[TV] The Walking Dead (*Spoilers*)

[Arrowstormen]

Shame we got none of that in S3, just pointless bickering with no meaning. I agree that action on its own is plain boring, but it's a good storyline, character development, good acting, all combined with bits of well timed action that makes a show good. I loved S1 and S2 and had high hopes for S3, I was disappointed. Sort of excited for S4, but struggling to get properly into it due to how bad S3 was, hopefully it's extremely awesome. Although, they do have me interested in this new threat they seem to be talking about.

Did you read the comics? I think they counted a lot on the "humans are more dangerous than zombies" factor being engaging and new to the show.

[Waaldo]

Awwwww I think it's so sweet that everyone is now in a relationship and all happy and safe. The fuck is this shit? How about lets have the writers read the comics next time.

They are just making shit up and ruining the story. All they do is bring in new 1 line characters and then kill them off that episode like that means anything. They were all depressed that what's his face got killed in the super market. At least Beth has some sense. I knew after they let the governor live it was going to be a downward slope.

Now they are all nice and cozy and dying from swine flu. Wow, how exciting, I can't wait for next weeks episode.[/sarcasm]

[draykorinee]

Unremarkable start, the love in at the start was cringey. I still look forward to the next episode.

[TJ]

I thought it was an alright episode, better than the majority of season 3 episodes. Next few look good from the trailer at the end. Here's to high hopes.

First episode was pretty awesome, I laughed quite a bit at one point, i'm sure you'll all know what I'm on about when it happens.

I will stop watching it if Beth dies, she's probably the only grounded human in the show, the rest of them are battlescarred and slightly bloodthirsty.

I didn't know anyone watched that, I hate those things, spoilers as far as im concerned.

yeah, that was seriously stupid, who built that place.,

The roof can withstand a helicopter crash but not a single zombie. I can understand if every zombie stood in the same spot on the roof and fell though at the same time, but what they did was just ridiculous.

This was the problem that I had as well. I could understand it collapsing near the Helicopter but if it was going to give way further away then the whole damn roof should have come down rather than just little holes where they were stepping. That's all aside from the fact that they've been up there milling around for who knows how long but it only starts to collapse when there are people downstairs? Required a lot of suspension of belief and I'm normally pretty forgiving of stuff like that.

You've obviously never heard of Murphy's Law.

I want this show to be good. I really want it to. Then it just keeps being bad.

you seem to forget we're about 2 years into the outbreak now that roof had no maintenance in 2 years the helicopter crashing and more then likely spewing fuel all over the roof noty to mention whatever weather was happening in that area over the course of 2 years and walkers walking on it nonstop would cause it to weaken severely

I don't know much about buildings, but 2 years is nothing, and fuel wouldn't have a corrosive effect, as to weather, how many roofs have you seen fall down due to some bad weather? Lets not make excuses, its a weak way to add in some action.

As Draykorinee said 2 years isn't a lot of time when it comes to stuff like that but what I also said was I didn't have a problem with the roof collapsing due to the damage it sustained with the helicopter crash and weight. What I find highly improbable was the selective giving way instead of an entire collapse. The weight of a single walker can make it give way but that helicopter is just chilling up there? If the roof was going to cave in individual spots that would have been the first thing through, a long time before it started giving way under the weight of a human.

amazing first episode to the season.

i dont know what some of you expect, every episode you guys say the same thing but you keep coming back, maybe this show just isnt for you.

haters gonna hate, one of the best episodes of the show

I dont think IVe ever used hate or said any dislike of a single episode until this one, so yeah, thats the reason Im critiquing this episode, because Im a hater.

[Dasffion]

The only problem I had with the episode was the completely unrealistic roof. I don't think that makes me a hater. The only thing that I've said previously about the show that can even somewhat be construed as negative was the fact that the walkers are sometimes super stealthly like ninjas.

[Joey Ray III]

I want this show to be good. I really want it to. Then it just keeps being bad.

word. i really want to like this show and i kinda do but damn it's just fucking silly sometimes.

tht roof also has beams supporting it. We dont know how old the roof was to begin with, it could have needed repairs before the outbreak. The walkers that fell through very easily could have fallen through weak spots between beams.

A roof has to be specially reinforced to be able to hold the weight of a helicopter, one that isn't won't hold that kind of weight for long, especially not two years and with all the flaws you want to ascribe to it that make it so it won't even hold the weight of a person. The helicopter looks like a Boeing CH-47F Chinook which can weigh anywhere from 24,000 lbs (empty) to 50,000 lbs (max weight). It's not likely that a standard roof would even have stood up to a crash let alone the weight sitting there for 2+ years.

I'm far from the only one to notice this either.
