I am betting Merle is the one watching Carol as well ... Should be some fun!

Dish Network and AMC have settled. AMC is back on Dish.

Good, now they can lose the anti-dish propaganda.
Another static episode couched in the 'well there was lots of violence so...' argument. And, oh joy...now Carl disappears, but for good things. The only one who hates Lori Grimes worse than me is...HER. Yawn. Liked Carol getting med skills, moves her up on the likely to NOT be walkerbait chart. T-Dog was actually in the middle of things too...of course, it was a prison(funny how 3 of the 5 inmates were black too. Just saying). I dunno, not much drama in killing new characters almost immediately, although the main guy needed to go. Just kind of meh.
I need a bigger version of the Walking Dead infographic so I can read it.
I loved the last episode enough that I didn't notice the complete absence of a woman with a katana until the episode was over. The death of the huge guy was just brutal, T-Dog actually had something to do, Rick using the machete was cold and awesome, Rick closing the gate was colder and wrong (is he turning into the guys from the bar in town last season?), and Carol practicing on the zombie was deeply icky.
Judging by the previews, that almost certainly can't be Merle watching Carol.
I wondered if AMC was going to get in trouble for having 60% of the prisoners be black, and the white one ends up being one of the only two survivors (for now).
Yeah, sorry...that WD infographic came out small. I will try to dig it back out and at least post a link to an embigginable type form.
Official: The Walking Dead the #1 Show on Television | Horror Movie, DVD, & Book Reviews, News, Interviews at Dread Central
Wait a minnit...this is actually bigger news than I immediately thought
ABC, NBC, CBS you are officially on notice.
Big news has come in for AMC and its hit television show "The Walking Dead." It warms our hearts that the horror genre is as of right now holding the #1 spot on television in non-sports. Oh, the blood-splattered glory of it all.
According to Deadline, with cable steadily gaining on broadcast, a cable show rising to the top of the ratings charts was just a matter of time. But who would’ve predicted just a couple of years ago that it won’t be a series on established basic cable networks like TNT, TBS, USA or FX, which have been nipping at broadcasters’ heels, to do it but a drama on AMC? Yes, the highest-rated non-sports telecast among adults 18-49 on all of television this fall was the third season premiere on AMC’s zombie drama "The Walking Dead," which drew 7.3 million 18-49 viewers in Live+same day, with no carriage on major satcaster DISH no less.
Also doing incredibly well is FX's horror series "American Horror Story," which launched last week as close second in the Wednesday 10 PM slot to seal cable dramas’ ratings assent during one of broadcast networks’ strongest periods — the first weeks of the season — when cable networks until recently didn’t even dare to program originals.
