All Things:AMC television

Yeah, I think this is my last chance for TWD. I've quit Arrow and it's very freeing. TWD is next if S7 is as manipulative as last season.

Felt that way after Dexter and True Blood. Yeah, it's a great feeling to just say...ENOUGH!!!!!! Don't think TWD is there yet. I think it's gonna be a fun season.
 
On the one hand, I give Walking Dead: Miami so much credit for killing that kid off screen, hitting the futility theme very hard, but I just don't buy Travis completely losing it to the degree he did. It is great to see a guy actually not pull back after beating the crap out of people he is very pissed off at, but Travis is not that guy. And the family being totally fine with killing the hotel guy who tried to kill Travis because that is how it is in the new zombie world is kind of exactly what the stupid kid was selling.

The problem with the show was that I grew to care less about most of the characters. Ofelia is probably the only one who gained at all, and she looked like she might have an interesting storyline, but if she (and Nick) just got captured by what turns out to be vigilante idiots protecting the border in a zombie apocalypse, ugh.

And as much as the zombies at Colonia magically multiplied after the head guy let them out, there is no reason the drug gang should not be able to fight them off. And how is there no other exit to that place anyway?

Bring back the girl from the airplane.

I am gonna have to disagree with the wild guess in the previous message. Maybe the dead son could have done that, but he is roadkill. Nick is an idiot but shows zero signs of evil.

But...Nick is also a manipulative junkie who has a weird zombie fetish and, as Strand said early on, an uncanny ability to get what he wants. And of course he shows no evil...YET. But, he did turn his back on his family because he said 'they are the monsters'. Come on man...it's all there.

BTW his convincing of the previous God figure to basically hand over the Colonia was a touch on the evil side.
 
He can get what he wants, but I haven't seen any indication he would use those skills for evil. He got the leader of Colonia to let the people go so he could save their lives from psycho drug dealers. And he went back to do it.

Also, we are two years earlier than Rick Grimes. I really wish they would have gone with my idea to split the original show, because the original show has too many characters I don't want to die, while this show...

Did Ofelia's dad definitely die in the fire? He was one of the best characters. And where was the boating gang that the girl from the airplane fell in with?
 
Season 3... you-know-who is actually alive. No body = No death. And we catch up with Ofelia's dad... because "It's a Twist!". Their boat was stolen way back in the first episode (?), so surely that was Airplane Lady, right?

I think I read that they might pick up where they left off with Ofelia's papa. Whether that means he's alive or not in the traditional sense.

Anyone happen to catch who captured Ofelia?

spoiler alert...Dayton Callie
