The show isn't as good as it used to be for me. I enjoyed it more when they were dealing with the uncertainty on how to deal with new situations and zombies, now it's all about other living people and the walking dead are actually sidecharacters now you see wandering in the distance and getting the occasional bullet in the head. They aren't even afraid of them anymore. The horror side of the show has been lost. I hope they are forced out of the prison soon, it's a rather boring setting imo, they are too safe. The camp and the farm were far better.

The show started going under after killing off Dale and Shane. I still enjoy it, but it's not the same without them. I'd trade all the Beths and Carols and Michonnes to get them back, pointless characters.

It slowly is turning into a "Family Drama" kind of a show and the way everyone is over respecting Rick grimes is cringeworthy. I mean he is good but he is not God. They behave as if he is the president and they are all subordinates. I hope there is a serious change in the pattern in the coming episodes,

This show is currently going through the "We have no clue where we're going with this" phase, and I'ma smellin' me some stale writin' as characters banter pointless dialogue back and forth. The action has dropped substantially too. Really, how many times do you want to see a zombie with an arrow in it's head? The Guv is a whiny, smaller-than-life villain.

You're not alone thinking that. I just hope it's only a case of calm before the storm and the season will end with some great action and a good setup for the fourth season.

I'm still enjoying the show, but yeah it is looking weird, i thought when Daryl and Merle where gone i thought they would of split the show up and we would of seen Daryl and Merle traveling around, just like when it was Andrea and Michone at the start of the season.

Episode 12 was one of the best in a long time, with Morgan coming back. And to be honest they did that brilliantly, i remember reading the comic and the Morgan bit was just shit, they didn't handle it well at all in the comic, they actually even killed Morgans character he turned out to be very weak and he had about as much to say as T-Dog.

Where in that episode the story was fantastic, the only thing I'm not happy about is Morgan not coming back to the group, that would of been good to see as i do think they are still lacking a character. Also I'm not happy about Tyrese, he was like one of the most awesome characters in the comic, he was even more badass than Daryl, so far he deosn't really seem like anything.

OH AND JUST A QUESTION, WHATS UP WITH THE ONE BLACK GUY RULE?

As I said, the show was miles better when walkers were the main threat, not humans. One of the most powerful scenes was when Shane and Otis were trapped behind some barred fence in front of a store with a bunch of walkers just around an arm's reach with the only screw holding the fence secure shaking, threatening to open any moment. This is the kind of horror element that is lacking severely now, the kind where you sit watching and thinking "I would shit myself if this happened to me". Now they throw a few walkers in here and there as mere fillers. The characters are looking at them like "oh, another one, I wonder if I have time to take a piss before smashing its head?" instead of "AAAH FUCK RUUN FOR YOUR LIVES" like it used to be.

I wonder what turn will the show take after killing the governor.

These aren't really spoilers but are in a way, in the comics it goes back to survival mode again, where the zombies just keep coming and they need to find a new salvation. It actually gets a lot better after the prison

The comic book is way ahead now mind, but where it's currently at in the comic it's actually great, can't wait till the show reaches it there, that's if it does anyway.

But yeah then after that it turns out to be humans vs humans again, but it's a lot better, and there is someone even worse than the governor believe it or not, even though the governor is very corrupt and a huge liar and manipulater, this new guy doesn't even fucking hide it.

I sure hope so, I think the prison is the worst setting so far. I am probably the only one who actually liked the farm, although it was a bit annoying that they were put for so long, but now with the prison I appreciate season 2 even more. Survival mode ftw!
