^^^ Morally ambigious? That was his crowning moment of awesome.

Prior to Rick catching up to the group and taking over, Shane was a sympathetic character. He offered a lot to the group until his jealousy or some underlying psychosis led him to go off the deep end.

And his underlying psychosis was put in place at least partially by the fact that Lori was a crazy bitch and couldn't have fucked up that situation any more if she tried. Full disclosure, thought you were dead, end of the world, boned Shane we should probably find a way to make our wacky new family work for the rest of what is sure to be our short short lives.

I mean I know thanks to Carl's actor being too stupid to stay the same size it's hard to remember but it's only been (depending on whom you ask) between eighteen and thirty months since the Zombie Apocalypse started.

Season 1: Takes place over several days, possibly several Weeks.
Season 2: a few weeks to a few months.
Season 3: Starts with a time skip past winter. But Lori is still pregnant and it's brought up that she's not sure if it's Rick's or Shanes. So the mid point of S3 is no more than 9 months from the second episode of S1
Season 4: A few weeks at the outside for the first half until the Governor's final attack, Maybe two or three months after that.
Season 5: ????

Life in Zombie land really is too short for jealousy.

He's born-again hard, man.

Dr. Edwin Jenner: "You all look harmless enough."


(to Carl) "Except you. I'll have to keep my eye on you."


If he only knew.

All I'm saying is that if Carl had gotten that gun snatched from him at the end of season 3 and gotten him, Beth and Hershel killed nobody would be saying "Well look at Carl, good job!" No you'd all be hating on him being useless. He does something right you fucking praise him!

Tainted Meat (oh whoah oh oh)

 

[MNGuy]

[Wat_Tyler]

I always got the impression another winter had come and gone by the time Season 4 began (winter by the standards of Georgia). The former Woodbury people had been thoroughly integrated into prison society, and Rick had his garden and his pigs. I might be wrong, of course.

As for tonight, I watched the first 40 minutes assuming Rick had become totally stupid. I was pleased to see I was wrong.

Another great episode. I love that Rick "kept his promise."

There is only so much Zombie Apocalypse I can take. I haven't watched WD since the end of season 2.

Also why is Japan Zombie free? Ninja's and Samurai

 

[deathbypickle]

My son, husband and I watch this faithfully.

Could not wait to get to the Bob scenes with the terminus group.

 

[spacekowboy]

These people obviously didn't know who they were fucking with.

It's good to have my sword back.

Would Sasha get zombie seed in her if they fucked during Bob's dying scenes?

I'm with you.
The premise of a viral cause for WD's apocalypse doesn't work. If it had a "natural" cause the zombies would stop after a few days, maybe a week, max.
The nervous system runs on electricity from bio-chemical reactions.
If cellular metabolism stops, where is the energy coming from?
If the cells are still metabolizing, then the "zombie" is alive, needing a functioning heart, lungs, digestive system, etc. This was clearly shown that the walkers' don't have any of this at the end of season one, and at the emotional climax of season two (when Carol's daughter is revealed as a walker & finally put down).

I had that same thought!

 

[ms_ann_thrope]

After all that build up "was Bob" bitten"? "Did the Terminus people eat tainted meat"? Rick's crew just kills them. Ok...time to move on.

The Viral Cause is probably the most effective premise for zombies.. it's a meningitis type of virus according to CDC (before it self destructed) and somehow therefore generates it's own bio-electrical impulses to maintain muscular mobility. Thus the headshot to take them down.
What I never got about zombies is why they have to eat? I guess non dangerous zombies just shuffling about makes for boring TV/movies..

Watching their smug douche mouths spit out his meat in disgust was highly amusing. Bob got the last laugh!

Doing it in a crowded church, after being bitten by a zombie, is unlikely to have happened. But it's an interesting thought experiment. Can the sperm of a bitten person add to the danger, considering everyone is already infected? Can such sperm lead to conception? Do I want the producers to somehow work this into a future Cronenberg-like storyline? (Yes, I do.)

I was sort of curious as to whether there's anything wrong with eating "tainted meat," considering everyone is already infected. I have been assuming everyone still living is aware of this by now. It's bizarre that you could bring yourself to eat human flesh, but the idea of eating future-zombie flesh is the thing that makes it abhorrent.

It's just 4 walls and a roof.
