The Walking Dead "Claimed" Thoughts (Mild Spoilers)

The Walking Dead's 11th episode "Claimed" was definitely the show's best since it's epic midseason finale in which we saw the fall of The Governor. We finally get to me the foul mouthed Sgt. Abraham Ford and his companions Rosita and Eugene. Carl and Michonne got closer in a creepy house and Rick hid under a bed. All in all, it was a great episode here are some quick thoughts.

  • Great to see Michonne open up to someone, especially since she is attempting to help Carl.
  • The house that Michonne and Carl were gathering supplies from had some the worst paintings that I have ever seen. I mean serious who hangs paintings of an apple, a sunflower, and two bunnies on their walls? Nutjobs and Dan Lee that's who.
  • Abraham tells Glen and Tara what he and his partners are up too. Here's hoping they meet up with the rest of the group and follow Abraham's plan.
  • Can't wait for a Daryl and Abraham team up against a bunch of walkers. Brains flying left and right. Best from the show with the best from the comics.
  • What was the guy doing in the bathroom before Rick strangled him? He was sitting on a closed toilet. I guess he didn't want to have to strangle someone in order to find a bed to sleep on.
  • Rosita played by the lovely Christian Serratos once again proves everyone named Christian is beautiful. She has come a long way from being apple of Ned Bigby's eye on Ned's Declassified School Survival Guide. 
  •  Rick hiding under the bed while someone was being murdered, reminded me of Lucy Liu's story from Kill Bill Vol 1. Except they was no blood, and it wasn't animated, and wasn't Rick's parents being murdered. Actually nevermind.
  • WHERE WAS DARYL?!
Overall, I give this episode an  8.5/10, for a good mix of action and characterization, along with a heavy dose of Abraham. Next episode Sunday at 9 pm on AMC.
