The walking dead is relatively easy to run into the ground as characters can be believably killed off if an actor wants out.

Also for anyone interested these are the direct scenes from the comic from last night  :)
NSFW because of language/violence.

And then the ending line.

Looks so much better in context! (Also I'm not sure about forum policy on linking to something with swears/violence. If it's against the rules I'll remove the links)

I heard Terminus isn't in the comics at all - if so, who's Rick talking about there?

Also I'm so glad the show wasn't dumb enough to have Rick's hand cut off.  At least not yet.

A winner is someone who recognizes his God-given talents, works his tail off to develop them into skills, and uses these skills to accomplish his goals.

SPOILERS up to current date with the show

Rick is talking about "The Hunters" there which are what the people in Terminus are. The hunters were a group of people who hunted people with bows and guns and were cannibals. The people in Terminus are a spin on the hunters in that while they don't hunt with weapons or by force, they lure people into their trap. It's more or less the show taking a different spin on things which I think is awesome because even comic nerds like me have no idea exactly what will happen.

Also yeah in the books, the Governor cuts Rick's hand off but I doubt this will happen in the show. Robert Kirkman has said he regrets doing that in the comics, so the show kind of gives him a chance to change that.

TP. Thanks for the links. I should really check out the comic sometime. Although at this point i am invested in the show and don't want to know what is coming next.

Bring on the next season!

As an aside...
I normally am not too into time filling flashbacks, but i kinda dug the farming angle with Hershel. It puts a bow on Rick's transformation from civilized "softness" to an all out survivor, capable of being a monstrous killer.

You definitely should.  As crazy and brutal as some of the scenes have been on the show, they don't even go near some of the stuff from the comic.  It's interesting to compare some of the characters between the two, as well.  Tyrese and Andrea, in particular, are much cooler / more likeable in the comic.

125, I think.

I'd start with buying Compendium #1.   Link

It's the first 48 issues.  Compendium #2 is out, as well.

Rick biting that dudes neck off was jaw dropping.

Did not see that coming, but he scene with hi sitting in front of the truck with blood all over his face was pretty scary.  Like he had just completely lost his mind, but then finally realized what he really would have to do to survive.

Now, you don't just have to watch out for zombies bites, you gotta watch out for that crazy sonofabiscuit, Rick.

Yeah Rick went  primal in that scene. It was all about saving his friends and his boy from what I took looked like it was starting to get  a little Deliverance like.

Rick as transformed back to Leader Rick and new and improved. Rick 2.0!

I loved that line that Rick said at the end about how the they knew something that they didn't, and that was not to Mess (not sure if i can say exact word on CB) with this group.

Next season should be really good!

overall it's a good episode. Got kind of teary when RIck reunited with Judith and everyone. Now I am interested at the ending? Did the comic end by any chance? Did they ever reach DC? What happens in DC?

yeah really good ep.  i was surprised that the terminus arch was over in one show.  but I guess the main bad guy garrett(sp?) is still out there.
