       An Insult to Cops

       "Slabtown" is one of the worst episodes of the series, but I was
       especially mad that they portrayed most of the cops at Grady
       Memorial Hospital as rapists towards the female inhabitants.
       They should've just shown Dawn being a tyrant, and the cops
       divided into two groups: the rapists/bullies who supported Dawn,
       and the good ones who are trying to keep the hospital safe for
       everyone.

       I didn't think it was necessary either, but it was obvious it
       was done to add more drama to the arc, show that Beth was in a
       bad place. It really accomplished nothing other than to kill off
       Beth and that could've been done many other ways.

       If they had to go through the Grady Memorial arc, I thought they
       should've just let Beth decide to stay there and help the good
       people run it.   This way, Beth could get out from underneath
       Maggie's shadow, and do something that would've made Hershel
       proud.

       As a Beth hater I actually like this idea a lot. And it does
       sound like something she would do.
       Now here's another question, did we really need Noah? Yes or no?

       Noah was a klutz, but he was a good kid and he was eager to help
       the group.  Unfortunately, he died before he could prove to be
       of any use.
       So in the long run I guess my answer is no.

       Agreed. I like him but he was nothing more than a plot device to
       get Beth killed and introduce the wolves.
