It was natural though. She shot pretty good in The Blues Brothers too. :)

Watched 2 Brady Bunch episodes, one of them where Otis from Andy Griffith Show was Santa Claus, and the other one where Mrs Cunningham from Happy Days was a doctor along with the father from Dennis The Menace.

I was underwhelmed with the finale of The Walking Dead. After a season highlighting a major build-up of conflict and arms the big showdown was a let down!
It feels like the writers got sloppy and rushed the finale. My biggest gripe this season has been the constant bad display of physical conflict between the two groups. The conflicts are awful. Characters stand out in the open and are not picked off, characters who appear to have firearm proficiency are rendered ineffective to support the plot, shooting of firearms in confined spaces with no effect on hearing. The weapons that have no kick and semi-autos that don't appear to cycle a round. Ugh..

We too in the household of Toe felt the same as you about the finale as well the scenes of conflict and yet I enjoyed the episode. At some point I realized that I enjoy the show for what it does bring and for the most part overlook what I perceive as flaws. They still do this apocalyptic thing better than what the other networks have done and are miles ahead in entertaing me.
:D

Of course you are right, we have to accept the bad with the good and suspend a certain part of belief when watching these programs.

Suspending belief in the world that is created is one thing, but plot holes large enough to drive a truck through is quite another. That's one of the frustrating things about the show, its well acted with great production values, but often there is some inane writing and horribly ignored obvious plot devices that are never utilized. Talk about not taking the low hanging fruit.

Funny, when I was growing up, we all wanted to be Tonto! He was just a lot cooler then the masked man. And a loyal friend.

Netflix has season one up but Fridays haircut and build kept changeing from episode to episode, so I did a little internet search and found out that the orig series ran from 51 to 59. Season one on netflix is a mix of these eight seasons.

Can't go wrong with Poirot. Why in the old days you had to wait for them to show it on PBS. Now you can just youtube it or watch it on Netflix. Much easier. :)
