Posted: 2/20/2012 5:11:25 AM | Rick is getting on my nerves - when he told the guys looking for their friends that he'd killed them, because they drew first, I thought for sure Glenn or Herschel was going to be die in the episode. They should've ambushed those guys, not invited them to let bygones be bygones. And Lori reminds me a bit of Skyler from Breaking Bad - out of touch with reality, and trying to cling to values that have no place in their new world, if they ever did (her absurd attitude towards guns, her dismay when Carl Jr. states that his dad did the right thing by shooting Sophia).
I'm starting to like Shane more. He just needs to get over Lori. | |

Posted: 2/20/2012 7:05:54 AM | Ok last the night, the young guy w/ the boo-boo leg left by his group to die, once he recuperates, why would he even want to go back to them? They didn't give a crap & left him for the zombies, & him being injured, would hold them back anyway...& if they were anything like the 2 in the bar, they were a skanky crew.
If the doc bothered enuf to do the surgery & save his life, why would they send him back??? | |

That part of last night's show irked me. It made absolutely no sense for Rick to shout out a response to those guys when they were hiding in the bar. I mean, maybe he was feeling some sort of guilt over killing their buddies - though that would be farfetched - but why did he have to go and answer their calls? Rick had made it clear that he's there to protect everyone, that he feels it's his job....and then to answer the yahoos who were wandering around outside the bar, letting them know of their presence? Really dumb writing. The look that Hershel shot him when Rick did that is one I would've directed at whoever wrote the episode.
I like Shane's character too. Gives a nice evilish twist to the character interaction. I'm wondering though, if the writers are going to wind up killing him off at the end of the season, like they did Darabont ;). I hope not. | |

This is writing guffaw number 2 for me with last night's show. If Rick opted to save this boy's life, why would he even bother if the plan is to release him on his own once he's well enough to walk again? First, as they pointed out in the show, that would be akin to feeding him to the walkers. And second, if he did somehow manage to survive and joined back up with his buddies, then Rick's compassion would have just jeopardized the safety of everyone at the farm. For someone who has a level head on his shoulders and has been presented as a strong leader, Rick is making some pretty bad judgement calls.
I wonder if the AMC cutbacks to the show including the quality of writing staff... | |

Posted: 2/20/2012 4:16:20 PM | | I don't think the guy they saved, their buddies are going to look for him nor do i think he will look for them. They thought he was dead and they ran off, because the place was over ran by zombies, they are prob miles and miles away from that place. I think he will play a factor in Rick and Shane's power struggle as Shane will use the guy Rick saved as a base point to show everyone that Rick is weak and lacks no leadership while Rick will rep his base point to show everyone that Shane is reckless and selfish. Next week shows is where Rick and Shane rift will be coming to a head and you will see prob a big rift between the group in episodes to come. | |

Thanks for your advice soicat :) I definitely don't want to egg them on by saying "Early Bird Special", it wouldn't be pretty.  | |

Saw last night's episode (excellent, again) and it looks like your prediction was pretty much on the mark. While I didn't think the kid with the leg injury was going to try and find his buddies, I figured he'd somehow meet up with them again. I'm also wondering if he ties in with Daryl's one-handed brother in some way....that was a feeling I got, though it's probably wrong. ;) The Rick/Shane conflict got very interesting, and is really adding well to the show's drama. I suspect you may be right about the rift in the group too, since Andrea was ready to sign her name to Team Shane, and has now created a rift of her own with the others because of her actions with Maggie's sister. Carol and Daryl might wind up becoming part of that split as well. If Leg-Injury Kid sticks around, not sure where they'd put him, since Shane was all too avid to get rid of him...but his character is hinting that he has a Shane-type personality. I still think he'll wind up with buddies of his showing up, or perhaps another group he doesn't know, but will join.
Then again, I'm usually wrong about these things.  | |

Posted: 2/27/2012 6:48:34 AM | The Leg-Injury Kid may be even worse than Shane. His overkill of the lady zombie, and his comment that he knew who Maggie was from school, although she didn't know who he was, suggest that he may be enjoying the post-zombie world a bit more than is seemly. Will he become a valued member of the group, or will he lead a group of rapers and looters back to the farm? That's assuming Rick or Shane or zombies don't kill him.
BTW there should be a rule that you don't tie someone up in a world full of zombies; if you feel you have to bind them, just shoot them instead. | |

Posted: 2/27/2012 10:34:29 AM | Ok...so I watched last night's episode and now something is bothering me.
When Rick and Shane were dropping the kid off at that fenced in depot or whatever, there was a scene where Shane was looking out of the car window.
He sees a zombie wandering around in a field all alone.
On the way back to the farm, there was another scene where he saw the same zombie wandering around in the field.
Seems odd that they would show this twice. | |

Not sure....but what I took from it was more symbolic than anything else; that of Shane feeling alone, wandering outside of the group.
The Leg-Injury Kid may be even worse than Shane.
Agreed...scenes where he wasn't pleading for his life had him coming off as quite creepy, and he definitely could be very bad news. | |

Posted: 2/27/2012 10:56:07 AM | | During Rick's Zombie sandwich, was I the only person to notice that the zombies seemed to notice what a gun was, but even took a couple swipes at it, trying to push it away? | |

Posted: 2/27/2012 3:28:13 PM | Maybe they are pulling a I am Legend and the Zombies are somehow learning with little brain activity they have left from the brain stem that the virus is keeping alive.
Yeah i def see a big power struggle within the group after seeing next weeks episode preview. Andrea and Daryl looks to be siding with Shane in the coming episodes and I wouldn't count Beth out to join them either to cause a rift in the family. While I see Lori, Dale, Glenn Carol, Hershal, and Maggie siding with Rick. As for T-Dog I really don't seem him lasting much longer. Something tells me he is going to get killed just by the way they are continuing to phase him out on each episode. So i'd look for T-dog to be the next main cast member to die. | |

Posted: 2/28/2012 9:28:37 AM | | I've always liked The Walking Dead, even the more subdued first part of this series but has it upped a notch or is just me? - the last two have been magnficent - everything I could wish for in my zombie PA imaginings. | |

Posted: 2/28/2012 9:33:43 AM | Coralima, and anyone else who is a fan, y'all should be watching The Talking Dead after the show. They give out a lot of information.
Couple weeks ago they had the producer on. He promised that this season we'd see a lot more action and a lot more action. So far, so good. | |

Posted: 2/28/2012 9:46:22 AM | | I've watched most of The Talking Dead - quite difficult to get hold of sometimes here though. Love it when they have one of the actors on, they all seem to love their show. | |

Wish I could...I caught it once during the first season and loved it. But now they air that horrible "Comic Book Men" right after "The Walking Dead" here, then they replay the Walking Dead episode again, and then they finally show "Talking Dead". By the the time it airs it's midnight, and I get up at 5 a.m. to head off to work so...I have to skip it. | |

Actually the show is about what happens during a post-zombalyptic world...not just zombies eating people, but the emotions, turmoil, and everything in-between that takes place with the survivors as a result of a new world order (imo). A lot of people though, do seem to want more zombie action, so you're definitely not in a minority there. | |

Posted: 3/5/2012 9:30:13 AM | | Man that was a shocker. I didn't see Dale getting killed coming. I thought it was going to be T-Dog, but the strange thing about that is, on the Talking Dead in the did you know segment, the Dead cow was suppose to be a dead cast member in which I suspect was going to be T-dog, but for some reason they changed their mind and went with a dead cow that Dale stumbled upon instead. I guess having two cast member die in one show was too much too fast. | |
