The last episode of the first season was a serious disappointment, but now they've been given 13 episodes I'm hoping they have more time to work with the characters and the story.

I have to say, for a first in zombie TV shows, I was underwhelmed with season one of the show. With all the creative and unique stuff they could do, it has been too slow paced for my taste. Maybe the new season will start picking up and we'll get to see some interesting things...

Slow paced and mythodical story telling, yes. To the point of being boring and uninteresting, no. So much more creative stories could be told with this series. Thus far it hasn't impressed me for being a first in zombie TV shows...

It only had six episodes... and they had no clue whether it would catch on and be a success or if it would just be canceled.

Now that they know people like it, and they have more episodes, I'm sure "business will pick up"

BAHGAWD.

But seriously, I loved the first season. I am too fucking ecstatic for the second season. Darabont stepped down as director, but I'm sure the replacement will do just fine.

I hope that is the case, b/c I haven't been impressed with it so far. For it being a first in zombie TV shows, they sure haven't taken advantage of it. Maybe things will pick up if the season is actually longer than 6 episodes...

Great first episode.

Is it obvious that the blonde is pregnant? She was getting sick at the CDC. She was holding her stomach faintly at the beginning of the ep. And when she gets off the broken down RV, it shows her looking down at a baby bottle. Probably what the doctor whispered to Rick.

Also, I wonder if they plan to kill the kids off this season, because those child actors will look a lot older when they start shooting season 3. Don't want another " Walt " situation.

Who could Andrea be pregnant from? Her vibrator?

Kids will live, I think. If the comics present a (very) loose base for things, and with where the show is going, Carl at least evolves into a badass mismash of Rick and Shane. (Not spoilers; speculation)

Come on, bro.

She just lost her sister/watched her zombify/had to shoot her in the head and subsequently lost the will to live. That would make anyone "sick".

If anyone is gonna be pregnant, its gonna be Lori so they can do the inevitable "Is it Rick or Shane's Baby" angle.

Why would Rick feel the need to nearly communicate that to Morgan at dawn? What's it to him?

My theory is being that Andrea was close contact with her dead sister all night, all the way up until she turned, that Andrea is at least a carrier of the virus. This is all speculation and there's no precedent in the comics for Andrea with this arc.

Not saying that won't be the case, but I see the clues to a different conclusion.

RP
10-18-2011, 12:22 AM
I took the opening scene as him just giving an update of there situation. If she's pregnant, then what's it really matter at that point.


I was about 50/50 on this theory until the scene where she's looking down at the baby bottle.

Didn't care for this episode that much. Couple flaws/stupid things distracted me.

Like when they first saw the zombies on the street, and then suddenly there's a massive mob of them like 2 seconds later. It's like come on, you really didn't see that BEFORE they got 10 feet away?

Or how predictable it was that the little girl was gonna come out too early and alert a zombie.

And how did the zombies not smell them under the cars? I mean, I imagine there was 'death' around them, but come on.. the smell of humans should have been overwhelming around them. I mean, they had an episode last season where they had to cover themselves in guts, and all it took was a little bit of rain and suddenly all the remaining guts on them didn't matter and suddenly all they could smell was humans. Like, I get pulling a dead body over yourself to hide your smell like the 2 guys did. But idk... wouldn't the guy's blood have attracted them like crazy too? I mean, it's fresh blood, pouring out of his arm. He was bleeding like crazy.

Dunno. Lot of suspense and stuff, but those stupid things distracted me from what could have been a great episode.

Lock Jaw
10-18-2011, 12:40 PM
Yeah. The smell thing didn't make sense to me either. Thought that was like one of the main two ways they find people. Doesn't matter if they were under cars, they shoulda smelled that.

Especially the dude bleeding, leaving fresh blood all over the place.

Lock Jaw
10-18-2011, 12:43 PM
Also, I wonder if Zombies need to stop and drop a deuce every now and then. I mean, clearly their digestive system works enough that things wind up in their stomach. If they didn't void it every now and then, they'd kind of all just get fat and explode after awhile.

I now would like to see a scene where they sneak up on a Zombie who is dropping a deuce and chop his head off. Then crack some witty toilet humor joke.

Just watching it now and seeing what you guys mean about the Zombie's not smelling them there. I suppose this sort of thing is what happens with new writers.

10-19-2011, 05:15 PM
A small detail, I'm already over it.

And the original writer already set out this season's outline before he left. So it's not as drastic as say... what happened to Heroes.

Thought the episode was quite good other than that 'minor detail'. I'm excited for the rest of the series now but wish they wouldn't fucking show aload of next weeks episode straight after it. Just spoils the point of a cliffhanger. Turned that off quickly so it didn't spoil too much.

Guess 'suspenseful scene in traffic' was more important than making sense/keeping continuity.

10-24-2011, 08:15 PM
I assumed it was because there were so many bodies around in the traffic the smell of the few humans was masked. They were basically hiding right under a bunch of dead people after all. I guess we have no way of knowing unless the issue presents itself again.

Last year really was into this show. This year I'm just ok with it. Seems like I stopped caring about all the characters over the year break besides a very few. If all the women got killed on the show I would not complain. Still parts of this season I really enjoy, but overall just doesn't feel like there is that same magic for me. But that could be me and not the show, because last year I had a diamond cutting hard on for halloween and this year I don't care as much about it either.

Once again with this season, I have begun to read the comic books concurrent with the episodes. Last episode brings us up to Issue #10.

On the whole, though, the TV show is pretty different. Lots more stuff added, a few things left out...

The TV show is better.

Stupid plothole is stupid.

The executive producer chimed in on this, and he pretty much echoed what I already thought... They're zombies. They don't have super senses. They can smell in the same way humans can smell for the most part. Yeah, a zombie can smell a human, and know there's something "different" about it, but they're not basset hounds. Just like you could smell a dog next to you, but you may not smell one several feet away.

I've been re-reading the comic, and I gotta say, I really hope they don't turn Rick into some selfless paragon of virtue for the whole show. Hoping TV Rick follows the same general arc as Comic Rick. I'd love to see what Andrew Lincoln would do with the transition from noble small town cop to something a little more savage.

so with shane sticking around, is tyreese a write-off? since he should've been there when carl gets shot.

also, as much as i am growing to fucking love dixon ("am i the only one who's zen around here? good lord." :heart:), i really hope he doesn't serve as a replacement for abraham down the line, since they're pretty similar in a few ways. kind of love that character.

and also weighing in on the zombie smell thing, i excused it via a combination of a) the not-a-basset-hound theory and b) the presence of several other dead things helping to mask the smell. so i can deal. you can too.

So. This happened to me last season as well.

But I have once again been having recurring dreams about living in a world full of zombies.

Not "recurring" as in the same dream all the time.... but in the way that the plots continue from night to night.

Last night ran afoul of an old character who was thought to be dead. Turns out he had just gone crazy and now ruled over a small area with an iron fist... and wanted to "marry" me off to his daughter... who was a zombie.

Narrowly escaped.

Before I woke up, I had reconnected with my group and we had joined forces with another small group to head for somewhere else.

Like that scene in From Dusk Til Dawn where the asian son is getting eaten by vamps and the sister shoots him in the head. That's how shit is done. That's what they need to do with that little girl.

This show needs to pick up the pace and raise the bar. I've seen all of this before.

Also, I like the kids being on the show. Well, I like Carl. Don't really care about Sophia and her Mother though. Sophia may or may not turn out dead from this. Carl, they will probably conveniently kill him off when the actor starts to grow too much. Kid is probably doing his best not to grow so he can be on the show longer.

Fantastic episode. I feel like people that expect zombies eating everyone, every episode, are unrealistic. I love the Daryl character. The cherokee rose scene was a scene stealer. One of the best of the series. I think the kid playing Carl is starting to grow on me. He's very good. I honestly could live with Rick dying if they wanted to do it. He has the Jack effect going. Few people probably know what I'm talking about there.

I really love all the characters. Great character development. I thought Laurie was about to give herself an abortion.

Great show.

Yeah the search for Sofia is annoying. I've hated Carol for the longest too so I wouldn't mind if both of them died horrible deaths eventually.

Thing is though, mundane stuff like that is necessary as a precursor to the major action. If Sophia doesn't run off, Carl never gets shot, Shane never has to go get medical supplies and he doesn't get his Hulk Hogan heel turn. For that reason I appreciate the annoying women and kids. The show wouldn't be as critically acclaimed as it is or have the look and feel it does if it was mindless zombie killing every week. Probably wouldn't even be on AMC.

TV show not comic book
I always got the feel that something like this was gonna happen with Hershel turning out to be some religious nut. Guess he has some sort of "edict" that any Walkers that they come across they save because eventually there will be a cure. Which is why Maggie looked horrified when they killed the one from the well.

I don't think it is a trap. More like a "Oh shit, they broke out! Who woulda thunk?! Welp, we're all dead!"

Damn good midseason finale. Loved how after all the rest of them were slaughtering zombies so easily Rick was the only one with the guts to put Sophia down.

Knew Shane would go full on psycho once he found out Lori was knocked up.

The ending showing the zombified Sophia was A BIG FUCKING SURPRISE!! I KNEW IT!!! Although, it's a little bit tough to cry down even if it means losing one of your precious daughters or family, sacrifices by killing them is just a mean of survival in the zombie world. R.I.P. Sophia... You were worth it despite all the moaning and whining how your mom desperately wants to find you

I liked it. *wipes tears with a tissue*

So a surprise or you knew it?

Lori needs to die, and they need to find a home depot or something full of zombie killing devices.

If all holds up the way they're headed, she dies during the prison assault, along with a shitload of others.

Read at your own risk Inno, and everyone else.

Yeah I've caught up on the comic storylines.


I wonder what they'll do about Rick's hand when they get to the Governor.

That's if they even go that route Inno.

For Sophia finally getting a bullet to the head?

I'm thankful for that as well.

Stupid little bitch was making this show slow.

Why the spoiler tags? The show was on last night. Anyway we need to see more kid zombies getting shot in the head.

Because these fat nerds keep posting shit from the comic book

Doesn't really matter.

Shit is different from the comic book.

Although, I think they should stick to what the comic book says in a couple of things, like you know, Lori dying.

Honestly can't stand the anorexic whore and her dumb ass constantly surprised face.

I honestly hope every chick gets killed on the show, along with Carl. They are just plain useless. Well, except for Maggie.
