I won't post anything to give anything away... If I did in the past then I'm sorry. I'm still a little confused about why they care though. They are making a show about something that anyone who can read would already know about. I know they aren't following along RIGHT with the book but they are still staying pretty close to it in the actual events.

No, I am just saying that if God liked ducks they wouldn't be endangered. |

It was correct now that I have rewatched last weeks episode and saw the "previews" for next week. in fact it appears to be DEAD on. |

A 9mm might expand to .45, but a .45 will never shrink to 9mm.
Good judgement comes from experience, and a lot of that comes from bad judgement. |
Really, really liked last nights episode and I thought they wrapped up the 2nd season pretty darn good. Hopefully next season doesn't have a break like this one did.
Think I might start looking at the Graphic novel and pick up the hardcover "The Govenor". For those that are worried about their Sunday night viewing. Start watching The Killing or Game of Thrones. Both start April 1st . |

oh shit... MICHONNE IS HERE!

Finally! after 2 seasons we get some Zombie action instead of watching the charecters stare out over a field for 10 mins. The show is based on a comic book, so there should be no slow areas to bore us. Leave the sex, long boring conversations, etc. out. Give the viewer what we are waiting for "Action".

Can't wait for season 3 now, should be good.

I hate to say it, but I feel like they are going to make Michonne into a weak and whinny character and not the bad ass that she is.
With this group, Rick is the leader, but they need someone who can think ahead and prepare for an assault. OMG, Lori. REALLY? I think the producers of this show thought, "well, we don't want her to condone killing Shane, so she'll hate Rick at first because we need the drama." Oh, I understand why Rick didn't tell them what Jenner told him. He didn't know for sure that he was telling him the truth. All Rick knew was that Jenner may be lying, but he may not be. Why scare the group when he had no proof. Then Carol gets all, "I don't like his leadership skills." WTF? What if Rick told them what Jenner said up front as soon as he could, and Jenner was wrong? Then they'd be pissed for lying to him. Rick can't win. He can't. Shane can kill Otis (and those who figure it out) will forgive Shane, but OMG Rick is leading us to survival. HANG HIM! |

Haven't been able to keep up with this or any other thread on arfcom for the past 2-3 weeks, so not sure whether anyone has posted this yet:
"The Walking Dead" Finale: Killings, Katanas, and What's to Come! My wife IM'd it to me with the "Spoiler Alert!" warning, but when I pressed her on it, she admitted "it doesn't really say much other than what we suspected." Any way... I don't think these really count as spoilers, but caveat emptor if you're hardcore them. |

Maybe they are going to "deviate" by backtracking for her character for an episode or two to give us back story on her and how she came to have two zombies chained to her, etc. while they touched on it a little bit in the book, perhaps thats the deviation they are refering to (keeping fingers crossed) They love the hell outta "why does so and so feel this way" kinda stuff and it would be fitting for their soap opera like telling of the story. |

Any idea when they are replaying last nights episode? |

Watched and loved most of it......What is up with Hercshell and the ultimate 870!!!
Mine only holds 4+1 I think I lost count a 12, unless he was doing some re-loading so quick that it was in between camera frames....... He did reload one time, that I saw, but that was after the AA12 thing. I did like the episode, and it gets us ready for Season 3........Blade master!!! |

If I cared about all the lapses (arent they called spaital lapses or something?) I would have to stop watching, so I try to ignore the small ones. Like how is Andrea close enough to the prison after running through the woods for the Katana character to save her, yet the other group who was driving vehicles for a long time is also right next to the prison. Rick mentioned the vehicle had been "on the red line for the last hour" Or how did Herschell never know or mention the prison they were always so close to. It's obviously within running distance of the farm since Andrea is close to it. Or how did Shane and Rick end up in the field right next to the farm (with Rick's son right there), if Shane kept leading Rick farther and farther from the farm like he said at the end of the episode. I could go on but it doesn't matter. I really like the show, its better then most everything else on TV. |

I thought 90% of that season sucked.
I think I ruined myself between seasons by reading the comics, but we went back and watched season 1 and it was way better. Finally Michonne shows up, but I bet they don't do nearly as much to her in the show as they do in the comics, and I bet she isn't even close to the same level of crazy/sadistic. I hate to say it, but they managed to do the same thing to end this season as they did last time, move a significant step further in the story line and leave it hanging for 8 months, and if it ends up being a let down again I'm gonna be pissed. Tons of awesome story lines branch from the prison, hopefully they fully explore them instead of giving us 8 episodes of the ladies riding the cotton pony again. |

great episode, BUT its lame that a herd would follow them from Atlanta through fences and to the clearing BUT once they got to the house they went all random, and then when Andrea was running through the woods, they were random, and then when they they showed the roads the zombies were random again.
and WTF, i would have kept running them over with cars until more brains could get busted |

Additionally, it wouldn't take that long to take an industrial digging tool or back hoe and dig a moat around the house, or further out around the fence line. Fences may not hold them, but a six foot wide by six foot deep moat would keep 'em out. Hell, fill it up with water and throw in a couple sharks with frickin laser beams... |

My wife asking why they didn't have a bugout plan with a cache at the sublocation. I would have bugged out and come back in the DAYLIGHT and do some recon. It might have taken some time before the horde left due to inactivity. They didn't "lose" the farm, persay.
