The Walking Dead

That episode was hard to watch. It was really good, though.

I haven't seen Rick for weeks. I'm having withdraws.

wow, that was a good episode. I think Carol did the right thing, with Lizzie and Tyreese, next week looks good.

that was one of the most intense things ive ever seen on tv in 37 years. my heart was aching... what a terrible terrible awful thing poor Carole had to do. Lizzie... amazing actress. i'm still stunned at the whole thing.

I don't think I could have waited that long. I think when I came upon what happened, I would have shot her then and there.

i figured something like this was gonna happen..the beginning of the episode things just got worse looking for their survival..both were totally not ready for this world...Carol is becoming one of my fav characters..i think id follow her and Daryl and not Rick and Carl if i had to choose...

Glenn's a good recon guy..and good scavenger...if i had him minus maggie he'd be ruthless when needed to be as well :)

He is only ruthless when there is someone to fight for, like Maggie...

Fooled by a high school teacher, and made turn away by someone that he just met from a mission that would be all important ? Douchebag.

Especially when the little psycho drew on her. As soon as she lowered her gun, mine would have come up.

Remember during the raid on the prison, what the Governor did to the little girl that he loved who was brought to him in her mother's arms ?

Purely mechanical.. You need that kind of cold when shit goes down.

Don't look at the flowers!

 

Good writing on last night.

kids in zombie world dont mix well....how will they ever repopulate the world with humans..

excellent writing. excellent acting.

I was saying that to Mr. G last night. how are children coping with what is expected of them? I suppose it depends on their make-up. Carl had some moments but he seems ok right now. Mika was fragile, but what might have hardened her? And Lizzie - I'm sure there was something going on before all of this - but what made her snap? did one of her best friends get turned and put down or was she just never understanding of the reality?

Yes, but with another set of kids,

Kill the threats first, then repopulate.

Lord of the Flies time   

what if the zombies start reproducing?

We would need to wear rubbers instead of them , if that were the case.  

I enjoyed last nights eppie. And, by enjoyed, I mean, sitting in my chair, feet off the ground, clutching a blanket to my face, in case I needed to cover my eyes.  

It about gave me a freaken heart attack.   We all speculated that Lizzie, was a little psychopathic, but I did not expect her, to kill her sister to prove a point. That point being wrong.



Carol did what she had to do.  Did she like it?  Nope.   Will she feel guilty about it?  Probably, not.    She probably feels guilty, for not seeing what Lizzie was becoming,  if she had  Mika might still be alive.   On The Talking Dead,  they called Carol  Pragmatic.    I agree with that.  She did what had to be done.  Lizzie was a threat to everyone,  her view of reality, was skewed, and she saw nothing wrong with playing with walkers, or trying to turn her sister into one.   Just so she could "show" everyone that Mika would be the same, only a bit different.

Glen?  He is on a mission to find Maggie, and like when he was held prisoner by the Gov and Meryl, he is going to everything he can to save/find Maggie.    That includes being one bad ass Mo-Fu.  

I read briefly about the kids from the comics.   Kinda glad, I have not read the comics.  

One thing I don't understand is Tyresse. He told Karen he did not like killing the walkers, face to face at the fence. He then said, he did not like killing walkers, out on the road either. He did not kill the walker, on the railroad track, because, Lizzie said, "we don't always have to kill them" Tyresse only kills walkers when he has to, which is admirable, but unrealistic, in the ZA. He stayed in the house, while Carol killed Lizzie, honestly, I think he should have been there, with her, to lend support.

lol, they already have. Every time, one of them bites a human, they make a new zombie. Unless, someone kills the zombies brain.

biting is foreplay   

 

nice thoughts Iggy. I hadn't really thought about Tyrese staying in the house to let Carol do the deed. kind of like how my dad always put our sick rodents "down" and we all hid in the house.
I suppose it just shows that the characters aren't all robotic-tough-desensitized ... yet. it's been a year and a half.
That said - someone who doesn't like to kill walkers - has a very odd and messy way of doing it when he has to lol

I'd do it for shits and giggles

On the other hand, if by "reproducing", you mean creating more of you...you know that's exactly what they're doing   

Interesting though.....through all 4 seasons, for all the talk of zombies eating brains, I don't recall seeing one brain being feasted upon..

just look at the flowers

"We have peaches"   

peaches and pecans!!!

Gin, I guess it does. Tyresse, does not kill easily, even when needed. It bothers him, when he does it. His humanity, may get him killed. I hope not. He is a good guy.

You mentioned, how your father put a sick rodent down. I remember, one time, a cat was napping in the shade of my fathers car, and he did not see her. She was pregnant, and his car ran over her head. She was brain dead, and my father, did what he had to do. And in that moment, he felt badly. He even cried.

ohhhh that's awful!!!       
I had to put some things down in my life too - it was difficult but it had to be done.
