Satisfying episode. Interesting to watch Lori take on a Lady MacBeth vibe there at the end.
Yeah, I thought that was a pretty tense episode. I love the scene between Carol and Daryl (I hope they boooone). Also, what Andrea said to Shane about his presentation is spot on.
I also don't mind if they turn Lori into out-and-out conniving instead of just reckless. Andrew Lincoln's expression in that last shot was fantastic.
Also, realizing that Hershel was probably still drunk that entire time makes him really, really badass in retrospect.
I don't think making Lori "out and out conniving" would be much of a change. I've found her to be quite a detestable character since episode one.
That was a great episode. One of the strongest so far.
This has to be one of the most uneven shows I have ever seen.
Plus it doesn't make any sense. Daryl's anger is manifesting out of nowhere. I don't buy him changing his tone after seeing visions of his brother (which bothered me that his brother wasn't missing an arm). Daryl has been pretty helpful thus far and now an explosion of anger directed towards someone who just lost her daughter. If anything, he should be pissed about being shot.
Out of nowhere? He was talking about himself, not Carol. He was channeling his desire to find his brother into finding Sofia. It's like in a few episodes ago when he was talking to Carol about keeping the hope that Sofia's still alive, he was actually talking about his own hope that Merle's still alive. When Sofia turned up dead, he lost his own hope of finding Merle and started withdrawing from the group because of his anger at himself. Carol knew this, and let him yell his own frustrations at her no matter how painful it was for her to hear, just to give him an outlet. And it worked. The next morning, he rejoined the group at the farmhouse again and was ready to join Shane in finding Rick when they arrived. I love their relationship.
By the way, funny thing, I decided on a whim last weekend to rewatch both Behind the Mask and The Host on the same day. Totally didn't even remember that Hershel is in both of them.
Well, if you want to know who dies in the Walking Dead. Click here. It doesn't confirm anything, but suggests something. (casting for another show)

I love Daryl and Carol's relationship, as long as it doesn't become romantic. That strikes me as a little icky. Plus, I hate the idea of every good male-female friendship having to resort to a sexual one to maintain dramatic tension. It's lazy.
BTW, the black guy has been completely marginalized. Wish they'd give him something more to do.
his name is t-dawg
did you expect any more?
Fantastic news. David Morissey has been cast as The Governor.
I'm almost thinking of quitting the show until The Governor shows up. I haven't had the slightest urge at all to watch the last two episodes that are on my DVR.
Tonight's episode and last week were both quite good. They appear to have found a good balance between the action and the brooding discourse.
The shots of the walker in the field were actually kind of haunting.
There is this however. I've completely forgotten about him. I don't think he's appeared since the mid-season premiere.
Best episode yet? Maybe.
With the way this show's quality ebbs and flows, next week will probably be laughably bad.
Watched this late last night, and maybe I was thinking about it in a more abstract way than I should have, but did anyone else think that the way they used the cold open wouldn't actually result in there being any walkers in the second half of the episode, instead just allowing it to symbolize both Rick and Shane's struggling to outrun the different forms of guilt they discuss?
I say that because the way they edited the opening had the two of them trying to escape the walkers while the kid was crawling towards the knife on the ground, but in the final timeline of the episode, he's inching towards the knife to free himself while the other two are fighting in the parking lot. I thought it would have been a beautiful touch for the episode to promise a big walker sequence, but then simply deliver a conclusion that proved to be more horrific between those three characters. It was looking that way until, you know, the zombies actually did burst out of the building and the earlier events continued as we saw them, though slightly differently. That small displacement still works in the way they went with, though.
Otherwise, this still might have been my favourite of the season. For me, these past three or four episodes (though broken up by the winter break) have probably made up the most gratifying continuous run they've put together so far.
Uhh...? So you wanted the opening zombies to essentially be a dream sequence of sorts except one where none of the characters are dreaming? I don't know... that doesn't really jive with the way the show is put together.
I do agree though that finally, finally the show is starting to get slightly back on track.
I love—LOVE—that ending, with Shane staring at the lone walker.
