  • If i was female i'd be a lesbian.

    I didn't think of teenage girls watching it. I'm sure many do, my bad. I don't understand why most girls go for the most girly looking guys...maybe theyre all secret lesbians? Damn haha

  • Wait, why am I'm thumbing this up? I'm totally love the noonas.

    I'm a boy too! I can't help loving his beauty, i mean god he is so GD attractive. His pasty child face, i mean what woman wouldn't want to get down with this hot stud.

  • Actually, I don't know why, but I liked Becca a lot more. As Shel, I felt like I had to try and keep her from being too corrupted by the violence around her. For Carl it's like 'oh God, shut up.' Probably because as player character Becca is my little sister whereas Carl is just some kid.

    Exactly!

  • Its nothing personal, its just that he's kinda of gay.

  • I'm 13 and I watch it. :P And even though I'm Bi, I'm not really into girl looking guys for some reason. I like feminine girls, but guy looking girls and tomboys are still good to me.

  • he's hot :&

  • He acts older when the situation calls for it, just like Clem. His dad gives him that responsibility. He hasn't done anything I would consider as him trying to act too old or oit of his capability.

    I see fans of the game say this all the time however they think Clem, who is far younger than Carl is a badass for acting older than she is, kinda hypocritical

  • Only if you're older than 14.

    Also isn't Carl a bit too young to fangirl over? Bit paedophilic?

  • You're bi? You're 13.

    Yeah, he's a little kid. They make mistakes and do dumb things. He's grown from it, which I think is most important.

    He did everything wrong until Season 4 and he started listening to his dad. Hopefully he will be better this season.

  • Didn't know they were mutually exclusive.

  • I disagree. I think he is a kid struggling with having to sometimes be a man and how to put those two sides of himself together. He and Clem are a lot alike.

    Carl has no personality he is nothing more than a plot device that stirs up conflict in the group. Unlike Clementine

    And when you were 13, what sex did you choose? I know I had the hugest crush on my female history teacher, probably only matched my junior year of high school and my first year of grad school, but I don't remember choosing that...

  • I was just going to say that! He got Dale killed :(((

    He's a little whine and a shit at times, gotten kinda better now and he also got Dale killed by being a retard. R.I.P Dale. - We all loved you.

  • I don't hate Carl, i just dislike how Chanler Riggs portrays the character.

  • I don't like him because I don't think Chandler Riggs is a good actor and I don't think Carl is believable as a kid. I still remember that scene in the barn with the prisoner kid and Carl shows up out of nowhere then says "Do it dad. Do it" while nodding his head. I still remember when he was throwing rocks at a zombie and Dale got killed. I remember that scene where Rick, Carl and Hershel were on the highway and Chandler Riggs exhibited full use of the "acting arm." I remember seeing an entire episode about him and how he was a cocky brat who ate an entire tub of chocolate on a rooftop (he kinda redeemed himself later). Basically I have a bad pre determined opinion about him. I love when he gets as little lines as possible almost like Bishop on NCIS.

  • probably the most true comment ive ever read ;)

    he's hot :&

    tv show bandwagon i guess he WAS annoying at the start but he is fine now people just don't move on i guess no matter what you say they aren't going to kill him off hopefully some of the hate dies down once negan comes in because personally i think this is where carl really shines in the comic

  • If you dont like him you're a pretend bread man

    "You'll get a funeral if you don't wise up and call me CARL POPPA" XD I don't hate him, used to, though, but I ended up liking him by the end of Season 4.

  • At the Alexandria safe zone I think, which doesn't come into the comics that long after the prison falls. Walkers break in and someone starts shooting at random and accidentally hits Carl in the eye and takes out a portion of his face.

    Carl loses his eye? How?

  • a horde gets into the alexandria safe zone and while they are walking through it carl accidently gets shot

  • It's unrealistic that Carl survived that, especially when you consider the situation they were in.

  • Eh never really liked him not cause he's a kid just never grew on me I guess.

    yea i know he did go into a coma for a while though and lost some of his memory the way they explained it was that it only just missed his brain or some shit but they couldn't find out if there was any damage until he woke up i think it has been a while since i have read this part

  • I love your Lee avatar.

    I was just going to say that! He got Dale killed ((

  • Coming from a guy with the name Kenny sucks, that means so much...

  • He was alright in Season 1, he didn't bother anyone and wasn't annoying. Season 2 is where I started to dislike him, then Season 3 is where I started to hate him. He just always did stupid shit, never listened to anybody, etc. Well at least he fixed himself in Season 4, where I don't mind his character again.

  • -_-

  • "You're too young to know your sexuality." said no one ever to the straight 13 year old girl who obsesses over One Direction.

    You're bi? You're 13.

  • Im just saying it's funny that someone that young even knows what that means, but I guess I dont want to think about how much kids that young know about sex these days. I have nephews a few years younger and the thought makes me shudder.

  • What do you think he should be doing differently?

    Carl is irritating at times, don't dislike him though, CORAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAL

  • Do you know what they taught me in 7th grade health class? "Use condoms." my health teacher said, showing us a picture. She then open up our health books and showed us exactly where the condoms go. Besides, I walked in on my parents when I was 5 and they explained that that was how babies were made.
    Besides, now that girls my age are getting pregnant, they think it's useful. Also, my sexuality has nothing to do with wanting to have sex - I get crushes on girls and guys. So I'm Bi. That's it.

  • Yea that moment was extremely unrealistic, in real life he would be dead.
