It's my first season too and I'm with you on the boyfriend thing. Setting aside the fact that Zoe knew him for all of 10 minutes before Madison crashed the bus, has neither of those girls ever seen a movie? Yeah, sure they're magic and all, but in what piece of art, pop culture, folklore, etc. has conjuring the dead…

I think the girls are feeding them too, and I can't help but wonder if we're not about to see some new variety of zombie evolve out of the walker horde. When Lizzie (was that her name? The newbies haven't stuck with me yet) was talking to Carol about Nick (yet his name I remember no problem, hmm) she said he was…

I had the same question. And it got even more annoying when Glen said they'd wired the boomboxes outside the store to car batteries to draw out the walkers. If you're going to explain some of it, why not all of it? I guess the Rick could have used a similar setup back at the prison, but why not have Glen throw…

Did anybody get a good look at what it was that Ray took with him? I saw him pick up something rectangular but couldn't make out what it was.

I'm kinda torn on Sonya's reaction to Marco throwing her out of his hospital room. She's beat up, both physically and emotionally, so she's bound out be more than a little off (and she's off even when she's on). But when he gave her that "we're not friends line," part of me really wanted her to point out that by…

My thought exactly. He's exactly the kind of asshole I would have wasted years trying to fix when I was in my 20s. I've learned to leave messes like that alone, but I can't help but have a soft spot for him.

I thought so too, but I wrote it off as the sink dripping after Sonya gulped water down with her pills. And is that a septic tank Gus is trapped in? My claustrophobia and gag reflex were both working overtime.

I got sucked into a Suits marathon on Cloo over the weekend, and the raspberry bran bars have apparently been at the top of his list since he was hired. I appreciated the continuity.

I wasn't expecting an anatomical model like you'd find in a biology classroom @avclub-7e1ce4ce3124fd9ecc13a151afcff11b:disqus , but I didn't see all the organs you listed. Maybe I just wasn't paying enough attention, but once the cow was split in half all I could think of was the red velvet cake from Steel Magnolias.

This is probably one of those "that's not how I pictured him when I read the book" kind of things, but I'm not liking the actor playing Junior at all. I don't recognize him, so I can't say for sure if I think he's a bad actor or if he's just miscast here, but something about him just isn't sitting right. Since this is…

I don't think so either. If memory serves BOOK SPOILERS

I was optimistic when I heard they were doing 13 hour-long episodes, hoping that amount of time would allow the story to be told without it being scrapped for parts. And from what I saw tonight, I'm on board for the foreseeable future. Fingers crossed.

I really liked Lisey's Story, but that's one of those that won't translate well to TV/movie.

Rob Lowe and Molly Ringwald didn't bother me at all. What puts it over the top, especially when you go back and rewatch it now, is Jamie Sheridan with his denim-on-denim outfits and vintage Michael Bolton hair. He's not a bad actor and if memory serves, he did the part justice, but the outfits dates the whole thing…

That bugged me too. If you're going to go to all the trouble of bisecting a cow, why not take the time and make the guts look like more than ready-made hamburger? Maybe I'm just watching too much Hannibal, where the body parts are beautifully (and grossly) done, but if that's all the budget they had or all the ick…

Could be @avclub-73c45f08920df12cb1956acc1441eef1:disqus , but wasn't there a scene when she first returned to the house when she mentioned how clean the kitchen was?If I'm remembering right, the response had something to do with how good the crime scene cleaners were.

I keep going back and forth on this. OTOH, the blood evidence at her house and the ear make it entirely believable that she's toast (or being spread on toast). But the fact that we didn't see her killed or a body or body parts leaves me with nagging doubts. Others have noted Will's mention of the arterial spray in the…

I don't think he'd eaten it either. Didn't notice a single bite mark and swallowing it whole seems unlikely if only from a choking hazard perspective. Plus, if you're going to go to the trouble of eating someone, wouldn't tasting it basically be the most of the point?

Now you've gone too far.

That expression was perfect, especially the fact that she tried, and failed for a second or two, to have any visible reaction to the drawing. I doubt anyone has ever been so happy to learn someone they care about has an inflamed brain.
