    Agreed. Love the show but there are pockets of excitement and long sprawls of shit episodes (like the Kingdom last Sunday). Yes I know they springboard into something else but damn...does it have to be so dull?

    And what the fuck is up with Carol? She used to be my favorite character as she changed the way a normal person would change (i.e. get darker) in this shit world. It's like the writers don't know what to do with her.

    She's next to go I think. Unfortunately.

    The episode when they got captured by the terminus folk was titled 'A' if that means anything...

    Per a quick google - the A was originally on the cattle car in Terminus and later the same group painted it on the side of the church to remind Rick's group that they were just cattle ready for slaughter...

    Per the same googleing - this is a nod at The Scarlet Letter but for TWD the A was for Alexandria as Sam was 'accepting' them in to the community

    Sounds like it is just an Easter Egg that they keep referencing with no real significance :notsure:

    I'm still wondering about the side effects of pure walker fed pork.

    I'm thinking feeding the pigs, walkers is going to taint the meat. Maybe? you know the old saying, you are what you eat.
    Not until they got the red handled machete, lol

    Ive been saying, if I was forced to grow a garden to feed the Saviors, that I would have everyone in my community crap in a bucket and use that to fertilize a special garden for the saviors, and hope ecoli kills them off.
    just a thought.

    The show does not seem to do things coincidently, I'm probably reading into it too much. You're probably correct regarding the 'easter egg'.

    My guess is that feeding the pigs walkers is doing nothing to taint the meat and sicken the Saviors. That didn't seem like it was the first time they did it, and I'd also guess that if the Saviors had a big meal of pork and then got sick they'd suspect something.

    I think it's just a slap in the face that the kingdom people think is funny just like the idea of growing a garden in poo...

    No one has died in this show universe from "tainted meat" so I doubt it will play any significance. Bob was bit and the cannibals ate him, didn't die. Nick in Fear ate off a dead dog carcass that had just been picked clean by a herd of walkers and he didn't die.

    You also don't eat the intestines/stomach contents of animals so really nothing to worry about. I know it's post apocalypse here but I'm sure they clean it a bit and cook it before they eat anyway...

    OME and worth every penny.
    China has used human waste as fertilizer forever, you get used to it.
    And as far as being dull at times, at least they're not showing them fishing all the time, which is what I would be doing.
