode was good, wasn't bored with it at all. Darryl and Carol have good chemistry.

Tonight's episode was excellent in my opinion. It focused on Carol's guilt over her transgressions from the past. And had a bit of a buddy storyline with the "Adventures of Daryl and Carol". The symmetery of Daryl burning the bodies of the walkers with Tyreese burning the girls' bodies was just great production. Writing off an episode because you just don't like that particular character seems a bit jaded to me. If you haven't figured out that the writers like to focus on one character's backstory and development at a time and that they invest the large part of the episode to that... it might be time to find a new show. Because that will 100% continue for the rest of the season. And the award-winning writers probably aren't going anywhere. Of course there were some kind of silly parts, but overall it was good. I thought it was interesting that the walkers basically committed suicide in the pursuit of food by walking off the freeway after the van too. Are they getting more desperate for brains..

I recall couple episodes in the past where they focused on one story, but majority of the shows, they've had a number of story lines revolving around the main group. Some of the story lines were a little more boring than the others, but it all was geared towards a plot. The past 3 episodes were an entire hour of one or two characters. I'm definitely not the only one out there. The Internet is filled with people that are bored out of their minds after loving this show from the beginning. And the Walkers aren't even scary now. They are no threat, guys can kill hundreds at a time... unless the writers want to kill someone off. The Daryl and Carol scenes just seemed like addons to pad their storyline. It was a horrible episode and very boring.

thought this episode was boring, they tried to cover everyone and got nowhere with the storyline. Next week will be epic though.

Only thing I would have changed is making the Preacher a badass. Like he takes the machete and just starts icing fools! Doesn't make sense that someone that scared would roam the woods alone.

Any chance we get an episode tonight like the season premier?

First half of Season 5 has been shit other than that amazing premier episode.

Well they killed off beth, was kind of hoping we'd find out what happened to the cholo retirement home since they were back down town.

WOW. What a midseason finale. Sad to see Beth go, but at least it was shocking and explosive. She had real guts, wasn't afraid to ice somebody when necessary and had a bit of awkward chemistry with Daryl. But I guess she had to get stabby with some scissors. Oh well.
