That is a new character called Michonne. From what I understand her zombie pets are her old boyfriend and his best friend. She hacked their arms and jaws off so that they can’t attack her. Apparently she uses them to kind of camouflage herself from the other zombies.


That’s creepy.

I don’t know how any of the living can work up an apetite after all the gore.

I haven’t been following “Walking Dead”, but, aren’t these just repeats of the original episodes last year?

These were new episodes with the S2 finale tonight. This season was broken into two halves. The first half was somewhat slow, the second half really picked up and ended well. Sounds like S3 is going to be more action packed which I will be glad to see. Character development is important, but the show has sometimes gotten bogged down in it in the past.

I think that was a character named Michonne. She`s a super bad***. She keeps armless walkers on leashes.

Yeah, it’s pretty gross. I am learning all this stuff from the IMDB Walking Dead forum. There are a lot of people who read the comic posting there and they know all the trivia.

It is probably not the case that everybody is going to become a zombie when they die.
For scientific reality on the show: it is probably the case that the virus when it enters through a small cut or eyes,etc remains subdued or dormant in healthy human beings unless the load is high from an injury or bite wound.

Now it could be the case, that the virus can be caught from human contact through touching and door knobs and enter through rubbing the nose, scratching the eyes, in which case this is probably the waiting and dormant/subdued version. This might also be the case when killing zombies, splattering blood and inhaling those particles etc.

Some people will be immune , some will have stronger or weaker immunities to the more subdued version.

Contract negotiations were rough this season.

lol

I didn’t watch Season 1 until it was over and I decided to watch it via Netflix.

Now, I DVR it each Sunday night.

I didn’t realize that tonight’s episode is the season finale.

We cut our satellite, but I get it through Amazon instant video for 1.99 an episode (cheaper yet if you’re in Amazon Prime or order the whole season). It comes out on Amazon the next day.

He did reanimate. He attacked Glen and Darryl. After they killed him they examined him and saw he had no bites, only a broken neck.

I assumed Sean was infected by the knife he used to cut his hand with for blood to draw zombies to the bus door after using it to stab the zombie cops in the head at the fence.

Rubbing his wrists raw and bloody in the barn on shackles that might have been used with zombies would also explain the infection.

Heck of an episode, heck of a season. I watch it with the wife (which shocks me, she’s not generally a genre girl), but she’s never read the books. I was so psyched to see Michonne. Next week Mad Men is back, AMC is the best TV network ever.

That reminded me of the thugs in Africa who keep muzzled hyenas on leashes

I don’t understand the point of the show. After the first 30 minutes its all a repeat. Run way from zombies, shoot zombies, etc. etc.

I love a good head splatter just as much as the next dumb-guy but come on man I’m trying to eat my bowl of spaghetti here.
