Sorry, didn't see this till just now. I've been watching since season 1, a huge fan of the show. Bot a comic book reader at all. Season 1 and 2 were easily my favorite. Season 3 was good, liked the prison and the run in with The Governor. I guess, getting most characters back stories, 4 seasons in is what is making me lose interest. I hated Darly at the start, then became a fan of his when he went looking for Carol's daughter, but not i'm getting back to dislikig him.

Why?
I still like him, but was a bit disappointed when he answered the door in the last episode, without seeing who was there..
Now he's acting like a sugar tit..I'm thinking he comes back though.

I have seen every episode.

Season 1 was very good.
Season 2 was the best of the series thus far.
Season 3 was terrible, the prison and governor to me got very boring.
Season 4 so far has been better than season 3 but only because I didn't like season 3. I don't like that we have to go a few episodes without seeing characters.

I've bought every song they have used and use them for running I run a lot through the trees and trails so the music always goes fantastic with scenery

The music selection is pretty fantastic

I think that was intentional though. Showing Daryl had fallen back into a normal world if only for a few hours. He's been the man-at-arms forever for the group. I'm sure he takes some pride it, but I'm sure it's also exhausting.

Just goes to show though... you can't dilly dally with "making a move" in the zombie apocalypse.

Agreed. I bought that single and listened to it roughly 20 times today.

Hard to say which season I liked the best. I liked them all. Season 1 was only 6 episodes so it had a bit of an unfair advantage of not requiring as much filler.

Season 2 was slow at times. It had a bit too much Lori and Andrea. Some good character development though. It had my 2 favourite scenes in the entire series, Shane turning on Otis and Sophia coming out of the barn. It started a bit in Season 1 but I loved how season 2 showed a pre-apocalypse hero like Shane gradually turn into a post-apocalypse villain, while Daryl went the other way. Shane's turn was very believable too and really made you think if you would have done the same thing to Otis if you were in that situation. I liked the Governor and look forward to other villains but he was just randomly evil and psychotic. They tried to make him somewhat human so we could relate to him but I don't think it was nearly as well done as it was with Shane in season 2.

I've watched every episode since season one, and still love it.
I like how they're going from group to group, even though there's a scene here or there they could do without(filler). I like to know who the characters were before the walkers took over.
I'm a simple man..lol

Same here. We've seen a bit of that but it would be cool if they would do more. Problem is that was LOST's thing, so I think they are trying to avoid overdoing that.

Now that episode was MUCH better! As much as it sucks seeing a little kid die, what Carol did, was best for everybody. Especially after hearing all that she did in the prison.

After last week the decision to have an episode that was a flat out comedy was risky but it really worked! Hilarious

I can't believe they did it!

When it happened in the comics (different, but essentially the same), I thought there was NO way they would do it on the show. Even though I predicted Lizzie would kill Mika, I was still totally floored upon the reveal.

Damn this show pushes the limits!

Pretty great episode. Felt bad for Mika. I actually thought Carol was going to kill Lizzie earlier in the episode. Too bad she didn't.

Nice George/Lenny moment between Carol/Lizzie. ;)

It had to be done, it was only going to get worse.
