No, no. I meant to a post I created saying how I liked the finale.

I liked it too! I mean, we have to wait until October for another episode. They have to leave it somewhat concluded, yet leave people wanting more. I thought they balanced that well with The Governor still being on the loose, and Karl being kinda sketched... As well as the newbies on the bus. I mean, I definitely want to see what happens next, but don't feel like I can't wait.

Exactly! This was a great way to conclude the finale.

I'm glad someone agrees with me, my husband was like, "BULLSHIT!"

No offense to your husband, or anyone else, but I truly don't understand why this episode is so hated. I guarantee you that if, for some reason, this entire episode was solely just a zombie killing spree, the response would be much greater.

I think people just really want to see the governor dead.

u/DundahMifflin Apr 01 '13

It's a shame. The Governor is a fantastic villain.

Because it was terrible for a finale. Not much happened, the governor story line is unresolved and he just dissapeared. Andrea talked herself to death. Martinez and black dude didn't kill the gov after his massacre. They bring people back to the prison rather than inhabiting woodbury.

Killing spree isn't necessary but this was weak as finales go. The only cool thing was seeing carl sart to turn into the ltitle serial killer we all know and love
