The previews walk again...

...even after so much turkey over the holidays...


I saw the previews for this new episode...and I thought "wait, how?"

reason: The village of survivors (formerly led by the illusion we called Lancelot) is brought back from the dead...and their reviving looks distinctly like zombies.

Question is - are they the brain-seeking killer zombies of the last decade? or are they the black-and-white movie zombies who could work a plantation as well as anyone else (just without free will) ? or are they the legends of the zombi of Haiti?

or was the preview a red herring to trick us all?

I'm just going to leave this thought here, which occurred to me while reading this post and how everyone's saying that they established that magic can't bring back the dead:

Just because the characters say it's true, doesn't mean it is. It could just mean that no one who has tried has ever succeed, and so everyone believes that it's not possible. Or, conversely, it could mean that you can't bring them back whole and as they used to be. Thus, zombies, because as we keep hearing "Magic always comes with a price."

And seriously, between this and the Walking Dead, I just know what's going to be in my nightmares tonight.

ahh...sort of like early statements of its (nearly) impossible to cross from world to world - and following that up with a whole host/bevy of world-crossing objects?

>Or, conversely, it could mean that you can't bring them back whole and as they used to be.
ah, so it wasn't so much Daniel got an attitude from the new heart (and the trauma of Cora)...it was also the fact you mention about not being able to bring them back as they were.

> Thus, zombies, because as we keep hearing "Magic always comes with a price."
good point.

Well, obviously I was wrong about the zombies in the episode, but that's still my personal head-canon regarding Daniel.
