Madison is the female version of Rick (when he's not being a wussy)

 

Travis' actor compared himself to Laurie on the after show of the episode in which he died. The Madison/Rick comparison is legit.

 

I think Daniel is like bizarro-Morgan and that is about the only other comparison I draw. I think they are doing a good job not repeating the other story. I'm interested to see how Nick, Strand, Madison, and Daniel evolve. I like the Ophelia and Alicia stories and some of the new characters too, especially Efraim. Jake played on "The Following" as creepy murderous twins and he is not like that at all on this show. I think Jake or Troy will die this season, maybe both. The new native American guy could make it a few seasons maybe/maybe not. I'm also wondering when the actresses from the snippet commercials from the past season of the main show come into play.

Yes, the women in the tunnels. It had been so long since I had seen Ophelia i didn't remember her at first either. The woman from the plane from last year is also alive but probably off the show for good in reality. The tunnel people will probably show up at some point this season.

They already had the guy from the tunnels, didn't they? I thought the guy who helped Travis and Nick break out of the army base in the first season was the main guy from those clips.

 

Speaking of that, I have absolutely no clue how that whole tunnel thing ended. The last couple episodes of the main series, I watched on the DVR. So I fast-forwarded right through them. The same exact thing happened with the whole plane thing for me.

Interesting. Were Morgan and Jesus fighting each other or just training? Hard to tell (and I only watched it once).

This show has seriously hit its stride. 2HS3 first 3 episodes:

 

1: Really good. A lot of intrigue.

2. Some pretty cool stuff. Not the best episode ever...a little slow....but set up the rest of the season

3. Last night. I thought it was really great. A lot of great characters and interplay and it is hard to 100% understand the motivations of any of them. All of the actors did a great job. Daniel, Strand, Madison, Walker, Lola, Efraim. All really well done. Really good episode IMO.

Yeah, I'm liking the start to the second half. A little slower paced than the first but it's still very good. Walker is a little hard to figure out though. One minute seems like he's going to be a good guy and the next he's back to his original self. We'll see how it progresses when they get back to the ranch.

Walker is interesting to me. At one point he is trying to do the right thing but at any sign of trouble he "lawyers up" and completely ignores the needs of anyone but his group. He uses the race card in a manner of speaking but if things turn in a positive way, he takes it back off the table. It will be interesting to see how his character plays out. I like the actor.

 

The interaction between 6 characters: Madison, Strand, Walker, Efraim, Lola, and Daniel is very complex. I really like it. I think I understand the underlying motivations of all of them but the ones I wonder about most are Walker as you state, Lola to an extent and ....actually.....Madison. Strand and Daniel seemed to have turned corners and I believe they truly have. Madison? Daniel seems worried about Strand betraying her but I'm starting to wonder if it might not end up the other way around somehow.

 

One place out of water but having guns and the other needing guns and having water is a little cheesy, but I don't care that much. It's about the characters in the end. I don't think the trading post is a great spot for the exchange though. Too many dangerous third parties. That is going to go south.

I just watched season 7. I didn't read back through the whole thread so I apologize if this was brought up already, but re: the people who live in the dump was there some explanation I missed, or am I simply supposed to believe they mostly forgot how to speak English since the apocalypse even though that hasn't happened to any of the other groups we've encountered?

It's pretty stupid. They didn't explain. Maybe they will do a back story in season 8. I'd prefer to see the dump spontaneously combust and get them out of the show because it was just dumb.

They're definitely cannon fodder, a nice simple way for the show to up the body count and to slightly balance out the war on 3 fronts that Negan would have to be fighting very soon.

I agree they will probably be a short term rival/ally/rival/ally but why the stupid language stuff. The junkyard setting was probably enough.

My guess is that all of the surviving politicians from DC wound up in that junkyard.

I'm finally caught up. I'm not sure how they're going to get 3 more episodes out of this season. The S pretty much hit the fan already and there's one crazy fight left.
