Also, I have a feeling the show isn't going to feature their story line at all next episode according to the previews. It's kind of like how soap operas work, the characters are spread out over non-related story arcs so there's not enough time to show them all in one episode, so I think it's going to be at least two weeks before we see all three meet up.

I also got the sense that the herd of walkers were beginning to detect Michonne. Did anyone else think that?
I got that sense as well. I kind of felt like one of them was going to take a chomp on her any second. Maybe because she was starting to come alive again and realize that she did not want to survive this go-round of the ZA the same way she did the first time. Alone and walking amongst them with her husband and his brother (?) as zombie companions. That - and seeing her zombie look alike - made her turn it all around and decide to follow the footsteps.

As far as the walkers leading HER - I agree with your analysis. At that point, she had given up.

Ditto

The only thing I didn't like about last nights episode was Herschel's head. It was kind of like seeing him killed all over again. Of course if Michonne had done that to the Gov's head I would have been OK with that.
Yes, I agree I made mention of this too, it bothered me as well.

Dittioto again I believe it was also made mention on TD.

Love, love, love this show, so much to look forward to finding out what and where and how. I'm so happy feels like I'm about to open a most pleasurable gift every week.

I agree...it IS a happy little gift these actors and writers give us...love talking about it and love The Talking Dead because they also are so excited to express happiness about the show!!

I was and wasn't disturbed about Hershel...sure it was hard to see his head but it did provide some closure for Michonne. She had a front row seat to that horror and so for her, she gingerly katana'd his head out of respect, I think. Nicotero had the head on TTD and Chris fed it some chocolate pudding...very amusing to me. What's amazing is the detail of the fake head...it really did look like Scott Wilson...they're really amazing at their craft!

I think, overall, that the attention to detail is pretty awesome. Sure, there are some things that have never been answered and some things that could use a slight tweak...but in general, the show is pretty dang good at consistency. It's like life though, some things are just never answered and we still move on...just as life goes on for them.

How many episodes will we have this spring...does anyone know?

Well, you gotta remember... this is the 2nd HALF of season 4... so, there are 16 episodes to a season, and they're just starting the 2nd half. I hate that they do that.

Speaking of Talking Dead, does Danai Gurira look much better without the Michonne Scowl on her face or what?

Oh, I know, but sheesh! They've got the actors, they've got the story...if they continue to give us this show at that slower pace (which I love for this show), why not give us say 12 episodes per half...12 in the fall, 12 in the spring...now THAT'S something that would still work. We get our fix, the advertisers pay mightily, the actors get to keep their jobs...I've got it all worked out!!
