The way he killed merl makes me think, the season finale will have some loss of characters. It's not to be unexpected we've seen at least one character die in each of the previous season finales. I'm guessing it'll be Glen or Michone seeing as they have something to lose/gain.

I hated that Merl died, even though he was a jerk at times, he was so cool and he redeemed himself too. And the way Daryl reacted really got to me, people can say what they want but I really wanted him and Carol to get together.

Cry isn't the word for this episode. I bawled. Bawled so much. Merle was my favourite character, he had such a good act of redemption, then the Governor treated him like trash and let him come back as a Walker. Such a brilliant episode. Daryl's reaction pulled on the heartstrings, I couldn't believe that he had to do something like that.

I didn't find it sad at all. I just kept thinking how weird Daryl's face looked when he was crying. I mean I liked Merle and everything but I didn't love him enough to get upset over it. I don't think I like any of the characters that much.

Agreed. Honestly I dont see how the Finale can even live up to the last episode. Nothing short of them killing Daryl and Michonne will make me nearly as sad as killing Merle.

The best part of the episode was them acknowledging what Merle did. Other than that I was completely underwhelmed. I can't believe they are continuing the Governors story into next season.

I was shocked that Andrea died, knowing how she does in the comics, wow. The Governor lives which I think is great for the show, it means we will probably see new stories not shown in the comics and a lot more of the governor like he is in the comics. And now Rick's group has expanded a whole lot. The Governor killing all of his people wow very psychotic.

I'm actually glad they are continuing with the Governor, really think he's the perfect villain to have.

I knew Milton was going to die, but Andrea was kind of a surprise. But actress who played Andrea did say a few weeks ago that the Finale wouldn't be a cliff-hanger, so in all honesty, I wasn't expecting much.

I actually enjoyed the finale from a writer's standpoint. I didn't see 2 main cast deaths in back to back weeks, but I thought they at least made the right decision with Andrea. I thought they might tag her along for the story, but instead they did the logical thing and killed her off.

Carl be turning into Governor 2.0 lol

Considering The Walking Dead as a series, this was the best season finale thus far. It wasn't a masterpiece, but it was pretty good.

It was anti-climatic, but I think they solved it well, honestly. Season 4 might shape up to be a showdown between Rick and Governor. As for what I think of the characters in this episode:

- Rick was back to his old self here. A leader, finding redemption. Respect.
- Carl is becoming more and more complex. I think they are developing him well.
- Andrea dying was probably the best solution, no matter how much I want her on screen.
- Daryl is just... he's badass. There is no coming around that.
- Michonne is slowly becoming one of my favorites. She's well-written and deserves to be in the group.
- The Governor finally slipping in front of his people. The perfect way to lose all respect.
- As for the others, they were okay. Nothing special. Same old.

I thought it was a great finale.

Didn't expect Andrea to die but there wasn't real much to her story left anyway so it was good, not too big a loss like Daryl(oh god no) and not like the guy in the van back in season 2's finale.

I thought the Governor killing all those people was awfully deus ex machina, conveniently turning the tables when the main group would otherwise have lost eventually.


Thought they would have left the prison, least they fought for it.


No idea where the series could go now, I hope it's not going to be another season of the Gov's shenanigans, not that he shouldn't appear just I hope next season isn't going to be centered on what he gets up to.

I really didn't care for this Finale, and thought it was very anticlimactic to be honest.

This season was the build up for a Rick Vs. Governor, and all we got was them talking a few Episodes before the Finale. I feel a Rick Vs. The Governor fight should've happened while Daryl was looking for Merl, and I hated that Andrea died. She fought off a walker inside a camper in a tiny a*** bathroom and killed a walker with a Screwdriver in Season 2. You're telling me that she couldn't fight off a walker right as he other hand gets lose? No, she's tougher than that, I realize she was held captive and what not, bit they were pretty tired when Andrea did that in Season 2 as well.

But, if I had my choice, I wish Merl had lived and Andrea died, but thought her death was pretty weak, where Merl's was strong and very emotional, but I did think it was only proper that Rick gave her his Gun, and Michonne staying with her. I like Michonne, and I hope she's here for a while (And I don't wanna know what happens to her in the Comics).

Nest season we better get Rick Vs. The Governor within the first 5 Episodes, or I'm gonna be pissed.

I thought this season Finale was weaker than Season 2, I know this was about rebuilding and being stronger and having more people, but it was just crammed within the last few minutes, I realize it's a TV Show and there's a lot that goes behind the scenes, but I think they should have left that until the first Episode of Season 4.

The entire season was built up as this giant battle that is supposed to happen and only one team is walking away. Either Woodbury or the prison. Instead we get like 5 minutes of actual fire fight and then the Governor killing his own people. That's it.

Ending the season after the 2nd to last episode would have even been better than what we got.

They don't even show where the Governor goes. He just drives off. Gah... making me disappointed all over again thinking about how dumb it was

Another thing that pisses me off is Merles death was basically for nothing now. He killed 8(?) of the Governors "soldiers" to weaken his "army". And then they don't even fight them really. Glenn and Maggie are the only ones shown shooting and they all run away.
