Spoiler:take her own life...or die. I think Daryl will help her get through it. I can see a budding romance there....something very non traditional...as I think Carol may be older than him...not sure But I really don't see Carol dying... I think in light of the mid season finale....Carol is probably relieved that it's over.. I think she knew down deep that Sophia was either dead or a walker and it was the not knowing that was killing her. I think now she has closure and can at least work to move on.Originally posted by jelgateThis brings much pain but SQ is right

Originally posted by Steelbox View PostGreat ending. One of the reasons for this show success is that it does what others wouldn't do. What other show had children beign shot in the head? It would be unthinkable outside cable. It captures Kirman's story with maestry.
Still my point is they can't rest on their laurels, while the mid season finale was strong, there have been weak points in season 2, and I think they need to focus on stronger writing. You can't just use edginess to paper over the gaps caused by weak writing. AMC should look to networks like HBO and Showtime, whose shows are even more brutal and unflinching than AMC shows like the Walking Dead, and see how, while they have even stronger content (as they can get away with even more than AMC on those channels) the key thing to shows like Dexter on Showtime, or the Sopranos or Game of Thrones on HBO is strong writing (and strong performances, but I can't criticise the cast of the Walking Dead in that respect, I think they are uniformly excellent).

IMO, there have been very few weak points in this season thus far. But, that is just how I see it. I think the writing has been spectacular really.sigpic

Originally posted by Steelbox View PostAgreed, thats something The Walking Dead will continue to have and will be agravated with Darabont leaving the procution. Unless they double the effort in the writing depertament, the quality will suffer.

Originally posted by The Mighty 6 platoon View PostI disagree, the search for Sophia, while obviously it had a fantastic ending, did not work for many of the preceding episodes. It just felt like the show was going in circles for a while.
I love the show, but I do think the writing could be stronger in places, and to be honest some of the acting as well.IMO always implied.

I really enjoyed the 1rst season - something new and edgy.
I just finished watching what I guess is what they are calling the 2nd season - I cannot believe what IMO a truly heaping pile it was, it is, and will forever be! (well maybe not quite that bad, but it sure felt good to say after finishing it). The time spent on the farm was a joke, the characters interactions became so ridiculous it was almost insulting to watch. It seemed to be shot on High School Film Class budget. It didn't jump a Shark, it jumped a Blue Whale. What a joke.
