  • That's not Lee is it? Lol

    -_-

  • Carl's a good kid.
    He's growing up in a tough world.

    Okay, dont get in a huff, lol.

    And yeah, I remember health class too. When I was in 3rd grade, someone asked me if i was still a virgin, so yeah, I get it. Kids know way too much these days. It still sounds strange to hear from young kids your age, but that's just me. Don't get all offended.

    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

    That's actually very unfair.
    Carl was just 11 years old.
    He was just a little kid, and he's not going to have the experience of an adult.
    It TAKES TIME for people to grow and mature.

    And as far as Carl being whiny, Carl loved Dale, and inadvertently getting him killed is sure to traumatize him.
    Same thing when Rick was forced to kill Shane, and Carl was forced to put Shane down after he re-animated.
    So your calling Carl retarded; and whiny, is actually quite cruel.

    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.

  • Out of all the pictures, why did you choose that one. I'm cackling omg.

    I don't hate Carl, like any other preteen kid he is just annoying as hell sometimes. Carl was a little shit in season 2. Still kind of whiny in season 3. I think he's matured a lot in season 4-5 for the most part. In one episode of season 4, his whole "I'm a badass, I don't need anyone, my Dad is such a fuckup, it's all his fault" bravado is demolished completely when he is forced to do something on his own. It was glorious.

  • He exaggerates Carl completely, he tries way too hard. Then other times he doesn't try hard enough, he's isn't consistent. He's not a bad actor by any means, but he's just not consistent he sometimes does good but other times just fails.

    I'm not gonna lie I'm happy Chanler Riggs playing Carl, but sometimes he can be irritating.

    What do you think he should be doing differently?

  • Who, Carl/Chandler? I think he's cute for a kid, I wouldn't say hot though. I mean, the actor's only 15 I think.XD

    he's hot :&

  • I haven't seen the show, but I really like Carl in the comics.

  • I like him he's bad ass.

  • Cause he's a betch.

  • Idk but I actually like Carl.

  • i'm only 14 ;)

    probably the most true comment ive ever read

  • for me we learned sex ed in grade five, but it wa a private christian school so they wanted to drive their stupid ideas about sex into our brains as early as possible however i still dount many kids under ten would know all about sex, id say nowadays it is definantly common for 11-12 year olds to know, also in terms of sexuality, if you like the same sex even a bit, you usually know when you're really young, you just don't understand it fully

    KCohere posted: »

    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.

  • Yeah his actor is only like three months older than me so its not a big deal if i say hes hot :p

    I dont like him so much since the scene at season 4 when rick is sleeping and carl says "I wish you were dead!" I dont hate him but I dont like him either,neutral.

  • Literally.

    If Lori wouldn't of had sex with Shane, he probably wouldn't of been like that in the first place. She kind of screwed him over.

  • Dale's look is what made the show amazing

  • He didnt say I wish you were dead. He said I'd be fine if you died, as in, "I can take care of myself, survive without you." That pretty much broke down when tried to do just that and made so many mistakes he almost got himself killed. He clearly loves his dad a lot, he was just in a bad place then with everything that happened, they lost the prison, thought the baby was dead. That's another scene thats a direct nod to the comic.

    How did this conversation Veer so Drasticallee!

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

  • Well all im saying is if you're going to say other peoples names suck, then dont get so butthurt when others do the same to you

  • You change Clem's personality in Season 2. You can either make her "irritating" or nice. Coral's personality is determined and he is far badass than Clem.

    He's just irritating, plain and simple. Nothing like our dear Clemmy.

  • So you wanted to freak me out? Very thoughtful of you.

    Oh ok, that makes sense then lol. See, I'm 20, so at first I was kinda like "how old is this person...?"XD

    i'm only 14

  • Yep, you're in the clear. For some reason I thought you guys were my age lol

  • When i was 13 I was Super Nintendo

    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.

  • Lol xD

  • I like Carl's comic version. That Carl is pretty badass. The TV Carl.....eh. He should have listened a little more often. Sometimes he gets on my nerves, but for the most part I don't think he's horrible. He's COMPLETELY different from his comic version. That's true for a ton of characters. I like Carol's TV version WAY better than her comic version.

  • I don't care much for the comic Carl.

  • Bloody hell, all boys my age seem to care about is getting laid! There's two girls at my school that I'm friends with (one of whom I have a huge crush on), and there's always somebody saying "Get that p*****!" It's stupid. It's not like I talk to girls just to bang them for fuck's sake.

  • I can understand why some people disliked him in Seasons 1&2. But I will say that kid's don't know any better, even in a Zombie Apocalypse. Some kids like to prove how tough and reliable they are, especially to their parents and friends. Carl learns that the hard way with the deaths of Dale and Shane.
    I did start to warm up to him in later Seasons. But he still has a lot to learn. He's still reckless and arrogant, unlike our favourite , Clementine.

  • I love Carl so much, like damn son. And he's a cutie.
