It's sadly obvious that they're setting Father Gabriel up to die come the end of the season.

Episode 1 was brilliant, episode 2 was **** and I agree very unrealistic, as if you wouldn't shoot Frankenstein in the head

I hope you're wrong about gabriel, I hate when they do that, make a character interesting all of a sudden just so people are upset when they kill them off

It's a major gripe of mine too, but annoyingly it happens all too often in TWD (and I guess quite a lot of shows. mainly TWD tho )

If they put effort into the characters that they weren't planning on killing a bit more, they might not have lost so many viewers along the way

Beta not getting killed was that classic horror movie trope; the psycho is KO on the floor but no one shoots him or hits him with a shovel or whatever to make sure he's really dead.

With Daryl and Alpha though, Alpha was also injured and bleeding out at the time and couldn't get across the building to where he was to finish him off. When she did eventually try to, she passed out (presumably from blood loss). Basically if Lydia hadn't patched Daryl up, and other Whisperers hadn't found Alpha and patched her up, they would both have died there on the floor... neither could really do anything at that point.

My real question is... how did tiny Lydia manage to move 200-pound Daryl out of there and off into the forest?? He would have been a completely dead weight... and while he was quite skinny back in S1, he's been packing on muscle since then! I think *I* would struggle to move him and I'm a 6'2 bloke . Lydia just lobs him over her shoulder and strolls out?

Wheel barrow?

Now I have an image of Lydia running through the trees with Daryl slumped in a wheelbarrow like a prize ham and that's even better . Was there a wheelbarrow or similar visible at any point though? With TV shows I've taken to deleting files after watching, so I can't check back .

Ohh I don't know, I might have to investigate that myself

Yeah I get the whole classic horror movie thing haha which I guess is fair enough considering it was Judith who had the gun, but still!

And with Alpha, I still believe she had ample opportunity to kill Daryl. Yeah she was badly hurt, but she could've followed the walkers towards him and just end it there and then.

I agree with you about Lydia, that was just silly.


Was this possibly the closest Daryl has came to death though?

p.s. it's time he cuts that ****ing hair. So impractical!

With Alpha I think the point was that she shouldn't be moving at all if she wants the best chance at surviving (and knew it), the only reason she does eventually move is because he taunts her by talking about Lydia, and she almost dies because of it.

I agree about Daryl's hair, he's the "pure survivalist" character of the show but he doesn't have his hair as short as possible? Doesn't make sense. Realistically he'd have a #1 all over... or if he did want it the way it is, he'd have it tied back in a tiny ponytail when "in the field" like his character in Death Stranding (the hair in that is the same as Daryl's when loose)



Applies to every character with long hair though really... makes no sense... zombies would be grabbing at it constantly so any character with long hair would have it tied up whenever they're outside the walls. Michonne's dreads make no sense at all! They'd be so easy to grab

Beta channeling ''slasher movie'' vibes

Ryan Hurst plays this character so well


Daryl being saved by Lydia


i call Gamma, now by her real name Mary feel sad how some are being brainwashed by Alpha (with help from Beta) to forget family

i kinda want a backstory for Beta cause i think

Spoiler:

he used to be a singer, since i saw a picture of him with guitar, cowboy hat with his friend, back at one of alpha's flashback when they had first met

For the love of god, no bottle episode for Beta please!

The fact we know nothing about him (apart from the fact he was in that rehabilitation centre I think) makes him all the more menacing and less human.

[Babayaro.]

Also, lmao @ no Eugene

[Babayaro.]

He should go back to his season 1 cut!

That was a bit rusty-scissors Crystal Meth chic... I'm sure they have electric clippers (probably even a barber) somewhere in the communities though, he could get it cut short properly!

[user104658]

Actually they MUST have a barber - look - someone's been giving Negan a slick undercut in his cell

[Niamh.]

I like the long hair but he needs to wash it more and tie it back when out n' about

[Babayaro.]

Speaking of bad hair...remember Carl's :/

Ah Carl, I spent pretty much all of his time in TWD hating him with such a passion, then I was just about starting to warm to him a teeny weeny bit..................and they kill him off

[Babayaro.]

Also, back to Daryl. Did you see how much blood he lost!! No chance Lydia could fix that.

If they're saying that an artery was hit, a tourniquet will stop the bleeding but it needs to be stopped properly and the tourniquet removed relatively quickly or he'll either die or lose the leg . He seems to have slept it off . A good nap, that'll fix it!

Oh also even if it wasn't an artery, he has a deep tissue injury from a dirty walker-killing knife and would get a very nasty infection very quickly if the wound isn't professionally cleaned + antibiotics straight away. Hopefully Lydia will wheelbarrow him to Alexandria or Hilltop at running pace...
