Totally agree, I was expeting the kid to raise up and shoot

About time.

Glad Andrea is gone, I was really surprised they killed her off since she is such a big part in the comics.

I knew they wouldn't kill the gov, I expect he will die in the 3rd episode of season 4.

Not really much else to say about the season finale, it wasn't a very spectacular finale imo.......I have to say I am not that excited about season 4 as I was about season 3

I can't imagine the Gov is going to have anyone to rally behind him now. As soon as the town knows what he did, he'll be on the run.

Carl maybe did'nt have to kill that kid. But he is right, Ricks a F**kup.
I'm Glad Andrea is dead, she was an idiot PICK UP THE PLIERS! even Nerdy McGeekerson had to tell her to shut up and move it.
LOVE this show but someone in the beginning of this thread told it true when they said the group was making bad decisions from the start.

Wouldn't be as much fun if they made the correct decisions, I don't reckon.

By the end of the epi, both the Gov and Carl appear to have the same philosophy. Maybe Carl was influenced more by Shane than his Dad.

But since the stranger did not make an aggressive move, I disagree that Carl needed to shoot him based on immediate danger.

I wouldn't expect any less.

Yep. Same with the guy with the AK47 pointed at the Gov. If I saw someone shooting down People like that, Lights out mother ****er.

I wanted Andrea dead at the start of the season. I've always hated her.

That's what I was thinking. Shane would've said drop it twice, and then dropped him.

Considering the guy's hand was not on the trigger (I could be recalling this wrong), I still disagree that Carl had to do it because they were in danger. I don't disagree with anything Carl said to Rick though.

We can agree to disagree. All training and case law I have been exposed to point to it being a good shoot.

Enjoyable finale! Glad they kept the Gov around, he's a great villain

Lookin' forward to October and Season 4

I agree. This is not the campus of Ohio State University during present day. This is the
Zombie Apocalypse. You don't apply the same standards, you do not take near the same
5HI+ off of people, you are ordered to drop a gun by a person holding a gun, you either
comply or shoot first. He did neither. I have yet to SEE the episode in question though,
lol. I will agree later, too, I imagine.

Agreed. In that (lawless apocalyptic ) scenario, if I say DROP IT and I get a "stall tactic" I am immediately suspicious. Is there a partner of his, in the woods and this guy is buying time to keep me occupied while his buddy sights me in to pick me off ? Is there a Zombie coming up behind me?

Considering it was pretty much contact distance and many teenagers reflex speed, better safe than sorry, considering da Zomboid Pocolypth and all dat.

ky70 · 04-03-2013, 10:15 PM

Carl's action makes or a great debate, but I think the writers intended for the audience to view Carl's action as "wrong". I say that because of Herschel's perspective on what took place that he shared with Ric.

themoneycollector · 04-04-2013, 10:59 AM

Woodbury storms the prison, Rick's group leaves the back entrance and scares them all into leaving. Unspectacular.....no.....not even cliche....
