That makes the most sense to me, and I considered that, but I just didn't think it would be that big of a contributor to the show in the long run. I'd accept that as a plot thickener, provided they could do something potent enough with it to have introduced the concept at all. I guess that much will remain to be seen.

Yeah, I think it definitely makes for more of a threat. Before, they could theoretically move to an island with no zombies on it and live out the rest of their lives in peace. Now there's always a threat no matter where they go, one that can never be fully contained. It means humanity needs a cure, they can't simply go into hiding and wait it out until all the zombies rot away.

I'm dying to join in this thread! But can't as I haven't seen season 2 and don't want to see any spoilers.

AAAHHHHHHH....tonight's episode....oh my gawd. No words. I can barely wrap my head around how spectacular it was!

There was lots of yelling and fist pumping when
Spoiler for :
Michonne showed up and saved Andrea...and then the prison scene at the very end...


I'm too excited. And I don't know if y'all watch The Talking Dead, but they revealed that
Spoiler for :
Danai Gurira is going to play Michonne in the next season. Completely psyched.

Spoiler for ...:
Having not read the comics I'm not familiar with Michonne and that part just seemed incredibly cheesy to me. Maybe once I get to know the character, it will seem less so.

Honestly I was mildly disappointed by this episode, I guess mostly because I was really hoping Merle would show up at the end. Also, I'm really getting to the point with Lori where I just want to see her get eaten by zombies.

All of that said, the first half hour was definitely some quality zombie shoot 'em up action and I am certainly looking forward to season 3.

I get that about Michonne. Having read the comics I was jumping up and down screaming when she appeared. She is a bad ass woman.

And speaking of bad asses, how about the Herschel? He was one zombie killing mutha wasn't he? Loved that part.

Lori actually didn't bother me as much in this episode as she usually does. I was however, a little disappointed in T-Dog. I really like his character alot, but wasn't impressed when he decided he was going to flee without regroup with the rest of the gang. Seemed the opposite of the guy who felt bad about leaving Merle locked up on the roof of a building. :/

Definitely agree about Herschel. He was a pretty damn good shot with that shotgun. Going into the episode, the one prediction I made was that he was going to die so I pretty shocked that he made it out alive.

I think both seasons were very good television. I can;t comprehend someone liking season one and not enjoying season 2 at least somewhat. I can't believe i have to wait till fall to view it again. Good thing Mad Men is coming back on.

The second season starts off real slow (imo), but picks end gets very exciting eventually.
