Do something about it, sex addict.

It was so so. Whats gets me you had the farmers cute daughters running around the other original blonde and shane was worried about ricks old whore wife and the other guys can care less its the end of the world and there is or was decent young women around ::). It was a good show but is taking a down hill turn the characters make stupid choices and every turn. History has shown time and time again once society breaks the worst thing you have to worry about is other humans. That old dried up whore of ricks is getting old she is a unsatisfied bitch I would have left her for one of the younger women if I was rick or shane or the black guy or even hershel. They are a bunch of blubbering idots. Not one alpha male in the bunch.

Still trying to figure out why that film is in B & W, it was made in the 60's?
EL PACIFICO!

now gotta wait till fall again :-\
Who was the man who saved andrea ?
What does the prison mean at the end ?
:D

michonne should be cool.

they showed the prison at the end. as thought, that's where randell's boys are.
i'm sick of lorie and carl. those two fucked up season 2 for me. i can live with lorie dying and rick hooking up with andrea. chick got down in the woods by herself, is much stronger than lorie or carol.
daryl is alway a bright spot.
t-dog loses his head, so i'm guessing it will be mich, or he'll hook up with her since she's black. one or the other.
the ending was so so, except for mich.

good to know though ! :D

Great movies...

nothing i posted is directly connected to the comics, am assuming, know people haven't read the comics, so i staying away from that. you saw the ending, so you know randell's boys are out there. i'm assuming that's where those 30 or so guys are.
t-dog died in the comics. ok, that's a spoiler. i'm guessing he and mich hook up. you the writers called him "t-dog" ::), so they still think and write blacks are ghetto. other black woman killed herself, so maybe this one and t-dog conncect.
just guessing.

I heard about the person with the sword for a while......SWEET
Horrible character whom I've never liked in the comic. To comic book for my tastes.
-

::)
Can't be anymore comic book than Carl and Lorie. She's out cold in a car but wakes up, just in time not to get bit. and good ole Carl can pull away from a zoombie who grabs his ankle without a scratch but the same zoombie can split Dale in half and take down a cow. she's fresh air after a stale time on the farm. And her sword training or anyone with fencing training makes sense killing zombies silently vs hugging and killing them up close with butter knives. But i guess she's too comic. ::)
it also makes sense to kill off your scent with two jeeve zombies on chains vs spreading their insides on your exposed skin with a possible sore. but that's to comic too. ::)
-
I wasn't defending Lori or Carl so why waste space bringing them up. My comment was directly addressing a specific post referring to Michonne. Do I have problems with other characters and elements of the plot, of course. I happen to agree that Dales death was ridiculous and an anticlimactic and unnecessary end to a integral character who had a lot more to give to the show and deserved a better more meaningful death.
Sorry, but I personally think a hooded katanna wielding character is silly and very comic book superhero. Her introduction was corny and over-dramatic, detracting from what little realism the show has. The character herself is a pretty textbook case of strung together angry chick cliches. But if you like Buffy the zombie killer so be it. Maybe it's a black thing or perhaps it's not even about race but some kind of a fanboy thing, maybe both. Fan boys seem to be easily entranced by shiny objects and any woman holding a weapon, particularly those of an android or nonhuman origin.
-
No one has touched on the guy in the RV....WHY leave any window open....why not do a 'drive by' so they can just jump on the fucking roof. Personally the whole Carl character is getting a little too 'mamas boy' for me.
To me, why wouldnt you think to go to a prison or a military base. Talk about a stock hold of weapons, food, and safe haven.
I dont think that the prison is where Randalls guys are. I think that was just done to show that they are so close to somewhere safe....
-
No sorry dont watch it, iam older then 14.
-
The horde was ready to stumble past the farm until Carl ::) shot Shane. Another smooth move by "Carl." ::)
-
Carl and Lori are both pieces of shit.

Yup...WTF...who would be so stupid as to leave a window open, and then park the damn thing.
I think Randalls group is a thing of the past

Why were people upset with Rick for killing Shane. Bunch of fucken assholes. Shane set Rick up to murder him and they are still upset with him? Bunch of liberal shit bags.
-
One thing that still has me wondering....
Opening scene....first episode....Rick wandering around sheriffs outfit, shoots the kid. Where does that fall in this whole timeline?

I don't know if its a liberal thing or lazy writing, either way I didn't care for that part either. Come on, everybody knew Shane was unstable and had it out for Rick. What did they expect Rick to do, let Shane murder him for christ sake. Geez, some people are never happy.
-
Episode was decent, and love the introduction of Michone.
But, if we wanted to nitpick:
If everyone just got in their vehicles, they all would have survived. No on really had to get caught.
Herschel's shotgun fired about 12-15 rounds without reload, which is ridiculous.
-
Lori and Carl need to die they ruined all of season 2. I did like Rick finally growing a set at the end, just took killing the best charter in the show to do so.

Yeah enough with that bullshit love triangle and be a good daddy shit...at times it like "Days Of Our Lives" with some Zombies..hopefully the writers are done with that shit. I appreciate. The level of writing and character development...but it doesn't have to be so boring...she's a mousy little bitch with bee sting boobs..off with her head
-

Yeah, I noticed that, too. Fuckin' guy was blasting that shotgun like it he had a backpack on full o' shells with a direct feed. ::)
Anyway, killer episode.
I figure the prison will be their place to get safe and set up camp.

Agreed. The last half of this season (after the break) has been good, but the first half was pure soap opera. Would probably have been fine watching it in a weekend on DVD but week to week got boring...

He took 158 shots with his shotgun until he decided to reload at a conveniently dramatic moment.

You realize they are going to hangout at the prison for all of season 3 until something runs them off for season 4. The comic is still a work in progress, so they can't run thru all the material. I think people miss that.
Guess what, Days of our Lives half of season 3 also?
Really, in an zombie apocalypse, who the fuck is going to be going out looking for action? the farm made sense. that's about as real as it gets.
They just need to off lori or fucking carl.

I agree with you on Lori and Carl, those two should die ,
Lori should give birth and die during the process and rick puts a bullet in her head with on hand and cuts the umbilical cord with the other , and then carl thinks about raising a gun again at his father but the thought is short lived because Rick already blew carls brains out out of his skull
and whats up with T-dawg? how is it possible a black dude could still be alive this long without KFC or fresh watermelons ;D ;D sorry G-thang just fucking with you......
i didnt like how they made T-dawg look like a scared bitch, and him trying to live the dream running away with 2 white woman .. thats some racist shit.
and Carol that lady sure is loose with the lips now .. no wonder her dead husband used to slap her ass around, but is quick at running her mouth, if she was better at shutting up and looking after her daughter sofia would still be alive
-
The one with the Rock was better than the one with Joe Don Baker. Didn't know they made a tv series out of it, interesting.

I can only hope Carl or Lori get eaten alive and torn to pieces, I'd pay to watch that episode ;D
-
Agreed on Carl and Lori. Carl is a little whiny bitch, there is simply no time for being a little wimpy bitch child in the zombie apocalypse...even if you are the age of a child it's time to grow the fuck up, throw away your binkie, put down the toys, pacifier and start being an adult.
Lori....fucker her. She needs to be devoured by a pack of zombies, or shot or buried alive or whatever. I love it, she tries tries to tell Rick that Shane is a threat to the group and that Rick should take care of him and that Shane is going to try and oust Rick by force and on and on and on.....SHE TOLD HER HUSBAND THIS. And when Rick kills Shane....IN SELF DEFENSE...............Lo ri, being a dumb bitch, get all indignant about it, gets pissed at Rick and has the gal to give him the "DON'T TOUCH ME!!!" body language.
The dude just killed his best friend...the same best friend that tried to murder him on more than one occasion, the same best friend that LORI told him to kill to save the group. Yet Lori is super pissed at Rick. Yeah, real nice.
Plus....DARYL AND GLENN found out what happened. So what is the big fucking deal?

One thing we agree on, the bitch and the son have to go. I skipped through parts of episodes with those two all season.
T-Dog will hookup with Mich, who will be a strong character like Shane. that's only reason the directors didn't have him eat a piece of tainted fried chicken
As i said in the beginning, carl should have gone off in the woods.
If anything, you'd want sofia and amy to stay alive at all costs. How do you repopulate the world with all the young women dying.
It's like BayGBM is directing this show. ;D
-
Plus....DARYL AND GLENN found out what happened. So what is the big fucking deal?
Daryl don't give a fuck. Glenn is a gossiping bitch, can't keep his mouth close, always has to have a conversion about stuff like a woman.
The creators don't have a good connection with the audience, or they would reduce Lori and Carl's TV time. Carl could have died from Otis' gun blast and Lori should have been bitten in the car. I would have forgotten either one by the next episode.
They are poorly cast.
-
The eposide was excellent! Can't wait till next season. It's about time that guy stood up and told who was boss. That hooded creature is played by some odd looking black chick and I can't wait till they get to the prison. RAPE TIME BITCHES.
-
Why were people upset with Rick for killing Shane. Bunch of fucken assholes. Shane set Rick up to murder him and they are still upset with him? Bunch of liberal shit bags.
I don't get how they read the script and thought this would be believable. Rick tried to set things right with Shane. Shane is the one that planned on killing Rick. Lori actually coaxed Rick into dealing with Shane but Rick tried to set things on a right path instead. Lori wanted Shane gone. This whole part is horrible writing. There's nothing the audience can see where Rick has made any mistakes in this and it's clear Shane should come off as in the wrong and the one who brought about his own death. Even Daryl and Glenn figured out Shane was up to no good with what went on last and told everyone. Yet they're upset over the way Rick has handled things?
The show is pretty awesome despite this so I will continue watching.

Daryl understands where Rick is coming from. Everyone else is a bunch of pussies except for Herschal and Andrea (who I still kind of hate). I thought Rick was going to be stone cold after killing those to clowns in the bar with nary a blink of an eye......instead he was a bigger bitch than before. I'm hoping he nuts up after his ultimatum speech at the camp at the end. Everyone wants to split up, some want to stay....bunch of idiots.
And Carl....oh Carl....it's time to die.

Agreed. I was totally bewildered by Lori after Rick told her what happened. I mean, really? YOU TOLD YOUR HUSBAND TO OFF SHANE EARLIER. So fucking frustrating, I know the writers want us to care for the characters but I can't stop rooting for them to be slaughtered ruthlessly by zombies. The whole Lori shrugging Rick off at the end and getting super upset was so dumb...it made no sense. It made less sense then Lori going to Shane while he was working on the windmill watchtower and spilling her heart to him. Great timing Lori! Screw with the insane and violently aggressive guy some more when he is at the breaking point!
Hopefully this is a turning point.
-
Everyone had a feeling Shane killed Ottis, then he killed the kid by snapping his neck, fucked his best friends wife, tried to kill Rick , not once, not twice, but 3 times!
-
The show should revolve around 2 people Rick and zombies, the rest are characters that should die and be replaced every episode
Rick should be to walking dead, what chuck Norris was to texas ranger

I think the more popular a show is, the more the writers think they can get away with obvious mistakes. Battlestar Galactica was like that to the point where it almost became a jumbled mess with contradictions.

Agreed again!
BG was pretty awesome for most of it's run even with continuity and writing holes.
But yeah, you had to kinda ignore plenty of crap as the series was coming to an end.

That kid is annoying as fuck...and like someone else said...what does he have an invisibility cloak? he pops up at the damnedest fucking times, and it's actually predictable and annoying at this point, and I hope he gets brutally killed.
Aside from minor nits to pick with continuity and "realism" (please..it's a zombie apocalypse) , the show is killer..best show in a while IMO
-
My memory is not kicking in....when they were at the CDC....was it Rick or Lori that the guy who was left whispered something into their ear.
I was fucking thrilled when that one pansy old fart got his shit rocked by the zombie Carly fucked around with. Just ONCE I want Rick to lay a smack down on that little bitch of a kid.
Couldn't agree more....Glenns girl has more balls than him.....
Heres another thing...what up with the helicopter???? Why not get a tank and run every zombie over?? Why not grab a BETTER FUCKING CAR than that red v-8 gas guzzler????
-

And I just don't like the name "Carl" it's annoying
PS..Kid has a face you just want to punch....am i right? they could have picked a so much more likable kid, it has to be intentional that he's not some doe-eyed cute kid, with a great smile that everyone would love

i can't stand that show but i watch it anyways just to laugh at the horrible dialogue and acting

One thing that still has me wondering....
Opening scene....first episode....Rick wandering around sheriffs outfit, shoots the kid. Where does that fall in this whole timeline?
Not sure what you mean...That happened in the first (or one of the first) episode(s). He had gotten out of the the hospital and the father and son helped him then he went on his way and came across that scene where the little girl zombie was walking around...she came toward him and he shot her.
and Carol that lady sure is loose with the lips now .. no wonder her dead husband used to slap her ass around, but is quick at running her mouth, if she was better at shutting up and looking after her daughter sofia would still be alive
They seem to be setting up some sexual tension between Carol and Daryl but Daryl is afraid to get close to anyone because he was affected by the death of Sophia.
The person that needs to die soon: Carl
The person that needs to outlive everyone: Daryl

Actually, The scene with the girl happened.....then they did the thing like "six weeks earlier" type of thing where Rick got shot by the criminals. They have never really placed where in the whole scheme of things that was. Go back and watch the first episode..unless I am seriously missing something.

I think the shooting of the girl happened shortly after Rick left the guy's house that nursed him back to health shortly after he left the hospital.

By FAR. That's a given. The writing on Breaking Bad is STELLAR. The best writing today is in cable television and reg tv, not movies( separate issue, I realize WD is cable TV as well). Breaking Bad is top notch, all the way.

The first 3 seasons are on Netflix. I was compelled to watch season 1 through 3. The writing is that good.
It wasn't because I identified with the characters. It was the writing. The main character is, truth be told, an amoral sociopath.
However, good writers can create empathetic characters whom the audience can identify with and be mesmerized by, regardless of their flaws. I suspect "Dexter" has the same phenomenon, although I've never seen it.
-
Some of you guys have brought up some good points. I'll throw in my opinion.
First season was awesome. It was nonstop on your feet action, suspense, etc. That's why this show was going to be a blockbuster. The ending of season one at the CDC was kick ass. In fact the entire season in and around the city of Atlanta was a great idea and could have been played up a little more. They should have spent more time developing the characters in a city than on a stupid farm. BUt the farm could have been done up much better. Way too much stupid drama in the second season. The whole pregnancy thing with Lori and Rick. Typical best friend antagonism and is it his baby or Rick's etc. Come on that's been done a hundred times in these situations.
The ending was a huge let down. Other than the introduction of Michonne and the visual of the prison at the end there was nothing exciting leading into next season. Very very mediocre. The comic books are actually really good. And if you follow the comic books and if season three is anything pertaining to them the prison is NOT where Randall's friends are. In fact in the comic books there are only a handful of people, 4-5 guys staying there. If season three does follow the books and we are stuck with everyone at the prison interacting with a handful of 4 guys or whatever it's going to be a very boring season 3. In fact they'll probably spend half the season just getting to the prison.
Like some of you have said the whole Michonne character is way too comic bookish and detracts from the realness and grittiness of the entire story. In the commic book there is some black ex athlete that falls for her and they both end up becoming some sort of bad ass duo or whatever. Typical.

Oh please. What garbage. Breaking Bad is like everything else. It's great the first couple of seasons. That show has gone down hill and fast. There are so many unbelievable and yeah right aspects to that show it's crazy. Writing isn't any better than any other shows on cable t.v. The Wire was probably the best cable series with each and every season different and better. I never got tired of watching that show. And Jessie couldn't be any more annoying of a character to watch. With his whiney litte bitch voice.
Breaking Bad got old real quick. Same with Dexter. Was good for a couple of seasons and then it just got so unbelievable.
-
Another great show that has kind of sputtered was Justified. Season one and two were great. This season is boring and I've barely been able to stomach watching it.
Sons of Anarchy was another great show that has just become stupid, drawn out and silly. Other than the Wire and Spartacus I can't think of any shows that really last well into their 3rd, 4th, 5th years. But then some stupid ass show like Friends goes on for a decade. Must be the intellect of the America public.

Oh please. What garbage. Breaking Bad is like everything else. It's great the first couple of seasons. That show has gone down hill and fast. There are so many unbelievable and yeah right aspects to that show it's crazy. Writing isn't any better than any other shows on cable t.v.

I haven't seen beyond season 3 of BB and Dexter... I haven't seen at all.
Breaking Bad was something someone else recommended. It was something I didn't want to like...but did....and ended up voraciously watching all 3 seasons.
I haven't watched BB again since. In other words, I just watched each episode once. It did strike me afterwards that I have no desire to watch any episode a second time(unlike some movies I watch multiple times). This is perhaps due to the total unidentifyablity :P(real word?)/relatabilty of the characters(beyond the series context) or absence of any moral message I could relate to in the series. Nonetheless, I did take the time to watch the first 3 seasons once.
Bryan Cranston's acting does figure somewhere into the equation.

Sorry, fuck that, the last season of Breaking Bad was so fucking kick ass. Watching the evolution and background of Fring and how it ended, holy shit. That was awesome! Good writing!!! You didn't question it, you wanted to know it.. It worked great!

That kid is annoying as fuck...and like someone else said...what does he have an invisibility cloak? he pops up at the damnedest fucking times,

Disagree on Justified. Season 2 was poor, with Raylan going from Jack Bauer level bad assery in Season One, to every single Bennett getting the upper hand on him. This season has returned to the forumula - one on one confrontations with great dialogue.
As for Anarchy, the writers should not have written such a tangled storyline if it wasn't going to end with Clay getting destroyed.

Season 4 is really good. 5 sucks. 6 was OK.

The look on Lori's face when Rick told her he killed Shane should tell him all he needs to know about her "loyalty". Rick should merk Ms ride another man's dick before you're even cold in the ground in her sleep and trade up. The the dumb trollop can't even keep an eye on her own kid who she's supposed to love so much.
I loved Rick's speech at the end- Hit the fucking bricks if you don't like how I run shit! >:(
Nobody moved. Rick is my favorite character now and I've always liked Herschel even when he was off about his hopes for a Zombie rehab program. ;D
Never read the comic so I'm skipping past some of these spoilers and hoping they deviate from the original story so that there are some surprises left.
Side note: ALPHA MALE is the most over used term in the last 4 - 5 years and it must be stopped!

Lori is just as annoying in the comic. It will be interesting to see how much the tv show deviates from the source material. I'm hoping they add a lot of new elements and jettison some of the hokey comic stuff but after introducing Michonne I have my doubts. The comic has a lot of flaws, namely hack kneaded writing and unrealistic goofy characters like Michonne but is still pretty good. I would recommend that anybody who hasn't read the comic not to do so as a lot of the plot twists and turns might be spoiled for you.

biggest piss off is how everyone acts all nonchalant all the time when there is man eating zombies everywhere.
groink mentioned the invisibilty cloak, where the fuck did the zombie come from that fucked up dale, jesus the guy was in the middle of a field for fucks sake
-
No shit....a FIELD.....ummm.....they make these zombie moan all the fucking time. They shuffle their feet.
My question is.....what if you fucked a zombie (with protection)??
Last question....where the fuck are off the dogs and cats??
My thinking is this....LIVE ON A DAMN YACHT....dont see any zombies of michael phelps

I always thought the same thing. Boats...and how come not one person has thought to grab some kevlar body armor ?...I would be wearing some sort of full body protection...I mean these people have nothing but time....I'd come up with something....if i had to spend weeks melting plastic and shit...it only has to be strong enough to withstand a bite or scratch...not very hard to do

Thumbs up...thumbs down?
I invite all getbiggers who aren't penii to discuss
I liked it. I actually thought it was the best episode I've seen since the series premiere.
Hershell's infinite ammo shotgun was dumb as hell. People scoring headshot after headshot from moving vehicles was also dumb. But it was high time the farm was overrun and the group moved on. I wonder if the prison we see is full of the undead? If they were all still locked up, it'd be trivially easy to kill the whole lot of them off, secure the prison's perimeter and, ipso presto, you've got an almost impregnable fortress. Zombies might be able to bash their way through a shitty old wood barn. Let's see a million of them get through iron bars and concrete :D
Of course, I'm sure the situation won't be that simple. Rick's crew will probably be too low on ammo to take the prison and twiddle their thumbs for awhile, trying to figure out what to do next.

Yeah the shotgun scene with Hershel was fucking lame. Same with the headshots like you mention. I think you didn't see as much fo that crap in the first season. Like I said I think the first season was so much better becasue it was so much more realistic.

Why dont these mother fuckers climb a tree?
build a tree house, these zombies cant seem to run so I cant imagine they have the coordination to climb a tree.
I just started watching and watched the marathon sunday. One thing I didnt really like was the ending with the chick that had two walkers chained to her with the arms chopped off.
The episodes ive seen so far have been pretty realistic(if zombie walkers actually existed, other than the tree thing) and this seems to take a pretty fantasy turn.
I dont think it will be a good move for the show if it does go that way.
Ill definitely make it a point to watch the other seasons before the next one starts.

LOL...........dude that would get real annoying if you had to come up and down out of a tree house all the time. what they should have done was build a medieval type moat or some huge ass barricade around the farm. Like huge ditches with spikes, WWII type barbwire type shit.

How about building a large brick/concrete wall. Doesn't take much time to do.

Yea sure, when you watch stuff like this you start asking why the hell didn't they just string trip wires around their location instead of always having someone on guard. These zombies just wonder mindlessly until they see a living person so setting up a trip wire warning system would seem logical. But don't forget that part of the fun of the horror genre has always been the audience engaging in the mistakes going on. Yelling out, "stab him again, he's not dead" or "Don't go in there, run for the car, get out of there!" or "get out of the house, just leave!" Good horror often intentionally engages the audience in character mistakes. If there are to many mistakes it does just become a joke so there is a balance which I don't think Walking Dead has a problem with.

Youre absolutely correct. There is a point where character ignorance goes to far and the audience loses sympathy for them. It's a very fine line that is easily crossed. I think WD did cross the line, or came awful close, with how the characters reacted to Shanes death. They knew, or should have, how unstable the guy was and that Rick really had no choice. Did the expect Rick to let himself be killed The writers choose to pursue and milk the drama instead of writing a more realistic reaction.

I agree with that, I kinda understand Lori's reaction b/c of their history etc but she was pushing for action and action happend.
I like the guy with the motorcycle(from the saints movies) he seems like he is ok with rick killing shane the rest seem kinda wack. Dont know how tdog will react I think he will be understanding of it.
Ill have to watch the first season so i know the ins and outs a little better though.

Thanks and I feel the same way about you, we make this place
hahahah
listen to this attention whoring queef

If I was the guy on the motorcycle, I would have went solo along time ago. He doesn't need any of them. He's totally self sufficient.
-
I think the more popular a show is, the more the writers think they can get away with obvious mistakes. Battlestar Galactica was like that to the point where it almost became a jumbled mess with contradictions.
From what the writers/director have said, they want to keep it moving at a rapid pace. One of the reasons they fired the first director. He wanted to focus more on the characters and less zombie killing. Whereas the higher ups wanted to keep the audience guessing by killing off what looks like would be major characters and having more zombies...
-
agreed, but id rather be inconvienced than have to constantly be looking over my shoulder for zombies
the problem with the tree house idea is that they would all keep standing around and eventually you have a whole horde of zombies by your tree house and you can't get down....unless you wanna go full on forest moon of endor tree village, but that doesn't seem practical.
honestly i liked it at first but the stupidity of the characters is getting fucking annoying, that little carl turd can't go a day without fucking some shit up, stealing daryl's gun and not even using it on the quicksand zombie wtf is wrong with that kid, and the mom is fucking annoying too "oh should i keep the baby or not" maybe you shouldn't have slept with shane you dumb skank. shane would have been a good character too if he didn't have attitude problems and have to be the alpha dog constantly, shoulda just left with andrea when they had the chance. but yeah the kid is fucking annoying i was hoping he would stay dead when he got shot but nope.
i hated that they spent like 4 epidoses twiddling their thumbs about what to do with that randall weasel, as far as i'm concerned they should have put him out of his misery right then and there when he broke his leg, looted his shit and left. dale was alright until the end when they started bitching about human rights and shit, and "voting" on whether or not to execute him, dale's whole spiel about societal standards and whatnot, seems like his priorities are out of whack.
let's see what else.....that glenn kid is annoying, total pussy, can barely kill a zombie and he's causing problems with hershel's daughter, i know there isn't much pussy to go around but come on, the bitch is INSANE.
another thing that bothers me, they said everyone's infected because it's an airborne disease, so i'd imagine a single bite or scratch from a zombie wouldn't be a big deal as long as you don't die from it..
also they didn't bother fortifying anything, wtf at least like someone else mentioned run a tripwire or rope, tie it to a bell or something. jesus christ bear grylls set up a tripwire in one episode within like 5 minutes.
also their weapons are kind of garbage, just once i'd like to see a zombie show where people know what they're doing and are at least pseudo-prepared and not clueless unprepared dunces, jesus an SKS costs like $300 bucks and has all you need, steel buttplate for hitting shit, long-ass flip up bayonet, cleaning kit installed in the buttplate, doesn't need mags or anything. survivalists are almost "mainstream" nowadays would make sense if at least one or two people were prepared for such an occassion. one last thing i don't buy that the military got wiped out so quickly, i mean the US military, come on. and they left so many supplies in the city there was a fucking TANK and a bunch of dead soldiers with rifles and ammo and mre's and everything. and the entire freeway with all those cars and they picked like the worst ones, just basically spent a lot of time on bullshit manufactured drama and they always get caught with their pants down by the zombies, you'd think they'd learn.
hopefully the next season of falling skies will be good

Tree Fort with a zip line. Build like 4 of them a few hundred yards away from each other. Have a dump truck like vehicle with plow on the front and when zombies start hanging around one area, you zip line out of there to the dump truck and run over the standing zombies.

I wondered about that too.....from wikia.com:
The zombies, are the classic slow walking Romero style zombies, which originated in Night of the Living Dead. Following classic Romero-rules, everyone who dies, for any reason, will re-animate as a zombie except if the brain is damaged/destroyed. Even someone killed by a gunshot wound with no zombies involved at all will re-animate as a zombie. Zombie bites are not how the "infection" is spread. Instead, zombie bites and saliva cause infections that are 100% fatal. Characters have speculated, but cannot confirm, that whatever causes zombies to re-animate is some sort of virus that everyone in the world is technically already infected with but is only triggered by death. It is known, however, that upon death, it can take anytime between three minutes and eight hours for the corpse to reanimate.[1]
Zombies out-number humans around 5,000 to 1

AMC announced on Friday that the series “The Walking Dead” has a date with viewers.
The program is slated to return for season three on Sunday, Oct. 14 at 9 p.m. with a 16-episode run that will be split into two parts. The second eight episodes will begin on February 2013.
In addition, the October premiere will be followed by the second season of the after-show “Talking Dead” at 11 p.m. along with the unscripted series “Comic Book Men.”
Of course, when we last left the survivors, Hershel’s farm was overrun by zombies. Season three looks to feature the crew calling a prison their new home and the introduction of The Governor, who will be played by David Morrissey.

exactly. I'd have my main sleeping area 75feet in the air. From that one tree, I'd have 10 different zip lines coming in and out. The Zombie's would never know where you are. hell, it would actually be fun screwing with them.

David Morrisey was the worst possible pick for the governor. I think this season is going to blow.. Mark my words. Just more of the same stupid shit. Hershel is still alive as well? LOL.......

THE WALKING DEAD Season 3 Programming Schedule
Season 3 of The Walking Dead kicks off October 14th a scant 9 weeks from today! Writer and Producer Robert Kirkman reveals that Season 3 filming is currently at the halfway point.
Season 1 consisted of a brisk 6 episodes with a peak of 6 million viewers. Season 2 doubled that episode count, with 13 episodes but also included a 3-month hiatus between November and February before culminating in a tantalizing season finale which drew 9 million viewers. Season 3 ups the episode order again with 16 episodes which kick off on October 14. Egads! That's a mere 9 weeks from now. However, we now have confirmation from Robert Kirkman that Season 3 will indeed have another midseason finale. MTV Splashpage states that 8 episodes will air this fall, while the remaining 8 episodes will air sometime in 2013. That's fairly consistent with the programming schedule for Season 2. What do you guys think, excited about more Walking Dead on the horizon? Also, keep your eyes peeled to CBM, new webisodes were confirmed for Season 3 and I expect those to drop fairly soon.

Another Series Regular To Be Killed Off In Season Three Of THE WALKING DEAD
According to the ever reliable Michael Ausiello over at TV Line, a series regular will be killed off in season three of The Walking Dead. "I can confirm that a series regular will become zombie kibble during Season 3," he told one reader in his regular "Ask Ausiello" column, although the writer remained tight-lipped over when exactly we should expect to see that happen. "Whether that death takes place in the first half or second half I can’t say." This shouldn't come as too much of a surprise to fans of either the AMC series or the Robert Kirkman penned comic book, although it is a little surprising that yet another main cast member will be leaving the show, especially after the last few episodes of season two thinned down the group quite drastically.

THE WALKING DEAD Webisodes Are Returning Oct. 1.
It's now confirmed that AMC will be releasing webisodes prior to the start of the third season of The Walking Dead.
On Oct. 1st, the first of four five-minute eps will reveal a new group of characters with actor Daniel Roebuck(Lost) in one of the key roles.
Cold Storage tells the story of a young man, Chase (played by Josh Stewart), trying to reach his sister in the early days of the zombie apocalypse. He finds temporary shelter in a storage facility run by a former employee named B.J. (Roebuck); however, things are not what they appear.
Fans of the show will recall that Season 2's 'prequel' webisdoes told the story of the 'bicycle girl' Rick encountered in the memorable Season 1 premiere episode.

AMC Dissing Dish for Dumping THE WALKING DEAD
The Walking Dead Season 3 premiere is Oct. 14 at 9pm on AMC. But DISH subscribers won't get to watch the most popular show on basic cable.
AMC is helping DISH subscribers find a new television provider so they can watch the upcoming season. More info at PutZombiesBack.com
Galactus Insert: As a Dish subscriber myself, this news almost made me dump my contract, but I'm also an Amazon Prime member and can watch it on there. I did that for this season's Breaking Bad as well. Just another option if you are not able to switch TV providers at the moment.

Norman Reedus Talks About Playing THE WALKING DEAD's Bad-Ass, 'Daryl Dixon'
Thanks to our friends over at Digital Spy, we have the following interview with The Walking Dead's Norman Reedus. The actor plays crossbow wielding bad-ass 'Daryl Dixon', an original character created specifically for the show. Below are a few key excerpts, but be sure to click on the link at the bottom of the page to read the interview in full. The Walking Dead returns to AMC on Sunday, October 14th.
On Taking On A Larger Role In Season Three:
Well, I've kind of stepped up in certain areas, so there is more for me to do. Shane (Jon Bernthal) left last year and he was a big part of the storyline - we have a lot of new characters, it's sort of spreading out. I don't want to give anything away, but I've sort of become Rick's right hand man in a way, so I'm doing a lot of physical stuff.
On Playing The Most Bad-Ass Character On Television:
It's a blast - I run around shooting zombies in the brain all day, it's pretty exciting! I like playing him, as emotionally immature as he is. He's sort of like a little kid in a lot of ways. He is figuring out how to deal with people and situations for the first time. Even if there wasn't a zombie apocalypse, I don't know he'd be hanging out with many people - he's a man of few words!
On The Prison:
Well, we find the prison and when Rick sees it, he kind of imagines this whole grand idea. It's kind of like Club Med to us, a place where you can sleep easy at night. But the prison... you can sleep there and nobody can get in and it keeps you safe from walkers, but first you have to clear it out. There's a whole bunch of episodes a lot about that - we're finding people in the prison and all these things happen. It's nice for us, but the problem is that other people think the same thing!
On David Morrissey's Take On Iconic Villain, 'The Governor':
He's got a very commanding energy to him. He's quite the charmer, David Morrissey, but he has this evil behind his eyes - the way that he's playing this character and how they're writing him... it's interesting. He's not a one-dimensional guy. You look at the comic and people were going, 'You need this person to play this part and this person to play that part', but I think David is just the exact right person for this job because he has this martyr syndrome at the same time that he's twisting his moustache, so to speak. But he's a very interesting guy, he's super-charming. I've met his wife and his kids and I love the whole family... I want to move in!
On The Return Of 'Merle Dixon':
There's a lot of talk about this right now. He's going to come back and he's going to come back pissed. He's going to want revenge. But where do Daryl's loyalties lie? There's going to be a lot of conflict and Michael Rooker is such a fun actor - he's so over-the-top, in the best possible way. He's such a bad guy! When I first found out he was my brother, I was so excited.
On The Freedom The Not Being A Character From The Comic Books Give Him:
I always tease [comic creator] Robert Kirkman about putting me into the comic book; it may happen, you never know. But I like not having a guideline. When I started this show, I never really had any conversations with Frank [Darabont] about Daryl. Frank created this character and he just sort of let me run with it. I had all these little subtle things that I tried to do from the beginning that showed that he had all this damage inside of him. I'm very grateful to the people who picked up on it; the fans pick up on all these little things. These little things are turning into storylines - it's nice that you can plant these little seeds as you go along and sometimes they turn into trees.

David Morrissey Talks More About His Role As 'The Governor' In THE WALKING DEAD
Talking to Digital Spy, British actor David Morrissey has talked more about making his debut as 'The Governor' in the highly anticipated third season of The Walking Dead. Below are a few highlights from their chat with the man who looks set to make Rick Grimes' life a hell this year, but be sure to click on the link at the bottom of the page to read the interview in full. What are you most looking forward to seeing this season?
On Exactly How Much Research He Did Before And After Nabbing The Role:
When they offered me the role, they said, 'Look at the comics,' but what Robert Kirkman asked me to do was read his novel, which is called 'Rise of the Governor', and before anything else I read that. I loved that - I thought that was a great piece of work and it gave me a lot to work with. I avoided the comics for a bit actually. I obviously saw the look of the Governor from the comic, but the first script came in and I liked what they were doing. Then I read the comic and it was very different, the thing about the Governor in the comic is that he's a fully-formed person and what we do with him in the TV series is... he's not as fully formed when he arrives and then we work on him from then on.
On Whether He Feels Any Pressure Bringing Such An Iconic Character To Life:
I guess so, but I feel pressure with any character I play whether there is anticipation about it or not. I've done interpretive parts before, in Dickens, with 'Our Mutual Friend', I played Bradley Headstone and people have great ideas about him. And there was South Riding and Red Riding in fact as well - there's a series of books that people have great ideas about. Even characters that aren't from any adaptations, I feel great pressure and the Governor is no different - I always put pressure on myself.
On Whether He's Worried About The Character Being Seen As One-Dimensional:
I think that's a concern about any character whether they are good, bad or whatever. You want to bring layers to any character that you play. Particularly in a series; we're doing 16 episodes here, so you have to find different notes for him. For me particularly I would be bored stiff if there were just one note I had to play. The writers are aware of that as well and they're really bringing in different levels to the character. I'm really happy with the material I'm being given and I certainly don't feel bored by the challenges they are laying at me. Hopefully he will be very complex.
On What It's Been Like To Work On The Prison Set:
It's a great set; I've worked with that designer before... it's a man called Grace Walker who did the Mad Max films, an Australian guy. I did a film called The Reaping with him down in Louisiana. He's an amazing designer - a lot of the time as an actor what you're doing is filling in the parts that [the production crew] can't do, but there's none of that with Grace. He really covers all the angles and it means we can do the long-running shots because his set has no gaps in it. He's a wonderful, wonderful designer.
On How He's Coping With The Violence And Zombie Action:
Yeah, there's a lot of it and one thing I love about this show is it treats its subject matter very seriously. I think that it's a show about survival and humanity and what human beings will put themselves through in order to survive. I think the danger has to feel very real to pull that off and on this show, the danger is very real. I think that's what makes it so brilliant.

Watched the webisodes, thanks Gregz.

Sarah Wayne Callies On Racking Up More Kills As 'Lori Grimes' In THE WALKING DEAD
In a lengthy chat with our friends over at Digital Spy, Sarah Wayne Callies (Prison Break) has talked more about reprising her role as 'Lori Grimes' in the highly anticipated third season of The Walking Dead. The actions of character over the past two seasons have divided fans, but with Shane now out of the way and a baby on the way, things promise to become even more interesting (and complicated) for her and Rick. Check out some highlights below, and be sure to click on the link at the bottom of the page to read the interview in full.
On Exactly How Much Time Has Passed Since The Season Two Finale:
I'm not actually supposed to talk about where we exactly pick up but the threads we left hanging at the end of the season we pick right back up at the start. We start fraying them into little tiny pieces again.
On How It Feels To Move From Hershel's Farm To The Prison:
Yeah, there was a day towards the end of the second season when Andy and I were sitting next to each other on rocking chairs on the porch at Hershel's farm while they set up the scene. You're watching the sun go down over the fields and all of a sudden it hit me and I turned to him and I said, 'Andy, next year we're in jail!' And we both simultaneously half wept and half laughed because that farm was so good to us, it was so beautiful and I think it was a really interesting counterpoint to the hideousness of the world that they're in. The prison, then, is sort of the opposite. There's nothing poetic about it. It's a very literal place and it's also a heavy-handed metaphor for the ways in which our security requires us to be our own captives, which is to say, we lock ourselves in at the end of every night, like the way you kennel a dog. It's given this show, even just aesthetically, a completely different character from last season because the colour values are different, the air is different, there's not as much sunlight and that kind of thing. It's an incredibly bold departure, I think, from seasons 1 and 2.
On Her Favourite Moment In Season Three So Far:
At this point, my favourite moment happens between Rick and Lori at the end of the second episode. In season 3, Rick and Lori have really lost each other, profoundly and they are both trying to find a way to summon the courage to reach their hand across the gap and bridge that divide. At the end of the second episode is the first tentative hint of that attempt to reach one another.
On How The Show Will Handle Lori's Pregnancy And The Reaction Of The Other Characters:
I think Lori's quite anxious. I think Lori, in some ways, thinks she has the reverse of the Midas touch. Everything that she touched in the last season turned to s**t, pardon my French! When it comes to the pregnancy, she is very anxious that none of the people who have become her new family, extended family, not just of Rick and Carl but also of Hershel and Beth and Glen and Carol, that none of the people in this new family put themselves at risk because of her pregnancy. Either because she is less capable or because they want to make sure that she gets the best food. I think she feels unworthy of special treatment. I think she is very keen to do as much as she possibly can so that no-one makes any sacrifices for her.
On Whether We'll See Lori Take On More Of The Undead:
I do rack up a couple of kills, which is nice. What we've discovered is this is no longer a world where some people are the fighters and some people are the homemakers. Lori and Andrea have this argument basically about whether or not Andrea should be working to help Lori and the other people who are doing the cooking and cleaning and craving a community or whether Andrea should be out with the people with the guns. And I think what we see in the third season is that that division has broken down. Everyone now has to be able to protect and defend, to forage and so that's Lori, Carol and Beth every bit as much as it is Daryl, T-Dog and Rick.

Hey deadz you should really go back and watch the first 2 seasons thats when the characters really develop and you get a sense for them. The first 2 episodes of this season seem to be more about moving the overall show along than the storylines of the characters themselves. Im sure that once they get the story moved forward enough the will revert back but the first 2 seasons are essential man.
You would probably really enjoy them.

Glad to see rick kill that one dude but I think I would have either killed the other two or brought them back.
Im guessing that means the get more of the food?

Deadline reports that The Walking Dead once again decimated the competition last night after drawing in a staggering 9.5 million viewers on AMC. 6.5 million of those were adults aged between 18 and 49. That's a drop of only 11% in that category, and 13% overall from last week's criticaly acclaimed season premiere. Now that Dish subscribers are once again able to watch the small screen adaptation of Robert Kirkman's hit comic book series, expect these viewers to remain steady (and possibly rise) over the next few weeks.

Yes.
Carl doesn't seem as annoying so far this season...and neither does Lori. Both episodes so far have been really good.
