As a "cable guy," he theoretically has real job skills to fall back on when America gets tired of him. Unlike Bristol Palin.

You know, it's a shame that Lifetime didn't stick with the original concept of "Bristol lives with a guy but doesn't have sex with him." John McCain could have played Mr. Roper.

I have to say I'm disappointed with this film's soundtrack. With all the money they saved on wardrobe, you'd think they could have afforded better music.

My girlfriend and I are moving in together next month. This weekend, we had the "which TV gets the Atari" discussion. Apparently, me and my cartridges are being banished to the TV in the home office.

Wikipedia says Atari sold 1.5 million "E.T" cartridges, but had at least 2.5 million more returned unsold by retailers. That should (according to an IGN article cited by Wikipedia) make it Atari's third best-selling game ever (fifth best ever, if you count non-Atari games for the 2600).

Atari released Pac-Man in 1982. Almost all of Atari's 1982 games have crappy visuals. (Good graphics were always a rarity in Atari's own cartridges — most of the good-looking games people remember are from Activision and other non-Atari companies!)

I'm amazed how many people don't understand Pete's line from Season One. And can't do math. (Season 1 was set in 1960; this episode in 1966. If Don is turning 40 now, he's 34/35 in Season 1.)

It was the other one. Who isn't even Herschel's daughter. She's Otis's wife.

Now that you mention it, the show would be much improved by an educational film-style voiceover.

So far, zombies have seem to have avoided trying to bite people on the head, which actually makes sense. If there *is* a zombie disease, evolution would favor strains of the disease that make their hosts *not* risk damaging victims' brains.

Carol and Daryl can't hook up. Daryl is gay.

That plan might not work in a world where mindless zombie herds walk in one direction until they hit something. You'll end up with zombie herds walking into the ocean and floating around until they wash up on the shores of your island!

COMIC SPOILER: In the comics, one of her first major storylines is seducing another survivor's boyfriend. Imagine how badly the television writers would handle THAT. (We may only be saved from that disaster by the fact that the show has fewer couples than the comic.)

Stores like Walmart would be some of the first places to run out of supplies and/or get looted in a zombie apocalypse.

To me, it honestly looks like the walkers opened the door. A door which opens OUTWARDS, so it wasn't even a case of zombies battering a door down.

I don't see that, but there is a bit where the hat peaks out over Herschel's shoulder. Maybe you saw that?

Her introduction in the comics is about as half-assed. The only difference is she shows up out of nowhere to save a different character from a pack of zombies.
