I just hope when it comes back in 2012 that the second half of season 2 is of a better calibre than the first.
Shane is a nasty piece of work but next to Daryl, he's one of the most sane people there in a twisted kind of way.

You think it was a bad story line? I think it was one of the best. Example, the Herd, caused she to run and get lost, got every one on his heels. One of the best scenes this year, possible the entire series, don't know if it beats the Atlanta Herd scene though. The dissecation of the zombie, searching for traces of Sophia in his stomach, briliant. The hanged zombie, lol. The Whell, gross. Daryl getting lost got an arrow stuck in his belly and a zombie almost eats his boots, lucky dog that guy is tough. The barn shootout. And when they found her, one of the saddest moment ever. It all happened while searching for Sophia and you still say it was a **** story line?sigpic

I can see why the Sophia story line may have dragged for some people. It was used as a plot tool to keep them at the farm for an extended period of time. However I think the conclusion of last night's episode more than made up for it. It was absolutely epic (sad, shocking and amazing all at the same time).
I'm curious though, does this mean Hershel and his crew knew Sophia was in the barn the whole time?sigpic

Yes i liked the highway scene, it was tense, Yes i liked the climax at the barn, yes i Liked Shane going to the dark side. Unfortunately 99% of the content in between these moments was as boring as watching paint dry if not more so.
If Sophia's storyline had been wrapped up in say three episodes, four max i would have enjoyed it far more, but 7 episodes, it's stupid. It's what i like to call 'LOST' syndrome (and we all know how that was stretched out at points).
Magictrick has hit the nail on the head, it was used as a plot device to keep them anchored at the farm, and thereby cutting cost for filming by centering the majority of the drama in the farmhouse or surrounding fields and woods.
I enjoy the drama, it's great, it gets you invested in a show, unfortunately there is a way to do it better than other ways. TWD has sunk so far into slow..plodding soap opera territory that after this climax I'm still wondering if they can pull things together when it returns in 2012.
I like the ingredients for the show but i think that they need to re-evaluate the recipie by condensing the drama and upping the pace and danger abit more.
Just my opinion. Make of it what you will.

Thought this ep was excellent even though had spoiled myself on Sophia's fate last week. I was actually hoping they'd get a victory out of it and find her alive, but what a way to end it.
I do think eps this season have drug in places, but I've been happy with the overall story this first half of the season. I liked the farm setting and the issues it brought up...it being a safe haven and did they have a right to stay there, Herschel's view of the walkers. I thought Lori and her baby issues and Andrea in general as I really don't like her to be the biggest drag on the season, not the Sophia stuff as it produced some good stuff, especially for Daryl.

Perfect mid-season finale and an Emmy-nom worthy performance from the guy that plays Shane. Now I wanna see the aftermath of this like, NOW!sigpic

I feel for Hersal and his family of Zombies in the barn. It is horrible. But with Ricks group re acting to seeing Sophia..a little girl that they care about, hearing her mom screaming her name, then watching Rick put a bullet in her head, I think will show Hersal that you have to think AND remember that everyone is a six degree of seperation in this Sh*tty time.
Ricks group saw that beautiful little girl that they have been going crazy looking for and They KNEW that her being a zombie was a possibilty, but seeing her stumble out broke their hearts. Still they put her out of her zombification and let her reat in piece.Why did you do such a thing, you mediocre dunces?
