As far as the baby, I think it is strange that NO other babies have shown up yet - not on the road, not in the towns, not in the various camp sites. A few we are left to surmise got devoured by the zombies (like the gory car seat found in an abandoned car). Even Lori was devastated to find out she was pregnant - not only because she was fooling around with Shane but because she didn't really know if it was Shane's or Rick's, once he found them and they reunited. She got Glenn to find her a Plan B package from a pharmacy run as she contemplated the sanity of bringing a baby into such a messed up world. Even Glenn and Maggie used condoms to try to prevent that from happening.
What I DO see in having Judith in the program is that she represents hope - hope that life can STILL happen, that a new generation is coming that will ONLY know this kind of life and, maybe, JUST maybe, she will be a key to some kind of immunization or cure. At least that's my hope. I don't see the logic of having her be dead just when Carl and Rick have lost practicially everything else. I would hope that the writers aren't THAT cruel to us. But, it IS only a TV show after all.
Good points about the babies. I agree that baby Judith represents hope. No, the writers wouldn’t have anything bad happen to her....lets hope.
I think Glen will replace Herschel as the “conscience” of the group.
Carl will end up mentoring to and straightening out Lizzie. In 7 years or so they’d get married. LOL
