-Overall thoughts good episode, bad, or meh? Better than last weeks.  I KNEW Carol was alive! I was beginning to wonder why they changed up Merle's character but no he's still a ***

-Carl confessed to Daryl about shooting Lori.  Do you have closure or are you expecting a surprise? I've got closure.  She's dunzo. I think Carol being alone, Carl confessing to the shooting and the bloated zombie belly is enough evidence to end those theories

-What do you think about that whole phone conversation storyline that Rick had with dead people? Honestly, a little disappointed and I'm not quite sure why.  Maybe I was just expecting more emotion or more delusion but it was just feeding into the crazy that brought him back to normal.  Yeah..I don't know it seems like an easy fix 

-When are they going to give that baby a name?! It's kinda bothering me and it's a minor detail! If they name her Lori I will face palm

-So Andrea and the Governor FINALLY boned, what does he want from her? Or is he really just into her? THANK GOD those scenese with them "flirting" was too much, I actually said out loud enough with the foreplay get it over with! OH MY GOD.  He wants something with her.  Maybe he sees her as a threat and he's keeping his enemies closer.  I'm not quite sure..curious to see what you guys think

-What is Merle's deal? Why did he bring them to the Governor? What will happen to Glen and Maggie? Merle=the Governors *** when around him, Merle alone=normal Merle.  I'm not sure why he brought them to Woodbury probably just to torture the location out of them and for what? to kill them.  I just think it's a waste..it's the end of the world--shouldn't you try to keep the human population around? The situation is a double edged sword because now other humans pose a threat but at the same time you're both humans who shouldn't want to give up on humanity and keeping a pseudo civilization around

-Did anyone else SWOON at Daryl hesitanting to open that door because he was afraid to find a walker Carol? Obviously I did and I was relieved when she was human.  I think it would've just broken his heart.  I think they have soft spots for each other. 

-Will Michone's arrival at the camp be welcomed or hostile? Well since Rick just had his reawakening moment he'll be all nice and welcome her in especially since she's carrying the formula.  

-Looking ahead: will the group infiltrate Woodbury or will Merle get to the prison first? Hmmm...well I think the group is going to infiltrate Woodbury.  Now what happens when they get there and most likely get caught I'm not sure--power struggle? War?

-Any other comments or thoughts? I love this show.  I still think having a baby is ridiculous but I'll go with it

Overall it was a good episode but some very predictable stuff happened. I think the whole season is starting to get predictable.

I'm so over the Govenor and what's her face. That storyline just seems like filler.

I think it was obvious from the beginning that the phone conversation was imaginary. I'm glad Rick finally snapped out of it though. At this point, I'm more curios about that baby's name than anything else!

I think they'll be welcoming of Michoon just because she brought formula and she'll provide info about where Glenn and Maggie were taken.

I want to say Rick's group will go after them. I don't think Glenn or Maggie will give up the prison's location before their group will come looking for them.

I can't wait to see Daryl and Carol's real reunion once she's more aware of things!

DH and I finally caught up! I told him he can participate too through me

-Overall thoughts good episode, bad, or meh? DH said it was good, I thought it was ok

-Carl confessed to Daryl about shooting Lori.  Do you have closure or are you expecting a surprise? DH said it's done - carl shot her, the zombie ate her - the end. I am arguing that we never saw Rick gut the zombie to prove it ate Lori, so maybe the blood stain on the floor is from her c/s and carl didn't have it in him to shoot his mom (he faked it). So now - Lori is walkin around as a zombie somewhere.

-What do you think about that whole phone conversation storyline that Rick had with dead people? DH  says "obviously he was so distraught he was hallucinating". I agree - and until I realized they were dead (when Lori got on the phone) I thought it was someone from Woodbury.

-When are they going to give that baby a name?! At first I thought they were going to give her a bunch of names. Too bad Lori didn't discuss these ahead of time with anyone...like who doesn't discuss baby names? Or scout out baby formula/supplies 9 months in advance to prepare...Even if Lori lived - what if she didn't latch properly and BF was out of the question? lol

-So Andrea and the Governor FINALLY boned, what does he want from her? Or is he really just into her? DH thinks he wants to have another kid to make up for his zombie daughter. I just find him crazy and lonely.

-What is Merle's deal? Why did he bring them to the Governor? What will happen to Glen and Maggie? DH says: the governor wanted proof that Daryl was still alive. Now that he's proved it they can look for his brother. He thinks those 2 will be tortured - unless Michone helps the other crew save them 1st!

I think that Glen and Maggie will be fine - but add into the story at Woodbury - where eventually they will all end up...and the governor will steal the baby with no name...

-Did anyone else SWOON at Daryl hesitanting to open that door because he was afraid to finda walker Carol?I skipped a lot of episodes in prior seasons - so didnt realize they like each other. I'm just glad shes not dead.

-Will Michone's arrival at the camp be welcomed or hostile? I think welcomed. DH agrees because of the formula she brought ad her intel that the others were taken.

-Looking ahead: will the group infiltrate Woodbury or will Merle get to the prison first? DH says they'll get to Woodbury 1st. I'll go with that too.

DH would like to know - how? The only predictable part was Lori's death. O and the blonde chick sleeping with the governer. Did you really see Michoon goinig to the prison? Or Glenn and Maggie getting kidnapped? lol these are all DH's words!

-Overall thoughts good episode, bad, or meh? I think it was one of the better ones. It wasn't a huge action show, but it's leading up to a good episode!

-Carl confessed to Daryl about shooting Lori.  Do you have closure or are you expecting a surprise? I'm still holding out to see Lori as a walker! I'll never believe he shot her.

-What do you think about that whole phone conversation storyline that Rick had with dead people? It was interesting that the phone was his way of working through his issues. I thought he'd really be talking to someone, but guess not. I just hope he's worked through his sh*t and gets back to being a leader.

-When are they going to give that baby a name?! I for sure thought they'd give her one once Rick got over his breakdown!

-So Andrea and the Governor FINALLY boned, what does he want from her? Or is he really just into her? I think he has an alternative reason. At first I thought it was to separate her and Michonne, but he still went after her once Michonne left.

-What is Merle's deal? Why did he bring them to the Governor? What will happen to Glen and Maggie? - I think Merle is still crazy like he was in season 1. I think he brought them Governor to make up for not killing Michonne. I'm really hoping that Glen and Maggie live and I think they'll end up being saved by the group. I love them as a couple!

-Did anyone else SWOON at Daryl hesitating to open that door because he was afraid to find a walker Carol? - Yes! He is SUCH a sexy man. First he loves on that little baby and then he is super sweet with Carol.

-Will Michone's arrival at the camp be welcomed or hostile? - I'm hoping welcomed!! She'll know about Glen and Maggie and have information on Andrea and the town.

-Looking ahead: will the group infiltrate Woodbury or will Merle get to the prison first? - I'm thinking the group will end up at Woodbury. Merle will be occupied trying to get the location of the prison out of Glen and Maggie so the group will have a jump on him.

-Any other comments or thoughts? I'm just really excited to see where this is going. I'm a minority, but I really like Michonne and I think she'll be great with the group.

-Overall thoughts good episode, bad, or meh? Good, a little Meh. I couldn't get as into it last night as prior episodes. 

-Carl confessed to Daryl about shooting Lori. Do you have closure or are you expecting a surprise? My rational side is telling me to have closure.  The optimist in me is still expecting her to be ok.  I can't stop thinking that there were no bones.  The walkers don't eat bones (that I know of)....

-What do you think about that whole phone conversation storyline that Rick had with dead people?  Ehh...I was skeptical of it from the get go.  It lead DH and I to a conversation on whether phone lines would still be working.

-When are they going to give that baby a name?!  I thought for sure when Rick was holding her he was going to give her a name right then and there.  I still like the name Hope.

-So Andrea and the Governor FINALLY boned, what does he want from her? Or is he really just into her?  He's not into her.  He has ulterior motives.  His question to Merl of whether or not Glen and Maggie knew Andrea was suspicious.  I think he has some sinister plans for Andrea.

-What is Merle's deal? Why did he bring them to the Governor?   I'm not sure to be honest.  I would have thought he would just hold them at knifepoint to get to Daryl.  Merl seems like the kind of guy where blood comes before anything else, and the opportunity to find Daryl would trump the Governor's wishes.I guess he's been pussified by the governor.  I think when he meets up with Daryl, he'll realize the governor is manipulating him.  What will happen to Glen and Maggie?  I really don't understand the point of dragging them there and grilling them.

-Did anyone else SWOON at Daryl hesitanting to open that door because he was afraid to finda walker Carol?  I swoon at anything Daryl does ;-)

-Will Michone's arrival at the camp be welcomed or hostile? Welcomed.  She has a lot of survival skills, a lot to teach them at the prison.  With her joining the group, they're gonna be a force to be rekoned with.

-Looking ahead: will the group infiltrate Woodbury or will Merle get to the prison first?  I think the Woodbury guys will get to the prison first, but the folks at the priosn will be prepared. 

-Any other comments or thoughts?  I think eventually it will come down to the governor vs Rick to lead Woodbury, and Rick will win.

I liked this episode much better then last. But neither episode was as awesome  as that meme!

I think Carl did shoot Lori.

I'm annoyed at Rick losing it so badly. I suppose I should cut him some slack - zombie apocalypse, wife just died, she screwed his BFF, he has a newborn baby who may or may not be his, and his son had to shoot his wife so that she didn't become a zombie. But still, pull it together!

The baby needs a name, but at least the found immaculate clothing that's perfectly clean, even after being held by dirty people...

I think the governor thinks Andrea might be as messed up as he is, so he's actually into her.

I think Merle brought them because he's told the governor about them and the governor wants them. He's likely worked out a deal to keep his brother alive, which the governor may or may not honor.

I was happy for Daryl and Carol!

i think they'll be weary of Michoone unless she actually decides to speak and not be creepy. If she gets a personality I think they'll welcome her.

I think they'll infiltrate Woodbury.

I love this show but holy crap ladies!! This is way too much writing for me! One question I do have... How was Carol locked in there??

Overall thoughts good episode, bad, or meh?
I thought it was ok, too much filler in this episode but I'm sure its leading up to a great new episode next week!!

Carl confessed to Daryl about shooting Lori. Do you have closure or are you expecting a surprise?
I don't know, I kinda feel like, where's her bones at, the walkers don't eat them. I'm expecting a surprise!

What do you think about that whole phone conversation storyline that Rick had with dead people?
I knew he was going crazy from the time it rang. I kinda hope rick steps back and lets daryl step up and their leader, he can't do it, he's lost his mind.

When are they going to give that baby a name?!
No kidding!!!

So Andrea and the Governor FINALLY boned, what does he want from her? Or is he really just into her?
I'm so over them, I kinda hope they become walkers or something just to get them out of the way already

What is Merle's deal? Why did he bring them to the Governor? What will happen to Glen and Maggie?
I think he's setting the governor up, knowing his brother will come looking for them, so he's holding them hostage

Did anyone else SWOON at Daryl hesitanting to open that door because he was afraid to finda walker Carol?
Ooooohhhhh yessssss

Will Michone's arrival at the camp be welcomed or hostile?
I think welcomed since she knows so much

Looking ahead: will the group infiltrate Woodbury or will Merle get to the prison first?
I hope infiltrate woodbury

Well those 2 are big ones. I think Lori's death, whether real or not, was a given. From Day 1 at Woodbury it was obvious that Andrea and the Govenor would get together. I think it was clear that Carol survived and that T Dawg was going to die this season. Everything that's happening is just not very creative and makes you think "Yeah, saw that coming."

The governor sleeping with Andrea was definitely predictable, but from the beginning they were obvious about the chemistry there so I don't think they were trying to hide that.  Lori's death didn't surprise me, especially because she was so unpopular.  But Carol surviving I was iffy on and I never would have predicted T Dawg dying.  Or Glenn and Maggie ending up at Woodbury, or Michoon ending up with the original crew.  I still like the series, but I'm worried about the future of it if they don't find better story lines to introduce.  The governor story line is not one that I'm enjoying.

I forgot to mention this in my original post, but I saw 'Love Actually' this weekend - I haven't seen it in years.  I didn't realize the actor that plays Rick is the guy who is lovesick for Kiera Knightley!!!  He's much cleaner and has more meat on his bones in the movie - he looked damn hawte.
