Thanks to DogByte6RER for the ping.

I’ve had a hard time supporting Shane, but he’s always been right, Rick just gets his people killed.

A moral society is a luxury that rule .308 underwrites, but it doesn’t plan for walkers. I wish Andrea and Daryl and Maggie and Glenn and everyone else could bust out and go Adam and Eve somewhere safe, like a cruise ship anchored off a OBX island.

He DID betray the entire cast last night, you didn’t watch it?

I only watched the first half hour, I'll finish it tonight

[Hot Tabasco]

Rick killed Shane with a knife, then turned his back on him as Carl ran up

Whoa! I gotta watch the rest tonight.....

Much like Lost did, a great joy of this show is that they kill off really annoying main characters.

The humans on this show got so irritating for a while, I was rooting for the zombies to kill them all.

Now with Dale and Shane (the ying and yang of the show's douchebaggery) both dead, maybe I'll go back to the good side.

And T-Dog got a line last night. Go T-Dog, it's your birthday.

And they've always got to 'get somewhere'. [...]

What galls me about this series is that they're tooling around in crappy high mileaqe vehicles like that lousy motor home and old Chevy farm trucks from the '60s -- yet they've passed up perfectly good Stryker/LAV-25 AFVs and HMMWVs just sitting around.

How about this. Create a large wire excercise wheel like in a gerbil cage, and attach it to your trailer hitch. When you capture zombies, lock them in the gerbil wheel. As long at you sit in the driver's seat, they will try to come get you, pushing the gerbil wheel and pushing the car forward. Its a zombie powered car.

A grocery store is probably the first place that gets looted when society breaks down. Locking up there wouldn’t do you any good.

Well, that's a good point. I'd hope that not everywhere would get looted. Or maybe I'll just plan to be the first to loot and carry enough home to survive at home for a while.

But the main point is that in almost every zombie movie, the main characters are safe for a while in the middle of the movie somewhere where the zombies can't get them, and then they just have to go and mess things up and leave, or call attention to themselves.

[dead]

My single mission in this world would be to get to a nice island, make sure all the walkers are dead on it and then live the good life.

They don't think, they don't swim, they just grunt.

Somewhere nice, with a few WalMarts and Costcos, for years worth of food. Key West maybe.

Hot chicks welcome.

Certainly. It really bothers me that everybody (characters and viewers) supports the execution of the kid from the other group.

You're looking at it from a real world perspective.

I hate Dale because I'm evaluating his value to the television show I'm watching. Every minute he spent pontificating on some "we're not any different!" whine was television time away from battles with zombies. I don't tune into zombie movies for philosophical navel-gazing.

I don't care if he was right or wrong or somewhere in between. He was a nuclear buzzkill for the show's pacing. I'm glad he got ate.

Is it OK if we hot chicks axe as to your hurricane preps? :)

Hot chicks welcome.

We must be on the same page here.

[Lee'sGhost]

Geez....let me get this straight. The whiny libtard not only gets zombinied, he gets a .357 round in the brain....and everybody here is complaining?

[txhurl]

Well. Here's AMC's TWD: This Southern belle is our Walker of the Week! A walker you could really take home to mom. Be sure to share her proudly with your friends.

Lori so has it coming.

I don't look at it the same way. We have murderous thugs in society today, we had them long before the rule of law was ever established and we will have them after the rule of law disintegrates. But society is the biological imperative not the breakdown of society.

Shane hurt his [not really] woman and his [potentially] children by his own dangerous actions. Instead of two guns pointing out from the camp there is now one. The good team beats the all-star ball hog. A lot of people here seem to try to manufacture some sort of conservative vs liberal dichotomy from the show labeling Dale as a gun-grabbing liberal when he was seen with a gun in his hand throughout the whole series. Dale was for the rule of law over the rule of the man with the biggest gun. Shane's world can be seen in practically every failed 3rd world country around the world and throughout history.

Rick's world is the only one worth while surviving in.

[Lancey Howard]

The character had zero credibility from the beginning. When I first saw that caricature at the start of the show I thought, “Wow.. That old-timer sure has quite a mouthful of perfect, very expensive, Hollywood teeth.” And he sure did smile a lot. Good riddance.

[The KG9 Kid]

Don’t send that idea to the White House, please.

[Ultra Sonic 007]

In what way was Dale a libtard?

[mmichaels1970]

When you capture zombies, lock them in the gerbil wheel. As long at you sit in the driver's seat, they will try to come get you, pushing the gerbil wheel and pushing the car forward. Its a zombie powered car.

Nice....you could create all kinds of power generators with this method. You basically have a free/unlimited energy supply.

[Hot Tabasco]

OK, I watched the second half last night and was glad to see Shane get it in the head.

Now, I've questions. If they're all carrying the virus that turns them into walkers once they die, then wouldn't that sorta make them immune to zombie bites unless the zombie actually killed them first?
