I thought she was going to push the Chinese kid into the zombie pit for a second. LMAO

Personally I'd like to see an entire episode on the night all hell broke loose,I was really getting into that in this last episode.

We need more zombies. Looks like that will happen, but i just like them getting into trouble and them having to find ways out.

I'm telling ya, this season needs a full-out farmhouse siege.

The first season is on sale at Target for $14.99 (DVD) and $19.99 (BR). Just an FYI.

you betcha. i got ready to by way of the donate, but it went to paypal. i'm not gonna give out real money. i don't trust these intrawebz. anybody know how i can give away some casino cash?

Blonde bitch needs to have her teeth knocked out for not listening.

I know. You could tell it was Daryl instantly, and he was still unaccounted for, so she is a total idiot. Plus the way she is treating Dale after he "saved" her is totally stupid. If she still wants to die...there are plenty of options available to her. No need to be a bitch to the guy who actually cares for her.

I didn't care for season 1 that much. It was hit or miss. However, I am totally digging season 2. I find that it's so much better.

if the blonde does 1 more stupid thing, she needs to be pushed off a cliff.

I say throw her in the barn with all the walkers and start taking bets on how long she lasts with just a baseball bat.

I didn't get how the old guy was like, "Oh we've all wanted to shoot Daryl."
He should have said, "You freaking idiot. I tried to tell you but you were a dumbass moron."

Daryl is the most badass guy they have and he's constantly sticking his neck out. He should have slapped her.

Killing Daryl would dramatically lower ALL of their chances to survive. He's a meal ticket for a dumbass like Andrea.

Give her the gun she kept crying about....and one bullet

Maybe he's hoping to get laid like his asian sidekick

This is just something I stumbled across on the net, I sure hope it's not real.

It's a major spoiler, so if you care about that kind of stuff don't look.

Not looking.

Just saw the episode. Andrea needs to take a ****ing dirt nap.

The show ruined that character. She's a badass in the comics.

It's almost like Darryl is her from the comics on the show. He's not in the comics, but he took that badass role.

Yea, I guess Daryl isn't even in the comics? But ironically he's become a fan favorite and apparently one of the writers favorites too.

That would be cool to see.

Not working...:doh!:

I did! I was wondering if he’d get a little sick or weird or something, but surely he wouldn’t go full on zombie cause he’s the coolest one.
I forgot about this thread. Have to remember to check it every week.
Totally agree, that blond chick needs to be killed. What a stupid bitch.
I know this is late, but I didn’t see anyone mention it…..my family had a chuckle about them burying the fat guy who died trying to get medicine for the kid. Remember they were stacking rocks? So what, they went back and got what was left? Wouldn’t he have been a zombie? I thought it was kinda funny in that it made absolutely no sense.
And yes, good LORD please stop the search already. Beat a dead horse much?!
Also, I thought it would have been so much cooler and thought provoking if they had shown Mearle with a missing hand instead of showing him with both.

They didn't go back for him it was just symbolic.

hmm, I don't remember them saying anything to that effect.

Well, he was devoured by zombies. They just made a marker in his honor.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure they didn't all go to their certain deaths to retrieve the dude's rotting mostly eaten corpse.

yeah that's basically the point I was trying to make. but hey, there's never been ANYTHING stupid or unrealistic on this show! my bad....

Worked for me.

Do you have a link? I can't see it either.

I can see it.

I can't.

does it work with the img tag taken off of it?

I see the location of the pic, but not the pic itself. I saw it from the original source page. Thanks.

I pasted the link. COOL! so that means....

It should be obvious.

No shit. They had a ceremony. Wouldn't you do something to honor the life of a loved one? They still have coffins for people known to be dead but bodies were never recovered.

Have you read the graphic novels?

So, over the last 2 days I've watched every episode. Netflix then on Demand. I've been laid up with a nasty cold/sinus infection so I decided I'd watch it.
I love it so far, the main characters are interesting and the zombies are done up really well.
Hopefully this show is on for a while.

with the ratings it has, its going NOWHERE!

This buildup better be worth it, more zombies please and danger

I'm really curious on what the "barn roundup" of the zombies are about.

My thanks to this thread since it got me started on this show.

It's obviously their friends, family, and neighbors. Beings Herschel the god freak thinks there will be a cure.

I love the absolute lack of logic in a zombie cure. These things are freaking decomposing from the moment they reanimate. Do they really thin they're going to "cure" them and return them to normal?

Yeah, makes no sense to me either. You can't cure dead.

Didnt that guy at th eend of season 1 explain that they are alive but the brain never came back completely its why they are mindless. Also, the country folks would hav eno idea. I could understand them being really religious and not wanting to completely kill them, but **** that, id take em out. lol

The one thing I never got about Zombies is why don't they eat each other?

I mean I know they're dead, and the flesh is rotting, but it's gotta stay good for a while right?

You'd think with all those Zombies in the barn, they would have eaten the new guy everytime they threw one in there.

I was just watching George A. Romero's Day of the Dead yesterday (which is underrated, IMO), the one where the crazy scientist is training the zombies to become docile and domesticated through a reward system (and is somewhat successful with one of them). Much in the same way that you teach and condition dogs, I guess I could see that being a possibility.

Uhhh, no... No organ function, just brain. Heart doesn't beat, no blood circulation, etc. They're rotting away. Hence theur slow movement and reflexes. The reason why it takes so long for them to wake up is because they have to get over rigor-mortis before they can move again. That process can take anywhere from 10-24 hours. In certain climates it takes less time. IE: extreme heat and humidity.
Don't ask me how I know this. I just do. (Ok,ok I have a lab set up where I keep zombies)

Well i know they said they had working digestive systems, so something is going on there. lol

No they don't. Their stomach fills up, but they do not poop.

I will answer this once and for all... Stand by.
Posted via Mobile Device

LMAO They talked on Talking Dead with the creator, that they do not poop. We know their stomach fills, b/c of the Woodchuck they found in one, and of course, where else would it go?

Something has to happen with it though, or they'd explode. Maybe their meals are broken down in the stomach and everything is absorbed to the body.

Ok, after considerable research there is no absolute consensus on whether or not Zombies have a working digestive system.
Most seem to think that your traditional zombies, (like the ones on this show) do not have a working digestive tract. However, their stomach produces enough acid to still break down their food and convert it to energy. Zombies can starve but their bodies will shut down and "hibernate" until a food source is located nearby. Otherwise it feeds upon itself adding to the decomposition process. If there is an abundance of food, a zombie will eat until it's stomach ruptures. They will then continue to eat and eat until they literally explode or until their jaw falls off from decomposition.

Another theory was that their digestive tract works through sheer force. They pack it down and it just forces itself through. Kind of like forcing sausage into casings.

A third, (preposterous) theory was that zombies are magical satanic beings that convert food into "Mana" which I find totally absurd.

Agreed very underated film.

In one of the episodes someone said they had working digestive systems i think. I may have to go back n watch the first season and find out.

Uhh...who cares if they poop?

Does nobody want to talk about the best episode since the pilot?

God damn that was good.

That was a good episode. The preview for next week looks good, too.
I don't know why they don't just stake out some land of their own? Can't they just mimic what Herschel is doing?

I think Shane is my favorite character.

Glenn might be #2 and Dale #3.

I loved that final Shane scene...that intensity and his crazy eyes. He's starting to look like a full-on sociopath. Dale better watch himself and mind his own business.

I don't know why they're wasting perfectly good chickens on zombies, though. It's not like they need nourishment to exist, right?

The characters are pretty much stereotypes, but that (and the conflict between them) is kind of what makes it so entertaining.

I think Herschel is making all the people at the barn play by his rules for letting them stay there.

Herschel is a reerun and thinks they're still alive.

Maybe he saw Shaun of the Dead, and has an XBox in the basement.

They may want to just think about grabbing everything there is from that drug store instead of going back again and again.

1. I hope the show doesn't turn into a bunch of love triangles.
2. Other than Shane and the old guy, the character development sucks.

I think Lori drags the show down the most. Every time she's on it's like, "Here we go, an emotional conversation."

Every female character is an emotional roller coaster. Even Herschel's hot daughter.

Andrea can't hit a swinging log (literally) shoots 1 walker and transforms into Calamity Jane. They make a huge deal out of keeping guns rationed and away from everyone. The 8 year old, sporting a gut shot, who just came off of veterinarian life support wants a gun and everyone's all "great idea".

Seems like they waste a lot of ammo, too.

Very inconsistent with the "noise brings the walkers to you." Shooting a few hundred rounds in the woods and Andrea goes walking off by herself in a hissy fit.

What can you do? I watch this show because I want to see someone get ****ing eaten.
It really needs to quit being such a soap opera and get back to what it was in the beginning... A Drama-Thriller-Horror.

+1

Yeah, this show is kinda starting to suck.

5 or 6 episodes this season, and the show has moved from point A (Sophia is missing) to point A (Sophia is still missing).

Lori to Rick "How dare you keep secrets from me"

Meanwhile not telling Rick that she is pregnant. Geh, I wanted a zombie to jump up and gnaw her scrawny little ass.

And I unfortunately think this show has HEROES syndrome. Started off amazing, but they have no idea what they are doing now. Seriously, how many episodes at the stupid farm, with the stupid girl missing. FFS, can we move on some.

And whats with everyone wondering off by themselves all the time? In the post zombie apocalypse environment, I wouldn't take a piss unless someone was there to make sure it was safe.

I think I'm there, too. The girl drama is getting to be a bit much, and they're stretching the hell out of Herschel's farm. But unlike many of you, I'm not getting the "steaming POS" feeling, yet. I still get the feeling it's all building up to something awesomely big.

I enter HEROES season one as evidence, with specific emphasis on the finale.

Its been mentioned before but the extended farm setting is probably because of the slash in budget. (less sets, etc....)

I think the writers need to realize that in todays internet spoiler age people are going to know or guess a lot of the major "surprises". You don't need 5 episodes to "shock" people with the barn having zombies. Everyone knows or has guessed it 3 episodes ago. I think everyone can guess what the mid-season cliffhanger surprise is going to be.

It's a zombie show. We don't need love triangles. Instead of character development, you have the characters growing more and more annoying. Does anyone care if Rick, his wife, Andrea, the redneck woman, or the black guy get eaten?

Does it bother anyone else that Darryl found a small closet where someone had obviously been sleeping but they never returned to it? Now the god damn doll is their best clue?

With fresh food - sardine cans in the garbage can. Why give up on that spot?
