Meh, I found it a drag. Having said that, I'm not a fan of minor flashbacks In Movies and TV, let alone continuously for an hour.

You must have been a big fan of Lost

I hate flashbacks in every format, be it TV, movies, comics, books, but Lost is the only one where I've really enjoyed it.

Since we never saw the fall out of Glenn's death, and instead went to a back story, is there more to unfold there? Could he be alive or is it simply taking some of the emotion out of a big character loss?

I noticed in the opening credits Glenn's watch was still ticking but Steve Yeun's name was no longer there. I remember when Carol was booted out of the gaol Melissa McBride's name was still in the credits even though she didn't show for those few episodes.

Perhaps. I note imdb has him with 81 episodes through 2016. Not sure how many they have in the can though. Could also be in a lot of flashbacks.

Maybe Morgan will attempt to change the Wolf the way that Eastman changed him?

I thought that Morgan was going to let him starve to death when he locked the door .

 

[eagles rule]

I don't get why they didn't humanly kill the girl that fell over and the guy on the fence.

Just stood there watching like zombies.

I suspect it's because Mashone is trying to earn the Alexandrian's trust .

imdb is also user inputted, and unlike Wikipedia doesn't require as strict fact checking.

besides, Each show deals with credits differently.GOT only puts in the people actually in the episode. To me, they just want to make it look like he may have died. Especially after comments from the creators.

How reliable are IMDB though? Don't they just assume that the characters will be credited for every episode?

Yeah... that's gonna take a while. Don't think he'd get away with it.

Ok episode, nothing special. Didn't mind getting a bit more info on why Morgan is now sane and tree-huggy. +1 for the stupidity of Eastman's death, was just instructing some aikido then when the plot required it looked like senior citizen trying to shuffle around a fire hydrant.

P.s. Did Morgan lock or unlock the door on that Wolf bloke at the end? If he unlocked that door the so help me god......

I thought that Morgan was going to let him starve to death when he locked the door .

Makes no difference does it? The house had windows, not like that guy is in any way safely secured even if the door is locked.

His sacrifice has changed Morgan into the person he is now.

i thought it was a brilliant ep, character development was top notch and Eastman's story was truly tragic but has made Morgan the man he is today

A liability who will no doubt get several people (or 1 important person) killed.

 

[Underdog]

Further to the dodgy writing of Eastman's death, can we also acknowledge that the wolf fella sat there listening to Morgan's long winded story only to go "I got scratched, lol" and had such disdain for him to threaten to kill everyone.

I think the problem with that episode was that it wasn't really TWD. It was more FTWD. TWD is a gore thriller and FTWD is more a horror drama.

Unlike many here, I don't expect quality writing from TWD, nor does it need it. It is what it is - ridiculous fun.

Not sure. Sometimes people seem to know and even write in flashback appearances. I'm not buying into it but it's cool to speculate.

 

[eagles rule]

Yeah... that's gonna take a while. Don't think he'd get away with it.

Yeah doesn't make a whole lot of sense but Eastman has left him with that story and Alexanderia residents are likely dead or will be over run and The houses abandoned .

Ooooooh don't go any TWD forum. You'll get bashed there. Everytime their is a subpar episode, and you say that, you'll always get handed the excuse "but... but... character development" Well TWD sucks at character devlopment episodes. "Clear" is the only one that has worked so far in the series. To succeed, TWD needs the gore, and it fails when it doesn't

Yeah good point. He'll probably escape and kill someone major, meaning that Rick will be pissed with Morgan.

I doubt people know, it was definately just assumed. Really adds nothing to the "Glenn is alive" theory. I think he's in a number of flashbacks...

Or the other guy with the group that Morgan let go who picked up the gun. But yeah seems like a major arc of this season will be Rick vs Morgan battle of philosophies.

I thought the guy who picked up the gun was shot by Rick in the van?

Oh was he? No idea.

yep

 

[cheesedogg]

Correct me if I'm wrong but shouldn't that whole episode have been in black & white?

Ugh, those writers & their lack of continuity

 

[Alesana]

Worst episode ever. Morgan is a lame dumb campaigner

 

[BotsMaster]

I suspect it's because Mashone is trying to earn the Alexandrian's trust .

Earn their trust? By watching them die horribly?

 

[eagles rule]

I don`t think the surviving Alexanderian`s she`s with, need to see Mashone putting their friends down humanely .They just wouldn`t get what she`s trying to do ,so she just does nothing and watches with them .

The Walking Dead are currently filming next season, and there are photos of Steven Yeun being on set. I'm quite certain he hasn't died tbh

Mixed responses for the Ep. I thought it was a fantastic Ep. Change of pace and got to see Morgan's story.

No doubt he is a strange unit and he is going to get someone killed by sticking to his 'new ways'. It worked for Eastman because he was alone and just surviving. Morgan is with a group and has just been attacked by savage 'Wolves'
