    Biggest downside of filming in Georgia is the constant swamp azz

      Terminus is indeed a pretty ominous name.
      Not Safe Haven or Nirvana or Sunny Meadows...
      I guess it's a trap.

      Just saw the ep with Tyreese and his group.
      Wow.
      Low on action, but high on drama. This was some serious sh**. Great writing on this one, just when there's a ray of hope, they all get hit wit some sledgehammer events.
      I didn't think they would end it like they did, but Walking Dead often has the guts to go where no TV show has gone before.

        Actually Terminus one of the first names for Atlanta. The railroad built a rail line there and that was the Terminus, or "end of line".

        So using that name isn't beyond the scope of the area, but I do think I would have picked a different name myself.

          Judging by the map, I currently live exactly where Terminus is located. If anyone ever wants to look me up, just follow the map and ask around for Darryl.

            Do you own a crossbow?

              I actually do, and all I've ever used it for is squirrel hunting.

                  Finding Tasha Yar working the grill at Terminus doesn't bode well. Even if the gardens are well tended. The gates are unlocked? Too squirrelly .... This ain't gonna end pretty.
                  Odd seeing Daryl as the weakest member of a group, and what happened to Beth?

                    I'm questioning exactly what was being grilled there myself.... Terminus doesn't feel right...

                      Those who arrive...survive? Seems to me there should be more than 1 un-armed person in the place. Gates unlocked? You're right to see red flags all over this folks. Still, if she's the only person there how's she gonna get the better of them? Poison? Drug them?

                      Maybe only Palitoy will get this but I also had a certain Logan's Run deja` vu to the trailer for the season finale`/next weeks episode. Don't know why and I doubt they would pay any homage to that series.

                        So we spent the back half of season 4 getting to Terminus and season 5 will be trying to get back out? . . . . . makes perfect sense . . . . . at this point you would think they would all have their guard up . . . no one is to be trusted and nothing is what it seems to be . . . . well other than the walkers, we can always count on them

                          I never knew Hills Have Eyes is loosely based on some early European accounts from the Great Famine of late middle ages. So, yeah, get ready.

                          It's different in the comic, so maybe they're merging this storyline with one of the groups in the subsequent parts which has more of a Lord Humongous vibe.

                          I still don't buy the logic. The way people acted in the middle ages is not how people would react today. That was the whole point to the Age of Enlightenment, but I guess Kirkman's logic is in a world of undead, science and reason go out the door. I would think though the last thing a person would want is meat of any kind. I've always assumed instinct would turn survivors into herbivores as a way to avoid contamination.

                            Terminus is definitely suspect. Makes me wonder if the previous visitors were being grilled up there. On a side note, did anyone notice the Day of the Dead Bub zombie in the tunnel? That was a nice touch.

                              I thought that looked like Bub, and they did seem to leave the camera on him a little longer like they did with the Scottish woman that was zombified and heading towards the prison at the end of the war. Although I hated that direction (that got worse IMHO) with the Romero movies, I liked the nod to Bub. Good catch, gummi. I wasnt sure until you made mention of it.

                                They've been cookin' critters up for some time. And what other way are they going to get protein now? Plus, they're all "contaminated" as it is, so eating meat would only cause the dangers it causes in the real world, from e-coli and the like.
