    Just gotta say, Daryl looked good holding that baby.

    Also, totally loved getting to see more of the little utopia. Interested to see what Andrea does... hopefully the little gladiatorial show knocked some sense into her. Oh, hell, who am I kidding?

    michonne is quite annoying. too bad because he seemed like she could have been a really cool character.

    i think the daryl fan girls' ovaries exploded at him holding and feeding the baby. :laugh:

    and i was wondering if they walker ate lori. had the other buried her yet?

    I totally missed that Carol was killed last week, I thought it was only T-dog and Lori, but not Carol. I know there are a lot of Carol haters, but I like her motherly character and hope she is hiding out in the prison and was her on the phone to Rick. Who else could it be. Glad they found some food for the baby, and think it's funny that Hershel is up and about without much difficulty.

    Another amazing episode!!

    I was really hoping Rick would cut open that zombies belly and Lori's head would come rolling out, lol!!

    Rick going totally bonkers is interesting, and for those of you that have read the comics... we know things!
    It was cool to see a lot of comic book aspects in tonights show.

    Greg Nicotero said Carol was dead on the Talking Dead tonight, but I think he was trying to be tricksy. I'm not believing it, although I would like it to be true.

    And Daryl... oh my!! Could he be any hotter?? Who's a little *kitten* kicker??

    Ok so....
    #1 I never really saw Daryl as "hot", just more of a bad *kitten*. But seeing him with that baby, TURN ON for sure
    #2 Umm.... did i miss something? They never showed Carol's body, so who the hell did they burry?
    #3 I agree with the "whats with not giving T-Dog some last words?" I cried more about him than i did about Lori (sorry i hate her!!)
    #4 "Hello? Can you hear me now?!?" When the hell did the phones start working? LOL
    #5 Andrea is DUMB! I get her wanting to stay, but just letting someone ride solo like that, who helped you LIVE for 8 months. Not gonna do it
    #6 If Hershel is such a smart doc, how come he hasn't suggested that Maggie try to breast feed the baby. As a nurse i know that even if a woman has never given birth, if stimulated, she can start to lactate. Someone needs to start sucking some tit-tays, because 2 cans of formula goes FAST and there are no cows around im sure. *SMH*

    Probably because thats is his 'barely' adult daughter. And they can scavenge for formula. Even in a survival situation I would be freaked out if my dad suggested this to me. And I have actually nursed a baby. Im the exact opposite. I would have been really weirded out by that.

    If it means a baby's life? You would be weirded out by that? And scavenging for formula will only last so long. Unless they can find a Costco or something, that baby is f-ed

    Hershel's smart, but he's still a vet, not a human doc. You can trick a nursing animal into adopting an orphan, sometimes even from different species, but I doubt a similar situation would have ever come up in his practice.

    I might be in a minority. I like Michonne. She's got issues out the wazoo, and sometimes acts like an unsocialized feral animal, but I like that in a character.

    I like Andrea, too, and I can understand her point of view... even in trusting Merle when he was such a *kitten*. Anything that's familiar is going to be comforting after such prolonged trauma and stress.

    I can understand Rick going off the deep end, too. I react the same way... I can hold it together in an emergency and be everyone's rock, but as soon as it's over, especially with a bad outcome, I loose it. And I want to be alone while I'm loosing it. Don't try to comfort me.

    I love how Daryl started off as an outcast and kind of a dreg, and now he's the one holding the group together.

    if it turns out carol found lori(assuming carl did not shoot her) and sewed her up and are hiding out somewhere in the prison i think it will be safe to say the show has jumped the shark.

    im worried this may be true because where are lori's bones?


    i dont care what people involved with the show say...other shows have lied about character outcomes for dramatic effect. Starbuck in BSG is an example.

    I like Michonne as well. I think she adds a nice dimension to the show, and truthfully, I could see myself turning kind of like that (guess y'all probably wouldn't want to be on my zombie apocalypse team!). I mean, not all crazy ninja warrior type but hyper aware and maybe slightly paranoid. And let's be real, it's not like she doesn't have reasons to be the way she is-- the governor gives off a creepy vibe even if he tries to be all peaches and cream. It's survival.

    the more they show the Gov the more i like him! dude knows how to run things and have fun.

    I would set up a zombie carnival. knock the walker over with a baseball and win a prize!
  • I'm an instant Michonne fan! I love the contrast between her and Andrea. As far as Lori's body goes, I think they buried her, Carol's body was the only one not found but presumed dead. The phone ringing is freaking me out, though! I wonder if it's Carol and she's trapped somewhere. I don't get why people think Carl didn't shoot Lori though. It's not as if we didn't see him become more adapted to the environment. He said he would've shot Sophia if he had been the one to find her. He had no problem taking out Shane who was like a second father to him. I think the hesitation of shooting the walker in the swamp that killed Dale, probably will haunt him beacuse that time he didn't do the right thing.

    About Lori's body, I don't think anyone went back down there to get it. I think areas around the boiler room are still a kind of "hot zone" and they rest of the survivors are just holding up in ares they know are safe. I think the walker in the boiler run dragged her off and ate alot of her. It woud be totally moronic if they were trying to suggest it ate ALL of her, bones and all, and I think the writers are better than that, but I think the setup of that scene is somewhat confusing.

    Carol hasn't been found. I think they assume she is dead, and made her a grave anyways. Funny points about no euology for T-dog. I guess I am just as bad because I hadn't thought of that ever. I wonder if they took time to actually recover his body as well.

    Sorry but yes. When I was 21 or 22 I would have lost my mind if somone suggested this. Its a major longshot.

    I totally agree. And while I don't like Andrea as much I fully understand tolerating things in this new life that I would't have before all in the name of safety.
    I am also in the minority that didn't hate Lori. I thought she made mistakes. I liked that she was a complex character with flaws. And for the most part once she discovered Rick was alive she had his back through difficult decisions.

    well, in watching TD, I did discover it wasn't her wedding ring Rick picked up, but the bullet from Carl shooting her, pretty sure Lori is dead. I do not, however, believe Carol is dead- I think she's somewhere in the prison with another psycho....waiting on Daryl to find her.

    I'm glad they addressed looking for baby stuff- when Maggie said "Lori's been asking me to keep an eye out for___" still think it was an afterthought on the show's part (addressing it anyways)- they would have found SOMETHING 8months on the road. just sayin.

    Michonne, very guarded person, and Andrea- has this "I'll give it to the strongest male I find" so weird they were together so long- being oppposites..almost like Andrea just finds someone to cling to - and looks for the strongest dude around - So far, I don't know enough about Michonne to dislike her, I do think she's kind of cool so far though. I do want to say - as far as Andrea being cool with Merle, I agree with another poster- that said he was just familiar- I doubt she'd hook up with him- he does have VD, and she KNOWS that - and there's no cure, or presumably no meds available either- you'd be foolish to hook up with him. and.....EW!

    the phone....can't wait to see what that's about! I didn't get very far in the comics yet, so I don't know anything about that - and from what I've seen the show and the comic don't necessarily follow the same storylines anyways.

    Where do I start? best episode so far.

    They seem to be bringing in elements from the comic books again. I'm just wondering how far will they push it and will they show the most graphic story lines involving the governor?

    I'm accepting bets now that:-
    (a) Carol isn't dead. She'll resurface later maybe after the show returns from the mid-season break or right at the end of the mid-season finale.
    (b) Lori is deader than the deadest thing in a dead factory and is now a paid up, card-carrying member of her local branch of "Zombie Union". (I bet that Carl chickened out and didn't put a bullet in her head. I reckon the blood trail near where Rick found the bullet and the fat walker is probably from zombie Lori crawling away).

    I watched the talking dead after TWD and they said the zombie with the bloated stomach that Rick stabbed multiple times had just gorged himself on Lori's dead corpse, so I'd have to agree - she's dead, dead and not coming back again.

    This season is the best yet!! This was a great episode. I'm glad to see Rick have a real reaction of just going off the deep end. He had been holding it together for so long and Lori dying was the straw that broke the camel's back. I'm surprised that one of the other females hasn't stepped up to take care of the baby. Don't get me wrong seeing Daryl basically made me start ovulating (and I don't even WANT kids) but I thought that maybe Maggie or Hershel's other daughter would step up. It was sad to hear Carl naming off all the women of the group that had died. I was REALLY hoping for a toddler zombie attack at the daycare where Maggie and Daryl were rummaging for food. That would have been awesome!!!

    I'm glad that Michonne actually left without Andrea. You would think that Andrea would trust someone that helped keep her alive for 8 months but then again after wandering the woods and probably smelling just as bad as the zombies I would want to stay somewhere that had showers, lights and hot food.

    As always I'm interested to see how the story line will go from here. Also this hasn't been a problem so far this season but last season we had some issues with comic book spoilers ruining the story line. PLEASE REMEMBER NO COMIC BOOK SPOILERS WHEN DISCUSSING THE SHOW'S STORY LINE
