Great premiere, actually felt bad for Lori which I thought was impossible.

I enjoyed it. It seems like a period of time has gone by apparently. I enjoyed the prison sequence. I think that could be a perfect place to hold up, but I don't get why you'd go inside that prison but not thoroughly explore the thing during the day as much as possible.

I liked the sword girl. She just don't care and slices and dices. I don't see why you'd want to have these slave zombies since they could still potentially turn you into a zombie.

Finally, they have 3 vehicles. Why not just go back to a big city and hold up there like before. You could easily find whatever you need and start a garden on the roof of a building.

The season premiere still has the same flaws as the second season which is trying to evolve the story. With the exception Hershel having his leg hacked off, the full hour was just again cleaning out zombies from one area. Even Spartacus had more going on in terms of plot and not just having a high body count

It was alright. It doesn't leave me excited for the remainder of the season like the season 2 premiere did.

I thought part of the ending was predictable (
Spoiler: show
someone getting bitten
), the other part was a total surprise.

I also do not like how Winter is completely skipped in the story.

They should not even bother with dialogue on this show. The cold open was probably the best scene of the series because nobody spoke.

This.

Also, Carl is finally a total badass! With that, Shane's deadness and

Spoiler: show
Lori dying at the end of the season if they stay true to the book


this series is at last realizing its potential.

Yep. It's actually painful to watch. But the actors can't even elevate it. There's something monotonous about it all. Everyone talks with the same voice, everyone reacts the same way.

Also they didn't have to make up for the lack of zombie kills in Season 2 by offing half the world's population in the premiere.

All that aside, I still liked it. :| It's a zombie series after all. I take what I get.

Hershel growing his hair and a beard were dead giveaways that he was biting it soon.

Phenomenal episode. One of the best of the series.

I thought that moment when he just cracked that dudes skull was shocking and just damn. Looks like the sheriff is losing it. Idk. I missed why that one woman was cutting that zombie's stomach. At first, I thought she wanted her dress.

He's still alive, and pulled through in last night's episode.

That was the best moment, for me. Rick isn't losing it though, he's just protecting his group by any means necessary. The latino prisoner was a shady dude anyhow. Rick and Darryl obviously picked up on that.

not BAMF but more in line with a douchebag. None of the characters are likeable except for Dale who was killed off. Is it that way in the comic book?

uh..yeah, you mean like when he chased the other black guy outside and locked him out. That guy didnt deserve to die. Rick apparantly didnt learn his lesson when he tried to kill that one teen but Carl walked in on him. Actually the blame would be the writers who forgot that chracters evolve

If you will remember, Rick and Lori had a conversation about clearing the cell block for those prisoners. About possibly having to kill them, and Lori told Rick "whatever you think is necessary to protect our group". She also said something about wanting him to have a clear conscience.

Rick hasn't lost his mind, he knew what he was doing.

In the show, Dale was an arrogant, know-it-all, asshole that thought his shit didn't stink. It was a great moment when he got killed, I hated him -- I cheered during that scene.

In the comic, he's actually still alive at this point.

Umm... what? Douchebag? Tomas tried to KILL him. TWICE.

I don't think you know what you're talking about? Characters evolving? HUH? Rick HAS evolved. From a guy that couldn't make decision, and couldn't be cut throat, to a BAMF that will do anything to protect his group.

Far and away one of the best episodes. Rick killing the prisoner is probably the series' most shocking moment so far, rivaled only by Dale's death and maybe that first season zombie massacre.

I honestly thought the show basically found a new Shane to partner with Rick. Someone that could help him, but was really trying to kill him. Didn't imagine they'd be ballsy enough to do what they did.

I can't believe he died. Somebody fucked up to let all those zombies out. They had that place secure. Did that Carol lady survive. I missed what happened to her.

The prisoner that Rick "fed" to the zombies 2 episodes ago was the one that caused all the chaos.

As for Carol, I can't remember honestly. Darryl picked up a piece of her clothing inside the jail, but I can't recall if she made it out. The last 10 mins was so crazy, I wasn't paying attention.
