I forgot to mention sarcastically in my review that it was an awesome T-Dawg moment what with him muttering a single line and all.

Seriously, I feel kinda bad for the guy who plays him! I hope they let the guy do SOMEthing other than, perhaps, have a gross death scene. Only Patricia and whatsisname (suicide girl's boyfriend--hell, I don't think he was even in the big debate scene, was he? Oh...I think he was watching Carl, IIRC.) have had less to do at this point.

I didn't see the swerve coming with Dale at all. Looking back, the quick bit near the beginning with Dale trusting Andrea with where the guns are now stored serves as a quick summation that the two were back on decent terms with each other.
Click Here For A SpoilerSince I read the books, I was expecting a bait and switch as well. Maybe he'd be able to hide the scratch for a bit, or simply have to have a leg cut off ... but no. I'm really going to miss him. I feel like there's a "voice of reason" among the TV characters that's absent, with Herschel and Andrea not quite ready to step up. I do hope this is the kick in the pants Andrea needed to stand on her own without Shane and want to help the group stay together rather than drive them apart.
If the rumors with Shane are true, it's crazy to think we'll lose three of the original cast this season. I thought the forthcoming bloodshed with Woodbury would be bad. Perhaps they're spreading the losses out instead?

Suicide girl's boyfriend's name is Jimmy. I don't know suicide girl's name though. (Beth maybe??)
Hmm. Suicide Girl would make a pretty cool name for a bad-ass villain lass... she'll probably show up on DC's sure to be craptacular Earth ("THIS IS NOT THE JUSTICE SOCIETY") 2.

I did NOT see that ending with Dale coming! But I loved it! (Even though I'll miss the character and the actor.) I hope the writers continue to shake things up to surprise the readers of the comics. And I echo MLLASH in the hope that that surprise comes in the form of a horrific, gory death for that annoying brat, Carl. (Although I do think the young actor playing him is doing a great job.)
I also echo EDE in the hope that T-Dog stumbles his way to the end of the whole show. Haha That would be great! I'm putting money on it now, though - as soon as he gets more than a line or two in an episode, he'll be dead by the end of it. Mark my words.
Still really enjoying this season. Yes, the WHOLE season. I think it's been much stronger than the first on nearly all fronts. I think I'm actually enjoying the show more than the comic right now. In fact, I don't think it- I know it. The comic has gotten boring and repetitive and the characters even more unlikeable than normal IMO.
Can't wait to see how it all ends up in the last two episodes of the season. A few months ago, I was sure Shane would be toast by the end of it. But now I'm not so sure. It seems like he's kind of resolved his issues with Rick/Lori for the moment and with all this drama with the Governor's (?) people brewing, it doesn't seem like they'll have time to get back to it before the season's over.

Sorry to see that character go... will be interesting to see how Andrea is impacted... Shane too... not that much was keeping Shane from going all the way over the edge, but at least there was a pesky voice of reason buzzing in his ear...

Felt it was a great payoff tonight. Many fans of the show, especially those who have not read the comics, will not like that death, but I felt it was richly deserved and nicely executed by the actors.
AMC is known for shows not afraid to take risks. This will help further that rep.

Two massive episodes in a row, and next time out looks totally wicked.
Two things though...
Why can't Lori watch her son for more than 10 seconds at a time?
Where did all those Walkers in the woods come from? Or are they from another direction that our guys were not in?

BTW-- I am totes excited about next week's "Night of the Living Dead"-ish looking episode (makes up for them suddenly inserting a boatload of zombies in the woods out of nowhere)!
And with that, MLLASH'S OFFICIAL LIST OF DEATHS FOR NEXT WEEK:
You can put this in the bank-- THESE characters WILL be dying:
T-DAWG: As cute as it would be to see him make it to the end, he's OUTTAHERE y'all.
JIMMY: You remember him, he was even shown tonight hammering something to remind you!
SUICIDE GIRL (Beth?): Yep, you shoulda did it right the first time... now you're zombie chow!
