Cheerful Walking Dead Mid-Season Finale Unlikely

Like usual, tough times appear to be ahead for our heroes. This time around though, the ending to this season's mid-season finale had actor Norman Reedus (Daryl) apparently crying for an hour straight before filming the scene - via TV Guide:

Reedus describes the hour's final moments as so "devastating" that they unleashed an intense wave of feelings before the cameras rolled. "I sat on an apple box with my head between my legs and just bawled for an hour," he says. "I really wanted not to tear up during [the scene] — I wanted to be like I had wasted every tear in my body before we started shooting — so I just sat there and cried and cried and cried.

The theory has been for a while now that Carol is going to be the next one to become walker-bait, and the recent Carol-centric episode, plus Norman Reedus having a "devastating" scene seems to support that theory.

We'll see if Team Rick makes it through the face off with Team Hospital intact!

Stay tuned for our after show write up tomorrow morning!
