I was wondering.. How do you guys think Rick and company would do if the zombies (ok walkers) were like the ones in the Dawn of the Dead remake. Personally, I think they would be screwed..

Everyone would be dead within an hour. Even Carol.

Spoiler

Okay, maybe not Carol, but certainly everyone else!

DALTON: How would you describe the season finale on Sunday?

I don’t know what I’m at liberty to tell you, but clearly like any good finale, certain things are brought to a head. But unlike a symphony, not much is brought to a resolution.

Spoiler

This sort of kills my hype for the finale. From what she says, it feels like it's gonna be a 90 minute episode of Cliffhangers'R'Us.

 

[~Kinggi~]

Hyped for tomorrow. I want shocks and awes

 

[DedValve]

Goddamn Shane, dude died way too early, would've love to his reaction to current Rick.

Seriously. I would have loved to see Shane get exiled, survive then show up right around now/next season (especially if next season keeps the comic arc).

Would have been something else.

 

[Konka]

Bring back Farmer Rick.

Spoiler

Outside of the herd attacking Alexandria in the final scene, I can't really think of what else could be left as a cliffhanger? Surely The Wolves/Scavengers won't be stretched out into next season...

Spoiler

I don't think the herd will even be considered at this point. And yeah, I fear that Peter Anderson will live into next season, Rick won't yet be named leader of Alexandria, and we'll only get a minor tease with the Wolves finally revealed but they'll be stretched into next season as the "new villains". I guess it shouldn't surprise us considering they teased us with their eventual arrival in pretty much every episode of the back half but I thought it would've made it that much more impactful if Rick and crew dispatched them instantly on sight. Don't wanna jump to conclusions yet of course but I'll definitely be going into this finale with a cautious sense of optimism now.

Yeah, all of that would be disappointing if true, but I can't imagine that (speculation)

nothing of importance will happen in a 90 minute finale episode.

[MisterHero]

90 minute episode? more like 45 with 45 minutes of commercials

 

[BlackGhost]

Bring back Farmer Rick.

Crazy guns on everyone Rick is better.

Let's not forget Rick in the early days of the prison

Ill never forget the small mushroom cloud in my mind caused by this.

[RPGCrazied]

Waiting for tomorrow is painful, and 90 minutes for this finale, series first? Yeah, am thinking a main character is going to die. I'm guessing Sasha or Carol.

If they kill Sasha I am going to be pissed. A part of me still hopes she will start carrying around a hammer later on.

I bet they kill Maggie and the preacher.

 

[Kevinroc]

I know it won't happen, but I'm hoping we see (comic spoilers)

Spoiler

The Saviors.

 

[AngmarsKing701]

My 15 year old son has been marathoning this show all week. He just hit s5e1. Fucking Tyrese is such a pussy.

 

[Kingpin Rogers]

Anyone else worried that Morgan won't be able to live up to the hype if he does return, especially if it's as a series regular. All too soon the intrigue and glamour will be gone and then you're left with just another character. I kind of think it would be better to keep the teases but never actually reach rick and co.

(Comic spoilers)

Spoiler

especially if tv Morgan has the same fate as comic Morgan.

 

[RatskyWatsky]

Season finale tonight!

Conquer

Spoiler

In the Season 5 finale, Daryl experiences trouble on a run. Meanwhile, Rick and his group continue to feel like outsiders in Alexandria, where trouble is creeping into the gates.

The episode was directed by Greg Nicotero and was written by Scott Gimple!

The guest stars on tonight's Talking Dead are:

Norman Reedus (Daryl)
Melissa McBride (Carol)
Scott Gimple (showrunner)
and a special surprise cast member!

Not so fast! Noah wasn't a surprise guest on the episode where he died. He was....scheduled!!!

 

[Sibylus]

Kill Carol and I will bathe in my own tears.

 

[Ipsoclipso]

Anyone else is wondering how will they treat

Spoiler

Carl getting shot? because as far as I know, Pete is the only doctor in town.

I'll try to stay positive and keep an open mind about whatever happens in the finale. I know the plot needs to be structured in particular way, especially since TWD does these two part seasons.

 

[Stat Flow]

Just watched last week's episode. Fuck Michonne. That scene was building so much in hype and then she just fucking ruined it. Rick the fucking GAWD. Ugh. Really deflated everything.

 

[~Kinggi~]

HOLY FUCK

I am glad you experienced this.

 

[Toa TAK]

Gimple is writing the finale? Pumped.

 

[seady]

I can't believe I started watching Season 1 little more than a week ago, and now catches up to this season finale.

 

[BBboy20]

[cacildo]

After this season ends ill create a thread asking which is the worst TWD episode of all

 

[Alpende]

Still from S4.

 

[BokehKing]

So comic fans will we or won't we

*comic spoiler*


(seriously no peeking)

Spoiler

see Carl get shot in the face tonight or the end of the first episode of next season

Honestly?

Spoiler

If darryl dies tonight I would need that 'bad ass' role filled by Morgan... Who knows with the kirkman-remix

 

[LaNaranja]

I thought this video was pretty neat. Apologies if it had been posted already. The Walking Dead (Zombieland Style).

 

[More_Badass]

Watching the S5 marathon and I'm surprised that none of the characters said something like "He's a person." when Dawn said she had a claim on Noah.

 

[Lakitu]

None of my favourite characters better die tonight.

You already took

Spoiler

Tyrese

from me. You won't take anybody else.

 

[Majestad]

Carol is bye bye tonight. This season she was one of the most important characters, saving Rick and co. from Terminus.

 

[More_Badass]

We're taking bets? I'd say Gabriel and Sasha are the most likely to die. They're not killing Daryl anytime soon. I could see Carol dying, but I hope not.

 

[Evolved1]

We're taking bets? I'd say Gabriel and Sasha are the most likely to die. They're not killing Daryl anytime soon. I could see Carol dying, but I hope not.

They cannot kill 66% of the significant black characters on the show.

They literally cannot do that.

They already killed Bob, Ty, and Noah. Killing Gabriel and Sasha would mean they had recently reduced the black cast by 80%.

They cannot.

 

[JCizzle]

Guessing Maggie. She was conveniently absent last episode.

 

[MisterHero]

Don't forget Oscar. It's okay if we forget Andrew though, he was a jerk.

 

[Evolved1]

Don't forget Oscar. It's okay if we forget Andrew though, he was a jerk.

I'm just saying recently... like this season.

 

[Pluto]

Guessing Maggie. She was conveniently absent last episode.

I hope it's Glenn, I like him but if someone from season 1 or 2 has to die I would miss him the least. Actually I would miss Rick the least but that's not going to happen.

 

[-MD-]

Sasha needs to go. Glenn can go too, I'd be happy either either one or both.

 

[Lakitu]

I wouldn't mind Sasha but not Glenn or Maggie.

 

[strafer]

You know, if they kill Rick I would just applaud them for having the balls.

And I would still watch the show.

 

[Alligatorjandro]

I bet nothing happens

 

[the_firewithin]

i want carol and sasha to go

 

[strafer]

or you know what, just let Carl go.

That will really mess Rick up.

 

[Evolved1]

Rick is the only reason I watch these days. Always liked him... TWD show, in my mind, is Rick's story.

He's the best actor on the show and has the most charisma on screen. It would be just pure boring shit if he left. imo.

 

[jerry113]

I predicted Daryl would've gotten the boot this season but he hasn't had a lot of big scenes in the past couple episodes.

The pattern on this show is that if a character other than Rick or Carl get a boost in screentime, they're probably about to get offed.

So I don't see Daryl dying this finale.
