    I think she had had enough of the prison and what was happening. I think her being banished was a relief.

    Agreed. She was probably shocked by his decision but I sure as hell wouldn't want to go back to that disease infested prison!


    Another strange thing I found about this infestation. Hershel and others called it a "flu" (sure, what else are you going to call it?). It's clearly viral in nature...yet he thinks pumping everyone full of antibiotics is going to cure it. :fp: Sure, it'll help ward off additional infection but for it to cure this disease? C'mon. :fp:
    They would be important to have, but stocking up on antiviral meds would be more practical for this disease.

    That's why you grab everything! That's zombie apocolypse 101! :lol:

    And the tomatos. Really? Who grew that garden? Did the people in the houses just recently die or leave? Tomatos don't come up on their own. It is not a perennial plant. And when Darrell and crew were driving back to the prison they drove by a cultivated field. Really? Who is farming that field?

    Tomatoes do come up on their own. You let enough tomatoes rot and fall of the plant, or toss them in a compost pile it is not unheard of that a tomato plant pops up next year, if you dont till the soil.

    I think Lizzie is going to try and find Carol and run away. I don't see the prison situation lasting much longer anyways. Carol is just the first to hit the road again.

    he's not looking to cure it. he's looking to stop the symptoms of it, which is what he explained is actually killing people.

    Still...antibiotics while helpful in some cases would and should do very little.
    Either way...I've enjoyed this season thus far.
    Things are about to get crazy! :D

    Thanks for the tomato education. I guess I just always saw my dad plant the tomato plants and assumed. And I've seen some things come up "volunteer" but not tomatoes.

    I thought both of the Talking Dead guests were very good. Or maybe they just looked really good after last week's debacle. On last night's show Hardwick made a funny reference to last week's show. He said something like "I didn't know that Bob from Chattanooga" was going to be a guest. If you remember Bob from Chattanooga was the crazy caller from last season. Of course, Hardwick was referring to Marilyn Manson when he said that.

    yeah, he made a couple references to Manson. Right at the beginning he said something about "nice to have lucid guests". :lol:

    Yea, seemed Carol was surprised but she didn't put up much of a fight. She was ready for the split. She was like "Here, my dead abusive mofo of a husband gave me this, you can have it...".

    I'm on the fence. At first I thought he should have brought her back to the prison and had a vote. But then after thinking about it, Balls up for Rick. He was like nope, you aren't going to be around my kids....well there ya go. Rick isn't just a farmer anymore!

    Daryl might be pissed, but well, Michone is all up on him now. And she's pretty frickin cool.
    Thank you fellow 10 clubber for saving my ass....again!!!

    Maggie is awesome but I'd take her sister over her (and I'm a huge brunette fan!) Maggie's underbite and bigger butt doesn't hold up to blondie! :lol:
    Hell, it's the zombie apocalypse...Carol would probably look good after a while!!!! :lol::lol::lol:

    Jesus you guys are bad.....The men are pretty slim pickins. Last year without hesitation I would have said Daryl but this new Pixie haircut they gave him is a big turnoff. Shane was always a dick so never him. The only hot guy they had really was that dude they shot in the bar...Micheal Raymond James. Now him, yummy :D Too bad they had him on for like 3 minutes.

    Pissed that Carol is gone....but is she? Will they mee t up again with her somewhere?

    Darryls gonna be mad that Rick left his piece O' Ass out in Zombie land without him tapping it.
    And now it just so happens that Michonne is giving Darryl the 'eye'?

    Total crap.
    And so you see, I have come to doubt
    All that I once held as true
    I stand alone without beliefs
    The only truth I know is you.

    what's everyone's hang up with carol?

    i never minded her in the previous seasons, but now that she is getting more lines and camera time, she is kind of a mediocre character in my opinion.

    she is part of the "original" crew, so i can see the attachment. but out of the current cast, i'd prefer to see her go out of pretty much anyone else.

    And why was Bob taking a bottle of booze such a terrible offense? There are so few enjoyable things left in that horrible world. Taking a drink shouldn't be seen as a crime. I mean, I see how it could potentially be dangerous (kinda hard to fight off a zombie horde when you are hammered) but so could just about everything.

    it's that by doing so he was taking an unnecessary risk, a risk that got Zack killed, a risk that could have ended badly when the walkers were trying to get his bag. he is clearly choosing booze over safety of the group, and that doesn't (nor should it) go over well.

    Maggie is way hotter. She's got an actual woman's body; curves are sexy. Big butt? seriously? she doesn't have a big butt whatsoever! she's just filled out the way a woman is natually meant to be.

    Beth is just a stick. BORING.

    This. I keep waiting for some major plot development. The flu thing isn't doing it for me.

    Side note: They have probably collectively killed all the zombies within a huge radius of the prison. How do these supposedly brain dead zombies keep ending up at the gate of a prison that looks to be in the middle of a forest? At this point you would think that they would have killed all the zombies in the area.

    I don't know...Maybe I'm too critical, but this show's writing has really gone downhill the last few seasons.

    I guess it depends how far from a city they are. Zombies are walking 24/7 they will stumble upon a stationary target eventually. Have to think millions of zombies and less than 100 a week walking into you isnt that hard to believe.

    Yep. Tyrese needs to realize the bigger picture. Everyone has lost someone. Needs to chill the fuck out.
