Just Look At The Flowers: LIW The Walking Dead Review

In this episode, Phoenix has to deal with yet another episode on a boat. But this time there's a twist! It's set on 3 different boats! Even when they are on land it's a boat on land. I shit you not. He also talks about how Alicia is finally becoming a decent character and how Chris needs to be put down (killed). Daniel is coming undone? Already? The only great character. Phoenix also asks his fema...

In this episode, Phoenix talks about how in all 4 episodes this season, a character or characters went to dry land while other stayed on the boat, had an experience that didn't matter on the land and then at the end of the episode came back to the boat. Well THIS episode threw a wrench in that because the experience on land wasn't an island and the side plot actually matters. Know what the worst g...

Holy shit I've done 50 of these. In this episode I talked about the title not really applying here, how 2 episodes in a row consisted of half the crew going to an island for the episode and then coming back to the boat at the end without much being accomplished, my wishes for possible show structure, my wishes for Chris' character, how the holy fuck that zombie got halfway in the sand and eaten by...

In this episode, Phoenix talks about how they kind of got off the boat for an episode. It still counts toward the 4 episode buffer zone he's giving this show to get off the goddamn boat. In this FTWD episode, our group joins Jonestown Steve Jobs and his family on an island which seems perfect but nobody seems to like except George. I don't know what they think is better thank this island. It's sec...

Season 2 of this show is where it can really turn great or shitty. Season 1 pretty much wrote itself so let's see something unexpected. Also, stop making all of your characters suck. Learn to write female characters. Stop being on a boat. Side note, decent show.

In this episode, Phoenix lays out what he thinks will happen in season 7. Originally he planned to do that at the end of episode 46 but he was sick and out of it. Deal with it. Instead he recorded this 10 minute rant about what is coming our way in season 7 of TWD. He also touches on how FTWD needs to prove itself with season 2.

In this episode, Phoenix talks about Negan and his 10 minute speech before beating someone... just someone. That's how they chose to end a season. Just a black screen with crunching sounds. He forgets to mention how he thinks next season will go so we will mention it now: first half of season 7 is working with Negan and plotting against him and the second half will be overthrowing him. That is abo...

In this episode, Phoenix is confused by the weird timeline of tracking Carol. It's not a major plot line but it was confusing nonetheless. He also talks about how Daryl is only important because of the fans and that might not be the best thing.

In this episode Phoenix breaks down the pointless character Denise and how she managed to stay fat despite constant food rationing and lack of sugary foods. He also discusses Carol and her ping-pong feelings toward the group in general. This was a good episode. Listen or die. Or both. Who cares.

In this episode, Phoenix predicted a boring bottle episode but what he got was an interesting bottle episode. This one is to save money. Don't fool yourself. Luckily for us, they made a good one out of it. An annoying redhead, a medieval monster, Michelle Rodriguez and a bullet magnet kidnap Carol and Maggie for a battle of annoying voices. Who will win? Probably our main characters. Just a guess....

In this episode, Phoenix talks about how much of this episodes reminded him of a Steven Seagal movie and somehow that isn't a bad thing. Somehow. Great episode that really ups the ante for the season. Possibly the best episode yet. Plus, zombie violence porn. Phoenix may never stop masturbating now.

In this episode, Phoenix has a raspy voice and talks into a lapel microphone because a friend is borrowing the sound mixer for an NBA podcast. He talks about the great casting on Gregory, why the group loves to abandon Alexandria without anyone to defend it, how the power situation is confusing in the Hilltop, how he forgot Greggory was a creepy dude, the continuing letdown of the Maggie-Glenn reu...

After the excitement from the last episode aren’t you ready for a break already? I know I sure aren’t. This episode features the arrival of Jesus, one of the better comic characters. Still no Negan though… Oh well. Ironically Negan’s arrival is like waiting for the second coming of Jesus. Wait, I just confused myself. At any rate, this one has some sex that Trump supporters wouldn’t approve of. Ph...

And we’re back from the pointless and ever popular mid-season break! TV used to be 24 episodes at 44 minutes each and they didn’t take a break halfway through. Now it’s 13-16 episodes a year and they have to take a goddamn break. Zombies must be exhausting work. Anyway, shit hits the fan in this episode and it’s awesome. This one sticks super close to the comics. How many useless characters will d...

How will the mid-season finale end? Not at all like Phoenix predicted it would. It ends much slower than he guessed which is amazing because he doesn't give the show much credit at all. Phoenix also again stresses how this episode was extremely preventable if they just cleaned out the zombies nonstop. When will these fictional characters listen to this podcast that they can't download because of a...

In this episode Phoenix finally gets validation on his wild claim that Glenn was alive. Also he complains about the show some more, mostly about how they don't have a duty at Alexandria in which people stab zombies in the head all day to keep their numbers down. Instead they just keep adding more to the inside of the walls which actually makes Alexandria smaller every single day. Figure it out, pe...

Daryl, Abraham and Sasha are finally back! Daryl's storyline is awesome but Sasha and Abraham just talk about being accountable and in control for too long. Plus we are introduced to new characters that are vague and not complex at all. Plus a random girl is pointlessly and lazily killed to serve the storyline! Yay! Good episode though. Seriously. www.loiteringinwonderland.com

In this episode Phoenix talks about his predictions from the 604 episode. He also talks about how this entire episode is compiled of different one-on-one conversations. Then he gets angry about a few things: why they don't just duct-tape a knife to a stick and kill zombies in shifts all day long until they are just gone, why Deanna is a melting pile of depression, why Ron is such a bitch, why Jess...

Spoilers be here. Right after Phoenix airs his complains about the Morgan character, what does he get? An entire fucking episode about Morgan having a bonding experience with an amazing actor that obviously won't live through the episode. Why does this show hate us? Phoenix also repeats his theory on the fate of Glenn which might have already been answered but he hasn't watched 605 yet despite it...

In this episode, Phoenix discusses the true value of Michonne (who is back by the way), What he would do sexually for the person that provided sock-eye salmon in the apocalypse, the bullshit lifestyle of the Whisperers, how invalid of an excuse of rape hurting is for Alpha, and how confusing it gets when all the main characters are all spread out in different places. Plus he tries to get you to go...

In this episode, Phoenix talks about how inaccurate of a title "Whispers Into Screams" is, at least for this particular chapter. It should be the title of chapter 24. Carl is officially a teenage pimp. Where is Michonne? Is it Claudette or Tammy? Why does she call Maggie a cunt? Find out all those answers in this episode. www.loiteringinwonderland.com

In this chapter, society is rebuilt and it's kinda awesome. Phoenix is confused by how much time has passed but he figures it out way too far into the show. Rick look like shit, Maggie has Hershel instead of Glenn as a child, Andrea is the same, Carl is seemingly 6 years older despite it only being less than 2 years later. Whatever. The timeline is confusing. Phoenix loves what they did with Magna...

In this one, Phoenix explains how much he hates waiting for his shows so that's why he binge watches/reads everything. This is part 2 of the war and he's glad that he didn't have to keep waiting to see how it ended since he had all the books stockpiled already. He loves Negan so much that it's hard to see it all come to an end. Phoenix also is terribly confused as to WHAT exactly spreads the virus...

Phoenix loves this chapter. More specifically he loves the concept of having/owning/needing "shitting pants" as Negan suggests. He again explains how bored he is watching Michonne bang people and then shut off afterward. He explains every aspect of the war that is happening here. He loves how Negan makes mistakes and isn't just a typical Bond villain. Then he goes into length to explain how stupid...

In this one Phoenix talks about how he's bored with Michonne's character in the comic but not in the show. In the comic if she isn't slicing off zombie heads, she is banging a dude without emotion over and over. He also loves the way Negan is written and how he isn't just another bullshit villain. He also goes into what he really thinks happened to the fate of a character in episode 603 of the TV...
