Totally feel you on the nightmares! I woke up this morning drenched in sweat because of a zombie dream. Apparently it's my new normal for Sunday night-Monday morning sleep.0 -
Me too. Although last night, all I kept picturing was that last scene, with all the walkers behind them.0

OMG! I can't wait!0

I am the same way. The walkers terrify me! I have finally graduated from not watching at all, to running in and out of the room as I watch, to watching with my hands up to cover part of the screen...

This is what I did last night when Rick was oblivious to Shane becoming a walker and sneaking up behind him. Haha.0 -

Given the trauma of what had just occurred, I am not surprised his situational awareness was a bit off-kilter. What's even funnier is the scene they released for next episode of Carl and Rick having a heart to heart right after it happened, and then they slowly notice the crowd in the background.0 -

This is the first episode of this season I didn't use the term "jumped the shark" to my hubs after watching. I actually went, "Whoa, about f'ing time they got back to the good *kitten*."
Good stuff. I now am hopeful for the remainder of the season -- especially with the impending sh*tstorm of zombage about to rain down upon their annoying a.sses.
*throws Andrea out into the field*0 -

*trips Lori*
Agreed, I miss the epicness of the first season, where I had to watch with my hands clenched, edge of my seat, screaming at the TV. Haven't had a lot of that this season, but the episode in the bar with Rick/Hershel/Glen was good, and this last ep was that way.0 -

My quite-flawed theory is that the virus has mutated is now in the bloodstream of any living who have come in contact with zombies. Doesn't take a scratch or injury any more, just requires a good bucket-kicking of the infected living person for the disease to take over.0 -

my theory is that everyone has it and has had it since the beginning -- since dont we not even know how zombie-festation started or do we and i forgot -- and it doenst take just the bite but rather trauma - and someone else thinks that jenner told rick he's immune...i dont know if i buy this one but if he is then doesnt that makes f*cktard carl immune too cuase rick gave him his blood whne he was shot...god i can't stand carl....0 -
Yea zombie Shane was fast and loud and Rick never hrard him lol cant wait till Sunday. I would so trip Lori and Carl lol0

He's just a kid growing up in zombieland. Cut him some slack. Otherwise, I think your theory is right on about everyone is just already infected. I don't know about Rick being immune though. It wouldn't seem to matter even if he was, if a zombie bites your face off you're going to die anyways. These things don't seem to take little nibbles here and there.0 -

I don't think everyone is already infected. I think maybe Shane became infected when he cut himself when he was trapped on the school bus with the knife he had already stabbed several zombies in the head with... Remember he did it to sort of drive them crazy as he killed them one by one. There were signs it was already affecting his brain, like when he would sort of grab his head and be nutty when he was in the shed with the boy he wanted to kill.0 -

I think the only thing effecting his brain at that point was Lori.0 -
I think Lori's baby is the key to the whole show. I think newborns will have natural antibodies to fight the infection but it will be a struggle to keep them alive...0

Watching the marathon today leading up to the finale. I am really going to miss this until season 3 starts!
AND EVERYONE IS INFECTED! When you die no matter how you die you will turn into a zombie unless your brain is destroyed. I think that's been shown pretty clearly through-out the show. Someone dies, you gotta shoot them in the head or they will turn.0 -

Super pumped too, been watching as well (when the kids are out of the room).
I am happy with the small twists with the "are we already infected" question, but if that becomes forefront to the story next season, I will be little disappointed. That's not really what the Walking Dead is about to me. It doesn't matter how it started or how it could be cured. None of that matters anymore because they are beyoned the point of no return. It's a story about survival and what it takes and what you will do to keep going.0 -

I don't think its ever really going to be forefront but the question will always be there. There will always be someone who is trying to make sense of it. (character wise)0 -
Has anyone else noticed that the sponsors - or commercials are for life insurance. I'm sensing some irony here.
My theory. Is they are going to all wake up and be in purgatory.. aka, Lost.
I'd like to see them battling the zombies and then have the group of 30 survivors come to their rescue so they have to mingle with them. Be interesting to see who survives and who zombies out tonight. Popping my corn and waiting patiently.0 -

That was the most epic intro shot too. I love the silouttes of the armless zombies on the chains.0 -

That was awesome!
This episode did frustrate me a bit though. Carol, Lori and Carl all really got on my nerves this episode.
I do like the new Rick though. That ending speech was pretty hardcore.0 -
apparently I need to read the comics to figure out who this Michonne character is.... Any chance someone would like to provide some background on her... Loved the zombies on chains but was freaked out on how she can control them. Very dark looking.0
