kirbypuckett Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 The women in this show suck. Do they have any women writers on the staff? Andrea is awful in this show, one of my favorite characters in the books. Lori sucks. Suicide Watch chick is dumb. Maggie is decent though. I did like this week's episode though, two solid weeks in a row. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lonesomexloveus Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 to be honest, i'm not really a huge fan of any of the characters. the only one i actually like is daryl, but now he's acting like a woman scorned throwing a hissy fit/pity party. ok, ok, i like glenn too.

almightyseancore Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 i was hoping for an andrea/lori girl fight. with andrea delivering a beautiful beatdown on barefoot-and-pregnant-in-the-kitchen lori. i support this. if AMC showed a pregnant woman getting beat up by another women, the ratings would go thru the roof.

patron Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 I typed this up on the Org Summit. Copy pasted here. Comic spoilers. I'm guessing Beth (aka "Who Cares") killing herself is supposed to parallel Tyreese's daughter Julie and her suicide pact with her boyfriend Chris (issue 14/15). It's pretty clear that Tyreese isn't coming into the show anytime soon, so she's going to make a suicide pact with her fellow no-lined boyfriend Jimmy and flub the suicide pact after they have sex. This will cause Hershel et al to want to leave the farm (as Beth said she wanted to die in that specific bed) and they'll find the prison at the end of the season.

booyahachieved Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 This is the first episode in a really long time that I thought was really well done the whole way through. It was definitely intense and it's always fun to see plenty of zombie action. However, I couldn't help but be a little disappointed in how far this episode moved the plot forward. They're still in the same situation they were in before. What do we do with this guy from the other camp? Plus Shane and Rick are still at odds with one another. Even though Rick totally saved him from that school bus I couldn't help but notice that they kept the camera on Shane quite a bit in the beginning and end of the episode as Rick is driving. He had a very contemplative look on this face trying to work things out in his head. And I'm fairly certain the question he keeps asking himself is "How do I kill Rick and not make it look like it was my fault?" Also, Lori and Andrea are both super annoying. At first I found myself taking Lori's side in their arguement but once she started giving Andrea crap about not doing laundry that was it. Both of these girls are nuts.

booyahachieved Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 What exactly is blondie's name anyway? I'll have to go look that up. They never did a very good job of introducing us to all of Hershel's crew. Some... but not all. I really do hope they find the prison but I can see it being possible that they don't use that story line. Only because of how expensive it could potentially be for the show to produce a set like that. Money seems to be a big factor for AMC. It caused problems with Mad Men (17 months to get to the next season!!!) and Frank Darabont from what I understand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fattacus Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 There's pretty much no doubt they'll be in the prison by season 3. When they announced monday who they cast to play the governor they said we'll be seeing him in the third season. So it's pretty easy to assume they'll be in the prison pretty quick.

mcm1610 Posted February 29, 2012 Author Share Posted February 29, 2012 Well they confirmed the Governor being cast for season 3. That, to me, implies that they more or less HAVE to find the prison, or at least something comparable, by the end of this season. I imagine something big will happen forcing them to move off the farm, and an episode or two of wandering, then it should end with them seeing whatever sanctuary on the horizon like the one issue of the comics. Hopefully a lot of the extra characters get killed off.. they're useless and there's more than I even remember because they're barely in the show. It should be whittled down quick this season, or at the very least when the Governor shows up. I don't know how they'll do the Governor without Michonne though. She was pretty pivotal in that arc unless they're going to use one of the already-present females for that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

motorbike Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 considering how important tyrese and michonne were in the governor/prison arc of the comics, im going to say they leave the farm in the last of couple episodes and one or the other will pop up in the end of this season and the other in the beginning of the next. most likely tyrese in the search for the prison and michonne once they find it. regardless, i hope they follow through with the amount of destruction and chaos that is looming ahead.

mcm1610 Posted February 29, 2012 Author Share Posted February 29, 2012 They damn well better. If they tame down what makes the Governor and that arc so devastating, it will be a huge turnoff for me and the series. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree w/ this. They really ruined everyone in Season 2 except Glenn. Glenn is Glenn and will always be cool. Dale was awesome, now he's a boob just like Daryl.

booyahachieved Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 I'm surprised to see all this talk about the governor (maybe because it was an official press release) when it was already spoiled over a month ago that we'd be seeing Michonne by the end of this season. And I wouldn't be the least bit surprised that they'd bring in the Governor and then not include the prison. As A-Money has pointed out previously they aren't really following the graphic novels that closely besides having a very general story line involving zombies, finding a farm and including some of the original characters.

BuzzersonKillwell Posted March 2, 2012 Share Posted March 2, 2012 Just saw this via my RSS reader. Looks like a Walking Dead plot point for Season 2 was accidentally revealed on the AMC website.
