And Green Giant...WTH are you talking about?! LOL

The idea that people will cry racism over the zombies she totes around.  What they were, as in race, is unrecognizable.  

The only reason someone would assume they are black zombie slaves is if you assume the black woman on the show would only date black people and be friends with black people.  It isn't her family she is dragging around, it is her boyfriend and best friend.  

If you want to scream anything about her chained pets, scream sexism.  Personally I think it is just bad ass.  I see nothing further into it than she is so bad ass she tamed two zombies.

Woah hold up guys!  I didn't say I thought it was racist, I said it's going to be a PR nightmare... in other words OTHER people are going to think that.  And in the show at least, those guys have brown skin or at the very least very black features.  It could be the lighting, but I don't think so.  

Mikezilla:
Dude they are totally black guys. Its her boyfriend and his bestfriend right?! Man. If I watch any of the next season, its only because Michonne is in it.

Hmm...You might be forgetting about the black leader of the group they find in the prison. He tried to take over the group by force with guns when a zombie invasion happens and in the confusion, while everyone is focused on staying alive, rick shoots the black dude in the head. Not to mention, the psycho that cuts the heads off of the little girls and slices Andrea's face up. Didn't he kill him too? I don't blame Rick, I would do the exact same things.

Also, the things Michonne has on chains are just zombies with their arms and jaws ripped off. I don't even think they are black...and I did not see them as "black guys" in the comic either, so I'm not sure why you are trying to attach something racist to this.

Nah, that's not what I meant.  Shane (on the show) wanted to kill people for what they might do when they haven't done anything all that bad yet, which is cowardly.  Rick kills people after they've already done something they would normally get the death penalty for and generally when it happens he doesn't have a whole lot of options (like the bar scene this season).  Now I don't believe in capital punishment myself, but in those particular cases I'm not sure what else he could have done.  Rick's a killer to be sure, but he isn't a murderer... that's the difference.


Plus those were two prisoners in a maximum security prison... they didn't get in there for jay-walking.

Bootay:
HC: Damn Internets!! heh Yea I misunderstood your meaning. Sorry. Well...either way I am excited for next season. This was the best episode since the first episode with the herd on the highway. Everything in between has been talking-talking-bitching-bitching-talking-talking-OH ---steaming pile of meadow muffin--- A ZOMBIE-bitching-bitchig-talking-credits.

Howard_Casto:
Well unless they really vamp up the script for next season, don't expect too much.  Like I said before, it looks like they are accelerating things a bit what with the governor's appearance also in this season, but in the books they were in the prison for about a year and with a few very, very notable exceptions, absolutely nothing happened.  A lot like this season really.... very exciting at first, then nothing happens.... then a couple of interesting things happen mid-way through, then nothing again.. then BAM!  Holy CRAP!

Spoilers:

They'll spend a good amount of time learning how to farm.

Actually the show is pretty faithful to the books in that regard.  All of last year in the comics I think they had one zombie outbreak. :(
