October 14, 201312 yr I was assuming that glasses had the swine flu, same thing that apparently killed the pig. He died from it while trying to cool down his fever in the shower. He turned since everyone turns when they die. With the swine flu going around and now one walker in the prison-- it adds multiple threats. I agree about getting them out of the prison, I'm getting tired of the setting a bit. Maybe someone should have "Peg Leg Santa" (stealing it) check out the pig situation since he was a vet before he became whatever he is. I was glad not to see the Governor, I was really really tired of that storyline even more than the prison. Though he will be back unfortunately I am sure. The walkers falling thru the roof of the store was cool for FX but why hadn't they fallen in the past? They were presumably walking around the roof beforehand. It was good, nothing great. Probably weak in terms of premieres of the show but it's nice to have it back. I say 6/10.
October 14, 201312 yr It was a decent premiere. A little slow compared to the previous seasons but not bad. From the look of the both the trailer for season 4 and last night's preview, it looks like it should be an intense season and the disease factor will be a great new threat. And thank fucking god that Maggie isn't preggers.
October 14, 201312 yr The minute I saw that they had a sick pig, my immediate thought was disease vectors. Pig to human (and vice-versa) is a very common jump.
October 14, 201312 yr I watched it late at 3:00 AM last night. My thoughts... Slow start to the season, but necessary because of the way they ended season 3. Something had to happen with all of those people. I'm not a fan of the prison, and I'm really really not a fan of it being all civilized the way it is. As Admin said though, I don't like the gov'na storyline either, so I hope that fate doesn't go anymore than 3-4 episodes before it's done. And I hope that storyline takes the prison with it. I also don't like how some crazed chick walked up to Rick and took her back to her 'camp' and it was a dinky piece of shit. Small aside, how could she have survived this long out in the open, yet prisons and farmouses and campsites and whatnot have continuously given them trouble? Anyways, on the store raid scene... they could've done it a little better with spawning zombies than just having them drop through random holes, but just one massive hole where tons were spawned. But it was a good idea, and I won't knock it. Would be cool to see if Blackie actually got infected from sticking his hand somewhere in that zombie head or something... But I guess Glasses ruins the idea of a ticking time bomb because now we've got an onset infection in the prison. I was hoping that pig would come back as zombie pig, but Zombie glasses was a good idea. Question is... how do they play it? Does his zombie get multiple people while they're sleeping? Does somebody try to help him and they get infected? Does somebody secretly get infected by him? Anyways, that's all to be seen. I'm excited for it. Once again, slow episode but good lead up. Havoc is about to happen in the prison and I hope a lot of those stupid filler characters die and they get the fuck out of that stupid prison, and start being nomadic again (that tends to be the best type of Walking Dead episode). 7/10, and only because it set up for something great. Score is subject to change if nothing cool happens.
October 21, 201312 yr He had just set fire elsewhere which I guess helps that theory but I'm not so sure. Whoever burned them was probably the same person that killed them as well. Trail of blood showing they were murdered and then dragged outside to be burnt.
October 21, 201312 yr The new black guy with the drinking problem. Bob I think? That's who I think did it. But is the same guy who burned the bodies the same guy feeding the walkers rats? I'm betting yes.
October 21, 201312 yr He had just set fire elsewhere which I guess helps that theory but I'm not so sure. Whoever burned them was probably the same person that killed them as well. Trail of blood showing they were murdered and then dragged outside to be burnt. He has just taken back his gun, almost symbolizing his newly-reacquired belief that he's needed. And we all know what happens when Rick takes it upon himself to do anything... And I feel he has the most to lose from this disease. He has a young daughter and son, who he tries to protect above all. Remember why he lost the gun in the first place. I just don't see a random person that hasn't been introduced doing it. I don't see anything of the usual cast doing it either. First off, the only people who I believe are even physically capable of that are Daryl and the Asian guy. Neither of them have the history Rick has of going bananas when s*** gets tough. Perhaps it's that alcoholic black guy they introduced. If it's not Rick, I'm willing to bet it's him. I just don't see any other way.
October 21, 201312 yr I think the Governor is the one feeding the walkers. He's going to return at some point (not a spoiler, just logic) so makes sense.
October 21, 201312 yr Whoever torched the bodies probably isn't the same person that is feeding the walkers. The person feeding the rats is inciting infection of whatever influenza is knocking em out. The person burning bodies is doing the opposite.
October 23, 201312 yr Where are they getting the rats lol. I think you're right that the rats are to topple the fence, but I also think that was stupid of the writers and doesn't actually make sense.
October 28, 201312 yr I don't actually buy that Carol was the one who burned the bodies. Something about that doesn't seem right, like she's covering for someone. Possibly that one girl who's sick now. I don't know.
October 29, 201312 yr Carol doesn't entirely add up. Whoever has the rats is still at large, even if Carol is the killer.
October 29, 201312 yr I'm going with that the creepy girl who couldn't kill her dad killed Karen and David, Carol saw it and felt bad and shit and covered it up by burning the bodies. Rats are probably the other creepy girl.
October 29, 201312 yr I like that theory. Goes well with the Carl "don't name them you dumb little bitch" segment. Carol should kill those two little girls and show them who's boss. But seriously, I find it a bit stupid if a little girl is 1. able to find rats and capture them and 2. able to get out at night without anyone noticing.
