Well then you definitely wouldn't like season 2 lol

The subtle differences between the comic & tv show are actually quite entertaining.
So what will the mid-season cliff-hanger be?
The barn break out or shane's death?
I think they gonna find that little girl...This episode better make it worth the wait or I'll stop watchin.
this episode was probably my favorite of the entire series so far.
It was a good ending, I wasn't expecting that.
i get what your saying. i hear this complaint a lot from people who have read the novels and then now are watching the tv show.
i just think people need to separate the two bc they really are only loosely related imo.
but im hoping to get the novels for x-mas so maybe ill start complaining too soon enough.
but on to this past episode. that shit was badass. shane is the fucking man. they live in a fucked up world and you can't fuck around and act like shit is all rosy, many things need to be done that people wish they didn't but you need to act accordingly to survive.
its like what happened to that rugby team that crashed in the chilean mountains in real life. they had to eat the dead bodies eventually to survive until they were rescued. surely no one wants to do that stuff but to live in certain situations you need to buck up.
shane is an asshole but he's a survivor. you can't be friends with everyone in a zombie apocalypse.
Shane is going off the deep end though. Dale should have shot him.
They should really give some of the extra character's more lines, or have them get killed.
i actually forget that rick is the main character in the comics when i watch the show. it seems they focused on everyone else this season.
Major plot hole though, not even a day after they put a little zombie girl in the barn a group of people arrives looking for a little girl and you don't bother to asks if it's the same person.
i would imagine that type of world would weight on peoples mind. but he is looking legit psycho at times. regardless dale trying to bury those guns was fucking stupid. what the hell is he thinking, those things are necessities.
kinda but not really. otis was the one who dealt with that stuff and he died virtually right away when they got there. we dont know who put her in there and how much the rest of hershals people know about who got put in there. it seemed like they tried to put everyone they found in there but it was otis who did most of it. if he put the girl in there and then died maybe no one else knew.
but even if they all did know its pretty obvious why they wouldn't have told them. it would still be a secret if glenn didn't get a boner in the barn.
If a walker gets really hungry, might he eat some vegetables?
-The Walking Dead's Jon Bernthal in Talks to Join New Frank Darabont Pilot
Spoiler alert? We may need to get ready to mourn the death of Shane on The Walking Dead...
Jon Bernthal is reportedly in early talks to join Walking Dead executive producer Frank Darabont's new TNT series pilot L.A. Noir, according to Variety.
The show would chronicle the dangerous underbelly of Los Angeles in the '40s and '50s; namely, the battle between gangster Mickey Cohen and L.A. police Chief William Parker. Bernthal would portray L.A. cop Joe Teague.
Should Bernthal sign on, he would reunite with Darabont, who developed and executive-produced the first season of The Walking Dead before being ousted in July. It also could mean that Bernthal's Walking Dead character, Shane, is likely not long for this world, though he's outlived his comic book counterpart, who was killed off in Issue #6.
Could Bernthal be the mystery castmember who wanted out of his contract after Darabont left?
can't wait. looking forward to the second half of this season and the second season of game of thrones.
I had to stop watching this, I find it frustratingly slow for the most part. I don't need or want a direct adaptation of the comic series, but the plots and characters that are unique to the television series have generally been hokey and cliche. I think even without reading the comics, I'd still be lukewarm about the show. (The first season was ok, I gave up after like 3 or 4 episodes of this season)
Have the made it to the prison yet? Has Michonne joined the cast or am I just speaking gibberish?
@ pandemic- no michonne yet, goddamn it. but i think she'll be coming either the end of this season or in season 3. which i hope will take place at the prison.
and it is pretty slow, but so are the comics. i still like this season better than the corny as fuck gangbangers at the old folks home & cdc explosion finale of last season. those 2 episodes were shittastic.
@ ikke - otis put her in the barn and died pretty much as soon as rick & the posse arrived. so nobody even knew she was in there. kirkman answered that question on an episode of the talking dead.
Damn they had us waitin long enough for this mid season shit...hopefully its worth the wait.
I just hope the second half really picks up because they dragged their feet during the first.
how did this compare to season 1 I liked s1 but it seemed like they were streching by doing a second season
I really liked season 1, the only problem I had with it was that 6 eps was just too short. Season 2 on the other hand so far has been moving too slow for my likeing and it does feel like they're just trying to stretch it out without really moving the plot forward. I know that the walking dead is more a drama than an action series (having read the comics) but even the comics moved quicker than this. They have a lot of material to work from and there is plenty of great story to tell, they just need to pick up the pace from this point onwards otherwise I think they will lose a lot of viewers.
Check out the comic books if you like the show. You can get The Walking Dead: Compendium One on amazon for about $30. It consists of issues #1-48 (2003-2008). About 1,000 pages. Then you can buy them packaged into $20 books of 12 issues, or $10 volumes of 6 issues. It's now up to issue #93
back on tonight

Oh no they didn't !!

these niggas lost it. after last episode i dunno if i'm gonna be as invested in this show.
^^
Well that's how they pull in the females to watch the show
Sometimes it just feels like at some point a writer said, "oh shit, wasn't this show about zombies? Let's add some before we start shooting"
Michonne is one of the toughest female characters in any series yet I would not be surprised one bit if they went in the opposite direction with her.
Is that new human character that is going to start feuding with Rick coming next episode, or not until when the third season starts?

Fuck Yeah
best ep from this season ...cant wait to see where they take it.....this season was a wash just about .....do to amc giving less money to work with even tho the ratings are even higher then before ...hints why the whole season was mostly confined to the farm and less walkers ....hope they throw in the cash next season
^Yea
That episode definitely the biggest zombie scene filmed in the series. More then the pilot episode in ATL. I finally watched this last night. I was mad at some of the fake shit though like Hershel's unlimited ammo shotgun. The rendezvous point scene was realistic and dont forget this show is going by at a slower pace then in our reality obviously (a week to us = a day to them). I'm mad they havent done a frozen zombie in ground in the winter scene yet.
in all honesty, the second half of season 2 was by far the best this show has been.
most internet comments regarding this series show that most people think this show should be a romero zombie movie every week.
and they are wrong and misguided.
the show is about dealing with a zombie apocalypse. how to survive in one. therefore these motherfuckers do not want to see a zombie. they try to avoid them. and that makes sense.
yes, the first half of this season was slow, but then we had the barn reveal.
and the second half was just straight up good. the best this series has been by far.
and that finale was the shit.
michonne! the prison!
hell yeah!
season 3 im in!
