Watching Dead - A Walking Dead Podcast - 605 – Now – Instant Take

Jim and A.Ron have some off the cuff thoughts and observations, an “Instant Take”, if you will, of episode 605 of The Walking Dead, “Now”. From manic city planning of hope, to entitled pantry raiding of despair, we have all of the emotional and factual angles covered as deep as one watch and 15 minutes will get us. We’ll be back Tuesday with our full coverage cast with loads more and tons of feedback. See you then!

Watching Dead - A Walking Dead Podcast - 604 – Here’s Not Here

Jim and A.Ron have had a few days to ponder the Morgan-centric episode of The Walking Dead, “Here’s Not Here”, and while it still suffers from some conceptual flaws and it’s unfortunate place in the meta-narrative, there is still a lot to like here… We discuss the finer points of goat milking, the zeal and desperation of the newly converted, the problems of an “all life is precious” worldview during a zombie apocalypse, ponder Eastman’s Goo-goo Cluster supply as well as his possible Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle connections, and consider a metric ton of feedback. See you next week!

Watching Dead - A Walking Dead Podcast - 604 – Here’s Not Here – Instant Take

Episode 604 of The Walking Dead, “Here’s Not Here”, seems like at least an above average episode, featuring superior acting from the two leads as well as a reasonably interesting and satisfying backstory to Morgan’s otherwise inexplicable “all life is precious” philosophy. But the problem is, Glen just got killed and Rick has one foot in the grave, the other on the doorstep of a crappy run down RV, and that has a way of making 90 minutes of good television seem tedious.  That’s our first impression, what’s yours?  Let us know using the links below, and we’ll regroup here Tuesday to sort it all out.
