in the novels ... there is a lull in "action" ... actually happened before the woodbury/prison showdown

made for alot of character development

you think this is possible in episodic tv? or do we all need to have our pound of human to human combat induced flesh

they are going 7 seasons with 4 to go. if they want to do more character development they better get on it. but they seem to want to keep that mystery make you fall for the characters and get you in the feels when they take them out.

I doubt we get too much into any pasts

the reason why I brought it up was last nights episode felt very "Lost"-like to me

right down to the closing music which was almost identical sounding

I thought Carl was right in shooting that kid as well. The way the kid held the gun out for Carl to take it, instead of dropping it like he was told to do, made me think Carl was going to get grabbed by him.

Wasn't too thrilled about the prison shootout, or lack thereof..But I guess it did show that the Woodbury group was not an army like the Gov thought. Stupid of Rick not to bring those vehicles left by the Gov back to the prison, especially the Army truck.

Sure hope they brought every last can of lima beans from Woodbury..a lot of mouths to feed now.

I fully assume they will get the trucks and loot Woodbury off-camera. Seems a no-brainer to me.

What did they say about Tyreese on The Talking Dead?

I liked the finale. Great opener, decent the rest of the way. Andrea dying suprised me, I thought she would get free right at the last second. I thought the Governor would return right at the end mimicking something from the comics.

The real question is if they will gather the bodies from the Gov's shooting spree and bury them in the cemetary they have begun. The new Team-Rickers knew these people. They would want these people to be remembered.

With the Gov and 2 men with him, they would have needed to do that at the time they left with the residents, and maybe they did with the food. It would be dumb to go back and loot, to much risk of ambush.

I thought I heard them mention something about him being a football player, fullback I believe. If they said at what level he played I missed it. They also mentioned how his 1 weakness in the new world seems to be his aim but that he is otherwise cut out for it without having to resort to the cut-throat stuff.

That's cool. I think they said the same thing in the books. Its been a while - I cant remember.

Yeah since they never really talked about his past on the show, I figured they probably got that information from the books. Guess we'll have to wait until next season or longer to see if they mention anything about it on the show.

In the books, he played 1 season for the Falcons (in '98, I believe he said). He was no good, though, and hurt himself in practice trying to impress the coach.

FYI,

For those that have not read the books yet, they are all (or at least most of them) on youtube. I like the way ComicBooksAlday does them, personally, but TheWalkingDead08 does a good job, too.
