I nearly turned it off during the rick/Daryl chase scene when the savoir dropped the hatch on the hummer with his fully loaded Light Machine gun. He must have fired 100+ shots from close range and couldn't hit anything of value. There was a scene where you could see rick's jeep get damaged, but that gun would have ripped that jeep apart. Also, once he pulls to the side with a steaming engine, daryl kills the gunner. Rick is somehow able to gas his bullet riddled jeep up to the saviors fully functional hummer with ease.

Shit writing is shit. Could have been a halfway decent scene.

I was more or less laughing at the 0% accuracy that the gunner had with a fully set up light machine gun while driving on what seemed to be a straight road.

Worst shot in History.

I will say i don't exactly have a frame of reference.... I've shot plenty of guns, but never a LMG while in the back of a moving truck. Maybe it's harder than I think.

I don't think it can be as hard as it was shown to be tbh. Dude had plenty of time lol. Like someone else said when it actually hit the jeep it should have decimated it

All in all I think I've enjoyed it but some things have annoyed me for sure.I think the writing could be better, like they could have utilized the guy from season 1 better than they did. They being him back to surprise us and he gets 5 mins of screen time. Even after Daryl shoots there isn't a slightly prolonged death sequence it's just done. He could have given Rick a "I told you so" expression. The machine gun scene could have been done better also

That was me, lol. That jeep would not have been functional after 5 bullets into the engine block.

Agreed. I feel like the TWD makers got roped into a CGI pet, which is something not all consistent with the type of show they set out to be. In contrast, GoT knew from the get-go that they were going to have to build in more of a budget every season for the dragons to grow.

I'm glad the show can move on from that CGI phase and just focus on effects like crafting interesting zombies and such.

Well the tiger was part of the comics so i would assume they expected to be doing it at some point as long as the show went on long enough.
