By The Lady Cocotte Sometimes The Walking Dead gives us intimate episodes that take place on a single stage. At other times, like tonight, the family is dispersed across the Virginia landscape. There is only one safe haven: the Hilltop. But, to make it there alive, they’ll have to avoid Saviors and walkers along the […]
The Walking Dead: The Lost and the Plunderers
By The Lady Cocotte I’m curious to see how The Walking Dead numbers stack up against the Oscars. Season 8’s ratings haven’t been stellar but I can’t be the only one who chose Rick and Michonne over the Hollywood gala. Right? Last week was intense. Carl is gone. Rick and Michonne’s world will never be […]
The Walking Dead: Honor
By The Lady Cocotte First my vacation interrupted RuPaul’s Drag Race and now it’s getting in the way of The Walking Dead Season 8 mid-season premiere. The beach is great and all but this is getting ridiculous! I’ve been waiting 11 long weeks for tonight and here I am, hamstrung. So, instead of my usual […]
The Walking Dead: How It’s Gotta Be

The Alexandria, Hilltop and Kingdom alliance has been waging war on Negan for what feels like centuries. There have been some […]
The Walking Dead: Time For After
By The Lady Cocotte We’re one episode away from The Walking Dead mid-season finale and things aren’t looking good for the allies. The Scavengers have locked Rick in a shipping container. The Hilltop is full of prisoners. King Ezekiel is a broken man. And some of Rick’s closest friends no longer believe in his plan. […]
The Walking Dead: The King, The Widow and Rick
By The Lady Cocotte After taking a week off to deal with a cold that just won’t die (is this how the zombie apocalypse starts?), I’m back to recap this week’s episode of The Walking Dead. Rick, Michonne, Carol and Maggie use their own version of the Pony Express to share news of their wins […]
The Walking Dead: Some Guy
By The Lady Cocotte Things were going so well for The Walking Dead allies. They’d brought war right to Negan’s doorstep. They’d cleared scores of his outposts. They’d even taken numerous Savior captives. And they did it, as King Ezekiel loudly proclaimed, without losing a single soldier. But endless winning isn’t sustainable. First Aaron lost […]
