Also, next week's Talking Dead will feature Glenn from the show and Paget Brewster from Criminal Minds.

Re: The Walking Dead - TV Series on AMC

Meaning....what exactly?

I just have to Google "The Walking Dead" season 2 mid-season premiere to find it?

Yep.

Great episode except for Lori.
A stupid side-plot to give the character something to do. Why exactly drive out to do exactly what Rick and Glenn were already doing? Not to mention conveniently having your eyes off the road at the same moment a single walker appears. Lame.

And not to mention that she swerves INTO the Walker, lol.

Re: The Walking Dead - TV Series on AMC

And how the hell fast was she going? The whole thing was just weird and silly - not the usual writing for this show.

And in a world where people are getting cut, scratched, shot, etc trying to defend themselves, the last thing they need is to spend time and medicine on lori's self inflicted wounds.

And he's also pissing where he eats which is a no-no even in the animal world.

Re: The Walking Dead - TV Series on AMC

Okay, I watched the teaser - I don't think it's the guy from the bar they are talking about. Only a spoiler if you haven't watched the episode yet:

Spoiler

Shane specifically says 'the kid', and they are acting like he'll be patched up and out of there in no time, which doesn't imply a gun shot wound necessarily. Complete supposition, but I'm betting there was someone else from the group outside the bar, someone younger, and when they hear the gunshots they freak and somehow get hurt in a less fatal way. That makes more sense with the sneak peek, and further shows how far Shane is slipping - he'd kill someone just to keep the group hidden from other living people.

Spoiler

I don't hear Shane say anything about "A kid". He says something about a graveyard and patching him up and be on his way. I still think you are right in that whoever they are referring to is one of the people outside of the saloon looking for their friends. Someone Rick/Glen/Herschel injured as they escaped? Still don't know why they would bring anyone associated with those two guys that Rick killed in the bar back to the farm. Pure stupidity. Anyways, it is clear that this conversation between Shane and Andrea takes place AFTER the events in the saloon and Lori's car crash and subsequent escape/rescue.

Re: The Walking Dead - TV Series on AMC

Shane says:

Spoiler

"patch up the kid and send him back" it's around 1:30 or so, almost at the end of the clip.

BTW, I like how Dale continues to be Shane's conscience. He doesn't have to say anything to him now, just look at him - and Shane can't take it. That's why I think Shane is going to try to or actually kill Dale - he can't take having him around, reminding him of what he's done. I'm betting Dale served in Vietnam as well, having experienced things Shane can only guess at.

Like it or not Shane is a neccessary evil. To this point in the series his actions are almost 100% commendable. IF he kills Dale he will officially make my ____ list.

Dale must die. I started this campaign months ago and hope it comes to fruition.

His tombstone can read "As the world went to _____ around him, he kept his humanity and this is where it got him."

____ that dude, Dales an awesome person. Humanity can coexist, even in an inhumane time.

Agree to disagree. I agree that humanity can exist in an inhumane time, but disagree that Dale is awesome. Can't stand him. I find him completely useless to their situation, unless like Shane said he needs a radiator hose. Has he shot one Walker yet? I can't remember him doing so. He usually can be found on top of the RV scanning for Walkers and even that he screws up. For example, first episode in S1 when Rick is on the walkie talkie trying to contact anyone as he is traveling to Atlanta and he comes through on Dale's CB, but the dumb@ss just stands there and does nothing until Amy comes over to talk to Rick but he is out of range by that time. Good one Dale! Then in the first episode of S2, he is up on the RV scanning ahead for walkers but doesn't see any until they are right on top of them and everyone is forced to hide under the cars and Sophia gets chased and well, you know how that turned out. Gold star for Dale again!

In terms of being completely useless to the group, he just barely edges out Carol.

Re: The Walking Dead - TV Series on AMC

Okay, I found it! Thankfully AMC has started showing it on their website for The Walking Dead today.

https://www.amctv.com/shows/the-walking-dead

I'd prefer watching it on my TV, but it's cool that they're posting it online. Wow, I feel like the only one here that doesn't have AMC.

 

[Voorhees27]

Re: The Walking Dead - TV Series on AMC

Not fair. Based on that logic they shoulda popped Carol and Andrea ages ago. Dale is like a father figure, that's something useful in a horrid time imo.

Agree to disagree as well.

Re: The Walking Dead - TV Series on AMC

OK. I got a theory. Bear with me and please, give your thoughts.

Spoiler

Ok. this is something that popped into my mind last night. I have a feeling that ole' boy that was behind the bar isn't dead. Sure it looked like Rick shot him in the head, but this is TV afterall. Could very well have just taken out his eye (ala the governor) and give him a person vendetta against rick. I know that everyone is thinking Merle is the governor, and we see Daryl say "sorry brother" in the preview. I think Merle will just be part of "one eyed dude's" posse. Biggest thing that moved me to this was that it didn't show Rick ensuring that he was dead like he did with "tons of fun"

Thoughts?

Spoiler

This clip for next week's episode seems to support that theory to some extent. However, it sounds like they take him back to the farm, heal him up and then send him on his way. Real stupid if you ask me. Why doesn't Rick just finish him off like he did Tons o Fun?

Spoiler

I wonder if Rick's group brings back one of the people from the other group and perhaps Carl kills him. Lori said last nigh that she's worried because he's becoming "cold" and perhaps this could be Carl's way of starting to lose his humanity especially if the spoiler about Rick and Shane posted a few weeks back can be believed.

Help me understand his usefulness. Yes, he is old and as such can be looked at as a father figure but is that what anyone in the group needs?

 

[ali032373]

Re: The Walking Dead - TV Series on AMC

He had tools and does a lot of driving.

Yes some do. Andrea needed a slap upside the head for the longest time. Carol could use a companion of some sort, Daryl isn't what she needs.

Not sure if Ali is being sarcastic but yes, he has tools and an RV to help transport the group. If he doesn't contribute to killing walkers he doesn't need to, there are plenty of killers already.

Aside from losing Merle's cuff keys what has T-Dog done that's so commendable? Everyone has their part, don't blame Dale for being too old. If you're not a walker being human is a good enough reason to be left apart of the group.

Plus don't forget Shane has been taking his personal problems out on the group too. Personal problems that don't pertain to their survival. He's getting to the boiling point and it won't be good.
