Kelda:
I do wonder now if the person in the shadows in the episode a few weeks back is now the 'Everybody Hates Chris' guy as Daryl is back to get reinforcements?
CellarDweller:
I'm wondering about the death we're supposed to see this season. Most people are leaning towards Beth, some toward Carol.
I'm wondering if perhaps they'll do something different......something along the lines like only one can survive, and the group (or maybe just one person, like Daryl, who is close to both) has to make a decision of which one to save.

Oooh, good theory, Kelda! That makes perfect sense, because I didn't think Daryl would have spoken quite so mysteriously if it had been ether Carol or Beth in the shadows.

Have you heard for sure there'll be one, or are you just assuming based on previous seasons?

They do seem like they're setting Carol up to die -- she was about to leave on her own, anyway -- whereas they're building Beth up to be a more contributing member of the group.
That would be a mistake, I think -- killing off a character that we've come to respect and feel interest in, while keeping a character who has edged up sightly in interest but still is far from exciting.

Ooooh, that's another good theory, Chuck!

Not sure how reliable the "Inquisitor" is, but this was recently posted.
‘The Walking Dead’s’ Norman Reedus ‘Devastated’ By Mid-Season Finale
Should Walking Dead fans be worried? When it comes to the often brutal AMC zombie hit, the answer is always yes. But a post on Walking Dead star Norman Reedus’s Facebook page may signal events far worse than what fans have come to already expect — especially considering the toll it took on the actor himself.
[Warning: Spoilers Ahead]
Reedus posted a snippet from the latest TV Guide describing shooting Walking Dead’s mid-season finale, which airs November 30.
“Reedus describes the hour’s final moments as so devastating that they unleashed an intense wave of feelings before the cameras rolled. ‘I sat on an apple box with my head between my legs and just balled for an hour,’ he says. ‘I really wanted not to tear up during [the scene] — I wanted to be like I wasted every tear in my body before we started shooting — so I just sat there and cried and cried and cried.'”

Ahem. I think the spelling they're looking for in this situation is "bawled."
But what can that mean? You'd think if it's some devastating plot turn he'd have been aware of it long enough not to be so suddenly overcome with emotion.
It's probably not Daryl dying, because actors don't usually confess to crying and crying over losing a part in a hit series (although many probably do).
So maybe it's Carol? If he's upset about Carol leaving, it would suggest that the two actors are as close in real life as their characters are. Maybe that's the case.
Perhaps the Inquisitor isn't the most reliable, but that would be a pretty odd quote for a publication to make up from scratch.
Curiouser and curiouser!
Meanwhile, I'm glad Maggie stepped up and became a little more badass last night. But I hope that's not a sign that they're shifting the balance of female badassery to Maggie (and Beth) from the doomed Carol.
And what's up with the pastor?
