Sooo true. The show is also better when they are on the road. Getting stuck in the farm and later in the jail sucked the life out of the show.
But the show has flaws. I want to see more about the zombies..opps walkers beyond their current role. I want more talk about walked happened. So far not one convo about why the f dead people r coming back. They dont even speculate.

I'd like to hear more about the "hearding" when they all seem to be headed in the same direction. it would be cool to find out that they are all connected somehow. like the BORG!

Actually that was explained in "scientific" detail the first season, or maybe it was the second, anyway when they were at the CDC.

Actually I do not see any "messages" but rather an existential drama in the sort of the same tradition of Camus' the Plague: how humans caught in a catastrophic situation survive day in day out. In this case it is extremely dark no matter what they try to do make their lives better more and more of characters end up dying either at the hands of the zombies or fellow humans.

Saw a really good movie last night on netflix that i recomend to all. Called Last Days where people slowly start to stay inside their homes and offices and cant leave, they cant go outside. Takes place in Barcelona and is subtitled. Fantastic movie with great ending. Check it out.

The 1st season of this series was the best, mainly because the show's creator, Frank Darabont, was fired after the 1st season. It's been downhill for the WD ever since. I stopped watching it half way thru the 3rd season because of the bad writing and lack of interesting characters.
THE STRAIN is 10 times better.

It would appear that I may be in the minority here.
I did not find this episode all that interesting.
Before I watched it, I asked my self what could they do? Part of them were being held hostage, other parts of the group were making there way toward the hostage area.
So, the hostages could escape or not, one or more of the main characters could be killed or not and the group could get back together or not and that is exactly what happened along with the gruesome factor (not to spoil it for anyone that has not seen it yet).
From the teasers, and of course one has to take them for what they are worth, it would seem that they may be going for even more gruesomeness this season.
Maybe the writers will have some interesting story arcs and additional character development. Time will tell.
