True but I get annoyed when the primary focus of a female character is to help a male character develop. I liked Catherine Sakai for herself in B5. Vash in TNG was a joy.

Still, with any luck the two of them will grow and develop together. I just wish Daryl would wash more often. Squirrel blood is not a great perfume.

I like her too. And I think she is growing. But Daryl is really the only person in the group she had any connection with anymore.

I really like the Carol & Daryl relationship. She makes him more human and he makes her stronger. They compliment each other well. I hope we continue to see that, because I think they're great, much-underused characters.

This is looking pretty cool so far. I enjoyed Season 2 for the most part, but it definitely felt like the characters had things a little too easy on the farm.

Somehow I don't think that'll be the case this season.

I have a strong feeling the Governer will be in the new series.

The Governor was confirmed while season two was still airing.

Looks like some time has passed as Hershel and Carl's hair is a lot longer.

The Walking Dead Rolls Out Web Series Cold Storage:

• The Walking Dead might not be coming back to AMC until Oct. 14, but we’ll be seeing our favorite zombie drama a couple of weeks before then. A series of webisodes called Cold Storage will be released online starting Oct. 1, and will feature Lost alum Daniel Roebeck (best known for playing the ill-fated Dr. Leslie Arzt).

I repeat, I can't wait.

[auntiehill]

Me, either. This looks to be very exciting stuff.

Saw some new pics up on Blastr this morning and it got me thinking (ALWAYS dangerous)...

I know they are trying to loosly follow along with the comic, so this question/point is moot.. But...

Why, after a time, did they not try to go back and repopulate the farm, taking care to shore up defenses and such.. The zombie mob moves on, en masse, based on what we've seen in the show.. Yes, the prison, with its walls and fences, is easier to defend, but the farm comes with cropland and running water... Just a nicer place... It wouldn't be THAT much trouble to go to a nearby town, forage at a Home Depot for chainlink fencing and put up a defensible perimeter around the house for any future attacks.

Again, it doesn't really matter, but it just made me think...

Well, "In the comics":

...They did all that. In fact, the farm already had a defensible barrier and so on . They didn't spend nearly as much time at the farm before moving on, leaving Glenn there with Maggie. After discovering the prison and clearing it out, they go back to farm and convince everyone to move in with them. Since the winter had past and the undead meat popsicles were thawing out and attacking / wandering by more often, the farm gang was happy to migrate.

The prison itself eventually has its own farmland and already comes with several rings of fencing to protect against walkers, plus prison riot gear, a generator, tools and other weapons. It's a pretty tight place, but as it often happens in these sorts of things it's undone not by the hordes of zombies but by the humans within and without.

There wasn't anything bad with the TV farm, and the lack of walkers was acceptable enough. It wasn't proof against a horde though, and should another one come through a makeshift wall may not have been enough. A prison will have better walls for that sort of thing, and some of the later comics settlements they run into will have even better fortifications.

They're up on Youtube now so I was able to watch them. Thought they were awesome.

I liked the little reference to the main show.
