Okay but!

Maybe he survives. There is quite the controversy.

Haven't seen the episode; I watch when they stream a year later. But they have "killed" SO many characters then revealed later they were alive. I am confident in saying that if you didn't see his throat ripped out at length from multiple angles, the dude is alive.

Good point ;p

Keryx found some Walking Dead comic books at the library book sale. I guess it's every where.

Aliantha 10-27-2015 06:26 AM

Pretty sure he's dead. They showed walkers pulling his guts out, but I guess maybe the other guy might have been on top of him and Glenn will live because they don't realise he's there. That's my only hope.

DanaC 10-27-2015 06:27 AM

Ffs - stop with the details!!

Aliantha 10-27-2015 06:30 AM

I thought it had already Bern spoiled? I was just responding to clod. Calm down.

DanaC 10-27-2015 06:41 AM

You gave plot details - anything could have happened to Glen - all I knew was that apparently Glen appears to have died, but may not have. Now I have more details of that.

Please use spoiler tags for details of the major plot. I don't need to calm down - I'm not enraged. I was expressing mild frustration that I now have more spoilery details for this episode.

He does die in the comics, it's true.
But I have no idea how true the series has been to the comics, aside from the first two graphic novels that Dana lent me - where there were small differences. And a much later one I found in the library, but couldn't take out at the time as I had a fine on my card, but it was further on than I had watched at the time, so I was already warning myself in my head about maybe spoilers.

Been staying off the internet re series six for this reason. Even though I am the sort of person who opens Christmas presents early, birthday cards the day they arrive and snoops in people's bathroom cupboards. Usually everyone here is very good about spoilers, but a couple of slip-ups do not a flame war make.

I'm more upset at the idea Glenn is dead than the fact I read it here.
It was so good to see a Korean (or any other pan-Asian) character in a leading role where their race/ heritage forms absolutely no part of the storyline.

I don't look at this thread until I've seen the latest ep because I would expect there to be spoilers. What's the point of having the thread if you can't talk about the latest ep? Download it all free from cokeandpopcorn.ch .

Anyway, I guess I'll just fuck off again then.

Sundae 10-27-2015 08:26 AM

Don't fuck off you silly fucker.
We still love you and your hair completely.

Seems to me that after an episode has aired, spoiler alerts need not be given. If you read a thread about a show, you can expect discussion to cover what has occurred on that show in the past.

Sundae 10-27-2015 09:02 AM

Please remember that films and TV series take longer to reach us here though.
And it's not just the Brits - some people don't have access to the right channel, or have work/ family commitments on the date of airing.

We've discussed this before (Game of Thrones?)
I think there was a suggestion that we had an open thread and a no spoiler thread and then everyone realised that was just silly.
I think that was here, anyway.

I guess I can stay out of this thread. But I will continue to be careful about major shocks and plot points of things I do get to watch, and books, and anything that may change someone else's experience when watching or viewing if they knew about it in advance. Because although I like to know how other people think and feel about things, I don't need to know exactly what caused it.

And again, that is not a criticism of anyone on the Cellar. It's my POV.

glatt 10-27-2015 09:32 AM

Good point. I guess if we just discuss generalities and not specific plot points.

I dunno, media consumption is so weird now anyway. I'm like Clod. I'm years behind everyone else in the Walking Dead, so I don't care about spoilers here because I'll probably forget by the time I get around to that episode. I'll often wait for a show to be in its final season on the air before I start streaming it. That way, I can watch at my own pace and I'm not waiting for the next episode.

DanaC 10-27-2015 09:33 AM

I generally try to put spoilers in white text, or give a spoiler warning and leave a gap. Not for incidental stuff, but for major plot points. It isn't that plots can't be discussed - it's just nice to be able to have a discussion with different people all at different stages of watching without that spoiling it for those of us who are a little behind.

I may be 1 or 2 episodes behind and wanting to post about how awesome episode 2 was.

Don't take this stuff as more serious than it is Ali. 'ffs' and other expletives are just how I communicate, it doesn't indicate any real anger. I'm rarely more than mildly aggravated by a spoiler and then rarely for more than a few seconds.
