Warning: Spoilers!

From the article:

I’ve noted before that the women on the show are given the rough end of the character development stick. Lori is shrill to the point of unlikability. Carol is almost entirely defined by her role as a mother. Andrea’s righteous grief over her sister’s death was twisted into making her almost entirely unsympathetic for much of the season. (Not that T-Dog’s plot line is a richly mined depth either.) The women do stupid things. They get regulated to the sidelines. They go into comas from stress. They get inconveniently pregnant. No one did the laundry this episode, but on the same day the survivors slaughter their former family members and neighbors at the barn, they cook a formal sit-down meal where Shane sits at the head of the table. This would be a perfectly OK occasion to point the gang at the paper plates and make them cook their own goddamn food.
