patron Posted November 22, 2010 Share Posted November 22, 2010 all i have to say is: RICK'S HAT. FINALLY.oh, and thank god they just killed off some of those random extra characters. Yeah, I was waiting for both of those two things to happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
booyahachieved Posted November 23, 2010 Share Posted November 23, 2010 Fantastic episode! With only two more remaining I have high hopes that this is going to go out with a big bang. Well, hopefully not too big of a bang... wouldn't want to attract any roamers. My friends and I were taking wagers on how many characters would die in this episode. I wanted to see at least three of them get gnawed on to be satisfied. Suffice to say, I was. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"But sister, we are 12 years apart...you were dad's favorite...this exposition will help the viewers ah-preciate us moar as deep characters!"

flood Posted November 23, 2010 Share Posted November 23, 2010 yeah i don't know why they felt the need to change it, unless they were worried about the sketchiness of it... they were like 2 years apart or so Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey, if you get a free moment PM me how you think it'll end. I'm curious to know what you think. I've read the comics too but with how they keep changing things up I'm not sure I know exactly how they're going to let this play out on TV...

booyahachieved Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 Ok... they're really straying from the source material here. The CDC? What the fuck is this shit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kittenmittons Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 Shane may be a doucher but Rick is a pretty flat character. Is it just me or does everyone feel kind of...removed from these characters? like, i don't care if any of them die. except glenn. they're all so flat to me. i wish they would introduce some different dynamics to the characters. they're all in obvious, settled roles. it's boring.

Japes Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 The CDC? Really? I'm not really liking this. In the comics I liked that Rick was like "Fuck this, we can't stay in Atlanta, I know shit is fucked up." but in the show they're doing what most stupid people do in zombie related entertainment... Try looking for government/army ran places in order to try to find safety/medicine like they have no idea what is going on. Also, I don't like the way they are handling the Rick/Shane relationship fall-out. Shane agreeing to leave is not cool. Who the hell is this guy underground? Aside from all of that, show is solid. :-/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vittywatt Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 sooo... this dude is underground, going nuts, and thinking about killing himself... yet he can open a door and let people in/out? why is he alone? seems DUMB! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jblahmaster Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 yeah, i was really not expecting the cdc part and the guy underground. Odd turn off events. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonnywreck Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 sooo...this dude is underground, going nuts, and thinking about killing himself... yet he can open a door and let people in/out? why is he alone? seems DUMB! the whole show is based on a premise where dead people become reanimated and feast on the flesh of the living, and you're commenting on how realistic it is?

patron Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 SPOILERS. I was really hoping the last episode (the next one) was going to end with Shane dying/everyone else finding the prison. With the introduction of the CDC, and the scene in the woods with Rick and Shane (which was clearly a nod to the hunting scene where Shane dies), it looks like neither of those things is going to happen. END SPOILERS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

END SPOILERS. so....you already thought that they were going to skip wiltshire estates and the farm and go straight to the prison? the passage of time/seasons is off. in the comic it could easily jump forward and it wasn't a huge deal. they leave their first camp because of the impending cold/winter, but when they leave now, it's still the middle of summer. just an observation that makes the translation from comic to television a little weirder.

flood Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 well is we're totally posting spoilers... my bet is the final episode ends with either a fade out of the "all dead do not enter" sign at the estates... or a pull back shot of the prison... both would be sufficient cliffhangers for a tv drama to end on.

lonesomexloveus Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 well, considering the content the show is based on has been around in print for 7 years now, i think it's fair to say that it's not really spoilers ;] that, and the fact that the show is straying pretty far from the original material in some ways. i can definitely see them ending season 1 with everyone thinking theyre safe at wiltshire estates, then letting the viewer see the hidden sign so we know they're actually in danger as the cliffhanger. with the super slow pacing so far, i'm not so sure they'll make it as far as the prison, but who knows!
