    he wasn't gossiping. he was trying to keep the group on a positive course. he made no bones to shane's face about how he felt about him, and he confronted him face to face about Ottis, so that wasn't gossiping, that was educating the group against a guy he thought was dangerous.

    Something he kept quiet about until Andrea got involved with him, then he decided to bring it out in the open. And by gossiping I don't just mean that, I just mean he walked around and talked to people with his gun over his shoulder all day. Don't get me wrong, I liked him, but I think his problem with Shane mainly stemmed from his feelings for Andrea, and was therefore a personal motivation as opposed to a group thing. He was cool, and I was so sad when he died.

    yeah, I can agree that his initial motivation was to keep his "daughter" away from the bad boy. but I think that was also the same time that he figured out about the Ottis thing. I don't think he kept it to himself until it mattered to him personally, but I could be wrong.

    I hope Andrea goes next. Which means she won't.

    less we foret its a tv show ;):mrgreen:
    I'm gonna pretend you didn't say that ;)
    You forgot your G in forget
    and the T in lest :P

    ya, I know it's a zombie show...they shouldn't be taken toooo seriously...and, I mean...I give SAMCRO the benefit of the doubt when their whole bike gang escapes yet another high speed chase, while criticizing a zombie show for being fake :lol:....but still...it's distracting - takes away from the overall enjoyment when it's things that are that obvious.

    I'm kind of indifferent to Dale's death...I agree that his humanity was valuable to the group...but still..I wasn't totally sympathetic to his character, and his eyebrows creeped me out :lol:...actually, I can't think of a single character on this show that I feel a real sense of attachment to....a show like Sons of Anarchy, I would be crushed if almost ANY character was offed (and would have been by season 2). Just far superior writing, imho...I still look forward to sunday nights, tho.

    To be honest, I'm getting a bit bored with the show now. I was really excited when it started and couldn't wait for the next episode to be on. Now it's a bit 'meh'.... Can't watch it, OK - I'll just record it and watch when I can. Or even just read a synopsis/recap (I'm in the UK - see episodes a week later than US). Shame really.

    i was getting super bored with parts of season two and was hoping season three came out with a bang. it did and hasn't disappointed since.

    but i know where you are coming from, i had the same mentality with last season.

    During Season 1 they had a contest where each week they gave out a code word during the last commercial break of each episode and you went to the official website to put it in. It put you in a drawing each week to win a trip to the set to be a zombie on the show in Season 2. I entered every week but no luck. But apparently 6 people won trips to Georgia and got to be a zombie. I don't care anything about going to Georgia, but going to the set and being made up as a zombie to be on the show would have been the shit.

    I am a pretty big geek and went to DragonCON here in atlanta this year and a lot of the cast was there and did interviews and had panels to interact with the fans which was very cool.

    Before they came on the moderator of the panel mentioned he was an extra and to save everyone time of asking the actors about being an extra he gave them the name of the group that handles the extras for the show in atlanta and said if you want to do it send them your photo etc to see if you can be picked. I'm pretty sure he said the agency that hanles it is

    He said they are pretty particular about whot hey pick. Mostly looking for people with very sharp features, already pale etc.

    Yeah, I don't think they pick too many fatties to be extras. Most of those zombies is super thin!

    I would also imagine that a heavyset person, in the heat of a Georgia summer, covered in layers of makeup, could pose problems. Like say sweating through their makeup. No offense to heavy people, but they tend to sweat a lot more in heat on account of their natural insulation already making them pretty warm.

    So I've deliberately stayed off the boards because I got home late from a tournament with the dogs and just couldn't keep my eyes open Sunday night, and wanted to enjoy the show when I'd be alert enough to appreciate it.

    Just finished it On Demand.

    Holy shit, I didn't see that coming with Dale. He annoyed me, but I felt so bad for him. Those last few moments were among the best on the show yet _ the look on his face when he looked at Rick, and the rest of the group as they watched, so anguished.

    How about Daryl stepping up silently, and "I'm sorry, brother."

    And Dale's eyes.

    Wow.

    yeah, I cringed, but I was a bit relieved when Dale was actually moving his head towards the gun. He knew there was no choice.

    Exactly. He stopped groaning, and just fixed his eyes on Daryl.

    I think, with silently taking the gun from Rick, Daryl just stepped up and proved who can really get the job done.

    Sophia was one thing, she was already a zombie. Still harsh, no doubt.

    But Dale was still human, cognizant of what was going on, and looking him right in the eye as he pulled the trigger.

    Can someone please tell me where I can find a safe, reliable site on the net where I can watch streaming video of tonight's episode?? There are times (like tonight) where I can't catch it on tv and have to search for it online.

    Thanks!
