In the beginning of the episode Jim is show digging holes in the ground. Dale asks about the holes and why Jim is doing this. Jim just ignores Dale. A few hours go by and Jim is still up there digging, so Dale and a few others go to talk to him. Jim gets angry and trys to attack Shane. Shane knocks him out. When Jim wakes up and is questioned about the holes, he says he can't remember why he was digging them. Turns out he was digging graves for all the people that die later in the episode. While the people did die in the books, Jim did not dig these holes. Just decide to make Jim psychic for a while? Wtf. Just another weird thing to add to this show. Speaking of weird things to add to this show: Latino Street gangs, Yes, they added that.
The plan was Glenn would run for the guns while Darrell waits in one alley and Rick and T-Dog wait in a different alley. While Glenn is running for the guns Darrell gets jumped by 3 gang members. Glenn returns to the alley as the fight is ending. Glenn gets dragged off by two gang members while Rick and T-Dog hold on to the third member.
The ridiculousness is already astounding but the more you think about it the more ridiculous it gets. Glenn got taken by two gang members who pulled him into their car. Yes their car. There working car that they drive through the city. Every shot of Atlanta that I have seen on this show has been infected everywhere. How are they driving through that? Also the gang has a hide out downtown. Infected are already everywhere downtown. Driving a junker car through downtown to the hide out seems like it would draw a lot of unwanted attention to an already obvious hiding spot. Just sayin.
After a very intense meeting with the gang leader, it becomes clear that the only way to get Glenn back is with brute force. Rick, Darrell and T-Dog comes up with a plan to take out the gang. I am excited for this. The Walking Dead is all about tension between people. The infected are just a background thing. Looming as a constant threat that rarely attacks. Rick and the others are in the hide out, guns are being pointed, tension is rising. Than an old lady walks into the room and asks whats going on. Are you ready for this? The gang is actually running a nursing home.
I'm dead serious. This happened. This is so out of left field I feel like the only reason that the writers did this was for shock value. Needless to say the blood bath I was waiting for did not happen. I am left very disappointed.
Now I would like to talk about some of the characters that have been added to this show. Who is T-Dog? Is he a new character or did they just change Tyrse's name and back story? They look very similar and act very similar. If they are the same person why change the name to T-Dog? I don't get it.
The show has too many new people for its own good. At the end of the episode the camp gets attacked by the infected. In the book Amy is the only person who dies. In the show so many people die. The thing is though, I don't know half of these people. Why should I even care that they got killed off? The Hank Hill person got killed off, but I already didn't like him. That black girl died. I don't even know her name so I really don't care. There were 5 graves and I could only name one of the dead people. Just to many people to remember. Also look at how Amy died.
She looks like she just wanted to get bit. She didn't even try to move!
Once again this show has failed to impress me. I am coming up on the season finally, I'm really hoping that it is good.
