So the experiment at Woodbury to determine whether the walkers retain their memories after being zombified showed negative results right? Then what about in the first couple of episodes of season one, where Rick stays with the man and his son in Atlanta. Every night the mother, a walker, remembers where their house is and even attempts to open the door!! Surely that's memory retention of some sort.

And how about that zombie who could shave, attempt to read a Stephen King novel and talk to his Aunt Alicia? Hang on, that was Day of the Dead...


Just for interest, are there any Walking Dead fans here who HAVEN'T seen any of George Romero's Dead films?

she is an actress on a TV show, Peter it isn't real it's all pretend. So no I didn't feel fear for her being held captive because it all ends when the director yells cut. LMAO

She is a pretty woman but those images really don't do her justice. Maybe a 13yo would get turned by them.
I thought this was real life....o_O

1, Why did the Gov threaten her that he was gonna have his way but then stop. If I'm to believe this guy is capable of messing things up he's at least gotta say 'Hands by your sides girl!'

2, I have read the comics and the little girl was named Judith in the comics. I guess they thought they better use the same name but what a stupid way to pick it. Remember that teacher from......

3, Glenn can take a beating fo sho


4, Here's hoping the mid-season mid-finale mid-standoff can show more of Maggies mid-riff

1. maybe the thought of being penetrated without consent is worse in this case....a form of mental torture. Or, perhaps he was without protection and didn't want to risk an STD.

2. fair enough, gotta keep some consistency between film and text.

3. glenn is a hard arse. really developed into a trusty 3IC. that and he's banging a hot broad. the thought of that would keep any man going.

4. well, im guessing glenn will give up his shirt for her, so :(

Yeah I really like his character and the arc has been believable.

If he gives up his shirt he's dropping to 4IC behind Carl

Yeah Glenn is awesome now. He had his face pounded in and still didn't give up the Prison.

So the comics didn't have the same story regarding Judith's name? They must be sick of writing for Carl and just couldn't be bothered.

iirc Lori picks the name in the comics, would have to dig my copy out to check.

So they had to make up some bullshit because they killed Lori prematurely

That sentence just looks totally wrong. I understand you're saying compared to the comics, but it's still not right to call Lori's death premature.

Quality episode. Looking forward to the mid season finale. It may even be promoted to first show watched Monday. I'm hoping Daryl kills Merle and Michonne gets Andrea, maybe bent over and pantless for more than a split second (now getting weird visions involving the sword). 2-Dog to take out the Gov in his quest to match the awesome of his predecessor.

As others have said, wtf was with the cabin scene. Just stupid.
