So T dying, was pointless because just like every other black person they kill they have no clue how to make them have a meaningful impact before there death. Its like they have them around for a long time, have them go through things and then its well someone has to die and it can't be ryck, carl, carol, michonne, glen or daryl.


T had alot of room to become a powerhouse the show needed, or the constant level head the show needed. Instead he dies randomly in a house helping someone that is brand new to the cast. His death would have meant alot more if he would have died earlier on or protect or retrieving the baby.

His acting was top tier this ep though, better than it has been since he joined.

I posted my post above and then read yours right after. You basically said what I said, but more simply. Yeah, they don't know how to give anyone any type of meaningful impact unless it's them getting bitten, and devoting some time on the episode for them to process the fact that they're gonna die. It's kind of weird. And yeah. They can't kill off any of the main crew, so the rest are kind of expendable. But I really think Tyrese had the potential to be a powerhouse, just like you said. Coleman is a great actor and you've already got a template for a strong Tyrese character in the comics. It's not rocket science. He can a male counterpart to Michonne in terms of "muscle" for the crew with a cool back story to go on top of it (NFL, etc.)

I think it was a mistake taking him out so early. If they really felt like the needed follow the T-Dog rule and kill a black character, Gabriel, Noah, and Sasha are all weaker characters, but Gabriel and Noah are both new to the show, so I guess they don't wanna kill them off yet? I don't know.

What kinda dumb nikka keeps zombie torsos stashed in the whip? You know what kinda damage blood and guts does to the upholstery? Armor All can't get that shyt out, brehs. fukk I look like pushing the new Bugatti same color Taylor Swift Grammy dress with the zombie color guts?:scusthov:How am I supposed to stunt on nikkas during All Star weekend when my suspensions all fukked up cause the zombie upper halves weighed my shyt down? I'm in the Aston eating donuts cause the whips too heavy to actually do donuts, my dude. Real nikkas stash the zombie torsos in public storage. It's only $1 for the first month. You can't beat those rates:why:That's cheaper than the wintergreen air fresheners you funna cop if you want a bytch to stay in the whip long enough to get her to the telly. It's the middle of winter in NY, fukk I look like riding around with all my windows down cause I gotta let the shyt air out?:scust:Xzibit couldn't pimp that ride out, brehs. You could put all the rims, flat screens, Playstations, and fish tanks you want up in that bytch, it wouldn't make no difference:camby:You now that nikka didn't even have a decent sound system in that bytch. What kind of insurance would a nikka have to get to even cover the liability of zombie torsos obstructing your vision? State Farm don't cover that shyt, brehs. fukk I look like paying out the ass for some exclusive comprehensive package cause I'm too lazy to drop the zombie chests off at the crib?:what:And why the hell did dude only keep the upper halves, doe? If it's one thing I know about human trafficking, buyers want the product already assembled:beli:fukk I look like spending more time putting together a zombie than I do putting together my IKEA furniture? Trust, there'd be some poor customer service rep getting cussed out if my zombie came in two different shipments. I never have to deal with this shyt when I use Amazon:snoop:

This was a weird episode. Usually a major character's death is built up over time but Tyreese's death just felt random as fukk. And even worse I wasn't all that bothered by it. Tyreese never really worked as a character in this show because they seemed totally incapable of transferring what made comic book Tyreese so interesting to the TV version.
The episode itself had some really good moments especially Tyreese's fevered hallucinations and I dug the creative way that this episode was filmed.

Was Tyrese Dr. Martin Luther weak ass nikka in the comics too? I hate these passive ass "take the high road" black male characters they depict on this show.

Just watched this shyt :snoop:

I see the walking dead still following sith rule of two when it comes to black men. No new nikka without getting rid of the old nikka :mjpls: Once I saw Lil Chris was on his own I knew it was the race to be the only black man in the group had started and since the preacher wasn't around it was on them two.

Tyrese lasted longer than he did in the comic book but was half as effective. He didn't even get michonne or carol. They turned dude into Mr.Nanny. Completely emasculated him. This dude got killed by 12 year old solid snake zombie because he stopped to look at pictures of people he dont know in a house hes never been in. They totally wasted him as a character. He saw everyone in them hallucinations except for the person he actually cared about. For a show where people die all the time they really don't know how to make you feel bad that a character died. Beth had like three scenes that were all boring and then they make her death the mid season cliff hanger. Now you have Tyrese who we really don't know anything about with "My daddy watched the news and I did to." So? Tyrese died and all I could say was damn..his daddy watched the news and he did too. Characters on this show are as deep as a puddle. We have no real connection to them.
My nikka Bob gave him that look in the car that you give your homie when y'all pull some chicks from the club who are about the shyts like :myman:


Michonne looking real dumb on some we can live here now. nikka what? :why: You think them walkers set that place on fire and killed all them people?
