The Walking Dead

[rhino]

prolly next season

[mas-36]

So far my favorite character is the old man with the RV, Dale. One thing I don't quite understand....when Dale sneaks off with the bag of guns to hide them. Shane follows him and they have a verbal confrontation. Dale happens to mention that he knew Shane shot Otis. How did he know this???

Also, did they ever find out how the whole zombie thing got started? I don't remember hearing about the origins of the disease when they were at the CDC.

Great show so far. I wish I could dust off my M-1 and be on the show.

Dale did not have definitive proof that Shane killed Otis. But through the end of the season, he had a hunch that Shane was up to no good. He found it odd that Otis did not come back and he did not buy Shane's story. It was more based of a hunch and Shane's body language of the situation that lead Dale to think he killed Otis. Nobody knows how the Zombie epidemic started yet.

[dontknow]

I don't think that the comic explained how the virus spread....so most likely we'll never know how the epidemic started...

[CMNot]

How did he know this???

Because Dale's the ****ing oracle, font of all knowledge.

Here's hoping in 2012 the producers kill ALL the limp, asinine characters that we are currently lumbered with, and turn this into The ****ing Daryl show.

The Walking Dead is a visual analogy for life, and by extension, mankind. You keep tuning in with the HOPE that somehow the humourless shower of bastards making it are going to fulfil the potential promised in the excellent source material. It is this dogged and pervasive HOPE - that I too am afflicted with, sadly - that keeps us tuning in to watching what is, effectively, absolutely nothing. Nothing happens. So far post ZomPoc America has turned out frighteningly little zombies, considering there must be in excess of 200m of them walking around. We just get Lori (someone punch her in the stomach already, or Series 3 will be about her pregnancy), that dumb blonde bitch, the old slag, the Oracle, one policeman who has gone from normal to sociopathic with seemingly no triggers, and the other copper - who I assume is supposed to be virtuous and the peak of man's humility; but is frankly as dull as he was in the dodgy British soap he escaped from.

Kill those mongs; give the bag of guns to Daryl; parachute Daryl into Atlanta; profit.

And how did I manage to forget ****ing Data, who by the looks of it is going to betray his friends for some pussy. Actually, that's unfair: Data was a ****ing gadget ninja. This gook gangbanger has done little more in two seasons than turn into some sort of weird tampon hunter/gatherer.

Don't hold back, Mr. Cranky Pants...tell us how you really feel.

Hope this is not a re-post or OT ...

Anyone read the following: Rise of the Governor.

http://www.amazon.com/Walking-Dead-R...5434689&sr=8-1

Enjoyed it overall. Found it interesting and entertaining. Some surprises. Provides some insight on the spread of the virus. Lots of stupid - but contextually understandable - decsions; kinda sorta maybe, or not at all. Also some pet peeves about technical details ... not sure about using diesel for molotov cocktails or exploding diesel buses; no such thing as a Ford S-10 pick-up; and Harley Electra Glides are not water cooled.

One thing I have not done is go back to the actual comic to see how the two stories sync up ...

After catching up on Season 2, I've given up hope of any good correlation between the show and the comics (save some key locations and some character introductions).


Seriously, Shane is still alive, and Sophia is dead? The ****.

[boone]

1) There was a comic book.
2) There is a TV series.
Get over it nerds or stop watching. Christ.

[Lerch]

There still is a comic book...

[rhino]

finally got the book with Hershal's demise
old geezer went on for a while, at least in the book

[FrankBooth]

Yep and it's still solid at this point.

Just picked up the latest volume
