Who will be the one to take a bullet--or a bite in the neck--during the season finale?
My prediction is that Herschel, Beth and Carol die. Tyrese, Sasha and Milton join Rick’s group.
For a funny Walking dead parody, see below:

Andrea
Baby Judith
Hershel
Beth
The cameo in the middle was good! :-)
You’re right about baby Judith.
Somebody dies while saving her.
To kill that little innocent would be beyond terrible.
Well I think Allen, the Governor, and yes Hershel may die along with many walkers. As for the rest, I think they will surive.
However, I know what the book says about the end of their stay at the prison; but, I'm hoping a few more characters get out than is depicted there.
Heh. TV show from the point of view of a zombie. That would be fun.
There are currently about #437,652,903 TV shows and movies out there about a "zombie apocalypse". How people can get excited about The Walking Dead and zombies biting random people every week is beyond me. George Romero milked that tired idea to death.
I only enjoy zombies when they put a new spin on the idea, like Zombieland making it a zany comedy/satire with Bill Murray and having specific "rules" for surviving zombie attacks pop up on screen throughout the movie. WHAT does Walking Dead do that hasn't been done a million times before? None of its fanboys can explain to this to me.
The "zombies" we see in movies and TV shows like that aren't even real zombies. The "traditional" intrepretation of a zombie in western culture was always a dead person brought back by voodoo or something that mindlessly obeys the orders of whoever brought it to life, and does their bidding. Only since the 1960s Romero zombies has it come to mean a rotting group of leaderless corpses stumbling around looking to eat humans. It's funny the Romero purists hate zombies who eat brains, too. If you're going to reinvent them to eat flesh for no specific reason, there's nothing wrong with a variation that craves human brains.
Sorry, had to rant about this ridiculous zombie craze. I have zero interest in Walking Dead. If I want to watch zombies eat people, the 1985 classic Return of the Living Dead is infinitely more interesting.
This one is great: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a8z_dJoWjP4
She's toast. Both the baby and whoever is holding her are going to die. My prediction is that Sunday nights episode is a bloodbath, and we will be saying goodbye to a lot of the actors. I didn't put Maggie and Glenn in my original post of deaths; but, only because I have become very attached to them. But, I'm thinking they may be on their way out. Which is sad, because Glenn has been with us as long as Rick. It was Glenn who got Rick out of that tank and to safety in the first episode.
It's good. Very good. Not all of the ZA films and series are good. This one is top of the line talent, wonderful effects. I love ZA films, I hate fast zombies, I love slow zombies that you actually have a shot at surviving.
I understand your POV because it was also mine. However, hubby and I were bored one evening and I had heard it was a good show, so we tried the first episode; wham, we are hooked.
It is bloody, it is gory; but, it is also a very character driven piece. For something based on a graphic novel, the characters a very well done and interesting and the writing and story is addictive.
People for the Ethical Treatment of Zombies?
LOL. Don’t repeat that too often or Obama will appoint a cabinet position to look after Zombies!
I don’t who you are that is just funny
More might die than live. Your analysis is pretty good.
{I hope they don’t show the baby getting killed}.
I sure hope it’s not the baby. That would be just so sad. But on the other hand it would be interesting to see if she turns, being born after the ZA. I think the governor wants to kill her because of what happened to his daughter. He has no soul so he should become a walker.
It's violent. (check) It's gory. (check) It has well-written characters. (check) Yep. Seen it, seen it, seen it.
For starters... Night of the Living Dead (and its remake), Dawn of the Dead (and its remake), 28 Days Later, 28 Weeks Later, Shaun of the Dead, Zombieland, Pet Sematary, Return of the Living Dead, Return of the Living Dead 2, Return of the Living Dead 3, Dead Alive, Evil Dead, Evil Dead 2, Army of Darkness, Re-Animator, Bride of Re-Animator, Beyond Re-Animator...
every single one of them was a well-written and well-received zombie film that contained the traits you mentioned. I thoroughly enjoyed a lot of those movies. I enjoy steak and potatoes too, but not steak and potatoes for dinner every night.
"It's Good"
Because it's fanboys say it is. At the Christopher Nolan fanboys had actual reasons why it was different and better than Burton's Batman. (though amusingly, they would change the reasons everytime a new Nolan movie came out)
Didn’t Glenn die in the comics?
I don't think so. As the series evolves, I believe he's going to be one of those perpetual bad guys who will peridically surface in future episodes as he pursues the clan.
They're too single dimensional........all they want to do is eat intestinal bratwursts........
Walking Dead does one big thing, which is basically to solve the “problem” Robert Kirkman (creator of the comic) always had with the Romero movies. It delves into what happens next. He loves the Romero movies, but he wanted to see a long term story, see the characters change, who lives, who dies, who flakes, who learns. That’s the draw. If you don’t like the genre it’s not a draw for you, but if you do it’s pretty awesome. The comic’s been going almost 10 years now, and we still keep asking “what happens next”.
Oh and Romero didn’t change zombies. In Night Of the Living Dead he called them “ghouls”, in fact they haven’t been called zombies in any of his zombie movies. It really happened when movie makers started ripping off his movies, THEY called them zombies and it stuck.
The reason some Romero purists hate brain eating zombies is actually because they’ve taken up a bit of a personal battle for George. John Russo helped him make Night, and they had a bit of a falling out. During the course of the falling out Russo managed to keep the rights to the “living dead” phrase (notice Romeros further zombie movies they’re just “dead” not living). Russo went on to produce Return of the Living Dead, which was the first movie where zombies specifically targeted brains (and even said it). Most fans of the genre don’t care, some folks are weird and like to fight other people’s fights.
