I thought it was a great episode, it is clear next week is gonna be a show down between Shane and Rick..... I am not sure I like how Shane's character is being altered to show mental instability. He thinks the blind folded guy will somehow magically find them again even after being blindfolded and probably blind folded again when they take drop him off down the road (miles and miles away). He thinks that the baby is "his" and he was meant to be with Lori. This sudden shift and increase in paranoia and obsession seems forced and disjointed and is forcing a conflict that probably doesn't need to occur yet. All that being said, there was a good mix of zombies, human antagonists, and internal conflict. 4 out of 5 stars!

It was good. The scene with Lori trying to convince Rick that Shane is a real threat was kind of creepy. Although right, I don't think she's all that she seems. There's something deeper going on there.

And JFC how bad was Kevin Smith's comic book store show? I was looking forward to that and it sucked hard.

It was indeed a great episode. I like the transformation occurring in Shane and do not think it is being forced. He has been unhinging over a period of time and he now appears to be crashing. Not an uncommon occurrence for an afflicted mental illness, especially considering the circumstance.

The story is picking up along with the pace. I like the moral dilemmas the group is often confronted with. The guy impaled on the fence, I was somewhat surprised Hershel wanted to leave him there considering his compassionate behavior in earlier episodes, however people often tend to be different from what they appear under duress. I've hated Lori's character from the very beginning. She appears selfish, manipulative and conniving. I predict she will die horrible in the end.

I dont understand the premise of it. Is the show about ripping other nerds off? They are constantly low-balling customers and they seem to get off on it. They made an insulting offer to that guy with the original and authentic Star Wars Light Sabre. What a bunch of cheapskate nerdass pricks.

It is kind of realistic though. Go into a comic store with a book worth $50 and they might offer you $5.

It seemed to me the show was one part Kevin Smith podcast, one part antiques roadshow for nerds, and one part pawn stars. It was just bad.

And what the hell happened to Jay? He looks horrible. I thought he was missing his top row of teeth for most of the show. Must be the heroin.

The show is so full of he-said/she-said bullshit melodrama that it has become a bit ill. I hate a lot of the dialogue and the forced conflict. More zombies, less contrived drama.

You should probably stop watching then. They don't have the budget for more zombies.

Yes there will be a showdown between them like there was in the comic. They have digressed much from the original comic but in the end they will have to follow that part of the story.

It was decent. A little too slow for me tho.

Shane going nuts was inevitable... he had the pressure of protecting the group almost entirely.. then he fell in love (or heat) with his best friends wife... then said friend returns from the dead and the wife kicks him to the curb.. add in he lost everything he knew and loved and trusted, she broke him.


Also the best part I liked was after Rick shot the two guys in the pub and stood over the fat guy and looked up at Glen, I read that look as "ok if I have to Ill kill every motherless son of a !@#$ on the planet to keep my people alive".
