Looks like they are trying to stay close to the comics with these 3. In the comics they came from Houston. So in the apocalypse, it does seem to take some time to get from place to place. You stop for awhile where you can get supplies, may have to go out of your way for safety reasons. Get in groups, groups break up or disintegrate. And fuel and vehicles don't seem to be in large supply (well depending on which way the want the plot to go
)
It's TV. There are quite a few things that aren't congruent. Gas really doesn't stay good that long, how can people who survive this long all of a sudden become inept, there's lots of things. It's a show about zombies and the apocalypse. Either you like it or not. I'm not a big zombie fan, but I like the moral dilemmas they get put into. What's right/wrong (and in who's opinion) in the apocalypse as compared to before, etc.
They seemed to worry about that the 1st season. In Guts, they put on shields and lab coats when they chopped up that one body. I don't know if it has to do with the virus is already in everyone, so that it's when you die you turn, regardless of if you are bitten. If you are bitten, it's more like rabies or something that causes you to die, not necessarily turn. I don't know, but yea, they don't really seem too worried about it now. (or it's just too much bother for the writers to figure out how to protect people from blood splatter - heck everyone would be infected now)
I really liked last night's episode, particularly the Rick in the house and Michonne in the house parts. I'll have to wait to see where they go with the new characters, but the people who've read the comics, are really big on Abraham.
After the cereal part where the prestigious yet defunct GM Saturn young actors nomination committee nearly rolled over in their graves when Carl tried to laugh and appear jovial, the stuff with him & Michonne was good. The bodies in the bedroom was chilling.
Some of the stuff they are doing now is kinda suspenseful. I like how they are doing that, without having a lot of "big" stuff going on.
Yea maybe. But him under the bed was very suspenseful, even knowing he is not gonna die. But as to the clearing rooms, usually they are clearing them for walkers, not so much living people??
He's in love.
Interesting take. I don't think it turns out that way from what I've heard about the character in the comics (although that could be different in the TV show), but hadn't thought of that.
Well Sasha hasn't done too bad. She seems strong and intelligent. I think they could do more with Tyreese. And I'm not sure about Bob. (think he was a white guy in the comics anyway)
That's kinda what I was thinking. I know in the comics there is some group they have trouble with. The Survivors??? I was thinking that might be them??? And the guy on the porch I think is/was in Sons of Anarchy?? I think Jeff Kober per Google.
Did I win Deepster?
Nah, that's Lizzy.
I liked it, just didn't think it was as good as some of the other ones. I liked the trunk thing too. Actually thought, what a good idea. Most zombies aren't gonna be hunting through cars, seems like a good place to hide. Maybe not so comfortable, but fairly safe.
Good point on the growing up, becoming man/woman, of Carl and Beth. I've always thought they might keep her around as a love interest down the road for Carl.....when he's a little older. (maybe one reason they haven't offed her yet??? as many people assumed she wouldn't last long)
I don't know. As a hypothesis, they go mostly by sight and sound (not unlike most human's now), but only smell if it happens to distinguish from other walkers? They aren't nor have they been trackers like dogs following a scent. They pretty much mostly gone by sight or sound. When the walker was in the camper with Andrea, he didn't smell her, only heard her. Besides I don't imagine Daryl and Beth smelled all that "alive" anyway. As Gouconn said they pretty much smell like @ss.
Real age doesn't matter in TV/movies. e.g. Sally Field was Tom Hanks mother in Forrest Gump, plus many others. Besides if you are going by that, Emily is closer in age to Chandler (28 to 14 real life, 18/19 to 14/15 TV life) than she is to Norman Reedus/Daryl (45 to 28 real life, 35-40ish to 18/19 in TV life).
Well, houses are were people lived prior to apocalypse, hence more likely to have walkers around there than in the woods. Although, it really doesn't seem to matter in the Walking Dead series. Lots of walkers roaming in the woods??? Other than larger cities seem to have more, which makes sense.
) a zombie apocalypse the woods would gonna be much safer than places where people (potential walkers) had lived suburbs. e.g. uninhabited island, backwoods, up in the mountains, etc.
