Artboy99 Posted November 4, 2011 Share Posted November 4, 2011 They have to kill off characters. They HAVE to. Nobody is safe (thumbs u And by killing off "main" characters like they did in the books it becomes an innovative TV show, and successful. When I read the trade paperbacks, and got to the one that had Lori and the baby gunned down in the prison I was shocked! And yet, not surprised. The Walking Dead has some "realism" to it as far as what I see happening in the given situations. That is what will happen on the TV show as well. We have seen it with Shane leaving Otis for dead. Now we need to see more of the same Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
USArmyParatrooper Posted November 4, 2011 Share Posted November 4, 2011 And by killing off "main" characters like they did in the books it becomes an innovative TV show, and successful. I agree. The way the comic does it is they introduce new characters for you to get attached to to replace the dead ones. Also, PENlS!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now we need to see more of the same I think that by reading the comics you are able to relate to and get more into the characters than by watching them on TV. I feel that now we have got to know the characters better over time that they will start getting killed off and have more of an impact. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boone, Eko, Ana Lucia and Shannon were killed off early. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shane can go at any moment, or he may be the last one standing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ForlornOutcast Posted November 4, 2011 Share Posted November 4, 2011 I just watched upsisode 2 and 3 on DVR, an I am happy with both. I wasn't sure how good it was going to be after ep1 but right now, its hitting the mark. I have read the first few issues (6) of Walking Dead, so I'm out of the loop after Season 1, so its all a surprise to me Can't wait for episode 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stumptown Posted November 4, 2011 Share Posted November 4, 2011 I looked at IMDB a few weeks ago and saw how many episodes the actors would be in this year and then quickly diverted my eyes because I knew it would potentially give stuff away. That said, my guess is that Shane kills Daryl but no one knows this and then later on, Carl shoots Shane to save Rick. I don't think I'm wrong on the Carl thing because it would harden Carl up some, shock viewers who didn't watch St. Elsewhere in the 80's and be faithful to the book (which I think the teevee folks don't care about as much as we think they do. 6 million teevee viewers vs. less than 50,000 readers. Who do you think feeds that bank?). Watching his son kill someone would also harden up Rick which it also did in the comic. However, I could be wrong on the Daryl thing as I believe his brother either will tbe Governor or his first mate and the brother v. brother thing would be interesting. I wonder how far out they write the show. Wonder if they've changed things now that they know that there will already be a season 3? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think it's accurate...they list the actress playing Sophia as being in all 13 episodes. That number is for both seasons combined. Rick, who we know won't get knocked off, is listed as being in 19 episodes or every episode each season. Others have less. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
