Dumb question,

But when Morgan dumped the knocked-out scavengers into the car, did he honk on the horn to attract nearby walkers in hopes that they'd pin them to the car?

Lennie James explained on Talking Dead that it was to make sure it was safe to leave them there, he honked the horn to check for Walkers in the area.

Ah, ok. Damn, I gave Morgan props for the excellent strategy. Lure walkers to the secured car with those two assholes in there, keep them pinned in, it would have taken them forever to get out.

This is so good. Please tell me there is one for each episode so that I can go back and read.

Edit: Nvm, there is, found it. Great.

They're
Aaron's rejected "recuits" that were exhiled from Alexandria. One of the "W" zombies was a female that Aaron talked about. Two of the others were the group that attacked Morgan.
But that doesn't explain one zombie Rick and company came across while still outside the walls.
Going to back to this, was this specifically mentioned in the show? Cos if so, I totally missed that.

Why are there all these "cults" and groups of psychopaths? I thought the human race would need eachother and help eachother

Well, the probable reality is most survivors would be isolated individuals or groups similar to Rick's whether traveling or hunkered down. They'd be a combination of practical, suspicious, selfish, and prepared for violence to the point where many would be aggressors. Modern day gangs probably make for a model for how things would work, and they operate up and down the moral spectrum too.

But that wouldn't make good television necessarily. Throwing in cannibals, cults, and crazy people makes things a lot more interesting as it means you get to explore more themes and scenarios.

Catched up to it. Some strange stuff in the episode (glenn teleporting, Rick coming in while it's getting dark) but i said DAMN out loud at the final scene.

Morgan is going to give Rick fire for going raw and killing Pete but next season he is going to see his mistake not going raw on the two wolve guys because they surely are going to kill a bunch of "good" people in Alexandria.
 
When society and the rule of law breaks down, people's raw, animalistic nature comes to the surface.
If that was really true we never would have created society and civilization. There will always be roving bands of the opportunistic morally corrupt, but the majority of people will work together for the common good.

yep, Morgan's whole all life is precious thing is going to come to a head when the people he let go start killin his buds.

Late to the party. But I really enjoyed that Season Finale. Judging from the screenshots though it did a great job staying true to the comic in execution so that might explain it.

The only issue I had was with the Gate scene logically. I think guard should have at least closed it himself and then Gabriel reopens it.

I actually like how this has set up things much better than previous seasons.

Season 1 ended with the group fleeing the CDC and Atlanta going into the countryside.

Season 2 ended with the group fleeing the farm and wandering in the countryside

Season 3 ended with the group repulsing the Governor from the Prison and annexing Woodbury citizens

Season 4 ended with the group imprisoned by Gareth's Terminus Cannibals.

Season 5 ends with the group established at Alexandria and Rick being proven right.

I suppose it could be somewhat reminiscent of Season 3's ending. But I think most considered that a disappointment because it seemed that the writers held back the Governor's real attack until mid-Season 4.

This episode sort of was big payoff for both all the Morgan teases we were getting through the Season as well as all Rick has been put through. Rick was feeling almost abandoned by everyone except Carol at one point (and even her allegiance is probably not one he holds too dear given she's kind of gone a bit too sociopathic), told by nearly everyone that he was too out of control, which was perhaps slightly true. But in the end he was proven right, thanks to Pete being the porchdick he truly was, plus whatever confession Glenn will drag out of Nicholas for his treachery as well as Gabriel's likely repentance.

I feel sad for Deanna that she had to lose both her son and husband, but sadly it took losing her own world to realize that the rest of the world was gone and could not be reconciled with whatever her vision was which held Rick back.


So overall, Season 5 was definitely an improvement, only held back by the utterly pointless Hospital/Beth/Noah arcs which led nowhere other than to kill off characters for real stupid reasons, in addition to weird pacing in the first half of the season.

The Wrap - ‘Walking Dead’ Creator Teases Season 6: Rick-Morgan Reunion, Possible Major Character Death (Video)

“Having Rick and Morgan together, finally, again is a huge deal, and it’s definitely going to be a big part of Season 6,” Kirkman said.

“Now it’s a very different Rick and a very different Morgan who are going to have a completely different relationship,” he added. “And it’s the questions of how they’re going to interact, how they’re going to work together — if they’re going to work together — and what comes from those interactions is going to be basically the spine of season six

Regardless of whether Glenn makes it past Season 6, Kirkman and Collier are both fairly confident that “The Walking Dead” is a series that could live on for years to come.

“This isn’t the kind of show where the creative team is going to say, ‘It’s important to us that we end it here,'” Kirkman said. “The story that we’re trying to tell is so big, and the framework is set in the comics — I’m producing more than 12 issues a year. All of that stuff is stuff that we would like to someday adapt into the show.”

“Our longterm goal was to tell this unrealistically massive huge story, so by going season after season after season, we actually are maintaining the integrity of what we originally set out to do,” Kirkman added. “So I think there’s a possibility to go for many, many years

Collier concurred.

“I do think the evolution of this story and how fresh it becomes, and how real it is … and relatable, makes it something that can go for a long while,” the AMC president said.

Wasn't supernatural written originally to naturally finish after Season 5?

That's where I left it anyway. Felt such a good ending I never returned

Question: Can you tell us anything about Season 6 of The Walking Dead? — Jabari

Ausiello: Yup. If the recurring character of Delvin turns out to be half as cool as his casting notice makes him out to be, I have a new hero (and you likely do, too). According to the breakdown for the role, the twentysomething African-American cynic is left so dumbfounded by displays of stupidity that it’s nearly impossible for him to admit that he thinks, down deep, people are — or at least can be — decent. Even if they’re idiots. (I love him already.)

Nice.

For anyone that lives in Michigan, a buttload of TWD cast members will be at Motor City Comic Con next month

https://www.motorcitycomiccon.com/media-guests/

I'd go, but that shit is gonna cost me a lot of money

Eh, I went to Walker Stalker Con in SF a few months ago, it was OK, but the actors charge a ridiculous amount for an autograph, let alone a selfie with them. I did get to hi five herschel though, that was awesome.
 
What i want to know is if Alexandra Breckenridge will be upped to regular?
I didn't see news about it, but when she was cast they said that she has an option to become a regular in season 6.

Sorry if posted elsewhere. Chad L Coleman goes nuts on subway: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mYEpHnoW7nw&app=desktop
A bit more context

Coleman told TMZ he overheard another passenger refer to him by the n-word, as the man was trying to figure out where he knew Coleman.

Coleman also told TMZ his comments about humanity were about the ongoing protests in Baltimore in the wake of the death of Freddie Gray – what prosecutors there have called the "grossly negligent" death of a shackled black man while in custody.

rip reputation I say. I know he is in the right with what he said but it might still shed some bad light on him in the long run.
