Well SOMEONE needs to bang Daryl. He's too cute not to.

Oh please, let it be Alan Rickman again.

Also, they really have hit year 2-3 of the zombie apocalypse and still don't have the sense to take anything and everything that might possibly cause death seriously yet. Even just to err on the side of caution.

How original, this show using Carl to harp on the importance of appreciating your family members in times of crisis.

Also, I have those solar lamps. They're decorative rather than functional.

Is Michonne's sword a lightsaber?

Only when she has it. Remember how many hacks it took to behead poor Hershel?

Also, I was all for splitting the group again until I discovered that 90% of the first episode after the midseason break was going to be about Carl. Considering what happened to the farm and the after the first attack on the prison, why did none of these idiots plan to make a rendezvous point in case of, you know, zombies, deadly plagues, the Governor, etc.

For anyone who's watching the talking dead, am I the only one that had the scene from Labyrinth going through their head when the guy was talking about using lipstick to make signs for yourself?

No. Also, most of his advice was nearly as retarded as the actions we see the main cast regularly taking on the show.

I like how all of the main characters forgot that covering yourself in zombie entrails makes them not bite you.

Seriously, as disgusting as it is to have to do that (even when taking Michonne's route of hauling along a couple armless/jawless ones), it's better than risking with all this "CHAAAAAARGE!" bullshit.

In order to deal with this show on any level, you need to accept that everyone on it is smell-blind. I mean, how else would you not notice a rotting corpse creeping it's way up behind you, as happens regularly.

Given how long the guy was out I think he was just passed out

I know it's a Hollywood thing to show knocked out/passed out people as staying out for lengthy and indeterminate amounts of time, but in reality, the person usually wakes up in a matter of seconds (a couple minutes at the most) unless he is dead or in a coma. It bugs the poo poo out me constantly when watching TV/movies.

I also thought it was kind of weird that both Carl/Michonne and the biker guys were so nonchalant about the houses. I mean, not too long ago Carl nearly got nailed by the shoe-thieving zombie, so even though it's been kind of established that herds are more of a threat than individuals or small groups, it's not like the main cast aren't consistently being reminded that a single zombie can wreck your poo poo.

Edit: I admit I'm being nitpicky though, I actually did like the episode quite a lot.

Edit 2: V V V V Rick killed the guy in the bathroom though, so it could've been him reanimating even if bed guy wasn't dead.

She did so badly at faking her first drink, in particular with it being Moonshine, I honestly thought she must have never had a drink in real life before. The whole scene is: [Calmly] "This is vile. Oh, second sip is fine." No reaction to the burn, no choking down the first several hits, she acted like she was drinking a nice glass of water.

Amusingly I got told she was 28 before that discussion even happened on these forums, which was a shock. Not only does she look much younger, I figured her not being drinking age was the reason for everything I just wrote. Now, I just have no idea.

I guess you could try to explain it away as her trying to have big balls in front Daryl? But more likely it's just that she's one of the weaker actors on the show. Despite her being 28 in real life, it looks like she hasn't had all that much experience.

Also, regarding the Country Club: they mentioned on the Talking Dead that the "lynchings" were a result of a "class struggle" between the club members and the staff who were holed up inside, implying that the rich people were acting dickish to the staff despite their economic status suddenly becoming moot, to the point that the staff snapped and murdered the poo poo out of them.

Maybe it was a commentary on current political issues, but I think it was also included to show that Daryl was kind of Ok with whatever had gone down there due to having such a crappy life right next to people who are wearing a single piece of jewelry worth more than his childhood home, which is why he was busting the place up a bit, throwing darts, and freaked out on Beth about her having a pony, etc. You know, before he progressed to the grief- and guilt-stricken portion of his meltdown.
