Except, as I said, it implies that he was transformed by outside events and not actually a bad person to begin with. If they wanted to make that arc more convincing, it needed to have the rape played normally, or taken out. Glen Mazzara is playing the Walking Dead as standard television, and that's one of the biggest problems. It's too far adapted to TV.

Showrunners shouldn't stick to what they always do, they should be more focused on bringing the moments of the comic to life. To me those are Carl shooting [human] Shane, Tyreese in the prison (which still could happen), "We are the walking dead!", Lori's death, and Glenn meeting Lucille. So far, they haven't got a single PANEL right.

That issue...

On the bright side there was that one funny Letter Hacks threatening Kirkman about Glenn that was sent by a certain author...

Yeah, I think I posted a transcript somewhere on here. Well worth the read.

I think Andrea is starting to realize how f*kd up the Gov really is, starting with the fish tank zombie head and keeping his zomb daughter locked up with a Jason Vorhees sack on her head. I think she comes to her senses and helps the Dixon Bros to escape and reach the prison, i thought her face expression and panic state when she seen Darryl, could be wrong tho. Anyways Give it up for Tyresse one of my fav char in the comics!!! P.S. top moment in mid-season finale, Michone's sword going thru Penny's head and out her mouth, it was Beast

It was a great episode, of course any speculation about Daryl was quickly erased by his appearance in the preview for the next half but still, it shall be an interesting journey.

The worst thing about the TV-only watchers is when they get agressive or mad when you explain how kirkman's works go. "Wtf?! This is what he does? fuck this show. I'll keep living in my igronant bubble that Daryl and Shane are immortal."

.. .. Really.

In unrelated news I think Shane deserved to die. There I said it.

I'm not sure I like this whole splitting seasons in two thing, I'd rather they took a little longer in releasing the entire season, like every other show does. Having said that, so far I've liked this season, a huge improvement over the second's plot that would not advance under any circumstance.

About the governor, I like the approach they took for the show more than the one Kirkman took for the comic. Oh, and I also never liked Tyreese and hated everything that happened after the prison. And I like TV show Andrea. You can throw rocks at me now

a lot of american shows have mid season break, it's better than English TV that only has like 6 episodes in an entire series (or season for Americans )

I've never seen any series with a mid-season break. But I suppose it could be because I'm from Argentina, and here they tend to arrive months later than in the States, so they don't split them. To my knowledge, The Walking Dead is the only series without that delay (only two days later), so it's the only series that gets a mid-season break here.

That's my theory at least, I didn't know mid-season breaks were common :/

Of course he did. But did he deserve the comic death or tv lifespan?

I also don't like the comic post-prison. I think it was best mid-prison and hasn't beat that arc.
