That's to be expected. With the midseason finale's that they've been doing, that gives them two times a season to do that to us....

I am entering the season premiere contest. If they do not kill the Guv Sunday, my walk on will do an unscheduled assassination in the next season opener.

This! I try not to hold the TV series to the same standards as the book since it's clearly only loosely based on them. That being said, they really dropped the ball with Andrea's character. In the books she's the team sharp shooter and a vital part of the group. IMHO this last season was the worst so far. The build up of of the governor vs rick/prison group vs woodberry group ended in such an anti-climactic fashion. Not to mention the brutal amount of commercials, it felt like the show was getting in the way of a 1 hour ad block lol. Couple that with the short seasons, wait for months, mid season wait for months then short season finale. I think I'm done with the series unfortunately.

Thought it was a damn fine season finale. Really thought they were not in the prison when the Gov and his crew rolled in. Speaking of the Gov...he has completely lost his mind. Didn't it take Andrea forever to grab those pliers? And Carl...WTF??

Carl made a very valid point. They led us to believe he might be losing it, but then he showed us why he was acting the way he is. And IMO, it's valid. He's an angry pre-teen, we all were, but he seems to have developed a pretty good head on his shoulders.

Good Show. I don't know how I feel about Carl becoming this calculated unfeeling stone cold Killer. Andrea was drinving me crazy trying to get the pliers...why she would stop from getting the pliers to talk to Milton is beyond me. If you need to talk to Milton you can still get the pliers while you talk.

Also didn't find it that believable that Andrea couldn't handle 1 walker with a tool in her hand. That woman was a walker killing expert and would have easily disposed of a single walker with a tool in her hand.

The Gov is nuttier than I even imagined.

From a tactical perspective, I am with Carl, I would have shot that kid too. He was told to "drop" the weapon more than once. He doesn't drop it, advances, and makes a gesture like he is going to "hand it over"? Takes a fraction of a second from that position to raise and fire...Carl did the right thing.

I agreed with Carl's big picture analysis of why he did it, but I don't agree that "Carl did the right thing" due to being in danger. Carl and Herschel had the drop on the young man who looked to be afraid for his life (though he was longer to comply than needed). But since the stranger did not make an aggressive move, I disagree that Carl needed to shoot him based on immediate danger.

Carl's formative years are being shaped right now, his reality is quite stark. Lack of empathy for mankind.
