    No..not really.
    I mean the whole "zombie thing" could really happen.
    Why? because it hasn't happened so we don't really know that it can or cannot happen. Logic tells us NO.

    I truly never started reading into the series until they got to the prison.

    I can end the show right now.

    Get a boat, go to alcatrazz, clear the prison, start a food plot.
    Make runs to the mainland for some milk cows, beef, poultry, hard liquor and baby cribs.
    Game over. :)

    Alcatraz isnt an active prison anymore. nothing to clear except for maybe tour guides if they live on the island.

    Then thats totally opposite from what the show depicts.
    Andrea was asked herself when she got to the guvnahs compound how long it was since she saw Merles brother, Daryl and the rest of her old crew. She said 9 months.

    Hershel's farm has been in his family for 160 years (s2 ep9). Hershel left home at age 15 and didn’t return for his father’s funeral (s2 ep10). He is an alcoholic. He drank heavily at the local bar every night until Maggie was born, and then he quit cold turkey. His first wife, Josephine, bought back his grandfather's pocket watch when he became sober, which he'd pawned long ago to pay for his drinking habits (s2

    I'm going by the events that have taken place during the show. Not from what I've "read" on a timeline website.

    in the first episode of the 3rd season they state they've been searching all over the area for stuff during the winter. that's the only time i've seen where they state or insinuate to a time shift in the show.

    And again.....carl gets a chest hit from a high powered deer rifle, treated by a "vet" and he's off and running? By your calculations, what....3 months recovery time?

    1- Anyone else find it strange that all this time, Rick's hometown is only a short drive away?

    2 - What was the deeper meaning we were supposed to glean from the backpack dude?

    3 - Not current episode related, and maybe I'm being a typical guy, but I thought Michonne had some sort of love interest with Andrea...now THAT would be a scene

    Agreed. Somewhere in there they said something about heading north because the cold weather might "slow" the zombies down.
    Yet there still within a few miles drive from Ricks hometown.

    (1) yes. my big bitch of this last episode.

    (2) indeed. I think there will be a surprise as to "who" the backpack belonged to.

    (3) ooohhhh, yea. Please let it happen.
