The Walking Dead TELEVISION SHOW ONLY 2-DOGG MEMORIAL EDITION (UNMARKED TV SPOILERS)

[Shlup]

I'm bummed that everyone moved to the prison instead of the nice little town.

[FFIX Choco Boy]

Yeah, I DO wonder why they didn't move into Woodbury. I mean, with both of the prison's gates now out, and the breach in the back end, it's not going to be a very fun time in there...

[Rantz]

With more people they can do a lot more to repair and fortify. Sure, most of those people are infirm or otherwise unsuited to physical tasks, but there are other things they can cover to leave the physically able free to make it an even better place to stay. Honestly, the prison is a ridiculously practical place to camp in a zombie apocalypse.

That said, I'm not looking forward to them spending another season holed up in there, so I hope it goes in another direction, unless they come up with another good way to make it more interesting. And Woodbury definitely had the cute factor going for it.

[CimminyCricket]

Woodbury was definitely the Governor's domain. Rather than step into a territory they are largely unfamiliar with, with only a small number of people trust worthy enough to defend it, they stayed in a place they are familiar with and have already proved they could defend from a larger force.

[Shlup]

It seems to me like Woodbury is not only fortified, but comfortable, which is of no small importance. I don't see how the prison is that much more secure to justify giving up an entire town that's both secure and pleasant.

I disapprove of their choices and I hope Carl shoots more people.

It seems to me like Woodbury is not only fortified, but comfortable, which is of no small importance. I don't see how the prison is that much more secure to justify giving up an entire town that's both secure and pleasant.

Woodbury was secure because despite it's size it was guarded 24/7 by a squad of trained armed people with a small army of trained armed people ready to jump into action in an emergency. These people were recently gunned down and all thats left to gaurd the rather small town from all directions is the old, the infirmed and the children plus a few people who would actually manage to handle a gun.

It might be secure from walkers but without a 24/7 armed gaurd the guv could sneak in and start murderising people again. Not to mention he knows the place better than anyone. If there were any weak spots or secret entrances he'd be the one to exploit them.

Also if any newbies give them lip they can just throw them in a cell instead of letting them run wild like Shane or handcuffing them to a pipe on a roof or something

[Shlup]

A lot of people were gunned down, but more people can be trained and there are a few more people from the prison group to cover. Yeah, both options have advantages and disadvantages, but I still pick Woodbury.

[Flying Mullet]

Woodbury has bad juju now.

[Shiny]

The writers made Andrea so stupid, so her death was inevitable. When they make you hate a character that much you know they're going to die. What would be great if they killed off a really loved character. Now THAT would be shocking. The comics tend to be no holds bars on this.

I really hope Morgan comes back in the next season. His character development was the most interesting by far. Carl is rash, but he's smarter than Rick. Rick is entirely too trusting of people. He is a mixture of Rick and Shane at best.

[Bunny]

A lot of people were gunned down, but more people can be trained and there are a few more people from the prison group to cover. Yeah, both options have advantages and disadvantages, but I still pick Woodbury.

The main group was more familiar, and comfortable, with the fortifications of the prison as compared to Woodbury. Additionally, the Governor, presumably, knew every inch of Woodbury and could, in theory, exploit the weaknesses that he knew existed in order to gain an advantage over the group. Had they known that the Governor and his lackeys were truly dead, Woodbury would have been the better option. Since they know, or assume, that he is still alive, the prison (a place where the Governor is unfamiliar with) is perhaps the better option.

[Del Murder]

Yeah with the Guv still at large Woodbury would be risky. But they clearly see his army is gone now so if they don't go after him to finish the job then they are pretty stupid.

Not as stupid as Guv's two goons who stuck with him though. What the hell is wrong with them?

Also it took a while but Guv is firmly a legit villain now. In the last two episodes that dude was freaking intense.

[Shorty]

Yeah with the Guv still at large Woodbury would be risky.

This was my thinking as well. The prison is so large and there's plenty of room for everyone.

I really started to like Andrea more as time has gone on. I wasn't expecting her to die, and I think that her death was pretty anti-climactic. She could have easily fought him off with that tool at the distance he was at - she's done more with less in the past. I realized that I probably identify with Andrea the most out of any of the other folks in this show. I could see myself being compassionate toward both groups and trying to solve problems without war or anyone getting killed. It's unrealistic, and she was stupid to turn a blind eye to so much that was going on in Woodbury and not taking chances when she should have, but that's probably how I would react if I were in her situation as well. Andrea has come so far from being that person who wanted to stay in that shelter or science-y place or whatever that was self-destructing. She turned into a powerful, confident, brave woman who struggled with trying to do what she thought was the best for everyone and I admire her for that.

The ending was pretty anti-climactic as well. I would have liked to see a hint about the Governor or a new threat or something to lead us into the next season beside the fact that they acquired new people to the group.

Carl is turning into a little trouthead, but I understood his reasoning after he explained all of those unnecessary deaths that could have been prevented by not taking chances to Rick.

The one ounce of humanity that I finally saw shine through Michonne was when she brought back that damned ceramic cat. Her smiling and talking to Carl for those few seconds really, really made me like her. I would love to see more of that. She also seemed to let herself come through in the last couple of episodes, and I liked that. I just want her to stop being such a little bitch that I want to strangle all the time. Though her staying with Andrea in the last scene really made me sad.

I like that Rick has backed off his crazy.

Merle really came through like I hoped he would. I've been hoping that he would try to rectify his acting jerky for so long, and he finally did. It made me really sad, because I started to like him and see the struggle he put up with in feeling like he had no choice but to be the bad guy, to be the guy who takes out the trash for every one. Then he realized that he had a choice and acted on it. Daryl finding him just shattered my heart.

Did they extend this season by a few more epsiodes? I feel like the other ones were only 12, but maybe I'm wrong. In any case, I like that it was a little longer.

I'm interested to see how they can keep this thing going. Like babe said, the show continuing for survival is boring, and I'd like to see something other than the Governor being the threat for the entire next season because that was done already.

[Rantz]

Here's something that should have been in the credits to the season 3 finale.



Edit: Except all the other dancers are replaced with walkers.

[Calliope]

That took too long to load, so I am imagining a Bollywood dance sequence instead.

[FFIX Choco Boy]

I was thinking more along the lines of driving off in his car with a horde of walkers behind him, smoking a cigarette and the camera panning to the prison, in the direction he's heading... But that's too sane and likely of a scenario.
