The Walking Dead: 10 Characters Who Stuck Around Too Long
5. Lizzie Samuels
Played by: Brighton Sharbino
First appearance: 30 Days Without An Accident (S4E1)
Last appearance: The Grove (S4E14)
The start of Season 4 introduced so many new prison characters in one go, and it was annoying to have them rammed down the viewer's throat. A female Damian Throne from The Omen, Lizzie was the kind of kid you wouldn't arrange a playdate with.
Perhaps it was her pouty lips, perhaps it was her obsession with the dead, or perhaps...it was her gutting her own sister like a fish to have a walking dead playmate?
She fluctuated between seeing the walkers as an actual threat and treating them as a plaything. When Carol Peletier adopted the girls as her own, the whole happy families storyline was cute for a brief period,
It was another rehashed storyline, with Lizze and Mika filling a Sophia-shaped hole in Carol's life, but the show kept Lizzie around as a demon child for a bit longer. To be fair, there was the superb episode "The Grove" - If only she had "looked at the flowers" a bit sooner!
