In this episode, Daryl went out looking for Sophia (who is perpetually lost to the point that I'm starting to lose interest), fell down a cliff and found her doll. He hallucinates that his brother is visiting him and helping him back. As he returns he is mistaken for a walker and shot by Andrea but only grazed - one of maybe two moments of true drama and suspense this episode.

Various other lesser plot points are going on - Hershel is becoming more of an arse as time goes on for reasons unknown (the ending of the episode no doubt being the reason), Lori (most annoying character ever) is keeping her pregnancy quiet (again, delaying the inevitable explanations), and the 'romance' between Maggie and Glenn seems to have been a device to reveal that the barn is holding walkers captive.


End Spoiler Alert!

I guess my main issue is that there's not much advancement like there was in series 1. They were on the move a lot, had to fight to survive, were discovering about the infection, constantly plagued by walkers etc. Now it feels like everything has ground to a halt and is all about the internal dramas in the group with no real plan for what they're going to do next. It's like playing a computer game that's all side-quests with no main goal.

Rick will always be an 'Egg' to me, and House will be eternally 'Wooster'.

The Walking Dead is pretty damned good though, and miles better than Lost imo.

Yes! And Jack Davenport was still Miles in ALL of the pirate movies!

I love this series as it remines me of those awful B movies I use to watch as a child !
Need more carnage though !
