Well, I for one am getting heartily bored with the current situation on The Walking Dead. The basic premise is okay, I guess, but the whole feud with the Governor is being dragged out way, way too long. And the latest turn, promising unbridled violence againse a woman is pretty disgusting. Will someone just kill this guy and get it done with? Please?

While David Morrissey is a fine actor, his accent as the Governor has me cringing every episode.

I do think they have to wrap things up with the Governor soon, but I quite enjoyed last night's episode.

I thought it was a pretty good episode as well.
He is a good villain.

I like this whole "warring states" storyline between the prison and Woodbury, and last night's episode wase terrific. It just keeps getting better.

I don't see how Milton will get out of there with his hide intact, after last night. I'm starting to like this guy.

I suspect dear ol Gov is going to die soon.

Methinks the Gov's time is about up also. Milton will probably try to do what Andrea couldn't/didn't but will pay the price for it.

I thought the most recent episode was very good despite it being little more than Rick and the Governor talking.

The real story was in how Daryl and Martinez connected as does Herschel and Milton. All this shows that the common "soldier" has more in common than the leaders who are only fighting because of their own personal interests.

In the end: Rick and Governor are the ones at odds but Daryl, Martinez, Herschel and Milton pay the price and could probably peacefullly coexist on their own.

Seriously, would you take your most usefull,(medical) and least usefull,(one leg) to a gangster meet ? !!

In the comic books, the Governor tortures a woman. But it's not Andrea.

Curious to see how the writers resolve this if they want to stick close to the comics.

They're sticking close to the comics? Since when? wink

I suspect that the governor has been bitten but hasn't turned yet. And the whole conversation with Milton about the biters retaining some of themselves, pre-turning, opens the door for the governor to continue to hang around for a long time yet.

ScottWashburn Sponsoring Member of TMP20 Mar 2013 4:23 a.m. PST

I agree with jizbrand. But I see the Governor, his massive ego not accepting the idea of a Woodbury continuing on without him, is now planning a massive Gotterdamerung end for everything. He'll send all his troops off to a mutual annihilation battle with Rick & Co. and then open the barricades and let the walkers into now-defenceless Woodbury. Then he retires to his little torture chamber to enjoy his last hours with Andrea. That would set up a fitting cliffhanger for this next episode and then the season finale can (hopefully) resolve it all.

I enjoy the chapter very much.
I had the idea that Milton is going to kill the governor saving Andrea.


And see this spoiler comment about two dead characters in this season.

PD: By the way, who burned the zombies?.

ScottWashburn Sponsoring Member of TMP20 Mar 2013 5:27 p.m. PST

I'm pretty sure it was Milton who burned the zombies. The governor thinks so, too! :)

Personal logo reeves lk Supporting Member of TMP21 Mar 2013 8:40 a.m. PST

I think it was Martinez or Milton who burned the bodies or someone else out side the town. I mean the exits are garded very well and someone would have seen the vehical leave unless the governor has a secret exit and vehicals that Milton and Martines knows about but other then someone out side the town doing it someone would have seen them leave. Also I too think the Gov has been bitten.

Scott: you are a truly demented soul evil grin. That would be a true jaw-dropping end to the season. I LIKE IT!

Scott, I couldn't agree more. I think not killing the Government at the end of this season was a fail.
