Hey!! I’m starting this blog new. That means I won’t post/reblog anything here anymore. From now on this will be quodls and I’m just moving to another blog (url stays the same) here. I unfortunately learned that I can’t change primary blogs so this blog will continue to appear in followers lists or among likes etc.

S1 Carol was brave, selfless, empathetic, and resilient - not “weak”
S2 Carol was brave, selfless, empathetic, and resilient - not “useless”
S3 Carol was brave, selfless, empathetic, and resilient - not “cowardly”
S4 Carol was brave, selfless, empathetic, and resilient - not “cold-hearted”
S5 Carol was brave, selfless, empathetic, and resilient - not “crazy”
It’s who she is. Brave, selfless, empathetic, and resilient. It’s who she’s always been - she just keeps blossoming.
I adore the recent new flood of articles praising Carol left and right, and I swoon right out of my chair when she’s called “unkillable” or “the most important character on TWD.”
However, I can’t lie. Within the past few days I have seen so many derogatory terms used to describe Carol before her so-called “transformation,” (I never saw it as a transformation — I’d use the word “evolution”) and it’s causing me to see a whole lot of red.
So can we all just pause for a second to realize that by the time S1 was over, Carol had:
I’m not even gonna type out some of the words I’ve seen used to describe S1 Carol in the past few days, and by people who are actually praising the character.
But if you’re gonna bash S1 Carol, there’s no way in hell you deserve S5 Carol.

friendships between women are often the deepest and most profound love stories, but they are often discussed as if they are ancillary, “bonus” relationships to the truly important ones. women’s friendships outlast jobs, parents, husbands, boyfriends and lovers. [inspiration]

Between everything I quickly want to acknowledge that everytime Melissa McBride talks about abuse she uses the word survivors- not only for her character but in general.
She does not shy away from the subject and points out the strengths of those who survived it, and Carol herself stands for so much and she knows it and says and I adore her for it.
praxid replied to your post:ummm so how much do the actors know about next...
My guess would be that they know next to nothing before they received the first scripts. For example, Melissa didn’t know Carol was the muderer until she received the script where Carol confesses.
yes that’s right. i was just wondering because the way lennie and melissa are talking about their characters makes it seem like they know some stuff we’ll see.
ummm so how much do the actors know about next season already
