Show needs more dinosaurs.

zombie dinosaurs or regular?

Zombie dinosaurs. But in a disappointing twist... they're all herbivores.

I mistook "more dinosaurs " to be more Herschel's .. where frost was going with it.

 

[Frostillicus]

No, real dinosaurs. Preferably not zombies, but I'm not that picky.

 

[(HULK)]

The governor promises teradactyl vs zombies mma matches.

Rick will use brontosaurus poo as fertilizer.

 

[Maelstrom]

Couple thoughts:

1. People are complaining the Governor isn't twisted enough? He keeps zombie heads, rapes captives, creates zombie MMA, and kills for no apparent reason. I thought the dude was plenty over the top.

2. I take it none of you have ever been to a prison. I've been to several and the fence lines are enormous. No freaking way they could ever build a trench around the fence line in a few months. And it would probably not be very effective at all, as Stu pointed out. The car idea does seem viable, though.

3. Michonne's motivations were obvious. The Governor essentially stole her best friend (Andrea) and she picked up quickly he was a bad dude.

I don't remember him raping any of the captives. He made Maggie get topless, but anything else is your imagination and was denied in the show. He was extremely brutal in the comics, and that is why many feel he was kind of watered down.

I don't have it anywhere near the best of the series, but it was definitely the best of the season.

It can't be a great episode when it's nothing but red shirts dying. The first 5 episodes so far have been the worst of the series.

If you didn't enjoy last nights episode then I think this show has passed you by and it's time to move on..

The virus was a false jeopardy situation and it was obvious the main characters weren't going to die from it (except I thought they'd use it as a way for Herschel to make a heroic sacrifice for Glenn). I'll keep watching but this is an awfully cheesy show.

Now it's cheesy?

 

[Insein]

Thought this episode was easily the best of the season.

The only problem I had was the disjointed feel of watching all hell breaking loose in the prison block juxtaposed by the father/son moments outside. Rick did a little too much "That's my boy" staring while zombies were tearing down the fence. Probably should have stayed focused in that scene and reflected afterwards.

A little nitpicky but otherwise great episode with an excellent teaser at the end.

 

[JoeSteeler]

for those of you that watch Talking Dead, Chris Hardwick's dad died yesterday. he said he is still doing talking dead tonight.

 

[badmojo1006]

OK, it has been a couple of years, where are they getting the oxygen tanks?

 

[mr roboto]

Did you miss it? They stole a bunch from the hospital.

I posted this about 2 seconds before they mentioned it

 

[badmojo1006]

Are we now supposed to feel sympathy for the Governor?

 

[mr roboto]

Are we now supposed to feel sympathy for the Governor?

I like the descent into madness. No sympathy, but at least there's a little bit of depth to the character.

 

[snogger]

Are we now supposed to feel sympathy for the Governor?

not so much sympathy as building depth. He went after losing his family and they are showing that although he was a raving lunatic the way he ran Woodbury, there was a method go his madness. To protect that which he had by any means.

 

[badmojo1006]

Some unique kills tonight. I am guessing the next episode will be Governor-centric also

 

[mr roboto]

One of the best episodes in the last 2.5 seasons IMO.

Are you kidding me? So bad it blows my mind. :X

What? One of the few episodes with some decent development. The gov was a crappy character before. It's far better than the virus/fence/walker fake drama bull#### the last few episodes.

 

[flapgreen]

I agree on the last few episodes, except the last one.

 

[Corporation]

Chris just gave his dad a touching tribute at the end.

 

[prosopis]

Chris just gave his dad a touching tribute at the end.

That was sad

Impressed he could do the show tonight.

 

[HellToupee]

as a stand alone episode it was top notch but it really halted the momentum the show had going

 

[flapgreen]

Couldn't have been more boring tonight. An entire episode of the Guv hanging out with a family and none of the main group. Bad

I must agree with mr roboto.

 

[badmojo1006]

3 more episodes till the mid season break

My guess:

One more Governor episode, taking us up to him standing outside the Prison (Can't decide if he meets up with Carol before this)

then all hell breaks loose in the last two episodes.Walkers and the Governor's group attacking the prison

Carol will probably die and maybe Herschel

 

[BustedKnuckles]

The thread title needs to be changed to THE OFFICIAL WALKING DEAD BASHING THREAD

I'm with you, this was a great episode.

It helped me forget about the first 5 lame episodes this season so to the writers.

I'm with you, this was a great episode.

I also enjoyed it, and I didn't think I would at the beginning.

 

[cstu]

Next week...

"I told you I'd protect you. Now let's go blow up the prison so you have a place to live."

 

[skol asylum]

Interesting that they took a section out of the Rise of the Governor novel and sort of stole from it for this episode. Those that have read it will know what I mean.

 

[skol asylum]

I enjoyed the Governor teaching the kid about using pawns in chess.

 

[Wingnut]

Loved it. This season needed more governor.

[(HULK)]

I enjoyed the Governor teaching the kid about using pawns in chess.

They're soldiers.

It was interesting as he explaining it I was taking it as him rationalizing why he killed all of his Woodbury pawns. And then the girl drew the eyepatch on the king and I was like, okay, way to be overtly obvious show. No subtlety evah!

 

[dhockster]

I loved the Guv's 2 lieutenants leaving him all alone in the middle of the night. If they were going to leave him though, don't you think they would have killed him? After all, they have just seen how crazy he gets when people turn against him.

Enjoyed last nights episode. Thought the nursing home was going to be the place Rick was hospitalized, and featured in one of the webisodes this year. A little disappointed it wasn't

And if they are going to let him live why save him if they find him again?

 

[SmoovySmoov]

So awesome to hear Ben Nichols from Lucero on the show last night. His was the song at the beginning during the Governor's journey. Not only a great singer, but a cool guy, as well. Happy for him.

I took it as they were tired of saving his butt and his nonchalant "if I live I live, if I don't, I don't" attitude.

so they decided to let him fend for himself and if he lived he lived, if he didn't he didn't.

He is weak now, or at least was at that point, and they don't fear him anymore which is evident in the trailers for next week.

what was the name of the song, and any Youtube links to it as I enjoyed it during the episode and would like to hear it san the Guv. in advance.

I took that as two seperate points. The pawn explanation and then showing how the girl has accepted him.

Cool episode. Was weird seeing the governor as an errand boy. Also unsettling constantly trying to determine his intentions. Thought a few times he might take off with with "New Penny". Possibly after letting grandpa eat the other two.

 

[kentric]

Told you he was a nice guy.

 

[(HULK)]

Why did he bang the mom when the hotter sister was also in the back of the truck? Why not both?

 

[Tackling Dummies]

Great character development episode. Awesome zombie kills in the pit, especially the one w/ the bone & jaw/head.

 

[Kraft...]

Why did he bang the mom when the hotter sister was also in the back of the truck? Why not both?

I think they are pretty equal hotness wise

 

[Corporation]

Wasn't the little girl right there with them all? I thought that was creepy in the mom's part.
