They did moved the story faster by jumping forward a bit and backfilling. It's TV producing 101 and they've generally sucked at it.

I don't know anything for sure. But, in shows like this, I'm always careful to only attribute facts to things that we, the audience, actually get to see. on camera, all hear Carl shoot his mom. Then, Rick finds what we are supposed to believe is Lori eaten by a big fat walker. Sure, it could be true and Carl could have shot her. But, I still wouldn't be shocked to see Rick confronted with zombie Lori and he kills her to get over his mental illness.

I would probably agree with you if Kirkman had not confirm it on live tv.

I'm pretty sure it was said on the Talking Dead Lori is NOT coming back.

POSSIBLE SPOILER





























Here's an interview with Kirkman. It isn't a real definitive: Yes, Carl shot her and she is not coming back as a walker.
quote:

What came with the decision not to show Carl actually shoot Lori? Part of me hoped that could mean she's still alive.
Kirkman: You don't want to show too much of that stuff. I think we showed quite a bit in this episode. A lesser show would have a zombie Lori lurking in the prison and doing all kinds of nefarious things. That would be an absolutely hokey, ridiculous thing to do. That's certainly not something we're trying to set up. We were just trying to step back and do this in a little bit more tasteful way.
i laughed that it would be too hokey and ridiculous to have her be a walker, but not to have Rick dream her up in his mind and see things. still, I don't think those comments are a definite "Lori was shot by Carl" comment.

Nah, you frick off. Check the thread title, a-hole:

So yeah, it sucks that almost every week someone feels the need to post spoilers.

It doesn't matter if they're clearly labeled...this thread is for NONE.

I don't care about these spoiler battles much one way or the other. But I never thought Talking Dead interviews were considered spoilers. Are they?

There are a ton of what someone could call spoilers in this thread:

Lori dies.
Carl shoots her off screen.
Morgan returns this episode.
Morgan is crazy.
Michonne talks.
Michonne likes rainbow colored cats.
Michonne becomes part of group.
Rick is crazy, but Morgan makes Rick feel sane.

I'm pretty sure the "No Spoilers" refers to not spoiling the episode as it is airing. Or, discussing the comics and whether those things will happen in the show. Comments from the Talking Dead and interviews with the shows creators have been posted in every single thread. And, with good reason. They are there for discussion, on a discussion board.

If you see the word SPOILER, just scroll your bad self down and pretend like you didn't see it.

No. It's for people who have read about future things (like info from the comics) about the show. This thread is for the show as it is shown on TV...no information past that is discussed (I'm not even sure what you mean by "spoiling it as it is airing.."). Yet every now and then people feel like they need to drop hints or talk about future shite from teh comics. And before you say "The show isn't following the comics exactly," that's a bullshite argument because the show IS following the comics. Just because it isn't following page for page, or maybe they created a character here and there for the show, that doesn't mean that information from the source material isn't being used. And people don't like that information that hasn't been on the show yet to be talked about. It's pretty simple really.

All these:
quote:

Lori dies.
Carl shoots her off screen.
Morgan returns this episode.
Morgan is crazy.
Michonne talks.
Michonne likes rainbow colored cats.
Michonne becomes part of group.
Rick is crazy, but Morgan makes Rick feel sane.

Are directly from the show, so of course they will be talked about.

There aren't supposed to be any spoilers in this thread. None. Zero. What don't you understand about that? It's not a "no spoilers unless they're clearly labeled" thread. And I guarantee you if some future spoiler-ish information was on TTD and someone posted it here people wouldn't be happy. Besides, spoilers are a slippery slope anyway, so the easiest/safest thing is to not post any in here and use the threads for spoilers instead.

do you consider a director, writer from the show clarifying something that has already aired a spoiler?

what about them clarifying and saying that Carl did in fact shoot Lori in the head, and that she never became a walker? It is confirming what we were supppose to believe. Or, them stating that the person in body armor that drove the zombie car bomb into the prison was just one of the Governor's people. It isn't some surprise person with a big reveal later.

if the writers are clarifying what already happened (not something that will be shown later), is that a spoiler?

I'm okay with that.

And my whole thing is that spoilers are a slippery slope. So the easiest thing is to just allow none (which is what I thought the threads have become). So I was trying to keep the thread clear of that.

can you look up a few posts and answer my question that I had asked someone else? Just trying to get a clarification on what defines a spoiler.
