The Walking Dead Season 3 Premiere

I warn you now. There will be spoilers. Spoilers everywhere!!!!


Yeah, it's The Walking Dead. Finally it comes out. They are finally off the farm and this episode was very good! I really liked it. Though this entry is going to be a sort of rant on the episode. No many gripes but there are a few that are stuck in my brain. Also I will mention I am a big fan of comic which I recommend you go and read as it is very very good. The series is currently on issue 102 at the time of writing this if I remember correctly. And also beware of spoilers for the comic series as well.


1) WHAT HAPPENED DURING THE WINTER!!!!!!

Apparently they made it through the winter. That's great! But also they have been scavenging the whole time, which seems kind of iffy. I can let it go that they made it through, but if they were scavenging for food and constantly on the move as it seems to be implied my suspension of disbelief begins to fall. Throughout the 2nd season they don't really come across much in the way of supplies like food and such. They are mainly getting their food and water from Hershel's farm. When the zombies all attacked they booked it out of there and didn't really take much with them from what I saw. 

So why brush over winter with "We gotz through itz, but now we are needing foodz and suppliez."

I don't know, maybe it is just me, but I would love to know how they got through winter and what all happened during that time. I would watch it fo sho! But I am watching the show anyway

2) YOU SPOILED IT AGAIN!!!!!

So AMC spoiled the ending of season 2 last time when they started their dvd sales saying it was Shane's final episode. Granted, I had read the comics and Shane was long dead by the time they left Hershel's farm, and it was fairly obvious he was going to die at some point. But you weren't sure when or how or where. It was a toss up. But AMC blew it. Shane died and then Carl killed him again.

Anyway, they basically spoiled the future episode right in the first couple seconds of the next episode preview at the end of the show.

Daryl's brother is alive and kicking. Just completely ruined the surprise. Now I did not watch much of any previews or anything to do with the 3rd season save for that they would reach the prison and The Governor would be about. That's all I knew going into it. So the whole reveal they may or may not have planned is ruined. It irks me! Irks me GOOD!!!

 Those were really my only problems. The beginning of the episode when they search the home and they are all sitting in the living room waiting for Carl to open the dog food so they can actually eat and Rick has to stop him is great. No words spoken but everything is conveyed very well.

Also Hershel went from:

To:

 And damn! He looks awesome in a beard!

In closing I have new celebrity crush on Lauren Cohan (Maggie Greene)
