Well that explains it. :) Seriously after the farm wouldn't you make a plan?

If memory serves, they all go back to the farm after the fall of the prison. That won't happen in the show because the family that owned the land they filmed on said they wouldn't allow them to return. Too many people trespassing, stealing things, and a fan was injured on the property.

That would make sense to go back there, you would just think they would name a specific place.

Do people still show up there? That crap would get extremely annoying.

I can't speak for this show, but I've read all the game of throne books, and even though I know what is gonna happen it hasn't ruined the show at all.

I guess seeing it unfold on tv is probably kind of cool after you've read it. I'm glad I haven't read the comics, I like being surprised. Most movies that I read the book first usually fall a little short of the book for me. Just personal preference I guess.

They farm storyline in the comics ended quietly compared to the show. Herschel basically just ran them off (and Glenn stayed with Maggie). Then after they found the prison, Rick went back and invited Herschel and his family to join them at the prison. Herschel agreed because the farm was slowly getting over run. It wasn't a heard that forced them off.

Anyway... Kudos to Coug for calling Glen at the prison. Also to those that called Judith with Tyrese and meeting up with Carol.

I've only read up to the conclusion of the prison story line and they changed just enough to keep it surprising. They actually made the Shane storyline better.

I'm disappointed with the portrayal of Bob too, though he was a minor character in the comic and nowhere near the level of disappointment compared to the Governor.

I know some was disappointed with the Governor but the show would have had to air on HBO or Showtime to get away with half the stuff the governor did in the comics!

OT: AMC picked up another of my favorite comic series called Preacher (Im the proud owner of a couple pages of orginal art). Its bitter sweet news because I trust AMC but they will have tone down a loooooooot to make it cable/mainstream audience friendly.

For those of you interested in more mature themed graphic novels I highly reccomend it.

Who was Beth writing to in the beginning of the episode? She was narrating writing in a journal while she and Daryl ran through the woods.

We're supposed to assume that it was Lizzie dissecting and feeding rats to the zombies through the fence because she killed a couple bunnies? Just not buying that theory.

Was Ty's arm cut back at the prison or did the Mika cut it with something just then while he was holding Judith? Did I miss him getting injured?

Beth was just journaling to herself. Presumably reading pages from when they first settled into the prison.

Not sure when Ty cut his arm but he was bandaging it up in the woods before Mika touched him.

I think a lot of the disappointment was the fact he looked nothing like the Governor from the comics. Instead of a part Caucasian/part Latino guy with long black hair, we get a relatively normal looking white guy. I don't think it's as much because they had to censor him.

Which is why I'm a tad disappointed they changed Bob. In the comics he's an old alcoholic white guy.

If they stick to main theme of the book and do the Grail right it will be epic. I pray they dont turn Cassidy into one of those trendy pretty vampires.

She's a girl they have to write down their thoughts. :)

I'm not buying Lizzie being the rat person either. Iirc it was a grown ups hand they showed in a preview at the fence. The other one they found looked liked someone was studying something the way it was laid out. Of course I'm swinging and missing recently on my theories. :)

Didn't Mika say sorry to him when he was wrapping it up? Maybe when he caught up to them, approached from behind and startled her and she cut him as she spun around?

I do believe it was Lizzie. At one point during this past show the camera lingered upon a log with something near it (it was hard to see, I just thought it was mushrooms or something...but at the time knew it was weird they lingered on the log)

Anyway, you see the perspective change from Darryl/Beth onto Tyrese and the girls and you learn that it was Lizzie that slit the rabbits throat, near that log, quietly as they sat around the fire. The purposefulness of showing her do that, then lingering on the image of the log/dead rabbit, are all intentional to drive the plot and character Lizzie forward.
