Breaking Bad would have had that zombie made up properly. [/kidding] Or just had Carl eating somewhere else. Was that only the 103rd time the writers sacrificed believability for effect?

It's seven freaking pounds of pudding. The can was bigger than his head. If he'd really eaten in one sitting he'd be passed out in his own vomit. It's essentially a liquid, and it's literally impossible for a human being to eat that much. I'm starting to hate this show.

Why indeed? And why not add in a brief cut that stands in for a minute or two so that it's credible Korl's shouting at his unconscious father would draw walkers.

Granted, but hey, I'm just the messenger.

If the second set of episodes for the game is like the first set I have bad news for you. Actions often don't carry over, characterization is thin, and the most sophisticated the gameplay gets involves stabbing buttons or keys as fast as you can.

Hey, it's the US. We can watch skulls crushed in closeup, and children slaughtered, but a withered zombie breast? The horror!

Hang on. Lori was so unpleasant because Sarah Wayne Calles can really act. Andrea was so unpleasant because Laurie Holden was given a ridiculous role to play.

Yes, it's ridiculous to not have a rally point. That would have been clear to everyone repeatedly given the entirely expected danger from the Governor.

That doesn't apply here, though. It was strongly implied that they lost aggression over time. They don't just suddenly realize they'll never feast again.

True. All too typical TWD writing, too. You're in the ZA, you've just lost your prison/home, and in a split second lost one of your best friends. You know that the people you see through the window are heavily armed and probably incredibly tense and exhausted. And you knock on the door?? It was ludicrous, the writers…

Yup. My impression from the end of her nightmare was that we were meant to see the two men as her armless companions during season 3. Iirc she told Andrea that they deserved that fate, jawless and in chains. *Somethng* had to have happened to change her opinion of them that radically.

Chandler Riggs has pulled off some difficult pieces of acting well (the aftermath of the deer shooting, for example, and he held up his end of s03e04), but his voice may be stuck as it changes through that kind of hoarseness that lets him alter its volume but otherwise makes it an inexpressive instrument.

"The Governor is still dead. In case anyone was worried about this, allow
me to repeat the point: The Governor is now, and shall ever be, dead.
The bastard doesn’t even get to come back as a zombie. "
