Herschel lives!!!!!!

I knew the prison guys had to go. The main guy, knew he was going to be trouble from the start. I thought it was hilarious how they were beating up the walker like it was a prison riot instead of just going for the head as Rick instructed. The looks on Rick, Daryl and T-dawg's faces was priceless.

So Rick is completely shut down when it comes to Lori. Wow, he was cold as ice. Ah oh well.

Anybody wondering how Daryl will react when it's revealed that Meryl still lives?

O.M.G. The Zombie Prison Beat Down.

I was in tears! That was done perfectly. Still makes me laugh just thinking about it!

I'm kinda with Rick on this one. He tried being Mr. Nice Guy, Mr. Democracy, and look where it got him. I think Rick is still there, but shut down for now. He showed a glimpse of warmth with Lori until she tried to get even closer and he was so kind with Herschel.

I'm so glad Herschel is still alive.

I'm watching "Talking Dead" now... I love hearing about the episodes... (esp. "In Memoriam" )

It was fun watching it on FB with you last night, NBJ!

I had a bizarre zombie dream last night...

I had a bizarre zombie dream last night...

You too? I had a dream that "walkers" were in my house..I could hear them muddling around downstairs and all I had to defend myself was a letter opener and a hammer. I hid in my closet and held my breath when two of the walkers came into my bedroom. They left without noticing me but the third walker found me and I had to repeatedly stab in the head to kill it. Then I shot downstairs and ran outside looking for a gun, or a machete and all of the guns left in the street had no bullets. So I'm running around swinging my hammer at zombie's heads. I finally found a group of live humans and they were shooting the walkers...I was trying to tell them to not use the guns but to use other weapons since the walkers can hear the shooting and will come in herds. And do you believe that they wouldn't let me have a gun nor a machete? I had to go fiend for myself. It was a bit scary because there was no technology, no phone, no electric, nothing and I was all alone. I guess I got a dose of what it feels like "in that world".

That's why I watch the show with every light in the house on

No nightmares for me!

It was fun watching with you to chocolate1

In my dream, I was fighting with Rick and those guys... in my house.

As fast as we fought them off, more would pop up.

Rick and I could not agree on how to handle them.

That zombie/prison beatdown was straight out of Chappelle ep. I could see Ashy Larry playing T-Dog

I am loving this season so far. I actually was lucky enough to meet IronE Singleton here in the Scranton area last month. He seemed like a very cool, genuine person. Very nice to everyone, took time to speak w/ people. He was also funny as hell. He was awesome. Ok, I'm done geekin' out now.

That sounds cool.

What was he doing in Scranton?

Well, we had a sort of zombie convention called Infect Scranton. It took place over 3 days and included a zombie pub crawl, a marathon in which you'd be chased by zombies, and a convention at my old high school where there were several vendors, and actors from Romero's night of the Living Dead, and a few from the Walking Dead. IronE of course, and the little girl zombie w/ the teddy bear from the very first episode, and Madison Lintz who played Sophia. Oh, and the lady who played Morgan's zombie wife from season 1. they had a "Walking Dead panel" where the actors took questions from the audience. Irone was very entertaining.

I was digging this episode too. So far, this is turning out to be a pretty good season. I hope it keeps this pace with the zombies & drama 50/50.

I watched it last night too - certainly up their game after season 2...

but the helecopter in the 'comng next week' montage... it's got me worried... there was one helecopter in the first episode but that was it... please don't ruin it chaps

Why is the title of this episode 'sick' it should have been 'you idiot' once for that fight scene, really, stabbing several times in the belly and it still takes you all forever to remember what you were told, another the one who tried to chicken out and got bit, oh sure let's just back down a dark hall in a building full of zombies, and last but not least, the twit who just immediately tries to kill the first instance of outside human contact after, what, 10 months, of being locked in a room, just because, he deserved what he got, idiots.

Tell us how you really feel Morning.

They are kinda losing me. I know it always had a certain element of cheese but this last episode was mucho cheesy with whole Hershel thingy.

And it seems like some of the things that they were so worried about like ingesting zombie blood has totally been forgotten. Like Glenn kissing zombie goo covered what's-her-face's shoulder/neck.

I know right Erin!? I was thinking the same thing.

I've had that issue all along. The start the whole hack-a-walker scenario and I'm thinking "BLOOD SPLATTER CONTAMINATION!!!"

It's for convenience and yeah, it is lazy storytelling.

The "science" of what turns you into a zombie and what doesn't has always been sketchy at best. The writers seem to have a very tenuous grasp on it. I'm willing to look past it, though, because it really seems like a MacGuffin anyway--at least if the other plot and storytelling devices are strong enough to overshadow it. And that's where the show is failing, for me. Plus, the show really needs to start delivering more tense and scary moments.

Now that this is the No. 1 show on TV, I'm hoping they step up their game in a major way.
