The Walking Dead 3.5 "Say the Word" (spoiler warning)

Too excited for the new episode coming up in 3.5 hours. I wonder what's going to happen next? Will they find Carol? Will Andrea hook up the The Governor? Will Michonne do more than glower? Will Rick go crazy? Can they trust the two prisoners? Did they manage to seal up the prison after the zombie incursion?

Carol is also in it briefly and just like in the Walking Dead, goes hysterical trying to get reunited with her kids.

4. if you watch a lot of sci-fi, you'll see many of the same actors over and over and over..

recycles a lot of old Sci-Fi stars on their Saturday night B movies.

One I remember had a huge amount of old stars - The Bone Eater. Had Bruce Boxleitner from Babylon 5, Gil Gerard from Buck Rogers, Walter Koenig, William Katt (Greatest American Hero), Veronica Hamel from Hill Street Blues, and maybe one or two others that I'm forgetting.

11. Well the common link between those three and the Walking Dead is Frank Darabount

He did both the Mist and Walking Dead. The guy who plays Dale also starred in Darabount's Green Mile and Shawshank Redemption.

The comics had the governor with a walker for a daughter... and, they had that on the show just now. Had him cuddling the little walker saying that daddy still loves her.

...ok, my predictions:

1) Tonight Rick and the group will kick off the 1st of 6 episodes wandering around the prison searching for Carol.

2) The baby will cause a near death incident by crying. (my long term guess is that baby will end up being nursed by the pregnant woman at Woodbury, but Rick will not not run into Merle there because...)

3) Michonne and Andrea will leave on seemingly good terms, but suddenly become 'the hunted' by the Governor's posse. Merle will go rogue and save their asses, but make a pact with Andrea to help him find Darryl. (I suspect next week we'll see the remains of the old farm, and revisit the highway of death)

4) Michonne will continue to glower.

I hope she comes back as a zombie so they can kill her again.

Then Carl.

15. I don't think the Writers have any idea how to write Michonne's dialogue

She gets her sword poking against the Governor's neck and she doesn't say one damn word?
