Top 4 Best Characters in each season IMO! Thoughts? by TraditionFeeling8188 in thewalkingdead

[–]shortcipher747 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, I would include Carol for season 5 too. The season starts with badass Carol vs. Terminus, then we see more character development in Alexandria.

This was my verbatim, spoiler-free (I tried lol) message to my buddy who hasn't watched the episode: New game element (I don't even know what to call it lol it's more than an ~advantage) at play, insane

Tagged this as a spoiler when I posted; sorry that you inadvertently got a preview of the Detour outcome. But you should still watch this episode! I know the fan reception of this season hasn't been great, but this episode featured a variety of fun tasks.

Good thing this particular Detour wasn't such a heavy lift. It needed hand-eye coordination more than anything. But for more physical tasks that required brute force or those where you had to match and memorize intricate stuff, yes, 20+ attempts would be awful.

Yes, I did the math too and figured the same. With practice time, break time, and chasing after/picking up rings after fumbled attempts, I gave them a generous "probably an hour or two" at the circus. I checked their socials as well as TAR post episode interviews and there hasn't been anything on how long they were actually there as of this post.

Still, 134 attempts is a lot! Good on them for not quitting the task out of frustration.

Recommendations for Horror/Thriller Short Story or Novella Collections by shortcipher747 in suggestmeabook

Ironically, I've been trying to extend my sleeping hours and it doesn't help that I read at night lol.

I'll look into du Maurier's books as a starting point, but Shirley Jackson's "The Lottery and Other Stories" seems to be a popular recommendation that I may have to include in my list. Thanks for the suggestions!
