Synopsis of 6×07: We find out Glenn’s fate! Honestly, do you care about anything else that happened? Rating: ★★★☆☆ Glenn’s alive!

The Walking Dead: Four Walls and a Roof Recap
The Walking Dead: Four Walls and a Roof (5×03) Synopsis: Bob returns to the church and Rick’s group clashes with the Hunters. Rating: ★★★☆☆ I’m still not sure how I feel about this episode. Nothing surprising happened, but it did move along the plot to get Eugene to Washington DC and we […]
