Finally, an emotionally gripping episode of “The Walking Dead,” reminiscent of earlier episodes, when the show was good.

We, The Idiots, share our thoughts below in our 4th podcast.

****Podcast below, Nic and I do our best to have a semi-intelligent conversation about what we just watched, and a little about what was on last week because we took the week off.  Hopefully we get our sounds issues under control.  Live blog below the podcast, in case you are really bored.****

(FAKE DEER ALERT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

Well, Nic’s main complaint about the show continues to hold true…can we ever start off a show with some sort of freaking excitement.  Michonne and Rick, running around together, picking off a few walkers, rolling around in what I can only assume is a sweaty smelly mess full of B.O. and body hair (this is a reference to fornication and male/female bush, because apparently Nic had no idea what I was talking about).  Hopefully they killed those couple of Saviors they happened upon though.  But just to stick it to Nic, Kirkman didn’t let us see anything.

Commercial break, DVR doing its job…..

Rosita needs to be killed.  Her character, right now, is more annoying than Carol.  And that is pretty tough to pull off.  Rick and Michonne continue on their quest for guns, supplies, and fornication.  Kirkman continues to flaunt zombies in our face because, I guess, some people get off on those kind of visuals.

Commercial break…..

Rick and Michonne strike supply gold, Rosita continues on her mission to become the most hated Walking Dead character on the show.  Michonne starts the long slog of convincing Rick that he should be “The Governor” of the New World Order.  Rick predictably says he doesn’t want that life.  More fornication?  “Anyone for tennis, wouldn’t that be nice….”

Commercial break…..

Tara explains herself to Judith, who looks nothing like she used to.  Rick and Michonne score a bunch of guns, but only after Rick nearly gets himself killed scoping out a deer that he owes Michonne.  Why does he owe her the deer?  Maybe because Negan took that deer Michonne brought back one day, I am not really sure.  Rick puts down a deer to save himself from the zombies, but Michonne thinks it is Rick being devoured and nearly gets herself killed while she is in shock.  Cheesy imagery ensues, I felt like some classic 80s guitar should have come in…”You’ve got the touch…you’ve got the POWER!!!!!”

Commercial break…..

Michonne starts to falter in her resolve, realizing she could lose everything if they fight Negan.  Rick does his best William Wallace impression, living on your knees isn’t living.  The mole people need more guns in order fight with Rick and his group against Negan.  Broken 3 year-old english ensues, Rick and mole leader (Nic and I have come to an agreement that the mole people will now be referred to as “Dumpster Divers”) come to an agreement.  Rosita and Sasha agree to work together in order to kill Negan, but Sasha gets to take the shot.  They both understand they are claiming one-way tickets.  This entire dialogue/plan is ridiculously stupid to me.  Nothing like acting impulsively with very little chance of success, instead of helping the group acquire sufficient materials in order to accomplish the very thing you are setting out to do.

End show.  Were there only 4 commercial breaks?  Or did I miss something?
