Spoiler!

She used to fence when she was younger. She looted the sword from a neighbor who collected them after the zombie apocalypse. Plus, she's been killing zombies and swinging it around for over a year. Practice makes perfect so they say.

Yea, they need to do a better job of filling in her character. She's pretty one dimensional right now. All she does is scowl and say about 2 words per episode.

Agreed. She's not very likeable as a character except when she's swinging her sword.

I mean, I know the whole comic storyline with the Governor, and I'd still probably rather stay and hang out with him than Michonne with the way they're portraying her. She's extremely unsympathetic and flat.

So what were we supposed to take away from the scene where Daryl visits the grave? Assuming it was supposed to be Carol's grave, there seems to be two possible conclusions:

1) Carol's dead and they buried her (but they never bothered to show the viewer her body)

- or -

2) Carol's missing and presumed dead (in which case why expend the effort to dig a hole only to fill it back in?)

Either way, it seems they've handled the whole Carol situation pretty sloppily. Unless I just completely missed something somewhere.

Personally I believe #2 to be correct, and agree with your sentiment.

Or 3) They found a mostly-eaten body that they thought was Carol's, and buried it.

Or 4) It was a symbolic burial plot. After all, didn't they have a grave also for Lori? They definitely didn't retrieve a body for that one.

And smashing open windows. Overall, most of the things they do are dumb.

Seriously.

Maggie is in a house she doesn't know, with no weapon in hand, wondering around like derp derp derp. How have they survived that long? I would always have a weapon in my hand on a trip like that, ALWAYS!!!!

Yep, I turned to the wife and was like, "WTF? Why isn't she at least doing a walk-through first?!?!"

I like that outfit on Maggie, though.

Speaking of the day care center ... I knew they wouldn't have the guts to do what I wanted them to do there.

I was glad they didn't.
