Well in a zombie apocalypse, her options are a bit limited.

That is actually a part of the comic, and why I wish they would have shown shots of the "first winter". They learn how to properly melee, be quieter, make shots count, and so on. Since they don't have to worry about them moving as quick if at all, made things a bit easier.

Overall I am happy with the skipping ahead, but I do wish they had a "montage" or something of them running around in winter from place to place.

I don't know if its intentional but the deterioration of the zombies is a big plus to me. It shows that the whole dead rising thing has some obedience to science. I still hate that the dead can see with their eyes, whereas if we went by jenner's video notes the eyes shouldn't be usable due to the inactivity in that part of the brain-- we'll at least ventral system (ability to perceive objects) as the dorsal part (ability to perceive where you are) is partially active.

Exactly Chob.

iobane, from the "field science" of the show + comics, these zombies seem to be relying mostly on hearing and smell, and the sight is more... nature? They aren't really seeing clearly obviously. Their eyes are ruined. Shapes moving though? I dunno.

[iobane]

No, it's clear in the beginning they were using their eyes, eyeballs moving and adjusting etc. But that has changed this season, this pleases me.

It's subtle but they are trying to convey a false hope that eventually the walkers won't be able to survive for a long period of time so if you can outlast them you may see a day without them being so numerous. Also what's with hersch's other daughter robbing the cradle.

yeah that seemed kinda odd

I thought that chick had to be at least 5 years older then the kid.. at least

Again I was combining the show and the comics into one "Walking Dead" group. Yes this is something new to the show, they are finally catching up.

Can't wait for this sunday's ep.

If you guys are really interested in the walking dead my wife will be reviewing all the walking dead episodes on her website www.wearpinkwednesdays.com
Sorry about the shameless plug.

[Tuddle]

I'm going to tell her to sign up for the forum so she can chat the walking dead. If you guys want to talk to her on your podcast let me know she just said she would love to talk walking dead. She's on twitter. @KristinLFowler

Honesty for comic related news I usually check her site first and that Daily Blam site and that's usually it.

Shark needs to give you a weekend show man. Especially now with TWD in full swing. The Tuddle show...it has to come back.

[iobane]

We agree to these terms only if other Kristin follows suit.

Chob shall agree with me.

[Chob]

Indeed I do.
