If you have read the books... this is kind of sort of the tip of the iceberg. I mean there are many more big time characters that haven't even been introduced. So it seems HUGE (which it is), but in the grand scheme of things it is just a big moment among other big moments if that makes sense. Awesome show.

I wouldn't read them until after the show. The show deviates from the book. Like tonight. What went down in the show tonight did go down in the books, but not exactly like that. And I know things that are going to happen in the show at some point which are huge things that have to take place in the show which kind of ruins the excitement, but I have no idea exactly what episode it is going to go down in... I hope that makes sense. The books are great but they are plain old comics. So if you want to get into them you will have to face being a comic nerd. I am and always have been a comic nerd so I don't care.

The books are ongoing if I am not mistaken. The show could go on into perpetuity if it is well written and creative (which it seems to be).

The theories about the show are great because they are different from the books. Like the whole "why?" question below is being discussed and it goes back to what the guy at the CDC whispered to Rick in season one. That is a part of the show that is unique. Totally awesome.

It's a surprise Shane even lasted this long to be honest. Until about a month ago when I heard who they cast as the Governor I was surprised, because they set up in the 1st season that Merle Dixon could fill that role, with the whole one arm cut off, and crazy person in general. I know his name isn't the same character wise, but it would have been crazy to see them put his character out there so early.

Apparently a change in the creative pieces lead to some changes http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/walking-dead-what-happened-fired-221449

 

My concern is that they've killed off too many major characters too quickly and will work to introduce new ones just as fast.  That being said, it was getting stale for a few weeks and I'm glad it's moving again.

I think Michonne could work if they changed her up in a way similar to how they changed up Andrea.  Make her a little less badass combat-wise and maybe not have the "escorts" when they first meet her.  Beyond that I think she'd be a good addition.  Especially if we're going to get the governor.

I didn't give Hell on Wheels much of a chance, but from what I saw he could pull off the Governor pretty well. This role is well beneath him, but I think Jeffrey Dean Morgan would fit that role perfectly.

I hope they introduce Michonne into they fray, or at the very least, T-Dawg turns into Tyreese. If they can't do that, then bring back Morgan, and have him substitute for Tyreese.

 

Dale dying was understandable in the sense that it symbolized the death of their humanity, but shit. he plays such an important role in the comics, that I can't help but thinking it's a mistake.

Also, just as an aside, they had better fix Andrea's character, because she is a legitimate badass, who deserves to be playing alongside the big boys.

If great minds think alike, I must admit I am very pensive as to: a.) Did the dreams represent a transformation that is, at this point, inexplicable? And b.) How is that transformation possible?!

[EDIT: Apparently I needed to do some further reading. However, I haven't read the comics and I'm definitely not looking for spoilers. But does this mean that CDC dude told Rick in season one it was airborne? Is the life of a walker an inevitability that weakens the significance of the attacks in the first place? Can ONLY the dead contract the virus and reanimate? Some of these questions seem to have transparent answers, but I just feel like I'm missing something...]

The Announcement, I figure i'll catch the re-run at 11. (Waking up for work is going to KILL me) a friend of mine has been telling me it's really good, and I just started watching a few weeks ago. I've lost interest because of the lack of action, I have a feeling this episode changes that?

I remember reading last year that the storyline was going to vastly differ from the comic books, but now I can't find the source.

Either way, this was as good an episode as the series has had yet.

Great episode tonight.  I never read the comics but I was still a little confused at the end...'

***SPOILERS ahead just in case anyone hasn't seen tonight's episode yet:***

So apparently the virus is airborn?  Some folks guessed that at the end of season one, Jenner whispered to Rick at the CDC that everyone in the world is infected, so that when you die, whenever that happens, you automatically become a walker even if you're not bitten.  Case in point, Randall and Shane were not bitten but became walkers after dying.  I guess the only difference is, you reanimate as a walker after dying very quickly but if you get bitten, it takes several hours to reanimate. 

Notice how Rick didn't leave after killing Shane.  Was he waiting for him to turn into a walker to kill him again?

Just a guess.  I might be way off.  But next week's episode looks good.

Your theory of an airborn virus is correct. No matter how people die they will re-animate and become walkers.

Ahhhh, O.K.  But as of right now, Rick is the only one who knows that.  And that makes me wonder how last week's episode ended after Darryl shot Dale to put him out of his misery.  That must mean Dale became a walker and they had to shoot him again.  The entire group is standing around him when that happened.  You'd think they would have noticed.

Well it looked like Darryl shot Dale in the head, before he would have had a chance to reanimate. Dale was still alive and the group was putting him out of his misery, so to speak.

Nope because if you die and your brain is massively damaged (like by being shot in the head or something ) you can't reanimate as the virus takes over the brain this is why to put out a walker you have to aim to the brain, as Dale died by a shot in the head he couldn't reanimate.

 

(SPOILER, do not keep reading if you don't want to know this yet)

 

As a matter of fact a walker's bite doesn't infect them with the virus, they just are lethal and kill you, once you're dead, then is when the magic happens, and Jenner at the CDC told them, that it takes from 3 minutes to 8 hours to reanimate.

I thought that Shane was bitten by the walker that was lurking around the guy with the broken neck who attacked Merle and Carl. Maybe that was just a fooler detail.

Kill him THREE times? Shit, maybe. Either way, you have to slay a walker, which leads to some straight-up gruesome deaths. I'm ok with that.

I don't think he knew at the time that the virus had gone airborne. I think he stuck around because he was emotionally spent and distraught at having killed his longtime friend.
