I was hoping they'd go further from the comics - not because the story is bad, but because I'd like them to go in a different direction and do less rehashing. Yes, there were clear changes, and there is room for more changes than we realize there were, but I would have loved to have seen something entirely different, like them being overrun by the 7500 zombie herd just as Rick walks down the hill early in the episode...

2020 will be the year I gave up all hope.

The show writers love Daryl, not even Rick gets to be a badass and he is the main character.

Tale, I think you're going to see things differently over the next 6 or so episodes.

Ok, wow.
I know people are gushing about the latest episode/series but I really couldn't get into it. Hershel, psycho-kid and Carl are the only characters that have depth amongst the prison-dwellers. Even Glen has gone from badass to non-entity. Yeah Daryl has good writers/action but even he is fading into the background to be dragged out when something needs to be done or "words". Rick needs to get killed off to give the others more screen time.

I've had a bit of a marathon, watching the the last four episodes of the half-season over the course of two evenings, and I have to say this has gone back to being a great show. Possibly better than it's ever been. The Governor's episode was brilliantly written and acted and the big finale was tense and action packed. As others have said, the Governor became a far more interesting character this time.

I hated the last episode, I think I am pretty much done with this show. The first episode with the Governor was great and had the potential to lead onto something excellent, but then they threw it all away the next week.

no. It was perfect timing and in character.

No Nerf, but I put a link to this very thread and I said that you all can guarantee for my purity. I even mentioned your case, and see if they can take a look at your lawn from a Michigan perspective.

Holy mother of Christ, I haven't laughed that hard in probably more than 20 fucking years. I have tears streaming down my face and am nearly puking from all the spasms in my abdomen. I don't know what it says about me, but that is the funniest goddamn shit ever. I have to stop looking at it soon, or I will start coughing up blood or something.

When she crossed over, she was just a ship. But when she came back... she was bullshit!

I think a few of you are missing the point on the Governor: He got his shot at redemption, and he blew it. The writers deliberately set up the redemption trope, and the Governor just couldn't change. As soon as he had what he'd claimed to have wanted, he burned it down with short-sighted power-grabs.

It's not missing the point, that aspect was just poorly handled. If that's what the writers were going for, that's not an arc you squeeze into three episodes.

The best I can say about this arc is that (hopefully) it's over.

I thought it was done well in the short episode span that they took. Do we really need the governor plotting, killing people, making them trophies, and twirling his mustache while everyone else stands by clueless on what to do for the rest of the season? Because that was last season and I was cheering when it was over. Hopefully now they can move on and work on a different arc.

No chance Asskicker is gone. Not a chance. This is still network tv. You gotta have hope somewhere. T[/spoiler]

There was no impact when Sophia emerged... oh she died and just so happened to meet up with Harshels crew. Ain't it hilarious she was in the barn the entire time??
