why did barlow kill walt's wife

how much money did the vampire diaries gross. First, can you tell us a little about your new series, Crossfire, on Britbox? Also, I cant remember details of the explanation of how exactly Martha died but maybe the payment was to kill Walt and Martha got in the way? [FAQ] What happened to branch on longmire? 4 min read. Please dont be stupid. In case you dont know already the people behind The Closer are the mostly the same people behind Longmire. Finale did not disappoint. redapple2 [b]shrummer[/b], Im sure some fans were disappointed but I like the natural way its developing and it would have been a bit much for Walt to say goodbye to Martha and getting together with Vic in the same show. Very moody and evocative musical selections on this program. But their bread/butter Duck Dynasty has plunged to 4 million. Ridges also then killed Beck for the same ass-covering reasons. Fair or not. August 5, 2014 @ I also wonder whether Walt receives this news in time to prevent him from killing Joseph Nighthorse. I dont have a Kindle (or any tablet/e-reader) yet, so Ive been getting them out of the library. BalsterFudd357 As it turned out, Beck was hired to kill Martha by a go-between named David Ridges, who himself was secretly working for greedy Wyoming land developer Barlow Connally. Andrey is a coach, sports writer and editor. I could buy a Longmire soundtrack like they use to release for shows like Miami Vice. son, not created in his fathers image.. I noticed the writers tried to fix that by claiming that Vic did not know he was married, but by then of course, it was too little, too late. If the arc is well done, like Ridges, I dont mind. I really dont want to see Walt & Vic in a relationship. That character added tons this season but Im with you on Henry, Vic, and Walt interacting more. . 3:36 am. At least cable shows have so few episodes per season its not hard to catch up. It may be its ultimate downfall which would be a shame. Hopefully in season 4 we will see more humorous interactions between Walt and Henry, I would love to know more about their history, and of course it would be great to see Walt and Vic finally have some happiness together. If the finale is an indication I think the writers will develop the Walt/Vic relationship slowly and do it right, it will work, and not be the typical main characters getting together to the detriment of the show. 5:59 am. Im not sure how the Longmire writers see the symbolism and I hesitate to try to look for anything more complicated in it than that simple message of a death. I doubt well get more. The only reason I watch A&E is to watch Longmire. The anti Vic, anti Walt/Vic haters and trolls are just more vocal and use any opportunity to ignite the dialog to rant about their point of view. Didnt care for her part then, and dont now. Lou Diamond Phillips is the epitome of elegance and eloquence. Hopefully he reacted fast enough, but then again they both had clayshot simiar to the Dick Cheney shooting so its very survivable. Grade: A-. A really good show and we would hate to see this series end. We both felt the same regarding the Gorski storyline and although I am not a Walt/Vic shipper, our discussions have been respectful and I appreciate that. I mean it was a continuing success for A&E even with a dip in the third season. Any TV business experts around? Thanks for letting me vent. Futhermore, I feel that Walts wife was robbed my a meth-head and accidently killed. My guess is yes. My husband thinks Im nuts and it was just makeup or war paint. I cannot imagine Cady ever getting romantically involved with Branch again. One episode ago, we didnt think this guy was actually going to be doing anything productive. What is it with these people? Im a latecomer to posting comments but Ive enjoyed reading the recaps and viewers comments. 5:19 am. Until recently I assumed it was a given and Longmire was just working its way there nice and slow. This show has it all..even my husband,, who normally only watches sports, never misses an episode of Longmire. I have a feeling Vics husband is not out of the picture yet. If you wanted to promote Longmire to others in prep for season 2 your hands were tied unless you DVRd it and had people over. I thought Walts spreading of Marthas ashes was very poignant. Of course he has some serious apologizing to Vic. August 5, 2014 @ Why is it still functional in s3.10? She was on 24 a few seasons ago. 2:13 pm, Jhera35 In a season of incredible performances from the whole cast, Robert Taylor delivered powerfully in the scene when Walt finally lets go of Martha. My guess on the ending: Barlow tried and failed to kill Branch. I tried watching the Walking Dead after it had been on a season and just had no idea what was going on. August 5, 2014 @ Has the owl brought a message of peace for Walt from Marthaor has someone died? Fortunately we were able to find it at a later time so we could see what we missed A&E also needs to start at the scheduled time rather tha 5 minutes late. Unless he felt it was so urgent he wouldnt get there fast enough or he was driving somewhere else but needed to tell Walt why? Kalalau I hope Branch isnt dead, but it seems like he might be and sometimes great characters have to die to advance a story.of course it could be his father who was shot, so.. Cindy Pierce Her reason for that was incredibly heartbreaking. August 5, 2014 @ I think Henry took the jar with requests for Hectors services because he is going to take over the role of providing justice to the Cheyenne when they cant get it anyplace else. Getting sick of their lack of information and promotion for Longmire. Watched the last episdoe for season 3 and immediately jumped on this forum to see what all were thinking. Not a dry eye in the house! I have this theory that Barlow and Walts relationship is much more complicated than its been said and that Marthas murder had more reasons behind it than just throwing Walt off his game to get Branch to the Sheriffs office. The scene of Vic, Ruby, and Ferg staring out the window at displaced, disturbed Deputy Branch is one of my all time favorite images for this show. Fabulous scene-entering into the morgue, the silence prior to dropping off Branch, the looks between Vic, Ferg, and Ruby, the wonderment and humor of this finale (2 shovles? That is what drew me to the series: incredible writing and beautifully crafted, works-of-art level episodes that still haunt me like Dog Soldier. Free through late August. It should be renewed for a fourth season because it is one of the best shows on television. It was one of the few times I can remember watching television and recoiling in shock at both Longmires mistake and Vics bloody pain. PLEASE let it continue on..Jane Davis, Lila Cox Was Longmire on his way to confront Connelly? [b]samanthajane[/b], Branch has been mostly a terrible law enforcement officer since season one. August 5, 2014 @ This year, I recommended this show to a lot of people. I have enjoyed reading the posts on this site this year, and thank you for providing an outlet for comments and opinions. Branch, knowing his father and being very wary of him, had stepped close enough to Barlow to interfere with the shot and perhaps strike him in the head with the butt of his shotgun. Season 4? Bailey Chase, with his increasingly desperate, haunted face and those electric blue eyes has given Branch much substance behind the swagger. Since we were new to the series, we watched from the beginning and got hooked ! I dont know details but I know the arrangement between Warner and A&E and A&E wanting more of the profits was the stumbling block last year. All the tributes proved just how many people Hector had helped and how much he was missed. He expressed the dignified despair of Henry Standing Bear so beautifully. It was moving to see Walt's body language, as if he were still reaching out for Martha as the remains sifted through his fingers. August 5, 2014 @ They run a marathon of the current season during the day on a Friday? Lucian is eccentric crazy, a lot of fun, love the character but I worry a bit when he is carrying a gun. Would be a shame if Branch turned up dead. Gutted by what could have been, she loaded a single bullet into her gun and went into the woods. And doesnt it seem rather misplaced for Barlow to kill Longmires wifewhy would he think that would get his son into the sheriffs office? I didnt know Longmire existed until a few episodes in last season. Longmires now officially on Netflix, and its begun filming Season 4. Walt then kills Barlow, avenging Branch and Martha, but is taken into court as Barlow had intended for his death to be used to get Walt accused of murdering him. I was stunned by the anti-Vic wing. Announce a Season 4 and give us at least 12 episodes! She seemed too girlie for him, half fainting violet, half stalker trying to force her way into his life. To all Im really enjoying all your thoughts. She had stopped at a campground where she fixated on a happy family laughing and holding hands. LOVE THIS SHOW!! As to the Walt and Vic relationship the writers have handled this with kid gloves. Other than glances and appropriate caring touches, there has been little hint of anything else. They also are weak in their other programming and it seems generally incompatible with the Longmire viewer type so they are unlikely to stumble upon it. I hope that Branch got the better of his father and didnt get killed. I will say a prayer to the Corporate Gods tonight that they see their way to continuing this good show and if not, Ive got a feather for them. So thats why (in terms of story justice) Longmire got to shoot Ridges himself, even though he doesnt yet know that it was Ridges who killed Miller Beck. Even Amazon who had season 1 VOD with a season pass when I asked about season 2 had no clue when/if season 2 would be available via their VOD. Glad you asked this? I never watch A&E anymore, other than The Glades and Longmire. Also was intrigued about Henry taking the jar. The person he hired killed the person that killed her. August 5, 2014 @ About halfway through the episode, we started to feel like he was the guilty party. Now, Im finding that my current favorite show might be cancelled? I wanted to make that clear. Too many tv shows are lazy and predictable keeping on main characters that should be gone to shake up the show. He came away with something on his thumb. [b]PerilPress[/b], Ive always liked Gerald McRaney going way back to Simon & Simon and Im kinda hoping hes not mortally wounded and sticks around a little more to add spice to these exceptional storylines. Did a&e ever consider showing it at 9 instead of 10 I bet a lot of folks who have to go to bed and do not have dvr would be watching who are not now, Jhera35 What could they possibly have in common? Walt says, The usual, and Vic says, Walt punched me. Just another day at the office. Keep up the good work!! I believe the scene was added, along with Branch visiting the corpse, to throw some suspicion (a red herring) his way that he was capable of swiping the body. Walt is great and all the cast play great off each other. You saw Walt's reaction to hearing the gunfire, which proved that he is nearby and therefore capable of coming to the rescue. Ive enjoyed the weekly re-caps, as there is always some little gem that I missed while watching. Not everyone has read the book series and what they know of the characters is from the tv series. I have unfortunately read too many threads where if you didnt agree with the relationship or didnt particularly like the Vic characterization, you were termed as jealous or a hater. IMO (2 cents), I think Barlow killed himself, thus setting Branch free to be his own man, thus creating another son, not created in his fathers image. It packed a wallop of an emotional punch for Longmire viewers from Henry being freed to Walts farewell to Martha to the Connally father and son confrontation. It is this unpredictability that contributes to the success of Game of Thrones and The Walking Dead. In that case, Branch would have been a shoe-in. What was it a symbol of there? It was Branchs big redemption! [url=http://deadline.com/2014/08/longmire-cancelled-by-ae-will-be-shopped-elsewhere-826379/]http://deadline.com/2014/08/longmire-cancelled-by-ae-will-be-shopped-elsewhere-826379/[/url]. I assume that came from ridges war paint. Watched the first two seasons on Netflix one episode after the other one weekend. SEE ALSO: Of course, we're covering Season 4 of Longmire,starting with the premiere Down By the River! The Glades and Longmire were both on Sunday night for season 1 of Longmire. djrandall9 Branch then delivers his father up to Longmire (his alternate father figure). Both the Walt and Vic characters have been encumbered, by the writers, with way too much baggage. I do think Barlow was the one to go down, but maybe not by Branch. Of course even if the owl is not a symbol someone died, it would not mean one of the two Connallys is not dead but I do now believe that Marthas spirit is not at rest and is trying to communicate with Walt at the end of the season 3 finale. When it comes to Henrys case, we spent most of the 70 minutes basically convincing ourselves that the guy was going to go back to prison. 2:11 pm. I am pro- what I call The VicWaltship but not in any hurry. Havent seen her lately . They only have three shows drawing any sizeable audience Longmire, Bates Hotel and DD (I have never watched either of the last two). Thank you. The Real Housewives of Atlanta The Bachelor Sister Wives 90 Day Fiance Wife Swap The Amazing Race Australia Married at First Sight The Real Housewives of Dallas My 600-lb Life Last Week Tonight with John Oliver. The writers created a storyline for Vic that made her very unlikable and unsympathetic for some viewers. Huffington Post. Great story, even with all the holes, but we thoroughly enjoyed the best of the Longmire storyline. This is where Barlow Connally entered the picture. These three characters need to interact a lot more. I dont think Branch was killed. austinmoose Aha! Heck, its logging more viewers than many network shows. Walt refutes this, however, saying that he has never loved. . Best television in a long time. Why did Henry take Hectors drop jar? Stephanie Nolasco, Ashley Papa. But it appeared Branch used both types. In the novel, "No Country for Old Men" by Cormac McCarthy, Barlow is the identity of the drug dealer whom Llewellyn kills without Walt ever getting an answer as to why Walt's wife is targeted. Not sure if that is due to some film doctoring that is beyond my understanding. why f with a good show. Plot [] Summary []. August 5, 2014 @ I read somewhere last year that they had come under new management. Barlow then revealed a knife and stabbed himself twice, further framing Walt for his murder right in front of him. Is Branch dead? I feel like the Longmire writers gave us a study in variations of a familial crazy gene this season. However, the writers need to be a bit more consistent as some of the story lines this year were a bit lamer than in the pasti.e., the murder in the pines. His line that son of a bitch Walt Longmire sounded like he has a deep hatred for him. And I appreciate everyone that joined in the conversation over the past ten weeks. [b]shrummer[/b], I think that the writers were going for closure on Walts grief for his decesased wife in the finale. First, Id like to raise. 1:34 pm. I was confused about that point myself but thats a logical conclusion. I do. August 5, 2014 @ Longmire picks up the lone wolf who has been out in the cold for a majority of this season, desperately trying to convince anyone whod listen that the White Warrior was alive. Maybe the writers will take you up on that! 13 August 2012. by Jason Hughes. Like some of you have mentioned, I too have been a little unclear as to why David Ridges would come after Branch with such vengence. It has been reported that A&E is contracturally obligated to make a renewal decision by August 31st. I cant help but wonder what effect Malachis return will have on both Mathias and the Rez next year (and there will be a NEXT year on some network! Maybe Branch shot at the clay and missed. Cheers for Season 4! So, onto Zachary (Barry Sloane). My open question is why did both Henry and Walt go after Miller Beck before Ridges killed him? Shareen Please bring the Longmire BACK even if it re runs. But if he did, he died redeemed. They have nothing worth watching. Why did Ridges go after Branch? Lou Stefano I do hope Longmire is renewed for another season. Everything is superb! Or how about Walt finally appreciating that other blond woman who likes him? And thank you, [b]snowdogmom[/b], for being a part of the conversation here each week. 1:06 pm. However, after Walt scatters his wife's ashes, he prepares to go after Nighthorse, believing him to still be involved. I absolutely love this show and i dont watch TV very often. Having sufficiently stoked Walt's rage, Barlow then draws a gun so Walt shoots him, twice. Jhera35 fantastic drama, pulse-pounding action and emotional catharsis. In Ashes to Ashes does the owl symbolize that Marthas spirit is still unquiet, that Longmire doesnt have it all figured out as completely as he thinks he does and is on the wrong track going after Nighthorse with a vengeance he feels Martha will need to forgive him of? HOOTIEWHO, LONGMIREA CONNALLY CONUNDRUMBRANCH OR BARLOWOR BOTH? What a great finale and another great season! A&E had a very good section on their website last year with detailed plot summaries, lists of cast members, including even the small roles, and information about the music chosen for episodes. I remember reading once that many settlers of Wyoming were driven mad by some combination of the incessant wind of the high plains and the loneliness. Walt saying goodbye to his wife was an unforgettable moment. 5:57 am. Who is the father of Vic's baby on Longmire? Whether the producers/actors will let us know or not, who knows. So Ifeel theres a very good chance. Im not a fan of the omminous grand story arc format. I wont get into a debate why the ratings are down as there are so many factors impacting them and I dont think they are accurate in the first place. A&E needs to promote it more and show it at an earlier time so that MORE people can watch. Walt Longmire (Robert Taylor) finds Branch Connally (Bailey Chase) walking down the road, shotgun in hand. 3:23 am. [b]Penny[/b], I also dont see Cady backtracking with Branch.
