Source:Vulture It's nothing new when TV shows drags out a plotline in order to create a satisfying payoff for fans when that storyline is finally wrapped up. However, fans of Season 1 of The Walking Dead were accustomed to the blistering pace of the first season, which saw numerous locations and Rick's group depicted as a post-apocalyptic
Oregon Trail, zombie killing caravan. The folks over at Vulture apparently share the pain and annoyance of the show's fans as they edited the first 7 episodes of Season 2 to show that this particular plotline could be shown in a single episode, and in under 2 minutes.
By now, I'll assume all of you saw the finale and are aware of Sophia's fate. However, this raises more questions as it's rather hard to swallow the fact that Hershel didn't know that the little zombie girl in his barn could potentially be the little girl Rick's camp was looking for. And if, as some have speculated, Sophia simply went into the barn seeking shelter after separating from Rick and was unaware of the zombie inhabitants, someone would've noticed here while they were doing the bizarre farm chore of feeding the zombies livestock. Hopefully this question is cleared up in February when The Walking Dead returns and hopefully it doesn't take the rest of Season 2 to do it.
