The Walking Dead Season 3 tonight! (NO SPOILERS ALLOWED!!!)

She's using the walkers in a similar fashion to the way Rick and Glen covered themselves with the walker guts.

What's interesting to me, judging from the few seconds we see M and the zombie pets, is that eventhough they have no arms or jaws, they aren't trying to maim/eat Michonne (or Andrea, for that matter). Seems like M has figured out a way to 'calm' them, or something...

I've been wondering about something. Can someone who has read the comics tell us if Hershel survived the farm? I truly believed Hershel was going to go down with the farm, so to speak. I thought the only way he was leaving the farm was in a box. It surprised me to see the writers keeping him around to season 3.

Did he wind up leaving the farm in the comic? If don't think this is a spoiler, but you may want to post it in ninja to avoid the wrath of Jumbo

Yes, he leaves the farm like everyone else.

The thing I immediately thought of was maybe she gauged their eyes out as well. Maybe they don't attack her because they can't see her.

On another note, the writers explained in Talking Dead, that they originally wrote the script having Herschel die. After deliberation, they wanted to keep him alive. I'm glad they did - he's turning into a badass!

I don't think it's so much that Michonne has a way to "calm" them or to "control" them. I think she simply cut off their lower jaws and arms, and after much travel and many futile attempts at trying to gnaw into Michonne, the zombies just sort of follow along with her seeing as they're chained. Maybe they're holding out hope that somehow they'll be able to get a piece of her....but i think they're sort of just captives and have no choice but to walk along serving their purpose of keeping other walkers away.

I've enjoyed seeing his transition. Ever since that moment at the bar it's like the light finally clicked in his head.

My biggest problem with him staying at the farm is that I don't think he would have given up any chance to continue protecting his daughters.

didn't the writers say they had originally scripted Randall to escape and kill Herschel and then they changed their minds? That would have been interesting..

In the talking dead post scrip talk show, the execuitive producers were saying the hershel character was supposed to die instead of Dale a few episodes ago. Then was going to die on the farm in the season finale. He said he even told the actor who plays hershel that "tomorrow you die"... Then when the writters were trying to put together his death scene the producers weren't comfortable with it.
Said, it seemed "gratuitous". They decided they liked the character, and liked the actor and so he got to live into season three..... That talking dead show postscrip is almost as good as the actual show.

Just say this on TheChive.com and thought I would share.

The show has kind of turned a corner with the introduction of Michonne. Up until now all the characters have been searching for a way to survive, and basically disparing that they don't really have much of a chance. Michonne represents the first character who has really figured survival out.

Pick6, if I ever come into $10+ million, that is going to be one of my first purchases.

Haven't read the comics so please no spoilers about this, but I am interested to see if they find anyone else at the prison. I can't imagine nobody else thought to hold up there. Have they never seen Resident Evil???

I'm hoping for Merle or Morgan.

They also mentioned 'Dwayne' on the Talking Dead. Who is that??
