A bit of a nitpicky thing and a little ramble-y but....

Now that the show seems to have done away with between season time-jumps, the way they handle weather seems a little bit off, specifically because of the way they shoot the seasons. The first half of seasons are shot in the spring/summer, while the second half is always shot in the fall/winter. 

Take the episodes 'A' and 'No Sanctuary'. These take place either on the same day. In 'A', it's very clearly chilly. It's supposed to be fall. But then we have 'No Sanctuary' , again taking place on the same day, but everyone looks like they're 5 seconds away from dying of a heatstroke* 

The same kind of situation is almost certainly going to happen again at the start of Season 6.

The world of The Walking Dead is really seeming like one where one day it could be 100+ degrees one day then -3 degrees the next.

So to fix it, instead of splitting up the filming of the seasons like they do the seasons themselves, why not film an entire season in spirng/summer, then the next in fall/winter. And just alternate seasons like that.

Probably not possible, but it would be nice. Create a more fluid world, less jarring changes in weather

 

*-Another reason I think it'd be a smart idea is because of shit like No Sanctuary where it did take place the very same day so they had everyone decked out in winter gear in a train car in Georgia in the middle of fucking SUMMER. That's just asking for problems
