I guess this could be attested that most zombies become "weaker" the less they eat brains.

Just an assumption.

I noticed this two, and thought WTF? Maybe because of muscle deterioration?

In any event, the real WTF for me was that dumb **** kid Carl.

1. Shouldn't it be obvious by now that you don't go anywhere by yourself? ANYWHERE!!!!

2. Not clearing the area completely before hoping up on the bar. I wanted that little ****er to get bit so bad.

3. Standing with your back against some glass windows that could break because there are roughly a dozen or some zombies on the other side. Seriously, why not just rub yourself down with some A1 while you're at it.

You can't examine it too much because when you do there's no end to the nonsense, really.

My wtf was the hitchhiker. How the **** you going to live that long. Then gwt taken out on theroad like that. He was in pieces. He dropped his bag obviously to run faster. So how did he get caught by slow zombies. And if it was a horde how did he not see them?

Last episode: Zombies can't break through cheap, old glass at the restaraunt while Michonne and Carl hang out inches from them.

I’ve noticed that too. First season they were also running, sprinting after live flesh and now they’re just kind of shuffling around.
I think they’ve actually touched on this though. Remember when Michonne and Andrea were taken to Woodbury and the Governor and Milton were discussing the walkers Michonne kept? Milton mentioned that when they can’t feed they become more docile. The Governor asked “wouldn’t they starve” and Milton replied, “They are starving, they’re just doing it much more slowly than we do.”
I think they also expanded on this with the bar/restaurant patrons in the last episode and is why they were just sitting around until live flesh came in. During the after show they mentioned the writers had a long, drawn out debate as to whether the walkers would be milling around or resting and I think that is why they chose what they did.

Carl is definitely getting too big for his breeches, Rick had better rein him in a bit or he’s going to be walker bait.

I think it was Land of the Dead where some zombies also started dying off because of hunger.

Don't even get me started on the hitchhiker. First thing I noticed was his tin cooking/eating dish hanging from the backpack by a metal carabiner. That thing would make so much noise, you might as well be ringing the dinner bell for the zombies as you walk by.

And I wondered the same thing. The guy has made it this long and then all of a sudden is taken out for no reason in the middle of nowhere in the wide open woods. I mean, I know why the writers put it in there, but it just doesn't make any sense what so ever.

Maybe he (hitchhiker) had a really good spot in an underground bunker with a good supply of food and water. Supplies ran low after all this time, so he packed up his stuff and ventured out into an unknown world to try to find help, oblivious of how bad things really were, and how people that have been out there since it all started might react after what they have seen and been through.

Last episode was pretty good.

Was great seeing Morgan again; really sad about his son though. He should have killed his whore wife when he had the chance. That's just the world they live in now.

Speaking of that, seeing how cold everyone has become is pretty different as well. The hitchhiker was the most obvious indicator of that, but also when they got to Morgans fort. He ordered them to drop their weapons and Michonne said something to the effect of "we need that gun". They were fully prepared to do whatever it took to steal the mans weapon (and probably his only means of survival).

My opinion is that when Rick and Co. left him the second time, he just gave up and let the walkers take him. Suicide by Zombie, if you will.

blaise 03-07-2013 12:48 PM

The hitchhiker guy stuff I kind of let go. It doesn't seem plausible that he would be out there that way, but who knows what kind of random, unexplainable stuff you'd see if that was the state of the world.
Maybe someone left him there. Maybe he got turned out of somewhere.

A simple fix for the hitchhiker would have been to have him limping down the road.
