Did the character and the look come from the comic? I can see how this wouldn't be given a second thought in comic form.

Wonder if they will use Daryl in place of Dale for the Hunters story arc? Rumors are swirling around that next weeks episode is going to get really controversial.

T-Dog returns, announces that he is gay and planning to play in the NFL.

Every time I see her I think of the "Chicks with Guns" scene from Jackie Brown. I keep expecting her to say "Nothing comes between me and my (insert gun name)".

Same here. She's hot, but looks incredibly out of place.

Actually, what would have happened if crazy Morgan decided to call out to Rick while he was under the bed? Walkie-talkies going off and making sounds while the person is trying to hide is the lamest of lame cliches.

Pretty much all I have to say has already been covered.

Wondered if the choked out guy was dead.

How does a barely conscious the day before, Rick, overpower a larger guy?

Chandler Riggs' acting was particularly bad when he mentioned he'd rather drink Judith's formula.

The 'I'm smarter than you' guy managed to be smart enough to destroy the fuel tank in the truck. No one thought to capture any fuel in the jugs they were carrying (or the larger one you could see in the back of the truck), before it all drained onto the ground. Also, his infuriating single call of 'hey!' when the walkers were pouring out of the field.

The good part, I thought, was Michonne in the room with the mummified bodies of the family. Pretty creepy, and disturbing.

Oh, and the new hot chick was (well, looked) good, too.

I liked ogling the latina Lara Croft but her wardrobe is ridiculously impractical.

Poor Rosalita would have been raped to death long ago if she wore that outfit in an actual apocalypse. Especially one surrounded by Georgia rednecks.

I'd imagine that with the ratings they currently have, AMC would rather keep Daryl around.

I know it's been debated (not sure why) but the guy on the floor in the bedroom was asleep (ie choked out) and the guy in the bathroom was killed by Rick and became the zombie attacker. / issue

Re: The Walking Dead -- "Claimed" -- 2/23/14

Why is Abraham following this weirdo Eugene and why does Eugene have a mullet? Comic spoiler below, if I am recalling it correctly

Spoiler:
I believe Abraham is following Eugene because it has become his mission, I believe he feels he is to blame for his family getting raped/killed after he left them alone with friends/neighbors, he killed all of them in revenge and then Eugene came along and took his mind off it and had him focus on this mission to get him to DC, what else was he supposed to be doing in this world.

I believe Eugene says in the comics that since he was just a school teacher, and not very tough or an asset in any way that he grew the mullet to change his appearance and look tougher after the shit went down. He's got a high IQ just not quite govt. scientist level smart

Yes, I'm sure this will all be explained, and will probably make sense from the Eugene/Abraham perspective. My real problem is with Glen/Tara just shrugging it all off when hit with this. Well, that and assuming what he said is true the obvious problem raised in this thread of keeping mankind-saving information in the mind of a single, extremely vulnerable individual.
I thought for a second that they would actually kill Eugene, and whoops, there goes humanity's last hope. They did the same thing in WWZ when the scientist was shot at the beginning.

I haven't enjoyed Glenn's character this season. I realize that he's been through a lot of trauma, but to just start attacking Abraham for no good reason? I would be so thankful to run across someone like Abraham in this world.

The whole pink room with the weird painting didn't make sense to me. Did the family commit suicide or what?

Yeah, I thought it was pretty clear.

But Glenn wants to find Maggie, and Abraham was going in the opposite direction.

Why didn't they turn then? Perhaps the answer was there and I missed it.

I think the one in the chair is the one that killed all of them. It looked like they were shot in the head when in bed, or something like that. And the one in the chair was the last one, of course, you can see the hole in his head, from the back, in that scene.

shot through the head. looks like the parent killed the kids in bed (blood on the pillows) and behind the adult in the chair, there were brains splattered on the wall, with a giant hole in the head of that person.

Re: The Walking Dead -- "Claimed" -- 2/23/14

I pointed out the weirdness of a chain lock for an interior door when watching the episode. Usually on older bathrooms, you'd use a bolt instead of a chain. About the same amount of effort to install unless there molding around the door frame is funky.

The chocked out guy at the foot of the bed was dumb. "I'm going to fight and choke out a guy and then take a nap. I hope he doesnt wake up and start beating me up or shoot me in retaliation."

Thought the same thing. And she appears just moments after (before?) the gang mentions running a train on the woman whose shirt they find in the house.

Not much new to add as I agree with most here about how awful Chandler Riggs is, how annoying Glenn has become, and how absurd the entire Eugene episode was, from the disabling of the truck to his stupidly cryptic demeanor.

And another nitpick: Rick looks sufficiently filthy, exactly how you'd expect a survivor of the apocalypse to look (see: The Road), but everyone else looks freshly bathed and shaven with freshly laundered clothes (or in Rosalita's case, cheap "sexy" Halloween costumes).

Yeah, it took me a second to figure out what happened there too and that's what it seemed like. That scene went by a little too quickly (for good reason, I imagine).

Re: The Walking Dead -- "Claimed" -- 2/23/14

So 3/2/2014's episode (titled "Still") will revolve around

Spoiler:
Darryl and Beth


And the 3/9/2014 episode is titled

Spoiler:
"Alone"


and

Spoiler:
Norman Reedus in on next week's Talking Dead


Could this show finally grow some serious balls?
