I wasn't surprised that he was lying, but I was surprised that they openly discussed the mullet!
But the other group members' claims that they would have befriended and protected him as a friend, even without the lie, were disingenuous. They've given all kinds of people the brushoff.
--- Quote ---Abraham looks like he's close to snapping. The fact that he was willing to try to put them through that massive horde was not good.

Well just think, he had pretty much snapped already until just then Eugene came along and gave him a sense of purpose. Now that's gone.
It wasn't until I watched Talking Dead that I understood that Abraham's family members had been raped by his friends and neighbors. That would be pretty demoralizing!
I liked that his girlfriend finally showed at least something of a personality. Tara's turning into a more appealing character, too.

Compared to those endless episodes of hanging around Hershell's farm chatting aimlessly? :P
By the way, Gil, the whole time you've been contributing to this thread I've been impressed that you're a fan of TWD, considering your pretty highbrow taste in films. :)

He was very serious and intense, though. Whereas Eugene turned out to be lighthearted and funny! Like Andrew Lincoln was last season. It's often surprising to see how different the actors on TD are from their characters on TWD.

I love TWD. It's my favourite show after American Horror Story.
As for my taste in film, is liking foreign films considered highbrow?

It's way further down on my list. But I'm hooked.

If it's not a superhero movie and not a rom-com and nothing explodes, it's highbrow in these parts. ;D :laugh:

Ok, being a Carol fan, I really liked the Carol-based episode last night.
I enjoyed the flashbacks for Carol, from her time being told to leave up to her actions at terminus. And now we know that she didn't allow herself to get 'save-napped', but was actually hurt.
The van scene freaked me out, and I hope that Carol and Daryl's bonding may help Carol and some of her behaviors.....like the fact that she was going to leave without saying anything.

The recappers have taken to calling the two of them Caryl. :laugh:
Since those two are my favorite characters, it was a fun episode for me. I don't think there are any two people on the show better equipped to spring Beth from the hospital.
