The Walking Dead...

[cowboyeric8]

What an insult to the show to compare it to wrestling.

As for Shane he is just a little girl and has no honor. Just a worthless human being.

 

[zrinkill]

Seems pretty much spot on to me.

That is because you are an ....... ....... well you are just being you.

 

[fifaguy]

Wow!

I didn't see that ending coming!

Not much zombie action, but the ending took me by surprise.

Good episode.

Indeed! I'm assuming they are all infected (it went airbourne), so as soon as they die now they come back as zombies regardless of how they died?

 

[Lodeus]

^That is what seems to be happening.

I think the people that escape the barn(which I think is what they'll have to do) will run into new characters.

How do you imagine they will escape with all those zombies moving in? There's no way they can pack up everything and leave that quickly.

Herd as many as they can in to the barn then torch it.....kill the rest.

for most zombie movies, you die you come back. period. unless you're taken out by a head wound that would also kill the zombie.

The odd thing about it is that earlier in the series they showed people that were just dead, not dead zombies, but just people dead in cars and so on.

So if they go with the everybody dies and becomes a zombie because it is airborne or other scenario...they will have to go with the idea that the disease or virus has mutated from the original strain.

good point. now i can see more of where the "confusion" comes from.

Well maybe there was chemical warefare on those highways and the chemicals destroyed the brain like a bullet/knife would. That would explain why there are no obvious head wounds or stuff like that.

i was talking to a co-worker who is also into the series and i never knew it until today. she said she read on some blogs that cover it that those in the cars died of head trauma or some other head injury that prevented the comeback as a zombie.

i'm not gonna go back and look at every dead traffic situation to see but it's one of those ? of the series. not that bad overall unless they play off it later and it becomes a continuity issue.

Bingo. It's airborne most likely.

I've read that it could be in the water, which would also make sense. And considering the zombies consistently getting stuck in the mud and the one in the well, there's at least some tangible connection.

Great show last night! And next week...Michonne?

Considering all that seems like it will happen at the barn next week, I can't imagine a major character being introduced. I don't know when they meet her in the books, but it would have to be after they leave the farm I would think, otherwise it means she's going to rush in and save the day...which means it was a huge coincidence or she was just living on her own at the farm anyways.

I just don't think the episode can cover enough ground to kill all those walkers, make a decision on where to go, leave the farm, and run into another major character.

I doubt it either. Also have to consider that if they were going to be in this last episode we would have heard about them hiring the actress long ago. It was just recent news about the actress being hired to play the role and this season has been done for some time.

So next season would seem to be the time.

I am curious of who goes now though. They got rid of shane and dale but with a mass invasion coming they will have to lose a character or two. I would think that since they really have not developed or shown much of T-Dog he would be one of them.

 

[Manwiththeplan]

yea imo, rick, lori, carl, glenn, maggie and the other blond chick from the original group are likely safe. Hershall can go either way. T-Dog, Sophia's mother, and Hershall's other two kids are food.

t-dog is my guess if they stay with original casting.

otherwise, i think otis's wife or the blonde daughter are zombie bait.

any guesses if daryls brother is leading the other group?

I said to my wife it would be funny if Merle was the leader of that group.

There was an interesting theory posted on another forum concerning the "disease" and how it's transmitted and how/why non-bite victims reanimate.

Essentially the theory is that anyone who comes in contact with the blood/body fluids of a reanimated corpse becomes infected themselves, who'll reanimate at death– even without being bitten.

Not saying I buy it, but it's an interesting alternative to the "air-borne" everyone's infected theory.

Coming into contact with infected fluids like blood as we have seen, does not trigger the virus. But bites and scratches do. It has to be blood born and air born somehow.

Perhaps it is concentrated in the saliva? But that dosent explain the scratch component. Nor people cutting themselves with contaminated knives.

Well, looks like I won't get to see the finale, at least not on TV.

Suddenlink and AMC apparently can't come to an agreement on a new contract so today is the last day I'll have AMC.

That really blows. Not really sure who's at fault but it really sucks.

I am on suddenlink as well. Have had no complaints with the cable or cable internet service over the years. Actually it seems to be miles better than some other providers as I hear other people complain about their cable services all the time.

But it will suck if we lose AMC because of the walking dead and breaking bad alone. Also liked Hell on wheels.
