Also, the ring was stunning. Thank goodness a Real Housewife of Atlanta wandered by.

I was thinking this was an engagement. I was sort of hoping there might be 2 minutes at the end of the season for a few words from Hershel (or Rick, their leader) to acknowledge the commitment, and for Glenn and Maggie to pledge it publicly. That is what marriage is, its about community recognition of the…

I think Carol is absolutely lovely, and the more you get to know her the more beautiful she becomes.

Thank gawd I'm not the only one who wonders about these things. There is an IKEA in Atlanta, personally I would be camping there, or at least shopping.
 
AND…the burning question on eveyone's mind…where do they go to the bathroom? And isn't it starting to stink?

I noticed that jacket, too, and loved it! If Daryl gets killed, can I have the jacket?

The whole point of NOT having that conversation was to show how far
down Rick had sunk. He couldn't see the inhumanity in his decision. The
others could, but they had placed their trust in Rick for so long they didn't know what to do. In the end, Rick is redeemed and hopefully that will pay off next week.

I really don't understand why people think they should waste their time killing walkers along the fence. What would be the point, new ones would arrive soon enough. Atlanta isn't that far away and has an endless supply of walkers. I would rather conserve my calories and use them to make the fence stronger.

When the group was at the CDC we all learned that "turning" could take from minutes to 8 hours.

Gasoline is also unusable after several months without a stabilizer. 

We all actually DO like the show, which is why we watch it year after year, then gather here to discuss what was awesome, what didn't make sense to us, and how we might imagine it even better. I take it for granted that most people who bring up one point of contention actually liked the show overall.  And, if you want…

It is clear to my psychic vision that Rick sends Hershel and Beth away in a car with the baby. His outnumbered group is going to have to resort to some guerilla tactics and they can't do that with a crying baby and a one-legged man. Hershel and Baby can't go alone, so Beth is the only other choice to go.

You're so romantic Akbar.

The best part of The Talking Dead was when Michael Rooker said Merl kicked Michonne out of the car because he was sick of hearing her talk.  He was quite funny.

It was my brother, he had a car just like that. Bought it for $300 then spend thousands adding stereos, alarms, radar etc. He wired all of these things himself, then the car caught fire on the highway and was a total loss.

He's lost a bit of weight, that's for sure.

Rick's decision wasn't well documented, but I didn't feel it was random.
They could have done a better job in the previous episodes setting up
the fact that he hadn't decided what to do about Michonne, even though it was obvious to everyone else what the correct decision was.

I got the impression that Daryl figured it out. Seeing a trail of bodies - not all of them zombies - must have made him know he was on Merle's trail.

That was a beautiful bit of acting on his part.

I thought this episode was better than a B. We've been begging for character development for two seasons, and it has
been happening and we finally get clear evidence of it. We now have a reason to differentiate Rick from the Governor. They now a have clearly distinct ethos. The lightbulb going on in Merle's head…

I was pretty positive she was going to die when they cut to the Talking Dead promo and Laurie Holden was the guest.
