Yes, it came back with a bang! I'm so glad I no longer hope that Carl gets eaten. Still not totally sure I wouldn't like to see Lori as an appetizer . I didn't go back to rewatch last years final episode, so could anyone tell me if I was seeing things when I remember seeing the prison in the distance at the end of that episode? If it was there, what the hell have they been doing for the last few months?

Great episode, i have missed it. One thing, taking off Hershal's leg with a hatchet was a bit much. It would have been very, very, messy. A knife and saw would have been much more practical.

This premiere wasn't good at all. It was excellent! :)
I loved the chemistry between the characters, how the ricktatorship had developed itself was a marvelous to see.
Looking forward to the new characters.

Season 3, Awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!I could watch this show all day & night.
Love that rick is the leader, as he should be!! I have never liked lori but I almost feel sorry for her.Not because rick is pissed at her, he should be, but because of the baby.This is the best tv show ever. Great cast & crew.

Wow..now that"s a season opener. Always detested Lori, but almost feel sorry for her now. She is realizing that she really screwed it up with Rick. He still cares about the baby, but that was a real kick in the face when he said"Go talk to Herschel!" Waiting to see if Herschel dies. It's the first time someone has been bitten in an extremity that can be amputated..will it work? I hope so; he is rather endearing! You go, Carol..loved that she hit on Daryl and shoots like Annie Oakley! Carl is more tolerable; his crush is cute. Wondering what will happen with the guys they found alive inside. How were they surviving? I still could do without Andrea..just don't like her! She was really rotten towards Dale. He cared about her so much and she was constantly hurting his feelings. I DO NOT LIKE HER! Michonne will be a fascinating character. Where's Meryl? Is he one of the Governor's people? I am anxious to see how he reacts to the group when they reunite. This is a great show!!!

Great season opener!! You could feel the desperation when they finished clearing the house in the beginning and sitting on the floor looking at the dog food. This isn't the sweet fairy tale on the farm anymore and I'm glad it's not. I like all the characters better now, especially Carl now that he's grown up some and taken a spot on the strike team. Lori's character seems more interesting with the space between her and Rick, not quite sure what's going on there but I'm sure we'll learn more.
I liked the prison as a location and the fighting was dramatic right up to the leg chopping scene.. I'm not sure how they'll deal with the living prisoners but that definitely changed the situation at the prison.. Is Rick supposed to let them go? Or join the team? Or kill them? good questions for a new season.
OMG!!! miss dis show, still hate lori!!!!! i think carl want to get in bed with beth in prison!!!hahaha!!! finally!!!! if Carol and Darryl sleep together!! it would be like MILF!!!!! HOLY COW

Oh, another testament to their development. I was hoping it would open with Andrea but I forgot about her until they showed her. It was that interesting.
I can't say I feel bad for Lori but I hate her less, so I suppose that is progress. And I think the Beth Carl thing is just Carl having a crush on her and her not wanting to hurt his feelings. Carl is asked to be much older than he is (and dare I say, doing a pretty good job at it) so it makes sense he'd start looking around in that way. The "old Carl" would have snuck off and followed them, after protesting and whining, about not going with them. New Carl "got it".
I think Andrea will be okay b/c I think Michone will make sure she is properly taken care of - for some reason she seems very protective of her. They must have bonded a lot taking care of each other over the winter. I've grown to like Andrea and hope we see the Andrea we hear of.

I was SO excited by this opener. I agree that I think *this* will be the season we've been waiting for. There were a few DUH, really guys?? moments but overall great. I loved that I didn't hate Carl this time, and not once were the words "where's Carl" uttered. There goes my favorite WD drinking game :/
The idea of having a baby that died and turned into a zombie inside me and could be ready to eat me alive (yay, I am living in a buffet!) is TERRIFYING!!!!! HOLY S***.
Loved Carol's flirting. "Even better!" about Darryl 'going down first' made me literally LOL.
Our tactical WTF was why they would waste SO much ammo and energy going through the crowd instead of trying to draw as many as possible to the fence for a good poking and then just going after the stragglers. ESPECIALLY when there are hordes nearby - why call them closer with the massive gunfire? Just a thought.

Brilliant opening to the season! I especially loved the opening scene and the eerie silence!! The way Rick emphasised the ranks and formations when they were taking the prison was so cool and it just reinforces what you said about a world where killing zombies is the norm...and dayum I can't believe how quickly Rick just chopped off Hershel's leg...poor guy.

Fucking badass !! Now thats how a season should start...Best season opener thus far for me.
Lori seems a tad over-pregnant for me lol,the prosthetic seemed to be a bit much.
Insane gore !! Im a gorehound through and through and this episode delivered the chunky grue with merry glee. 5/5 on the gore scale.
I actually kinda want Hershel to survive,but it would be like having a one legged man in an ass kicking contest....So sadly i cant see him sticking around much longer.
Cannot wait for next week !!

I am curious to see where it goes also. I really like Hershel. I hope he lives. As for the "other" survivors that are in the prison, were they hiding or were they acting like zombies? Did they leave the zombies that couldn't move as boobie traps...could happen. I felt bad for Lori. I know she is a heffer but jeez, being pregnant in that kind of environment would be terrifying. I like Carol and Daryll. They both deserve to have a little happiness in their life. (I flat out ADORE Norman Reedus) They were all so bad ass in the opener....ready to see more of Michonne and Andrea....Can't wait for next Sunday...

Great episode.
Not enough Andrea and Michonne and her "pets" as they were called on "Talking Dead"
I also don't think Hershel will make it.
Surprised at the other survivors, however, I think there's even more.
So Carl isn't the spoiled brat that everyone has to watch anymore....
Don't feel sorry for Lori at all. The big question coming out of this episode is will she have a zombie baby?????? Is it Rick's? Is it Shane's?
This season is going to be great!

I think they're implying that Carl has a crush on Beth and both she and her dad know it and think it's adorable. Cause y'know...that happens...more likely than the writers setting up some sort of inappropriate romantic story arc.
