Time Warner has a channel where you can see past episodes.

Not sure who is dying in the first few episodes next season but badass Rick is back!

What could be worse than a post-apocalyptic hipster cannibal commune? They're lucky the shooting started before they had to listen to those assholes talk about how everything in the camp is made from reclaimed parts.

Even in the zombie apocalypse, the zombies are less annoying than hipsters.

Dozens and dozens of people died, but not so much as a scratch on anyone from "the group".
The Fonz is calling, it's for you, Rick.

It was good. I'm curious to see how the "this was a good place once" stated by Terminus Mary foreshadows the coming darkness of the group. They have all grown used to the brutality but still have managed to keep there souls, eg Glenn's "that's still who we are, it's gotta be" line in reference to releasing the other folks in the train cars, despite risk to themselves. He played Jiminey Cricket right there because Rick and the others seemed pretty ok with making a mad dash. It can't last.

I found the roundup scene disturbing as fuck. In a good cinematic way.

I was expecting the baby would end up with his neck broken. But I don't think the writers have the balls for it.

By the way, SyFy's show Z-Nation has some funny moments. It's worth a viewing.
You ever seen a cycling plumber who wrestles with small calves, forearms and neck? Didn't think so.

Also relevant to this issue is Tyreese refusing to cut the Terminus guy's throat even after all that happened, but then beating him to death out of simple rage.

Btw, where the hell does the group find enough food to feed Tyreese?

Did the head hipster (Garrett?) get killed? It seemed he was shot, but not clear to me that he was killed. (Rick had threatened to kill him with the hidden machete, but that never happened.)

No, and just for writing purposes, he doesn't say that and then have that scene not set.
One of the downsides of the Internet is that it allows like-minded people to form communities, and sometimes those communities are stupid.

I don't think we've seen the end of the Eichmann of Terminus.

I think the scientist with the cure is an IT guy who lied his way into an armed escort.
