Did you watch?

For a show on a non premium cable channel, I thought it was very good. I never read the comic, so I don't know how it compares, but I'll be watching every Sunday. pisses me off that I don't get AMC in HD though.

Did anybody really think that was the end of the Governor storyline?

I didn't mean it to be a spoiler (though I realize was a spoiler, but, then again, the thread's title says 'spoilers'.. my bad), but I figured everybody was on the same page there.

I was rather hopeful they'd eventually find him in some diminished mental state like Morgan but surrounded by all his zombie disciples in cages...

Yea, I don't think it is too crazy to see him coming back...I think it is obvious that they would bring him back because his story didn't even conclude AND they mention finding him ALL THE TIME.

I hope they keep tabs on him and on Carol...that way if they want they could completely kill off most of the cast and reboot mid season with people we already know!

I agree.

I'm just so tired of all of the psycho-babble BS. I hate it that the writers have all of the main characters talking about their feelings every episode. Daryl isn't supposed to talk about his feelings. He's Daryl, for christ's sake! He's badass, sexy and a great shot with a crossbow. He's a survivor that's tough as nails on the outside and every once in awhile, he's zen.

That's it. Nothing more. I didn't mind seeing him fall apart when he had to kill his brother but other than that, I want him tough, dirty and splitting a walker skull while wearing a poncho. laugh out loud
How has that really changed? laugh out loud If anything, we see Daryl the leader and Daryl the person when around Michonne. Still as badass as he always is and probably more efficient about it too.

My prediction, final episode of the season, in the last 5-10 minutes we'll see the Governor with some cooked up revenge plot that will lead into next season.

MAJOR story in the comics, but not as villainous or profane as Negan (if the show lasts that long, you're in for a treat). But they've veered so far off the trail it's not worth mentioning.

Nope. Not me, at least.

I dunno, maybe I just want him to wear less clothing. laugh out loud Maybe just the poncho. A shorter poncho.

Aww hell, no poncho. Roll

Amen. It's barely recognizable anymore.

Well let's hope they don't do a deep GA in the middle of winter season where he has to cover up (nope, not seen that yet) because that would SUCK for you.

"Champing" is the original term, but since "champ" is no longer in the daily lexicon and "chomp" still is, "chomping" has become accepted. Wink

And that quote will be the show's undoing I believe. Ratings are great but if you lose the core followers from the fanbase because they can't tell what they're watching anymore and can't stand the soap operatic plots then yeah the train could come derailed and the show ends much like True Blood will.

Agree big time.

I have read all the comics and all three (okay, 2.5) novels, and I often have ZERO idea what's going to happen in any given episode.

I still enjoy watching, but it's getting frustrating not knowing where they're going.
