I really dislike Carl.

More so than usual.

That happened to me Peanut. I was in the official TWD FB group when TWD USA was a week ahead TWD UK.

They posted a pic of Zombie Shane the day after the episode aired in the US.

I was NOT impressed Angry

Get thee behind me, highlandermam

I'm not even going to click on that link because something known can never be unknown.

HighlanderMam · 27/02/2014 14:09

I haven't read anything on the spoiler forum, it would take all the fun out of watching!

rallytog1 · 27/02/2014 14:11

Dang it Highlander, wish I had the self control not to click!

PeanutPatty · 27/02/2014 14:20

I will not be clicking. EVER! Grin

People sometimes do it on MN. Not on Telly Addicts usually - we're so well behaved.

I always complain when some dolt posts a title like: 'AIBU to cry buckets when so-and-so died on Downton Abbey last night?' because I usually watch it on iplayer.

The last one was when someone in Chat revealed the end of The Great Gatsby in a title and then got all snotty when people complained because it was a classic novel and you should have read it.

Note the snobbery in 'read the novel', not watched the Robert Redford/Mia Farrow film.

I am probably the only person who didn't know what would happen in 300 btw. Blame it on my lack of a classical education.

CheerfulYank · 27/02/2014 14:45

Ugh about the spoilers. I ALWAYS read spoilers because I'm too emotionally invested and have to prepare myself. :o

MoominsYonisAreScary · 27/02/2014 15:32

I like to read spoilers because I tend to havw my hands over my face other wise squealing there gonna bite him!

SlowlorisIncognito · 27/02/2014 23:02

I think the style of the new army characters is a nod to them being iconic characters from the graphic novel/comic rather than going for true realism. I mean if Judith has managed to survive for this long, I think Rosita can wear shorts, especially as she has a massive truck to ride around in ;). Maybe she had more clothes somewhere else in the truck, and doesn't subscribe to the Rick Grimes "never change your clothes ever" philosophy.

I think whatever Terminus is it will turn out out to be a bad thing. It seems like they are trying to lure people in for some reason. However, it seems far away (on foot), so I don't think we'll see if for a while yet.

I really want Glen and Maggie to reunite soon, though. She seemed to be carving something in the stone in episode 2 to help him find her.

I do think having a lot of fragmented groups means will cause this half of the season to suffer a bit, especially as they are giving Rick and Carl a disproportionate amount of screentime. Need more of Daryl and Beth and Maggie, Sacha and Bob please!

Blondeshavemorefun · 27/02/2014 23:18

Hate spoilers and have learnt never to google anything esp on mn ie dragon butter and space docking to name but two :)

Monroe · 28/02/2014 12:16

I've only just got round to watching. I agree it was really tense but I guess that's part of the reason we love it Smile

I was also doing a lot of shouting at the TV, especially at Lara Croft to put some clothes on, doesn't she know they BITE you???

Both Rick and Tyreese are heading down the tracks to Terminus so hopefully they will be reuintited soon and Rick and Carl will get Judith back. Someone mentioned earlier about Terminus possibly having a religious feel to it. I don't know why but I was thinking the same last night.

I do like Glenn and I'm glad Tara is sticking with him. I even commented to DH "oh look he's still got his riot suit" when I saw it hanging off the back of his backpack.

I liked seeing Michonne opening up. It seems like she's made a conscious decision to stay with them and as such she's allowing herself to be more natural with them and is letting down her defences. That probably makes no sense but it does to me!

Scientist guy (Eugene?) is definitely suspect. I'm sure as he was walking away from the truck he'd just shot up he had a smile on his face like that was his plan. My guess is he used to work at the local petrol station but he's told Rambo and Lara Croft he's a genius scientist guy to get their protection and travel with them that will be totally wrong, he probably is a genius scientist guy

Blondes I remember googling dragon butter, had to wash my eyeballs out with soap. I have since learned my lesson and no matter how tempted I am I will not be googling space docking Grin

BlueFrenchHorn · 28/02/2014 14:43

monroe that was me that said that about terminus having a religious feel to it - it's the way the sign is worded I think words like salvation, makes me feel of a cult perhaps.

BlueFrenchHorn · 28/02/2014 14:44

....what's dragon butter...?

TulipOHare · 28/02/2014 15:02

Yes, if it were me I think I'd be looking for thick denim and leather from the neck down. Although it is Georgia, isn't it, which is unbearable in the summer Confused

The Rosita character is clearly comic-booky. A bit too much so, maybe. She looks immaculate, she's kept up with her depilating even 2 years into a zombie apocalypse Hmm which, as always with these type of shows, takes me out of it a bit. The men look suitably grimy, but the women are all a bit apocalypse-chic, artfully tousled hair, waxed legs and armpits. Ah well, just one of those tropes, I suppose. I still like the show!

Am I alone in not hating Carl? He was irritating in S1-2 but I warmed to him in S3...

NigellasGuest · 28/02/2014 15:22

no, I have warmed to Carl, Tulip

BlueFrenchHorn · 28/02/2014 15:52

I thought everyone knew you should NEVER google you know what....

TulipOHare I'm going to a 50th birthday party tomorrow and am wondering whether to shave my armpits and legs because that's what I used to do for parties.

But then I thought: 'Who cares? It's in a pub. I'll look weird in anything other than jeans and a jumper. I'm not planning to get off with anyone and I'll look quite foxy in my clothes for a middle-aged lady.'

I've also just realised that I hadn't thought of shaving my undercarriage and I'm conducting an experiment into how long I can grow my armpit hair.

In the event of a zombie apocalypse I'd worry about it even less.

I will wear high-heeled boots though. I just hope there isn't a zombie attack between Victoria and Finsbury Park tomorrow night because if there is, I won't be posting here from Sunday.

TulipOHare · 28/02/2014 17:01

I normally go all winter without shaving my legs Grin

Honestly, though. It would be nice, wouldn't it, just now and again, to see the odd hairy leg on TV. I'd be really impressed to see that, because it would be realistic and (unfortunately) it would be quite brave.

I mean, imagine the supply runs.

"OK, everyone. We've done a sweep but there might still be walkers in these houses, so stay frosty. Get in, get the essentials, get out quickly. Any questions?"

"Yes boss, what should we look for?"

"Good question. We don't know what's round the corner so time is of the essence. Just grab the essentials - food, bottled water, clothing, medicines and hair removal products. Is that clear? Let's go!"

Hmm
CheerfulYank · 28/02/2014 20:54

I came out of the closet today as a hardcore Carol/Daryl fan who still cares about Beth.

I think Daryl has an avuncular relationship toward her, and will look out for her out of respect and love for Hershel if nothing else.

somewherewest · 01/03/2014 22:02

I have a nasty feeling that Terminus is a ruse to lure unsuspecting survivors and strip them of their weapons and supplies. You'd think that thought would've crossed Rick & Michonne's minds after the Guvnor, but apparently not.

MunchMunch · 01/03/2014 23:01

I'm not sure what to think about Terminus, would the really do another Woodbury? Hmm

Definitely something up with Weird Scientist Guy though.

I won't click on the spoilers link, I won't click on the spoilers, I won't click on the spoilers link.... Grin
