Walking Dead starts tonight

[JonT]

Imagine the worst thing that can happen and it probably will. My guess is Randall escapes and the other gang shows up pissed. Darrell's bro will show up for sure!!

[JavaBrewer]

I hope that Darrell's bother shows up before the end of this season. Final show down.

Fascinated with Carl's character development. He is quickly becoming a twisted young man.

On the drive out to let Randall go the lone zombie was on Shane's side of the car both times. That's pretty awesome.

LOL. My kids are convinced that the zombie seen from the car is Otis. He's 'slowly' making his way back to the farm.

You guys bring out some really good points! Great comments.

I didn't realize the walker that munched on Dale was the same one that Carl was throwing rocks at.

Tonight's episode should be pretty good I'd think. You know at some point that other group will find it's way to the farm and when they do...

[Baz]

"Sorry brother....." (boom!)

Daryl's my fav. character

[Baz]

Well..........we all saw this coming!!! Another melodramatic episode right up until the end. Good for Rick.

[Baz]

They've made it now apparent that any dead person will now rise (the 2 guards at the public works, the kid Shane killed, and now Shane himself).

Like now the thing is airborne, or whatever.

I wonder how this new circumstance will affect the plot moving forward?

[willtel]

The escaped prisoner also turned.

I think the deal is everyone is infected and you don't turn until bitten or you die another way.

[vash]

what an episode!!

looks like they pick the worst time to take out shane..he is handy during an invasion.

[Heel n Toe]

It was way past time for Shane to get dead. I have no idea what he was doing hesitating in shooting Rick. I guess Rick's hostage negotiation skills are completely legendary now.

Three dumb things in tonight's episode...

1. Rick is walking toward Carl after he kills Shane. Carl raises the gun and points it in his direction at the level of his head. Then you see Shane get up... after Carl raises the gun. So Carl was gonna shoot his dad?
2. Zombie Shane is doing the walker shuffle toward Rick... making lots of noise (unlike last week's ridiculous silent zombie tiptoeing up on Dale), but Rick hears nothing?
3. I'm sure this was for dramatic effect, but still... it didn't work: Carl, Rick, and zombie Shane are all three in a direct line, so for Carl to make the shot, he has to zing it right by his dad's head. I think he would've yelled "Dad! Duck!" or something.

I'm not ditching just because of dumb stuff like this, but it strains credibility.

Anybody else notice this stuff? Did it bug you?

[slodave]

Four dumb things. Glenn not moving his stuff into Maggie's room.

That was dumb, but that's writing.

I'm focusing on direction. Heh heh.

Did you see Talking Dead?

[slodave]

Just watched it. Hard to keep my eyes off Ms. Cohan.

[GothingNC]

The part about Rick not hearing Shane raising back up bugged me too.
Rick may have been in shock after killing his friend and then seeing his son pointing a gun at him.

I am thinking everyone is now a carrier of the virus after being exposed from the splattered zombie blood and the ash from the burning bodies contaminated the soil/air.

Shane may have been going though symptoms of the virus toward the end after being exposed to the walkers' blood on his sliced hand while trapped in the school bus.

[Andy911sc]

Here is an interesting thought and I don't know if it was brought up yet. So they have shown us that it must be an air-born disease. Don't know if everyone has it and it doesn't kick in until you are dead or after you die something happens, anyways that detail is besides my point.

What if the new baby that is on the way will be born with a natural immunity to this disease and therefore hold a cure for it.

[Eric 951]

I don't watch "talking dead" so I may have missed it, but what were the walkers feeding on at the start of the episode? I thought it was a cold open, and eventually the episode was going to explain this scene and it would be Shane's Rick's or the prisoner's body. Was it a cow?

What bothered me about the episode.
1. Just how careless are these people with their guns? Shane buried his(I know it was part of the story of the escape) but Rick giving Daryl's gun back to Carl--Daryl even mentioned that he "wanted to know what happended to his gun" After Rick killed Shane, he left both his and Shane's pistols on the ground?

2. Once again--why isn't Lorie watching Carl? He suddenly shows-up in the dark by himself?

3. All of a sudden there is a mad rush to get everyone inside the house and barricade the lower windows/doors--when all summer they were just lollygagging about the farm and sleeping in tents

4. The huge group of walkers at the end of the episode were just standing around in a clump of woods which isn't too far from the house, until they heard the gunifre from Shane/Carl and THEN get motivated to start walking towards a house where poeple have been all summer target practicing, shooting the barn walkers, and the lights?

5. I guess the writers realized that T-dog wasn't doing anything for the past several episodes, so last night they had him involved in EVERYTHING--thought that was funny.

Show is good, but could be excellent with some minor tweaks.

[slakjaw]

At the start of last weeks episode where Randall was talking about the two girls getting raped. did anyone else get the impression he was taunting Daryl as in like I know what you did?

I haven't seen last nights show but I understand that it probably doesn't matter any more since Randall is gone now.

[slakjaw]

Also, anyone else think parf should be re named to the typing dead?

[GothingNC]

The CDC scientist probably did Tell Rick that the virus was airborne and the survivors technically are the "walking dead"
