So who's the person in the hood with the arm-less zombies chained up behind them?
Also: End of the episode nice to see Rick swing his dick and smack everybody in their mouth. Awesome.

Really glad that Andrea isn't dead also. I thought it was really cool how they showed the prison at the end of the episode.
Rick hasn't completely convinced me that he's not a total pussy, but this was definitely a huge step in the right direction.

I like the last three a lot, I hope they continue going like this in season 3. Sucks my sunday shows are done, no walking dead no doctor who, and no topgear. Come on game of thrones and metalocalypse.

Was there an episode that I missed? Since the only person riding a horse was Rick in season 1 and he wasn't chasing a helicopter but headed into the city looking for his family. And nobody in this episode even saw the helicopter. Oh, and Darryle when he was looking for Sophia that one episode.

On that note:

Spoiler:
Holy crap! That episode was amazing. We lost some extras or single liners but kept a few around to die later. The overrunning of the farm was awesome and I love the fact that if not for the gun shots the herd would have simply moved past the farm.

And finally Rick is becoming the character in the comics! I expected his big speech at the end of the episode to include "We are the Walking Dead!" line but maybe they are saving it. I like that Darryl asked whiney Carol what she wanted to shut her up. I think Darryl is falling into the role of Tyrese from the comics which I'm ok with. Rick's right hand but with potential for explosions.

Michone showing up was awesome! Seeing the prison in the background was great! Overall this is a way to cap a season. Not to hardcore on the cliffhanger (i.e. the only real "cliffhanger" is will Andrea meet back up). I can't wait for season 3. Especially since it's got an extended order for like 17 episodes!

Spoiler sidenote: Anyone watch the talking dead afterward? I thought it as funny that Herschel was suppose to be dead already when he lives quite a while in the comics but that they just couldn't find a good way to do it


Non-spoiler Sidenote:

Anyone else annoyed that they are trying to use the Walking Dead's popularity to boost the show that stole a significant portion of the Walking Deads budget (probably responsible for the slow start to the season)? I know my wife and I rolled our eyes a bit.

I may be remembering wrong but I'm pretty sure Rick sees a helicopter while riding his horse through Atlanta and starts following it before he happens upon the huge horde of zombies near the tank.

No, you are correct. And that was my reference earlier as well




Yea the season ender, was fething great. It was an ocean of walkers, and my only real gripe was I think Hershel bought his shotgun from S-Mart, because that fether NEVER ran out of shells. I need to stop slow poking and go buy me one of them. And agreed, Rick hasnt completely sold me on him being a bad mother, but hes heading in the right direction anyways

My only problem was that Lori seem to get really mad at Rick when he told her what happened. Like, "I'm sorry I didn't let Shane kill me and killed him when he enacted his plan to kill me even though you basically told me a few episodes ago that Shane would probably try to kill me and I better kill him"

It showed him stopping to reload once. So it did run out. One time. Other than that, I think that thing holds about 30+ Shells from the amount of times he has fired it.

I couldn't stop thinking about how they should have won with that shotty. They do show him kinda reload at one point to be fair, but not until he shoots like 20 rounds.

I'm really looking forward to season three now, nice to see that Michonne has finally turned up, though I was a bit...perplexed by the armless zombie evening wear.
Also quite interested to see the Prison events being set up, hoping to see the Govener show in season three.
As for season two, since I missed contributing my two cents here for most of it's latter half , I'll just say that I was very impressed with the final episodes, I had been a bit concerned about the series, especialy since the first few episodes of season two had more padding than an old Bert I Gordon film,but I believe everything wrapped up nicely....for the most part.
Yeah, I was bummed that Dale died, but not surprised...same with Shane ( seeing as his TV self far outlived his comic book self), but overall ...I think the season ended well .
I still have to say that I'm not a big fan of Rick, guy still seems to be a bit of a clod IMO...in fact it wouldn't surprise me if Lori had actually hoped Shane would succeed in offing him .

Michonne showed up in the comics with the zombies at the gates of the prison. So it fits in well with the current events. I agree with the Rick stuff though. I am hoping Season 3 will be when he actually grows a pair and gets stuff done.

Now, how do you think they will do the prison? You think they will find inmates locked up like in the comics? All sorts of shenanigans are going to happen with that place I expect.

The Govenor has already been confirmed for season 3 which is why I wasn't hugely surprised by Michone showing up as she's a big part of that story arc.

Overall really looking forward to seaon 3.

Seriously? The owner of that jail (the governor) is going to be played by Arnold Schwartzneggar? Playing himself as an actual character?!

Loved the ending of the series! Thankfully it is not such a long wait this time for the new one to come (and we have Game of Thrones coming in a couple of weeks in the meantime! )

New season starts in the fall. Luckily we still have the comics to keep us company up until then, I'm really interested in where this new story arc of "a bigger world" is gonna go.


I'm just gonna put a spoiler tag around everything that I think will happen in season 3 because some of it has to do with the comics

Spoiler:

1st off, I wouldn't be surprised if The Governor was running the prison, given the way the last season progressed

Merle is definitely working with the governor, no doubt about it. The walking dead producers all but confirmed that Merle was coming back. I'm looking forward to this!

Rick probably won't get his hand cut off due to the extra CGI that they will then on need for -every- episode. I recall Kirkman saying that he regretted doing that to Rick.
However, I wouldn't be surprised if they still went through with it. Merle- "you took my hand, now I'm gonna take yours".
