I don't think Dale haters are evil. I think there are MANY of them! My husband, for one, could not STAND him. We used to argue about it. One of my good friends was the same way. I will say, on rewatch he annoyed me more than he did the first time around, but I'm not sure if that's because my husband tainted me or not.

Dale is much worse on rewatch!  I was kind of meh about him - how nosey he was bugged - but I could deal.  Rewatching the second season, gah!  Hated him.

My Andrea hate started the minute I laid eyes on her.  I kept saying it was weird that I hated her so much because she was the one I most identified with (and I swear, I am not self-loathing).  I actually cheered when she finally bit the big one.

I'm not one to blame actors, but I seriously think it is the actor.  I despised her from the minute I laid eyes on her on X-Files too.  That chick just gives off a nasty vibe.

I didn't realize that was why I couldn't stand her so much until later episodes. I don't think she comes across as nice or genuine (or at least rarely). See also: Sarah Wayne Callies. (and I know some people like Jacqui, or however the character's name was spelled, but I think her actress was awful too)

when these seasons were first on tv, I'm following the story and what will happen next. Re-watching or marathoning, you know how the story goes and you can give more attention to the stuff you missed the first time. Also, bad mannerisms are not standing out so much in a once a week view, but watching a box set is like :

 

 EYES EYES EYES

That's when I noticed how Lori continually took one slice of cucumber or something and examined it for 20 minutes before taking 1 little nibble. Or hip slinging Andrea,or the way Beth always stands with a stiff body leaning forward and her arms at her sides like she's going to be shot from a cannon.

Yup, on re-watch, Dale shot past Shane & Andrea on my hate list. He is so insufferable. The way he bossed Glenn around, the way treated Andrea like a child but then he gave off a vibe like he wanted her. Gross. And I blame most of my dislike of Dale on the actor. He knew nothing of subtlety. And don't get me started on "Dale face".

"Marita Covarrubias". Laurie Holden was awful on the X-Files, but I was willing to give her a chance on TWD after not seeing her "acting" for well over a decade. But her attempt to be a badass while sticking a gun in Rick's face was laughable and her acting never improved. Not sorry to see her or Andrea off the show.

Oh. My. Gosh. YES!!!! That girl is so awkward. She just doesn't know what to do with herself. She's like a marionette that was just abandoned. 

 

 

Unlike most, I liked Lori more upon rewatching. Shane too.

Oh, hell yeah! I felt he was mentally undressing her, even as he was playing Daddy.

 

I don't think Daryl took the gun from Rick because he wanted to spare Rick the trauma of blowing Dale away. He just wanted to do it himself and send that nosy, tedious bore to the big Golden Pond in the sky.

LOL! See, the whole Dale-creeping-on-Andrea thing was another one I did get the first time around. My good friend mentioned it and I was like, "what???" I don't see that at all!" But now when I rewatch I kind of do. I don't get it. I am not that malleable. I must have been blind to Dale in the beginning.

Now you made me stay up all night watching videos lol!

 

I shouldn't be the only one sitting here in the wee hours guffawing over nonsense,should I? Best part was Andrea and Dale are arguing about her vibrator and it switches to Rick and Shane with those "WTF?" looks on their faces. NO, the best part is Dale and the Beiber song, or is it RIck's daydream or ....you're right - it's ALL the funniest.

1. A member of your group is in a life-or-death state and you need to go on a medical run. You take two other members of your group with you. The place you hit up is completely overrun and you get into a real jam. You get the supplies, and you're pretty close to your vehicle, but you're almost out of ammo and the herd is closing in. You realize you need to sacrifice one member of your group, so that you and the other member can sprint the last few yards to the car in relative safety. Who do you sacrifice - Dale or Andrea?

 

Dale. And that's coming from a viewer who honestly liked Dale. You're never going to get him to leave Andrea, though. The only way to save even one of them is to save the one that you actually can. Plus, once I'm alone in the car with Andrea, she might want to have danger-sex.

2. Your group has taken a prisoner and is keeping them in a secure location, separate from the main living quarters. All adults of the group are needed for an important meeting to decide said prisoner's fate, so you decide to place one of the older children on watch duty for an hour or so. Who do you choose - Patrick or Lizzie

 

How is this even a question? Patrick, of course! I would choose anyone over Lizzie. I would choose Lori over Lizzie. I would choose Shane, while I had sex with Lori, on top of Carl's corpse, over Lizzie. I would choose The Governor over Lizzie. I would choose the fat rapist who wanted to make sweet love to Carl over Lizzie. I would choose Eugene over Lizzie. I would choose Meghan, playing with her stupid mud pies and one-eyed pirate chesspiece, over LIzzie. I would choose Marilyn Manson and J.B Smoove over Lizzie. I would choose Carl, right after he lost his shoe, emptied out his gun, and ate 112 ounces of pudding, over Lizzie.

3. Your group has just set up camp in a new location and you are assigning various jobs to all members. Who do you place in charge of cooking - Cannibal Chef Mary or Lumpy Pancake Queen Lori

 

Mary. And if she complains about needing more supplies, I will be happy to tell Lori to go in and "assist" her. Shouldn't alter the overall plot too much...

Carl: This burger makes me want to go dangerous places without telling anyone!

Andrea: These fajitas make me think I really shouldn't have to work in the kitchen!

Shane: This meatloaf makes me want to shave my head and kill!

I suppose Tyreese would have to be Judith's mother, but at least then we'd understand how he manages to care for a newborn for months on end without any formula...

 

4. You're on the run with your family (spouse and one child) when you find what you believe is an abandoned house to hole up in for a bit. Only when you reach the attic of the house do you discover someone else is already living there. Who would you rather run into - Tomas or Joe?

Joe. At least I didn't have to think for a second to remember who he was. I'd hate for my last words to have to be "Wait, who?"

5.You have to spend the ZA as a Walker, whose style would you most want to adopt:  Bicycle Girl; dragging yourself across the land at a snail's pace, Well Walker; bloated but well hydrated. or Tasty McDangly Legs; just hanging around, watching all the fresh meat that passes by?

Well Walker. They don't really suffer from boredom or hunger; they just respond to prey stimulus when they see it. Less stimuli means less appetite. Plus, maybe he can order out. Didn't he have Korean delivered once?

You damn well better be here every day when the season starts!!!
