I did not like the black and white flashbacks. This story could have been told in the present tense. One user stated they felt slapped in the face with the black and white flashbacks , I concur. I re-watched the episode ,and found myself skipping over the flashback scenes. The season premiere could have just picked up where we left off in season 5 that eventually led to the quarry episode. I predict the show will lose a lot of interest if they continue with the black and white flashbacks, doing this color change makes the past continuity seem unimportant.
The writer (Scott Gimple) said the walkers were coming back more threatening this season, I was expecting to see more agile/intelligent walkers like we saw in Season 1 - The very first zombie picks up a doll, one zombie is smashing a window with a brick, one climbs up on a tank, another jumps a fence, Morgan's zombified wife tries to open a door! and we don't see that anymore with the Walking dead. It boggles my mind how the writers find it so necessary to make the walkers so dumb. I was expecting to see some of this in the Season 6 premiere since so many fans have complained about it and Gimple stated the zombies would be the more threatening.
