Wow, I didn't see it coming, but the group's self-appointed vocal conscious just died. I wonder who will take his place as the guy who tries to talk reason to everyone who doesn't want to listen.
OIC. That's cool, I think he's a good character, kind of a wildcard with lots of skills and the coldbloodedness to do what needs to be done. That sucks that they're angling him into some kind of relationship with Carol, who really has no place in the group now that Sophia is gone. If she hooks up with Daryl, that's one less reason they kill her off.Originally Posted by UChessmaster

Just finished season 2. I call the final episode of season 2, "Bitches Be Trippin'." All the women in this episode acted like idiots or did something stupid before it was over. Every single one of them, and the kid too.
I like how it ended with Rick asserting dictatorship, and Hershel and Daryl siding with him.

Heh :P, the way Lori acted when Rick told her he killed Shane, that just made me want to punch her in the face so bad. I disliked her prior to that, after it i kinda want her dead as soon as possible.

I read your post about that earlier so I think it prepared me for it so it didn't suck as bad when it happened. I loved the look on Lori's face when Rick told the group he's the man and everyone else can suck it. But I don't see her dying any time soon.
I was cheering for Andrea to get bit, but then mystery woman showed up. Can't wait to start watching season 3.

I haven't seen the newest episode, but wanted to comment on the last episode, "Sick." It looks like the group is down to 3 able-bodied men and Glen, who they left with the women while the men dealt with the convicts. I think they need to recruit a couple more men to fill out their ranks, since they lost Shane, and wonder why the writers didn't make some of the convicts worthwhile additions to their group. I do appreciate the addition of the two cute farmer's daughters.

Damn, the Governor is seriously fucked up o.o

Are you guys referring to the slaughter of those army soldiers or the collection of zombie heads or something else? I imagine he does some really awful things in the comic because these two instances aren't that bad. I can understand him not wanting the soldiers in his community, they could form a clique and disobey or they could take over the town.
I'm still not sure why everyone is so quick to kill "strangers" instead of integrating them into their groups. I think the Governor could have used another 6 able-bodied soldiers to defend his town. And Rick's group could certainly use some more man-power.

Holy shit this episode was intense.. i mean.. damn. O.o

I can't stop myself for feeling happy on what happened this episode. Kudos to the kid though, he acted more adult like than his father.
Thanks shinta|hikari for the sig.
This was a CRAZY episode, surprised so much happened and it's not a season finale or anything. Shocked that they'd kill off those characters, and one is missing.
And I for one can't wait until something terrible happens to Andrea. I can't stand that bitch.
edit: I didn't want to spoil anything, but shit I can't believe they killed off T-Dog like that. Of course, they have the other big black dude to take his place, so status quo is kept.

I'm glad she went missing. I could not stand another minute of her and Daryl flirting.

It was pretty gross. She's not an ugly woman if you look at her face, but the body, the haircut, the age, and the personality were all hideous. I'm sure she'll be back with the group though.
edit: I haven't read the comic, but does Andrea resemble the Governor's dead wife? Is that the reason for his interest in her?

Oh great, like the Governor wasn't already creepy enough.
Michonne being a badass, Andrea being a dumbass, and Merle has surprisingly good fighting skills![]()

I really hope we get to see Amputee Bayonet vs Katana now. Didn't know Merle had such sick technique, when he busted that initial kick out my fondness for the character went straight up.
I don't see anything so bad about the Governor, considering Archangel called his character in the comics pure evil. I think the rules have changed a bit in this new world they live in. The zombie fight isn't that much worse than what we see in football and hockey on a weekly basis. And the Governor enjoying the spoils of office isn't anything worse than the politicians/government leaders of our time.
I hate Andrea but I can see why she'd rather stay in the community than go wandering off into the wilderness with Michonne again.
@Kagemane: they showed in the preview for next week a fight between Merle and Michonne, so you'll get your wish.
