The group needs to get walking.
Herchel can just go bat shit crazy and burn the farm to the ground, that should drive them away. :)[/quote]
This quote is full of Win!
Just watched this last night can’t believe I didn’t see the little girl zombie coming.

How are walkers in the barn a non issue? Dude the walkers in the barn are the reason why the girl turned into a walker. Not to mention all walkers should be killed sooooo they have less chance of turning regular people into walkers.[/quote]
I mean the specific instance of walkers-in-the-barn. Not walkers in general. They didn’t get out without Shane’s help. So they used a bunch of ammunition, made a bunch of noise to kill a bunch of walkers that couldn’t do anything, and pissed off the guy that saved Carl’s life and fixed up Daryl.[/quote]
BINGO
What exactly did shooting up the Barn do? Rick would have noticed the girl in the Barn working with Herchal.
And Glen was winning over the old guys kid over and she was starting to make the old guy listen.
So now they killed a dozen Zombies Made a bunch of Noise and am I the only one wondering how they can afford to waste all that ammo??[/quote]
I want to state that I really like this show. I look forward to it. I like it enough to type about it on-line.
The writing staff is struggling. They had budget cuts to fund Mad Men.
Nothing will come of the noise. Nothing. Because even though in season one gunshots attracted walkers, now they can practice shooting and shoot zombies with impunity.

No, you are not. Unfortunately none of the writers are wondering about it. They have stopped scrounging for weapons all together. The group has somehow gotten more violent/hardened but the same group that will go back into Atlanta for a fucking bag of shotguns and deer rifles waltzed past all the M4’s outside the CDC, voluntarily disarms, and has Lori going for the de-facto chair of the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence.

Yeah, plus the issue with Rick’s big dick revolver. I remembered that in Season 1 Shane hooked him up with 3 or 4 rounds and he’s been gladly running around capping walkers with his magical .357 bullet factory, even lent it to Otis for some gratuitous zombie killing.
Also, several hand guns magically appeared like the additional Glocks and Beretta. They only had this one sports bag of guns/ammo so where does all the plentiful handgun ammo come from? Surely not from “no gunz on this farm”-Hershey…[/quote]

This guy should be writing this show, I like this show and so does the Wife.
But it still could be better.
And fuck mad men, this show has a chance to be long term and more popular.

They should turn AUD into an HBO series, with the Werewolf guy from True Blood (Joe Manganiello) as Adrian Ring.

Never seen True Blood so cant agree or disagree.
I just know that AUD is well written, engaging and what I enjoy in a end of the world book.

Bunch of Shanes in this thread. I’d much rather stay alive with Rick then become a savage and get shot by Shane.[/quote]
Exactly - Shane’s only loyal as long as you can provide him a service, once you are no longer of use to him or you have something he wants, kiss your ass goodbye.
There is no society to him, it’s take what you want when you want it, fuck everyone else. Sociopath is the clinical term I believe.[/quote]
I wouldn’t go so far as to call him a Sociopath. He’s a nob and ruthless, but still one of the most usefull people in the group.
Glenn is the best character in my opinion
Dale needs to keep his nose out things. He’s my least favourite.
Has anybody read the Novel “Walkind Dead: Rise of the Govenor” and WWZ?
if so, are they worth the read?
WWZ is fantastic. Couldn’t put it down.

Anyone else think that Hershel wanted them to stay out of the barn b/c he knew that Sophia was in there too?[/quote]
Anyone watch the Talking Dead and can confirm this? I don’t watch it but I was told it was mentioned that Otis (and this was apparently subtly revealed in a previous episode which I failed to catch) was mainly responsible for the capturing and placing of walkers in the barn and would have been the one to put Sophia in leaving him the only one aware and now dead?
any of you jokers read the “day to day armageddon” books? I’m new to the zombie genre, thanks to this show, and i’m itching to read more zombie gore.

LOL, that’s funny on several levels. Between you (honestly that logic post about made me piss myself), ink and dixie posting all of these, i don’t know how anything actually gets discussed. I can skim threads just for the lulz

I loved WWZ. It is one of those rare books that sticks with you long after you read it. Too bad they butt-fucked the movie.

I don’t know for what reason they deviated from the books on this one, but in the graphic novels, the scene where they escape downtown Atlanta by smearing zombie guts all over to mask their odor comes about because they went back in to find a gun store and stock up on ammo. There is even a bit of dialog after the fact where someone says something like “we have enough ammo to teach people to shoot now.” If I recall, Glenn is actually pushing a whole shopping cart full of guns and ammo through the town. I
Changing that scene to be in a department store had no immediate benefit, and opened up the questions about where the hell the bullets came from. Seems to me like sometimes they made changes just for the sake of making changes.
