As a parent the parenting on TWD drives me absolutely bonkers. I would never let my kid out of arms reach during the fucking end of the world. Came here to say the exact same thing as you.
I feel like we see her try but it's just a super poor effort lol. Like I get it my feet are probably more hand-like (lol) than most, but cmon in a life or death situation you think she'd be able to figure out a better grip
So then, what would you have had her do differently when she was strapped in that chair, struggling to reach that screwdriver or whatnot tool, to free herself?
He actually did test it. Except it was Eugene who handed him a weapon for purpose of that test. Eugene probably expected Negan would want to test it, so he took initiative and the sample he provided was not tempered with.
flip a military vehicle in a relatively flat empty part of a field, then proceeding not to run away from the approaching zombie herd until one of them gets ripped in half
The commonwealth soldiers were written extremely poorly. Nobody is that dumb with a slow-moving, mindless enemy like the walkers. Just literally walk away and you're safe.
I mean, keeping your enemies close and breaking them down to the point where they're submissive to you is a pretty good plan. Much better than leaving them back at home and letting them plot against you.
Herschel, a 70-something old man and the group’s only doctor who was supposed to help Lori give birth imminently, going into the bowels of the prison to help clear walkers.
I don’t think it’s Hershel’s fault because how could he have known Lori was about to give birth in that moment? And Lori wasn’t dilated, so if Hershel was there he would’ve had to give her a C-section the same way Maggie did and she would’ve died regardless. I could be wrong but just my thoughts 🤷🏽♀️
I never understood that one. They could have easily and safely killed so many walkers at the prison by stabbing them through the fence. Then they’d literally have a dead walker barricade until they got around to disposing of the bodies.
god this has always pissed me off. whenever we see the people at the fences killing walkers they're always doing it so SLOW. like picking out each walker perfectly like they're at a fucking buffet instead of just getting it over it. I know everyone wants to think theyd be That Guy who's super badass and walkers dont bother em in the apocalypse but istg half the walker encounters in this series look so goddamn easy to deal with.
Yes! And for only TWO walkers, wasn't it? Couldn't he just have killed them? I know they were still relatively new at killing walkers, but he could have outwalked them with her. What was that - I had to draw them off?
I think it was because Alden isn’t really good with a bow, because you can see him kinda fumble around with an arrow like he was still a novice with it
I don’t know what was going through her head in that scene. I mean come on, the shoulder? It was practically suicide. Rick easily would have gotten their way leaving with Carol, Beth, and Noah.
Daryl getting up to punch Negan, leading to Glenn’s death. No hate on Daryl, I get that he was struggling with Rosita being taunted like that but c’mon man. You were warned and it was clear at this point Negan wasn’t someone to fuck with.
Carol's one of my favorite characters, so it pains me to write this, but running after Alpha into that cave, when she had no idea what could be waiting for her inside, still baffles me.
Rick in season 8 going back to the trash people, who had already betrayed him once and helped Negan kill some of his people in season 7. He went back to them BY HIMSELF to recruit their help against the saviors only to be IMMEDIATELY captured and stripped down. They were going to kill him but he miraculously turned the tables on them through the powers of writing. The trash people join Rick and follow him to the sanctuary and once they realized that the saviors had escaped....they then IMMEDIATELY turn on Rick again and abandon him....you know...I saw a post on here yesterday saying"I don't understand why season 8 is so hated".
Anytime a character had the option to just shoot the villain Indiana Jones style and end the conflict then and there, but chose to keep talking with them instead or letting them flee.
everytime they have a chance to easily kill walkers cause they're trapped but dont, and then those walkers end up getting loose. the place where noah and deana's son die. they could have killed those walkers that were locked up. glen should have known better.
The kid that tried to free the horse and got bit from Hilltop. You knew that Walker was the closest. Kill the Walker on your way to the horse and then free the thing. Also, then you won’t get bit.
Anyone choosing to be with the Whisperers. I think that idea works better in comics because it looked so damn stupid seeing that lifestyle on screen. Who in their right mind would EVER want to join something like that.
Every character that tries to break into sanctuary. Carl only lives because Negan backed him, because Carl didn’t shoot him btw. Sasha got herself caught. Tbf I don’t think Jesus got caught, but he should’ve. That place was a fortress.
Climbing down into a well with a bloated zombie in an attempt to...remove the zombie and then drink the water?? Literally ignoring it and doing nothing at all would’ve been a better idea.
like, idk I understand he was angry etc but what the fuck was he even thinking. Either he would just hit him once then he would be dead (unlucky4glenn) or even if he miraculously killed negan (idk how tho) there would be still like 100 fully armed men. There is literally no win situation
Dawn wants to take Noah back and Rick is like ye no worries I did just cripple and kill one of your officers but I'll bow to you now like a bitch this makes no sense
Not a single character but that scene where they try to get a carriage over the glass floor of a museum was so ridiculous it turned me off the series for years.
Season 2 when lori leaves to try and find rick as if he needed any help from her. Only to hit a walker and crash and getting shane to find her. And asking daryl for help before hand even though she never helped him once lmao
This kind of conversations, while you are living in a zombie apocalypse for over 15 years, with millions of zombies and hundreds of enemies hunting you:
I mean woodbury was the first community and only Andrea trusted them, michonne didn’t from second 1 and no one else had a chance to make an impression cause michonne told everyone “they’re fucked up”. Similar situation with Grady memorial hospital, but not even Beth from the very start trusted them. Terminus was also the exact opposite of trust, they went in through the back and buried weapons on the border, then immediately went hostile when Rick was seeing his peoples stuff carried by the people there. And they were very standoffish of Alexandria for a long time, ricks first instinct was to punch Aaron in the face when he told them about a community
Beth stabbing the cop lady (dawn I think) in the arm when she had a gun... I mean she could have killed her and survived if she picked to stab her.. I don't know... anywhere that actually kills people. Most stupid thing of the whole show
Leaving a child to play in the mud unattended during a zombie apocalypse outside walls
Lmfao, this one is really tough
As a parent the parenting on TWD drives me absolutely bonkers. I would never let my kid out of arms reach during the fucking end of the world. Came here to say the exact same thing as you.
When was this? I’ve seen 11.5 seasons of bad horror genre decisions & they’re all running together
How was she supposed to know there would be a walker under the freaking mud ?
Funny I’m literally about to be on this episode soon in my 4th rewatch 😂 shit pisses me off man
Andrea not freeing herself when she was trapped in a room with Milton.
I feel like we see her try but it's just a super poor effort lol. Like I get it my feet are probably more hand-like (lol) than most, but cmon in a life or death situation you think she'd be able to figure out a better grip
not only would it have been incredibly easy to pick up those pliers with her feet, but milton could have just as easily tied himself to something.
Or Andrea not killing The Governor when he was sleeping 🙄
So then, what would you have had her do differently when she was strapped in that chair, struggling to reach that screwdriver or whatnot tool, to free herself?
Trusting the smartest guy from the enemy group to create all of your ammunition and expecting him to be fully compliant
He actually did test it. Except it was Eugene who handed him a weapon for purpose of that test. Eugene probably expected Negan would want to test it, so he took initiative and the sample he provided was not tempered with.
Not only that, but not testing/using any of that ammunition at all up to that point.
Honestly? Negan might have just been ignorant. I don’t know much about guns and I didn’t know you could rig ammo to blow. Negan might not have either.
Also, Negan expecting people not to turn on him when he rules with fear. That never works, you’ll never have loyalty that way
flip a military vehicle in a relatively flat empty part of a field, then proceeding not to run away from the approaching zombie herd until one of them gets ripped in half
The commonwealth troopers are the biggest npcs in the whole show
The commonwealth soldiers were written extremely poorly. Nobody is that dumb with a slow-moving, mindless enemy like the walkers. Just literally walk away and you're safe.
Nicholas doing Nicholas things
"Thank you"
Im still upset glenn didnt curbstomp that idiot
Every character that died instead of crawling under dumpsters
everyone should just carry a mini dumpster with them just in case
I love how they go from the walkers who can’t figure out dumpsters to walkers who can climb walls and use rocks to break open windows.
Negan's arrogance in All Out War. Dude tried to recruit every person he knew had a personal vendetta against him (Daryl, Dwight, Sasha, etc).
Negan was up his own arse so much when he led the saviours. Dude legit power-tripped beyond all his morals
I mean, keeping your enemies close and breaking them down to the point where they're submissive to you is a pretty good plan. Much better than leaving them back at home and letting them plot against you.
lmbo. Dude was arrogant overconfident about many things, until his Saviors were taken down.
Carl killing 3-4 Saviors but passing on a clear kill shot on Negan from 6’
Pushing yourself out of a rotating door and getting your “friend” killed
And then shooting yourself in the head on a dumpster surrounded by walkers, risking the life of a fellow survivor AGAIN
Dude I saw a clip of that on YouTube the other day and I literally cried. I miss Noah so damn much 😭😭😭
Who did this?
Herschel, a 70-something old man and the group’s only doctor who was supposed to help Lori give birth imminently, going into the bowels of the prison to help clear walkers.
I don’t think it’s Hershel’s fault because how could he have known Lori was about to give birth in that moment? And Lori wasn’t dilated, so if Hershel was there he would’ve had to give her a C-section the same way Maggie did and she would’ve died regardless. I could be wrong but just my thoughts 🤷🏽♀️
All of them… not. killing. zombies.
I never understood that one. They could have easily and safely killed so many walkers at the prison by stabbing them through the fence. Then they’d literally have a dead walker barricade until they got around to disposing of the bodies.
god this has always pissed me off. whenever we see the people at the fences killing walkers they're always doing it so SLOW. like picking out each walker perfectly like they're at a fucking buffet instead of just getting it over it. I know everyone wants to think theyd be That Guy who's super badass and walkers dont bother em in the apocalypse but istg half the walker encounters in this series look so goddamn easy to deal with.
They was gathering up to fast they don’t have enough man power to take them all down
Rick telling Sophie to hide instead of keeping her close to him
And then giving an 8 year old complex directions such as "keep the sun over your left shoulder and head that way".
Ain't no way she was surviving season 2 zombies
I think the argument being if if shit hit the creek than they would both end up dying , which is why the split. I don’t agree with it but hey 🤷
Yes! And for only TWO walkers, wasn't it? Couldn't he just have killed them? I know they were still relatively new at killing walkers, but he could have outwalked them with her. What was that - I had to draw them off?
Dafuq bruh - you’re Rick Grimes!! You can’t handle two walkers about to tumble off a creek bank??
Rick had the sophomore slump in season 2
Morgan not killing that W guy with nasty ass teeth
Definitely. But he did end up saving Denise.
Having a gimp leg and being put on the team of runners and scavengers.
as a fellow gimp leg haver, if i was Noah there's no fucking way i would have agreed to that job assignment. Literally walker bait
Alden shooting walker Gamma with an arrow instead of Beta who has his back turned
Beta's plot armor redirected the arrow around him to hit Gamma instead
Also when Laura jumped on his back instead of smashing his head in while he was trying to kill Mary at the prison.
I think it was because Alden isn’t really good with a bow, because you can see him kinda fumble around with an arrow like he was still a novice with it
It’s not Alden’s fault, he was a C-list hero and Beta was a primary protagonist. The plot armour demanded Daryl be the one to kill him /s
He was probably aiming at Beta (like what Dwight said to Daryl about killing Denise by mistake) or Alden knew she wouldn't want to be a walker?
Glenn going into the well in season 2.
Literally. Even if they had safely removed the walker from the well, god knows how long it’s rotting flesh had festered in the water.
Stabbing the cop
With the 30 year old scissors your maths teacher gives out that hasn't cut anything properly since 1994
I don’t know what was going through her head in that scene. I mean come on, the shoulder? It was practically suicide. Rick easily would have gotten their way leaving with Carol, Beth, and Noah.
I thought she did that in order to save Noah.
Ooooh remind me the context of this one
I was like a tiny pair of scissors and it didn’t do anything to dawn, dawn already had her hand on her gun when Beth approached her stop blaming Beth
Anytime someone said lets split up to cover more ground.
This one but especially when they are running from lance and Leah, the trained killer whose only shot you have of winning is to overhaul her.
Glenn driving the challenger with the loud ass alarm all the way back to the camp lol
It did make for a cool montage tho
That alarm was echoing all over those hills, hard to pinpoint the source.
Any time people didn’t notice a hoard coming towards them until they were five feet away
Flipping a car on an empty, flat, wide-open road.
justlorithings
She was swerving to avoid a walker
Every character: not killed Negan when they had the chance
Amen.
I’m sorry but beth stabbing the cop lady was fucking ridiculous 😭
Daryl getting up to punch Negan, leading to Glenn’s death. No hate on Daryl, I get that he was struggling with Rosita being taunted like that but c’mon man. You were warned and it was clear at this point Negan wasn’t someone to fuck with.
Totally agree. Did he ever acknowledge that to anyone? I don't recall.
Negan was going to kill Glenn Regardless of the fact that Daryl punched him because Negan is a psychopath
Carol's one of my favorite characters, so it pains me to write this, but running after Alpha into that cave, when she had no idea what could be waiting for her inside, still baffles me.
Alpha made that trap so obvious it should be on the list too and really highlights how dumb move it was from Carol.
Was that when she was really sleep deprived?
This is #1 for me too, it really bugged me
Going out into the middle of a forest with a stranger to stab walkers in the head to “free their souls.”
who did that again?
Was this when Rick followed some crazy lady who had her dead husbands head in a bag or something?
Trusting trash goblin people to help you in a war. Yeah, looking at you Rick.
He was being so dumb they fucked him over multiple times 😭
Rick letting Negan get away in season 8 when he had him dead to rights.
Andrea trying to prove herself by shooting a walker that was actually Daryl. luckily she’s a bad shot and didn’t kill him.
Just Andrea in general.
Rick in season 8 going back to the trash people, who had already betrayed him once and helped Negan kill some of his people in season 7. He went back to them BY HIMSELF to recruit their help against the saviors only to be IMMEDIATELY captured and stripped down. They were going to kill him but he miraculously turned the tables on them through the powers of writing. The trash people join Rick and follow him to the sanctuary and once they realized that the saviors had escaped....they then IMMEDIATELY turn on Rick again and abandon him....you know...I saw a post on here yesterday saying"I don't understand why season 8 is so hated".
Lori turning a car over on a straight flat road
My guess is Travis unlocked the car with the little button then opened it from the outside it’s easier then reaching inside the car
Andrea not killing the Governor in his sleep when she had the chance.
That one guy calling Rositas bluff game with a bazooka.
Anytime a character had the option to just shoot the villain Indiana Jones style and end the conflict then and there, but chose to keep talking with them instead or letting them flee.
everytime they have a chance to easily kill walkers cause they're trapped but dont, and then those walkers end up getting loose. the place where noah and deana's son die. they could have killed those walkers that were locked up. glen should have known better.
Giving the type 1 diabetic insulin when she had low blood sugar.
Yeah it seems like no one in the TV world understands diabetes at all
That one cop trying to run away from Rick driving a car. Well didn't do stupid much longer.
Jumped from the roof of a truck to a drain pipe while holding a baby, and somehow didn't crush the baby or fall.
She was dead anyway and if she didn't jump then the baby would also have died
Lori..and everything she did in general..
Olive Oil was consistently off her square
I love the kids and all but choosing to be pregnant in a zombie apocalypse has to be one of the most stupidest decisions ever made.
When Dale (That old guy who taught Glenn how to fix cars) walked over in the dark without alerting anyone to investigate a dead cow
Beth stabbing that cop
Morgans “every life is precious” bullshit, it’s a apocalypse there will be bad people that can’t change, not every life is precious babe, grow up
What happened to Morgan? I swear he went to the dump and was never seen again
When Rick hit Negan in the face with the non-barbed wire end of Lucille. Like, bro...
Lol true
Not building tree houses. Until variants this would have solved pretty much everything.
Beth death
Carl playing with the zombie stuck in the mud, and I stand by this statement.
Keeping walkers locked up in the barn.
Everything Carter does.
T Dog turning his back to close the gate knowing zombies are everywhere
Fear The Walking Dead season 5: When Tom kept recording himself and didn't get off the collapsing bridge, despite everyone warning him.
This. This is the dumbest thing that any character has ever done in the entire Walking Dead universe.
Trying to stab a cop with a pair of scissors through a bullet proof vest
The kid that tried to free the horse and got bit from Hilltop. You knew that Walker was the closest. Kill the Walker on your way to the horse and then free the thing. Also, then you won’t get bit.
Anyone choosing to be with the Whisperers. I think that idea works better in comics because it looked so damn stupid seeing that lifestyle on screen. Who in their right mind would EVER want to join something like that.
Sasha commiting suicide just so her Walker version bit Negan, instead of doing it herself with the knife she already had.
I think Sasha was tired and ready to go.
Just about everything Andrea did
Every character that tries to break into sanctuary. Carl only lives because Negan backed him, because Carl didn’t shoot him btw. Sasha got herself caught. Tbf I don’t think Jesus got caught, but he should’ve. That place was a fortress.
Lori asking Glenn to get her some plan B after finding out she was pregnant.
Climbing down into a well with a bloated zombie in an attempt to...remove the zombie and then drink the water?? Literally ignoring it and doing nothing at all would’ve been a better idea.
Daryl attacking Negan after he killed Abraham :( .
like, idk I understand he was angry etc but what the fuck was he even thinking. Either he would just hit him once then he would be dead (unlucky4glenn) or even if he miraculously killed negan (idk how tho) there would be still like 100 fully armed men. There is literally no win situation
Maggie wasting a perfectly good egg.
It was rotten.
Pretty much anything Lori did as a mom
Pretty much anything Lori did ever.
Probably Lori flipping the car while going to look for Rick, hershel and Glenn
Leave their kids behind to look for Rick for years.
Gareth who eats the leg of bob, who’s was infected
Tainted meat 🥩
The guy who put down the spear to kill the Walker with a knife and was then surprised when the Walker grabbed and ate him
Dawn wants to take Noah back and Rick is like ye no worries I did just cripple and kill one of your officers but I'll bow to you now like a bitch this makes no sense
andrea shooting daryl, while she was trying to show off.
Maybe not really a character but basically
Pretty much everything Andrea ever said or did
T-Dog cutting his arm on the glass. Never been topped for sheer WTF of it all.
Daryl punching negan
The governor not accepting Rick’s offer of them sharing the prison
Maggie for letting the Guvnor go only for him to come back and kill her dad. "Didn't you see them hightail it out of here?" were her words
Almost everything in season 2
Does a group of characters falling into a cave count?
My absolute favorite example of mass stupidity, too dumb to even shout out a warning to those who hadn't fallen in yet.
Not a single character but that scene where they try to get a carriage over the glass floor of a museum was so ridiculous it turned me off the series for years.
Almost everything. The amount of times I screamed at my tv bc a character or group were acting dumb. I could be here all day typing it out lol.
Most of the things that Andrea did
Andrea and her constant virtue signaling
And questioning. And power poses.
The Alexandrians stealing weapons from Oceanside. Not only that, using explosions which undoubtedly attracts walkers.
i like the show but you could definitely point out one or two absolutely idiotic things every 8 episodes lol
Tina’s death
Try to kill hundreds of walkers with one gun and a gunshot wound while on a bridge with no back up.
Trying to act tough with Negan (resulting in another death) when you just saw the man kill Abraham with a bat.
Season 2 when lori leaves to try and find rick as if he needed any help from her. Only to hit a walker and crash and getting shane to find her. And asking daryl for help before hand even though she never helped him once lmao
"There's only one person who has to die. I will kill him myself, i will"
Crashing their car on an empty road. Not naming names…
This kind of conversations, while you are living in a zombie apocalypse for over 15 years, with millions of zombies and hundreds of enemies hunting you:
Trusting every community they come across......Almost all of them.
I mean woodbury was the first community and only Andrea trusted them, michonne didn’t from second 1 and no one else had a chance to make an impression cause michonne told everyone “they’re fucked up”. Similar situation with Grady memorial hospital, but not even Beth from the very start trusted them. Terminus was also the exact opposite of trust, they went in through the back and buried weapons on the border, then immediately went hostile when Rick was seeing his peoples stuff carried by the people there. And they were very standoffish of Alexandria for a long time, ricks first instinct was to punch Aaron in the face when he told them about a community
They never trusted any of them other than the commonwealth tho?
Alexandria was a perfect place .. I can’t remember anything bad about except for the man beating his wife
Go against rick
Rick trusting the scavengers to fight for them was definitely #1
anyone who chooses to have sex in the apocalypse
Pretty much everything Negan did in season 7 and 8
Carl saving Siddiq
Not hiding under a dumpster when they first saw Negan/
Not a main show example, but Tom recording himself and not getting off the collapsing bridge.
Honestly the entire crew waltzing into Terminus was the worst move of all.
Fuck their best friend’s wife.
To be fair it worked out quite well. Lori died and Judith's a little ass kicker.
[удалено]
Oof.
anything tara did
This one probably takes the cake
beth. that’s it that’s the moment
Henry going to the whisperers to find Lydia
Anything Lori did
Trusting each other
Beth stabbing the cop lady (dawn I think) in the arm when she had a gun... I mean she could have killed her and survived if she picked to stab her.. I don't know... anywhere that actually kills people. Most stupid thing of the whole show
Beth’s death
It was completely out of character, but Beth stabbing Dawn with a pair of scissors...
Sasha and Rosita fighting over who gets to kill negan and almost sabotaging Rick’s plan
Carl running into that door in 4x09
The governor killing Hershel!
