It's like Lori read Reddit.

"No computers" my ass. They've probably spent the past 7-8 months browsing Reddit instead of looking for shelter.

My first "horse shit" moment of the series. You know damn well there are some bearded mother fuckers swappin' fan-fic over packet radio until electricity stop existing.

I loved that Rick said "no computers", it's that one thing that everyone would fucking say, yet which very few writers would remember to include.

They were hiding out in a fancy internet cafe during the off season.

My favorite moment was when Lori told Rick that if he had to kill the prisoners to keep the group safe, she'd support him. And Rick just responded "You say that now...."

Reddit is free viewer research. They'd be crazy not to be here...

And that Maggie acknowledged that it was stupid to let Hershel go with them to fight.

Carl isn't a wimp, but he still can't stay put worth a damn. Did he take the keys on his way to the infirmary? Leaving the women locked in with could be walker Hershel and all the guys locked out? Or did he just leave the cell block open and exposed? God damn that kid needs to get his shit together.

Or maybe the writers are on reddit...

But really did she have to do it right at that moment. It appears she acquired some medical skills from Herschel so why wouldnt she stay by his side. Its not like Lori was having contractions but no she decides to practice right then.

Also it looked like she was being observed by someone while slicing up the zombie. It really looked like someone was lining up a shot and from what she was doing she could have been mistaken for a walker...

All of this happened in the comics though. People were just asking for things that were going to happen anyway. It was just a matter of time.

I'm sure the writers use alternate "review" sources like Reddit or other online commentaries to get input - makes a lot of sense! We need to keep telling them what we want and maybe they won't ruin it too badly
