Carl farkin' killed his own mom and scared the shiat out of Maggie when he turned the corner. Carl can't be farked with.

"Hey Beth, I just killed a ton of walkers and my own farking mom. Tell your old man to go to hell and join me in a guard tower, biatch."

calbert: minor quibble:

the sexual relationship between Glen and Maggie. you would think that with all of the drama surrounding Lori and her pregnancy and how it has been affecting the entire group, that Glen and Maggie (or any other 2 characters) would take the high road and just abstain from vaginal intercourse until things settled down.

i wonder if Maggie's sexual desire will be extinguished now that she's seen what happened to Lori?

and I know that people are people and have urges, but c'mon. not until things are settled.

it also just seemed rather silly that scene with Glen and Maggie in the guard tower, that seemed like it was done more for the enjoyment of the crew and it really felt out of place at that time and in their current situation.

You have never had sex in your life have you?

WhiskeyBender: ExperianScaresCthulhu: WhiskeyBender: Anybody else think Carl might not have shot Lori since it didn't show it? I could see him keeping her locked up.

So now Rick's the Governor pulling out Lori's teeth to kiss her, vomiting and trying again with the conviction that he'll get used to the taste?

Stop it! You're making my nipples hard!

I haven't read the comics, but even the plot summary on Wiki leads me to believe there will be MANY plotlines that go...unexplored for the television audience.

I'm glad they're veering from the comics. Now I could read them, and see an alternative storyline in the same universe.

that bosnian sniper: Finally a greenlit thread. God damn you, Walking Dead producers?

"Oh yeah so you farkers want Lori dead? Okay, we'll deal...we'll give you Lori, but in exchange we're taking T-Dog. Pray we do not alter the deal further".

AnaLucia and Libby agree.

Snapper Carr: Is it necessary to sit through all of the crappy season 2 to know what's going on in season 3? I've heard 3 is a lot better but I can't get more than 4 episodes into season 2 without wanting to throw something at the screen.

Not really. You've met all the characters you're really going to meet until season 3. Though I think suffering through season 2 makes you appreciate Carl's turn for the awesome a lot more.

Two great episodes in a row. The last two episodes alone were better than the total of last seasons episodes.

someonelse: calbert: the sexual relationship between Glen and Maggie. you would think that with all of the drama surrounding Lori and her pregnancy and how it has been affecting the entire group, that Glen and Maggie (or any other 2 characters) would take the high road and just abstain from vaginal intercourse until things settled down.

I would hope they are. I understand the Strangelovian urge to repopulate the planet and all, but damn. It's only been a matter of months since this all started. No woman in her right mind would actually be going out of her way to get pregnant yet.

I do think the scene with Glen and Maggie in the tower was meant to be a little comic interlude before the unimaginable horror that followed. But ... were they supposed to be watching the grounds while they were up there, or did they go up there just to be alone?

They went up there to be alone. Daryl? said somthing about how they were there the day before too.

People would be boning like crazy in that world. Being a survivor would boost sexual desire tremendously. Everybody wants to fark after they do somthing badass. And killing zombies is badass.

Plus, nothing makes people want sex more than seeing death. It's the reason funerals are one of the best places to get laid.

kumanoki: inelukii: Carol escaped as a result of T-Dog's sacrifice. She will end up coming across Lori and saving her life. There's a reason they showed Carol practicing on dead bodies. There's a reason T-Dog talked about how his death was going to be worth something. Carl didn't shoot Lori, he just fired a shot in frustration, anger, sadness, whatever.

We're not done with Lori yet. I'm ok with that, because I'm very much looking forward to the original plan for her character.

That would be a little far-fetched, but based on what we've seen so far, it's entirely plausible.

I was thinking along those lines too. If you watch the promo for the next show, everyone is trying to talk Rick from going in somewhere...My thoughts are Carl didn't shoot her, confesses to not doing it, and Rick wants to go in after her. He does, and finds that Carol saved Lori somehow, but with hemorrhaging so much blood, I guess the idea will be she goes into a coma, and that's where Woodbury's nurse and running into Andrea and Michonne come in to play.

doctor wu: Jesus, they just start giving T-Dog some dialogue then turn him into shoulder burger.

As soon as he starting talking and taking the screen over, I knew he was a goner. A last acting hurrah by a guy we barely ever heard from.

The definition of Token.

born_yesterday: And I'm pretty sure Michonne signed her own death warrant by subtly telling the governor that she knows he killed the guardsmen. 


I had a problem with that, she's way too saavy and suspicious to have tipped her hand so clumsily.

Don't get why so many hate on Lori. It's a zombie apocolypse!! As far as she knew her man was dead, so she got with the guy she thought could protect her and her son. What the hell else should she have done?

FarkerSnow: So, why did Lori die immediately from a c-section? That shouldn't have killed her.

She most likely bled to death. She probably went into shock and passed out at first, then died from blood loss.

That is my guess.

DownTheRabbitHole: I wish the show would stick to the comic more this is starting to get ridiculous

I love the show but I am sad how disassociated the writers have become from the original story.

The original story was completely retarded by this point. F*ck it.

PTP_Professor: On IMDB, it shows Lori and Carol both in every episode for the rest of the season, so I don't think either one is gone. Carol probably escaped to safety, Lori probably ends up zombified after carl failed with his attempt at putting her down

After the shenanigans in prior seasons with people nitpicking over EVERY..SINGLE...F*CKING...THING they can find to ruin things for normal viewers, I'm pretty sure the powers-that-be are screwing with you.

GameSprocket: Anyone else not trust off-screen deaths on this show? They seem to have very little problem showing the characters getting killed in all kinds of violent ways, why suddenly so shy?

I did enjoy the half hour of watching them rearrange vehicles. It looked the the prison had valet parking.

I"d venture a guess that censors probably didn't want a kid to shoot a "real" human. Zombies ok, real humans not ok. 
Kinda like when you see kids shows with alot of violence. Samurai Jack, Clone Wars... those have alot of violence if you think about it, but the only ones getting dismembered, beheaded, and being destroyed in brutal ways are robots or anything else that is not technically alive.

That being said, but did anyone else think Carl was ready to off that baby when it didn't start breathing right away? You could see on his face he was somewhat relieved till he realized he had to deal with Lori.

GameSprocket: I did enjoy the half hour of watching them rearrange vehicles. It looked the the prison had valet parking.

Where are they getting all the gasoline to do this senseless vehicle shuffling, also and.

I wish the show would stick to the comic more this is starting to get ridiculous

I love the show but I am sad how disassociated the writers have become from the original story.

I stayed awake for that?

The last show I watched that was this S-L-O-W was Caprica.

fusillade762: Did anybody else notice the twitch under the Governor's eye when Merle confronted him about "family"?


Voodoo_Stu: Any one else notice the zombies seem to hate mercy? This is at least the second person to go after being the only person arguing to not kill people earlier in the same episode.

Ah, you noticed that, too?

Yes I did, and I think that was fantastic. That scene showed that Merle probably does love his little brother, and that under the surface, the Gov's thugs know how far they can push him.

So, why did Lori die immediately from a c-section? That shouldn't have killed her.

What the fark did I just watch? This episode went so far into the realm of absurdity that it can no longer be taken as anything other than a complete joke.

You can only pile it on so much, writers, before it becomes too much to take.

Is anyone else getting fed up with this show? Last season was all arguing on the farm, this season looks like it's going to be all about arguing in the prison. It gets a bit old after awhile. Not only that, they're 3 episodes in(Before the most recent, of course), and they haven't explained shiat about what's-her'name, the chick with the sword and the Zombie followers. I understand the concept of a slow reveal, but this is just milking the viewers for more episodes with less writing so they can drag the show out.

It's like all of these shows now that have a year in between seasons, it's just a way to put on your resume that your show-'X' went for 5 years, even though it really only covered the amount of time that a show that ent 3 seasons would cover. Unfortunately, everyone seems to equate this tactic with "Quality over quantity", conveniently ignoring the fact that these shows still follow a standard timeline for pre-production, shooting and post-production. I blame Battlestar Galactica for this, SciFi farked around with this who continually, waiting this long in between seasons, breaking the 4th season in half, etc., and people kept tuning in(Myself included). It's kinda like how the gas companies kept jacking up the price of gas until people started modifying their driving habits in a noticeable way. They set this as their ceiling and backed the prices off. It's all about giving us the absolute least amount that we will put up with while putting in more and more commercials and more and more annoying crap popping up on our screen during the show until they find out how much is too much, then backing off.

I like this show, I'm just tired of trying to remember what the fark happend a year ago when the new season rolls around, and the way they've done this season has really left me wondering if I missed an episode or 3 at some point.

/I'll quit ranting now.

I was hoping they were building up t-dogg to be a bigger character. Carl found hardcore status without ben.

Finally. Not even Meryl Farking Streep could save that character. Too bad about T-Dog. I guess Michonne is going to be ultimate African badass for the entire state of Georgia now.

Jesus, they just start giving T-Dog some dialogue then turn him into shoulder burger.

justtray: Lori wasn't going to live much longer anyway, so at least she's gone now.

T-dawg, well, he didn't exist in the comic, so hard for his character to have any dept, BUT it looks like we finally have our real Tyrese character maybe! Makes more sense than Darryl being Tyrese.

Carol will probably be found dead, and that will lead to more questions, and more death, yay!

Could be that the guy with the axe wasn't the black guy in the room? Did he really have the capability to get out to get a deer? Did he necessarily have to be working alone? Questions, questions...

Andrea could go any which way at this point, her character is nothing like the comic anymore. Still no idea how they're going to interact with the people at the prison, or even find them, since there's no connection like there was in the comic, so there is some surprise left.

I'll agree the last couple episodes have been decent, better than the last two seasons combined, as mentioned.

NOTHING is like the comic anymore !!! I'm trying to find the similarities and I'm struggling

Don't get me wrong I love the show but they are leaving out such great stuff from the novel omg

Outshined_One: I kept waiting for the baby to go zombie and bite Maggie.

That would have been a delightful way to fark up Carl for life...even moreso.

Carl would have just shot the baby.

Mentat: aspAddict: As much as I hate Lori's character, I didn't see them killing her off until she reconciled with Rick...or maybe that's what the half-smile across the prison yard was.

Still...damn, Carl is hardcore.

Rule 1 of Walking Dead: Rick gets no resolution.

Rule 2: Due to Rule 1, Rick must go more and more insane as the show goes on

Mentat: TheLopper: For mindless zombies who drag their feet everywhere and groan non-stop while moving at 1 MPH, they sure are good at sneaking up on people who should know better.

To be fair, he was holding back a group of foot dragging, non-stop groaning walkers.

I wasn't aiming my comment at T-Dawg specifically, but right before that part, when they showed Carl smiling with about 20 walkers 15 feet away from him and the rest of the group.

T-Dawg was focused on closing that damn gate.

Voodoo_Stu: Any one else notice the zombies seem to hate mercy? This is at least the second person to go after being the only person arguing to not kill people earlier in the same episode.

You don't question the Ricktatorship. T-Dog should have known better.

So happy. Lori dead, because she's Lori. T-Dog, just because I'm sick as hell of people talking about how many lines he has every goddamn week!

And Carl? He's been reborn hardcore

Mentat: So to get rid of Lori we have to sacrifice T-Dogg? NOT FAIR WRITERS

They've been waiting a whole two seasons to troll us with that.

For mindless zombies who drag their feet everywhere and groan non-stop while moving at 1 MPH, they sure are good at sneaking up on people who should know better.

And what is up with the heads in the jars? Flashbacks of "The Shadow Council".

Anyone else see it look like Daryl gets bit in the previews?

"Alas, poor T-Dog, I knew him, Daryl....."
