I got this from another site some other person posted these thoughts; I thought they were well thought out:

i agree with the above statement (zombies in camo!)... dale's death seemed a little too sudden - he was by far the most careful and watchful/ observant person in the clan... and he had a gun and got ambushed?! he also was the "bleeding heart" of the group which is very important in terms of offering other perspectives... i think only rick has the ability/ capability to reason and take into consideration dales path of logic. Dale stood for order (they all or most do chores which dale enforced- communal actions) that commands a parental/ cautious personality which, now vacant - leaves a large hole which will get filled with rage, personal vendettas and selfish actions to either take power or save your own skin type of deal. Dale was cooky but meant well in all facets of the old world and new world - he tried his best to bridge the two and not forget where we as humans came from... Even though he did not want to do what must be done- like kill the prisoner; he was always looking for alternative answers, getting people to talk in round table fashion and construct a democratic decision. Strength in numbers! I hope the group does not disband... rick is the only glue left to keep them as one.

the farmer/ doctor who owns the farm seems to lean towards death even though he is the one that preserves it... i feel as though his siding with rick is weak in bond but he may perhaps prevail as the new dale. I really see him turn inwards when he says this is my farm/ you can or can not sleep in the house, etc... he is the old, wise one now and he knows they all need him for his skill... i dunno - he still seems cold to me.

since walkers have found the farm, they are going to have to make travel plans.

water is a key element that seems to be unexplored... not too much water in GA per say BUT i could see an island or floating city happen but they are going to run out of supplies and head back into the city where merl will be waiting... the country/ farm is getting overrun and the zombies need food.
