Ah man, not Coach Tyreese. He filled in for the strongfat black guy, and he was actually a really good character since he still had some of his morals.
I did find the whole "seeing dead people" bit to be a bit long, and I honestly can't remember what they were talking about, except for the first guy talking about him protecting the baby.
I hope we get another strongfat black guy though, that role cannot be filled by Chris Noah.
The hat on his grave was a very touching way to end the scene as well.
^ The good people (and Lizzie) all were saying "it's alright. Come home." The Govener was telling that he should have maned up along time ago. I agree though. The episode was alittle redondent. I get it. The good people (and Lizzie) are telling him to let go of his problems before death while the bad people are telling him that's it too late for that.
Props for getting Andrew Lincoln to do his normal voice for the radio announcer. I can never get enough of listening to him
I was thinking at the beginning that there were four black characters on a horror show and that is never a good sign. Apparently I have a nack for predicting what is going to happen.
First premiere that I did not really like. It was nice, but it lost me after the 17th "It's not your fault."
So now we have Maggie and Sasha are the last of their familys now. Seems too coincidental if you ask me.
I never like when we lose someone, but artistically, that episode was beautiful.
I LOVE the part where Lizzie and Micah are holding his arm, then BAM! It's Rick and them taking care of business.
Also, we could see Tyreese getting more and more pale, which is hard to do on a dark skinned black guy. A+++++ job by the makeup department.
What a lame (and longwinded) death for a guy who singlehandedly fought off a horde of zombies with just a hammer without getting a single scratch. The burial was nice though, and it was nice seeing the padre do his thang for the one last time. You know, before he threw his collar into the fire.
The second episode was a lot better. It was nice seeing pretty much everyone getting some screentime after such a long time. Still, what the hell was the deal with that Rick-fan at the end? He looked way too clean to be a survivor of a zombie apocalypse.
AH HE SAID IT
RICK SAID IT
SERIES OVER HE SAID IT.
Other than that, it was a cool little episode. Everyone got some screentime, we're all reminded that they're all not friends but care for each other like family, God's on their side when they're close to giving up and for some reason they didn't use the paper to help the fire burn.
Incidentally, I keep forgetting people are even in this group beyond Rick and DURYHHHHHHL. I mean when I saw Eugine I was just like "oh yeah" and the same with Noah.
Still this group needs that one optimistic guy like Louis from L4D to keep their spirits up when it's needed.

I had the same reaction when he did xD
Then I remembered when the series' producer said something about wanting to keep the series going all the way until season 12. There's only so much you can do to keep a series from going stale.

I'm still waiting for a harsh winter to be a plot point for a season.
I think it could work incredibly well if done right. Stronger characters could be ill and the surviving is left to the weaker characters, there could be a group trying to hunt them in the harsh weather.
I'm still waiting for more characters to bond, a lot of them are just together to survive, but I wouldn't mind seeing someone like Abe and Carl have to stick together for a small period of time, or Glenn and Noah. That's what I sort of liked about Season 4 (If I remember correctly) where Beth and Daryl had to stick together and other characters just had to stay together for survival but eventually bonded over it.

I love it when movies, shows, and games do that. It can be so goofy and silly when they do it, but when it happens, I'm happy.
As for keeping the series alive, I think that 12 seasons is a little too long of a goal. Most series get 3 or 4 seasons if thier lucky. If you know you can keep the fans happy, go for more. If not keep it small. Look at what happened with Spongebob and he's going on 10 seasons.

Anyone else have the grim thought about Judith in the winter? I've spent winters with babies before, and I know they don't take to cold all that well.

So many dead babies...
Carol is kinda scary. Why must she scare the kids?
Also, Carol's Cookies have a recipe:
Check it out.
I really hope they this doesn't end with someone going rampant on the inside and it's the reason they're overrun by zombies or something, I mean I get it's been 4/5 years since they've had civilisation, but fucking hell adjust to it, it's not like it was better off when you were fending for your life out there.
You know what would be interesting. A murder/serial killing, it could split up the groups quite well and bring some conflict into the fray which could lead to them being kicked out or the entire place falling apart.
I can't wait to see where this is all going. I just hope Aaron and Eric and good guys. I'm really loving their broship with Daryl.
As someone who has read the comics, I just can't wait to see how a lot of the future is going to play out on screen.
