Generally speaking, we need a good zombie baby in this story.... btw

did anybody notice those dogs feeding on that zombie? Someone posted an article on the old board about nature feeding on the zombies and that cutting down on the undead population drastically...

Oh Carol <sigh>

I think if Carol had shown some remorse, things might have gone differently with Rick. It's hard to fault her for trying to be strong under the circumstances they are all in, but there's a definite contrast to Hershel who is trying to give the sick every possible chance and Carol playing "angel of death". I do have mixed feelings because I don't think she intended to do anything immoral, but the fact she didn't even flinch when Rick confronted her showed a coldness that she needs to deal with. Should she have been allowed to deal with it amongst friends - that's certainly debatable.

All that being said I still like Carol a heck of a lot more than Andrea. LOL Andrea may be dead but she made me put my head in my hands soooo many times.

I was a little worried that they'd
have the baby be a zombie--remember, she threw up gross red stuff on Beth? Wouldn't that be a kicker--they go into the 'safe' ward, and everyone there is zombies? I have an evil, evil imagination
Me too (evil imagination) and I couldnt stand Ricks silly wife...I kinda hoped the baby would go zombie before she had her...and mebee eat her way out! :D

A lot of people felt total disgust for Lori. I never did, but I know I was in the minority on that.

I also wished Shane had come to a better end, but the dude truly brought it on himself. I guess that's part of what makes this show good. Most of the main characters have both good and bad qualities.

Oh yes, I DESPISED Andrea, from her very first scene. She couldn't die soon enough for me! She was a much better, stronger character in the graphic novels.

I liked Lori, too. ANd I absolutely agree about why the show is good--they are like real people, on the whole--neither angels nor devils. My family has passed many a dinnertime debating the moral and ethical dilemmas in the show, and they're rarely easy. I love that.

Other then the girl in the first show, and Carol's daughter, there really haven't been a lot of kids.

Practically, I think that's because kids are a PIA to work with, from a logistical standpoint. That's a big reason why I think
Baby Judith has to go
. From a story standpoint, maybe it's because kids are small, easy to catch, and easy to consume to the point that they can't come back.

*urk* I just grossed myself out
