    It will be interesting to see what Hershal has to say about the experience. If your remember Shane started getting reprogrammed almost immediately and as far i can recall this is the first person who has been so close to death and come back. They may not even pursue this angle but it would make things interesting.

    "What just happened?"

    They just pulled one of the oldest horror movie tricks on you, that's what.

    Anyway, Lori revived him and he sprung awake. It's the old "cat jumps from a dark corner".

    Absolutely true! It was also a slight of hand... as the show is so fond of doing. In Ep 301 while we were busy thinking Lori was going to die, Hershel gets bit (easy to see it coming). In 302 it looks like Hershel is going to die and the writers work hard to convince us of this by making sure that Carol has the medical skills to deliver Lori's baby in Hershel's absence. So, now that Hershel is off the hook, my guess is that Carol is the intended target and will be killed by her unseen stalker. But hey, I could be wrong. :)

    Lori saving Hershel made me like her more cause I would've been sad if Hershel died.

    Same here. I actually like Hershel. So if I was in Lori's shoes. I would have done the same and revived him without question.

    Lori is most interesting character in the series. She saves life (Hershal), condemns life (Shane), and will give life (the unborn child). She does her best to bring stability to the group, knowing that trying to creating a life worth living is more difficult than taking down a walker. With the exception of Rick and Carl, everyone else appreciates Lori. Rick and Carl won't know what they have lost unitl she is gone, and if she is killed, then the group will suffer a significant lose.

    I'm surprised Lori stepped up and did what she did. But then she would do anything to try and redeem herself to Rick. But then the way he thanked her was like throwing her a bone. She has to do more than that for his forgiveness love back and respect back.

    Also agree 100%..

    Lori is stability for Rick & Carl, everyone is pairing up since they have no stable connection to draw hope from..

    When she is gone the transformation into the hard characters will continue for Rick & Carl..

    I found him grabbing her as if he was going to bite her to be a bit cheesy, but hey, it worked. Definitely made me jump out of my seat.

    Seems like she's trying to redeem herself for sure. I do think we're seeing Lori's character improve, which I like. She's becoming less of a bitch, more of a team player.

    Even if that was Hershel turning, he wouldn't have grabbed on Lori that way. Remember Andrea's sister back from Season 1? When she first turned she wasn't as strong as Walkers are usually are. Maybe it takes some time before the virus completely takes full control over a dead body. But anyway, I too thought that Hershel turned (for a moment) and Lori would be finally bitch-bitten!

    I wouldn't worry about someone turning until the corpse was cold (that is, if temperatures are reasonably cool). It takes at least an hour after death for the z-pathogen to do its work.

    I know that this means that Rick was mooning over Shane's body for an incredibly long time, but he's like that.

    Lori had long enough to weigh the risks, but I'm not inclined to think she did so. Not a big one for thinking things over, our Lori.

    Actually, I think Shane turned pretty quick it didn't even seem like an hour, it seemed more inmediate like Milton and Merle, it took a day for Amy and it took hours for Jim.

    I know, that's why I made the comparisons with Shane Milton and Merle, and Jim and Amy.

    Lori only tried to save Hershel to get another chance to make out with another man. If it was Maggie or someone, she would've been like "Uh, I have to go iron the clothes."
