First of all, I love the flyers behind Doug in the pharmacy in episode 1. There's one that says "Easter Egg Hunt" and one that says "The I.T. Guy". The former references the in-game Doug (and his shirt) and the latter references the real world Doug.

Then there's the movie references in the achievements: Adventures in Babysitting and Guess Who's Coming to Dinner. And of course the Frank Sinatra reference, Goodbye, She Quietly Says.

And given all these references in the achievements, could Hit the Road be a reference to Sam & Max?

You forgot ''You fight like a dairy farmer''

You have a keen eye. It's probably the same model, but it is not Doug. That Zombie wears shoes instead of sandals.

Dammit.

I just spent the last 15 minutes of my life scrolling through walkthroughs, trying to look at Doug's feet... socks and sandals! No wonder the dork had no hope getting away from zombies!

I still can't get the Station Wagon (Ending of Episode 2) stocked by supplies from my head...
I mean, it really resembles to "Organ Trail" by Man who wear many hats. I mean - it's Station Wagon stocked with food and stuff, in the middle of nowhere, without gas and abondoned... So, I guess it is either coincidence that TTG chose Station Wagon and filled it up with supplies or an easter egg

EP4 - Also, it's more of reference - "For whom the bell tolls" cited by Chuck (I know it's from Hemingway, but it is also name of Metallica's song and originally it is a poem from John Donne... so there's that)

Also the mercy kill Lee does with the attic zombie kid awfully reminds me how Rick killed Helen in Pilot/Comicbook; but I see this more of a slight reference than actual easter egg

Shawn (In ep one at hershels farm) is one of the zombies trapped in the barn in the comic and series.

I don't really think that it's an easter egg...

And, i don't remember well, I think it's when you are in Crawford, Molly said something like, That's what i called poetic justice.

That is from BTTF-1 when mcflies go to the "dark" future, and the guy said : Two mcflies with the same gun, that's what i called poetic justice

That isn't true, because if you saved Doug and he gets shot, the same zombie is shown, so it can't be Doug if he didn't die ;D

It's Doug's twin brother.

Poetic justice is just a literary device often used in the late 1600's....
It was really popular in shakespeare's works.

One of the easter eggs that people forgot is if you tell kenny to shoot duck he instead walks away, leaving duck to die and become a walker.

[Devlonir]

I thought the Duck shooting scene is actually also a reference to Rick shooting Hannah. When I saw that scene I immediately had to think about that scene in the series. Especially the camera angle it is shown from is exactly the same.

And yeah, also the kid in the attic and how Lee talks to him reminded me of the same scene..

[Nekrocop]

Kenny in episode 4 makes a reference to the TV show Rick.

Game:
"This boat is an answered prayer. We just gotta push a little bit further."

In the show Rick says almost the same line for the prison.


Also the Star Wars references from Ben and later on Molly.

Actually, Jolene doesn't really know what happened to her daughter, at least, not exactly. The game also implies the bandits took her daughter and gave it to the dairy farm. Andy talks about not keeping Clementine, because she wouldn't offer enough "meat".
