And so overdue. I never thought it was going to happen tbh.
There is no kind of person more loathsome than the one who lords it over you about just how more morally superior they are than you. And that was the whole point of *spoiler*'s character. Not to do any good... but to make everyone else feel morally inferior, and just sit there and stare at them whenever they had to do anything that actually saved the group because, gee, it's so much easier to pass judgement on people than actually help them.
Thumbs up to the new show-runners. This season is questionable, but getting rid of that horrible character earns the Phlegm Creepy 5-star Award.

the first half of the season was still unbearably horrible. i'm glad they've changed it for the better and i'm even more glad dale died in a slow and painful way.

Hey did that kid lead that walker back to camp somehow? I had to turn it when he was dicking around with it in the swamp like an idiot.
Should have thrown the idiot kid who apparently doesn't know the meaning of DO WHAT THE HELL I TELL YOU TO on top of Dale imo...

He didn't lead it back. He did inspire it to get itself unstuck though.
Not really his fault IMO. He'll probably blame himself for not killing it when he had a chance though.
That's exactly the sort of drama that is dragging the show down so I'm sure they'll go in that direction.

What the fuck dude. I didn't read the thread but its obvious who you're talking about. Why would you put that as your title? I can help clicking your douchebag thread but I can't help reading the title, now can I?

Was the kids fault imo, all he had to do was say, hey I saw a walker down by the river and everyone would have been more alert.
Zombie had mastery of stealth maxxed out though.

Yeah, I have really no strong like for any of the characters, they are all flawed. I guess that is what makes the show interesting for me.

So he walks up to the cow. No zombie.
He quickly looks at the cow.
He turns around.

It actually works into the storyline that the one person who stood completely on his moral principles and was essentially unchanged by the events died because of those same convictions.
The show is not about zombies. The show is about the breakdown of society and it's effects on the survivors.
Rick is changing and evolving (devolving?) as the situations require.
The old dude stood completely on principle and ended up as zombie poop.
There is a deeper meaning here people! We're through the rabbit hole!

Yeah I was kind of hoping that this is just showing the good parts of the characters waste away slowly until they are in ultra survival mode. Then they go around raping/pillaging.

I just can't believe that kid locked up in the shed got away when the Dale situation unfolded. Wonder if he's going to go back to his posse and tell them about the farm.

They didn't say whether or not that dude got away, but I thought it was likely he would.
They should have left that guy on the spikey fence, taken his guns and ammo and left. Rick is trying to be a good guy but he's an idiot sometimes.

The only moral question should have been whether or not he deserved one of your precious bullets before you left.
