Very cool!!

My good friend Frank Nicotero is a comedian in LA, used to be on Comedy Central, etc, and his cousin is Greg Nicotero who does all of the makeup on TWD! I plan to go out to his studio one of these days!

So what does everyone think about Carol killing off and burning people? I do not believe they had turned. I think she bashed in their heads and killed them in cold blood. Maybe it is just me but, I just don't like her character.

It seemed out of character for her; and, it clearly bothered her conscience given her reaction later. It seemed a very severe reaction to the circumstance, so I don't yet understand it at this time. I wonder if it'll come up again or not. I think parts of her are numbing out -- like when she was down on the dock trying to fix the water source and zombies were closing in and part of her didn't want to care / didn't want to react....that tells me parts of her are at the end of the rope.

How about that GIGANTIC herd of zombies? OMG. I wonder if they'll arrive at the prison in that size.

I don't want Glen to die, I really like him . I don't think he's gonna die though bc he plays an important moral balance in the group.

Do you guys think we're going to see the Governor again?

I find Carol's character very interesting. In the first season, she played a battered woman victimized by husband, and then she lost her daughter Sophia, and it took many weeks to find her only to learn that she had become a zombie. That's got do something bad to your psyche. I think she saw Rick fall apart and become too indecisive, and she just decided she's tired of all the democracy and she's taking matters into her own hands. Teaching the children to defend themselves without getting their parents permission and then killing and burning the flu victims seems worlds apart from the earlier Carol, but if anything she's a survivor and has learned to adapt and cope.

That herd of zombies was terrifying and yes, I think we'll definitely see the Governor again. I want them to dig a giant pit and put a noise maker in the center and just have all the zombies fall in the pit. On a side note, what happens to zombies in the North, do they freeze during the winter and thaw in spring?

Same thing happened to me. But, oh well. I guess that's what you get for joining these kind of threads.

Totally agree on Carol - I think she's one of the most fascinating characters on the show bc she is SO strong, but is also quite fragile and complex. She feels things deeply during a time when a lot of feelings just need to stuffed due to circumstances. Above all, she's a survivor and was one loooong before the zombies showed up.

I also find myself utterly fascinated by Carl - I love how they deal with his character. They don't get too inside his head, even though very complicated things are happening there. Which makes sense bc in real life, we often can't get inside a child's head either bc kids can't articulate what's really occurring on the inside. Carl's role is so perfectly cast too, the actor is spot on.

LMBO, good question !! They must freeze but since they don't ever die, they must dethaw come spring! So in that case, the crew needs to go North for a winter vacation from the zombies . Like snowbirds, but in reverse.

If only it were that easy.

I've never gone but our town has a zombie walk to raise money for local shelters. This will be the fourth year they have had it. I wish I had know about it before hand, this is really something I enjoy doing. Scaring people and helping out a great cause.

How FUN, lol! Would love to see that in person. What a great idea. I bet there'll be a ton of zombies for Halloween, eh?

[dawn27]

I'll be sure to look for it next year....

I'm not sure I'm happy about Rick's latest decision. Opinions?

I was shocked, although I understand both sides. I believe he thinks that she's a loose cannon, but that's not really accurate. I think because of her helplessness in the past, she went too far the other way and seemed angry that Rick was so indecisive. I do think she's adaptable, and the others might have helped changed her mind about making choices without consulting others. I can also understand Rick's decision of having her leave the group, he promised to find the person who did this, and Tyreese wouldn't have given up on this. Also, Rick's decisions have to be based on protecting his kids, and part of that protection means that he has to protect their humanity, if they become something that only thinks of survival, then they won't be any different than the zombies. I think it's an interesting twist to the show, and wonder if Carol will meet up with the Governor, I don't think he knows her face.

I almost fell for it yet again . .

Skipped past all the comments to say:

" Your not going to spoil it for me this time" LOL
