TWDTT 032 – Season 6a Review
Podcast: Play in new window | Download (Duration: 1:10:34 — 41.0MB) | Embed
In this episode of The Walking Dead Talk Through, we discuss the merits and demerits of the first half of season 6. We both agreed that the “Glenn thing” was done all kinds of wrong, and feel a little let down by our favorite show. However, there were plenty of high points this first half to outshine the negatives. Carol was our main winner for what was best about season 6a, but that shouldn’t be a surprise since we both love her so much. As our discussion played out, we both decided that this first half was full of peaks and valleys in the story, and we hope for so much more in the second half. Read More…

The season 6 mid-season finale is finally here with the 8th episode, “Start to Finish” and what a doozy! While perhaps not as strong as past mid-season finales, this episode ended on what appears to be another huge cliffhanger. The show begins and ends with poor Sam, who is not adapting to this new world as fast as his mother. After spending all of his time since the wolf attack upstairs, his first venture downstairs will be to walk through a huge herd of walkers wearing a guts poncho. Understandably, he is unsure of himself; and in his moment of uncertainty, he calls out for his mother. But that’s just the end! In this episode of TWDTT, we discuss all of the many other juicy/intense/crazy scenes in “Start to Finish.” Read More…

“Heads Up” is the 7th episode of season 6, and we are one episode away from the mid-season finale. This episode finds the hosts on opposite sides of the “dumpster escape” method of saving Glenn, but what we can both agree on is that we are happy he is alive! Neither of us wanted to lose Glenn, but one of us thinks what happened is just a little bit too far fetched. The folks in charge of The Walking Dead seem to have broken their own rules, and they need to get back on track. Read More…

“Always Accountable” brings us one episode closer to the mid-season finale. This week, we get to see what became of Daryl, Sasha, and Abraham as they lead the walker horde away from Alexandria. Well…most of it anyway. After accomplishing their mission, they run afoul of some new strangers; two of whom will be sorry later when Daryl catches up to them to retrieve his motorcycle and crossbow. Are these people part of Negan’s group, or some other threat? Read More…

“Now” is this week’s episode, and…well…all we can say is not every episode will knock it out of the park. Call us crazy, but for some reason, when it comes to our favorite TV show, that’s what we expect! The fifth installment of the sixth season appears to have left us all a bit grumbly. The ratings took a bit of a dip this week as well, but it’s hard to know if this is a result of last week’s episode of this one. Read More…
TWDTT 027 – Here’s Not Here (S6E4)

In this week’s episode of The Walking Dead, “Here’s Not Here” is an all about Morgan extravaganza. This latest installment of our favorite show picks up around the time that Rick, Michonne and Carl find him in the season 3 episode, “Clear”. This time, if it’s even possible, Morgan seems even crazier than the last time their paths crossed. Fortunately, Morgan stumbles upon the Cheesemaker, and his life is changed forever. Or so it seems right now. Read More…
TWDTT 026 – Thank You (S6E3)
Podcast: Play in new window | Download (Duration: 1:35:41 — 55.4MB) | Embed
Season 6 episode 3 should have been called “Murphy’s Law” instead of “Thank You” because in this episode, if it could go wrong, it did. For the first time in a long time, we see our main characters with frightened looks on their faces, and we are left with so many many questions. First among them: WTH happened to Glenn?! Which is followed by the equally important question: What will happen to Rick?? We hope these questions will be answered next week, but have a sneaky suspicion that we will have to wait until the episode after the next episode. Read More…
TWDTT 025 – JSS (S6E2)

After a somewhat slower start for some fans, this second episode kicked season 6 into high gear with some non-stop action, and all in the time it takes to bake a casserole! Walkers are not the main danger in “JSS”, that honor goes to perhaps the craziest group of people on the show yet. The Wolves don’t seem to be killing to conquer or killing for food, but rather just for the fun of it. How long will Morgan survive in this kill or be killed world, and what put him on his path of non-lethal violence? Read More…

Watching The Walking Dead is like slipping on your favorite pair of comfy pants, it feels just right. And while we enjoyed the companion show Fear the Walking Dead, it will be a long, long time before that show can even think of replacing its big brother. “First Time Again” marked the newest beginning in a string of strong season openers for our favorite show about the zombie-pocalypse.

Just in time to get you ready for tonight’s episode, here is our season 6 preview! If you noticed a couple of new voices on this episode, well, you’re not hearing things.

If you believe all the posters and trailers, then you might think that Rick and Morgan will be at odds this season, but we think that is a red herring. Read More…
