Show notes

So, we got some clarity on a Big Event that happened Earlier This Season with tonight’s episode of The Walking Dead, “Heads up”…

Obviously that’s a lot to talk about, but we also have some moral philosophy debates between Morgan, Rick, Carol, and others, with Carol possibly getting some remorse for the way she’s rolled since infection ran wild in the prison. Should she? Michonne has some thoughts on Deanna’s “Barly == Intellect” plans, but we aren’t privy to them. Gabriel’s running a G.D. prayer circle out by the solar panels, and his faith is rewarded with… green balloons. What did you think? Use the links below to send them in and we might just read them on our full coverage cast Tuesday.

606 – Always Accountable Nov 17, 2015

Show notes

Jim and A.Ron want to hold someone “Always Accountable” for what is, on the surface, a serviceable enough episode of The Walking Dead, but becomes on reflection, a tedious seeming waste of time for us the viewers.

Daryl loses his bike and his ‘bow, Abraham gets some new threads and a new plan for life, and Sasha gets a walrus mustached possibly recovering death jockey for a boyfriend. Along the way, there’s forest fires, melted zombies, Cherokee roses, improbably diabetics, and a truck named Patty. All this and plenty of feedback, in a fairly dispirited podcast. We’ll hope for better this weekend, and either way, we’ll see you then.

606 – Always Accountable – Instant Take Nov 16, 2015

Show notes

Jim and A.Ron have seen episode 606, “Always Accountable” of The Walking Dead. Of that fact we are certain. We’re more fuzzy about the who, what and where of “Accountable”. But we’re crystal clear that the concept of Abraham possessing RPG’s is going to be pretty epic one of these days. I mean, look at what Carol did with a bottle rocket back at Terminus. Anyway, use the links below to get in touch and we’ll see you back here Tuesday for our full coverage podcast!

605 – Now Nov 10, 2015

Show notes

Jim and A.Ron are divided about their opinions on episode 605 of The Walking Dead, “Now”. One host thinks it was a basically good episode with a few peculiar TWD tics dragging the overall goodness down, while the other disliked the majority of the episode despite it having a few bright parts. Which host had which opinion may surprise you…

Along the way, we realize that Barley = Intellect, Maggie is in the family way, Aaron thinks way to highly of his given name, Deanna treats zombies like noisy apartment neighbors, Ron is probably up to something, and that The Walking Dead staff just loves to write “this is the world we live in” speeches almost as much as we hate hearing them. All this and a fully stocked pantry’s worth of emails that we plunder with shameless abandon, and even a bit of a spoiler section towards the end where we discuss some casting news and develop some themes and plotlines from the comics.

Jim and A.Ron have some off the cuff thoughts and observations, an “Instant Take”, if you will, of episode 605 of The Walking Dead, “Now”.

604 – Here’s Not Here Nov 03, 2015

Show notes

Jim and A.Ron have had a few days to ponder the Morgan-centric episode of The Walking Dead, “Here’s Not Here”, and while it still suffers from some conceptual flaws and it’s unfortunate place in the meta-narrative, there is still a lot to like here…

We discuss the finer points of goat milking, the zeal and desperation of the newly converted, the problems of an “all life is precious” worldview during a zombie apocalypse, ponder Eastman’s Goo-goo Cluster supply as well as his possible Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle connections, and consider a metric ton of feedback. See you next week!

604 – Here’s Not Here – Instant Take Nov 02, 2015

Show notes

Episode 604 of The Walking Dead, “Here’s Not Here”, seems like at least an above average episode, featuring superior acting from the two leads as well as a reasonably interesting and satisfying backstory to Morgan’s otherwise inexplicable “all life is precious” philosophy.

But the problem is, Glen just got killed and Rick has one foot in the grave, the other on the doorstep of a crappy run down RV, and that has a way of making 90 minutes of good television seem tedious. That’s our first impression, what’s yours? Let us know using the links below, and we’ll regroup here Tuesday to sort it all out.

603 – Thank You Oct 27, 2015

Show notes

So, if you’re not in the mood for a hate-cast on the fiasco of an episode that is The Walking Dead #603, “Thank You”, it might be wise to bail now, and we’ll see you next week. If you’re angry and confused and looking to tear into the guts of “Thank You” like a herd of hungry zombies — well friend, you’ve come to the right place…

Support Bald Move: Amazon | Club Bald Move

Jim and A.Ron rail against the frankly inexcusable and inexplicable jerking around The Walking Dead production team has been inflicting upon it’s audience for the last 48 hours. To say nothing of the strangely detached sense of geography and space, the tedious battle between the pragmatic veterans of Rick’s team and the naive idiots of Alexandria, the lazily crafted action sequences, the massive location oversights, the casual throwing away of of potentially interesting character arcs and developments just for shock value that they’ve been steadily undermining since the moment the episode finished airing. It’s infuriating. Hopefully, next week will be better, because, hey, Lennie James. See you then!

603 – “Thank You” – Instant Cast Oct 26, 2015

Show notes

Sorry for the delay, we’ve been experiencing technical difficulties with the website this evening, but! We did see episode 603 of The Walking Dead, “Thank You”, and have a lot of mixed feelings about it. It just, I dunno, feels unreal, doesn’t it? So, yeah, we talk about the Big Event that Happened, as well as the heartless nature of Michonne and Heath, whether the time and sense of place made any sense, and talk about Rick’s dire RV situation. Can’t wait to hear about what you all thought of it… hit us up at the links below and we’ll be back Tuesday for our full service podcast!

Show notes

Jim and A.Ron must confess that they continue to be impressed with the storytelling and action on The Walking Dead. This week we’re taking on episode 602, “JSS”…

Support Bald Move: Amazon | Club Bald Move

We discuss Carol’s upcoming cooking show, Enid’s torturous path towards her personal survival motto, Morgan’s incessant Morgalizing, Carl’s complicated feelings, and Jessie’s surprising emergence as a survivor. All this, ton’s of your feedback, and few fun surprises along the way.
