how do you pronounce michonne???

[Awesome!]

I think Kirkman has said he pronounces it like Mishonnay. I go between that and Mishone depending on my mood. I don't know this lady but she needs some more hair for me to feel good about this.

Addressed on last night's Talking Dead.

The host said "mih-shawn" and Kirkman responded with "mih - shown".

I'm in the UK. Which means we're a week behind america. Which means this pretty much spoilt the ending of the episode. Thanks CBR for the kind of typical arrogant, ignorance laced, American jack assery that confirms any and all sterotypes the rest of the world has about you.

[the goddamn batman]

and yet, knowing you're a week behind the American viewing, you checked in on an American run site that's always posted the spoilers/castings (well, the castings they post whenever and spoil shit regardless of: ) on Monday morning and then squarely place the blame on someone else.

congratulations, you've reaffirmed the stereotype of modern-man, who accepts no accountability for their own actions.

Its an American run site that is reporting the news first before someone else beats them to it. You are just looking for an excuse to hate an entire country based on something stupid.

Hi there.

Just to let you know, the world doesn't revolve around you and your needs and desires alone. The resy of the world gets on with their business and don't think about yoiu because we don't know you.

Rather than blaming media sites for presenting media news, how about you use your brain and stay off media news sites if you don't want to read any news relating to new media? Just a thought from me to you to save you getting pointlessly angry at people for doing their jobs because you are deluded enough to think they have to think of you before they do what they do.

This is an America produced show set in America, broadcast first one an American channel for American audiences. This season won't air until the autumn on 5 USA so go dig a hole and wait it in until then, probably best for everyone.

Oh, and I am English too, living in South Norwood, but I am intelligent enough to realise if I go on CBR, Bleeding Cool, Digitalspy, Whatculture or similar sites I will likely find spoilers. So you know what I do? I use common sense and stay away from news sites if I don't want my shows to be spoiled. Self restraint and common sense are not hard to come by or gain.

This confirms my suspicions about myself. Thanks for the spoilers on my personality.
