Gotta agree DC/Alexandria is the logical next step for the show.
While my hate for the governor burns brighter than that of 1000 suns, if he dies I don't see the rest of this season having much excitement. That being said, I await for his demise with fervor, as I do IU's imminent collapse in the second round of the NCAA tourney to a vastly less talented squad. That is all.
After sitting next to an Indiana fan who knew nothing about basketball, and her friend who wore a U of M shirt but cheered for IU more than us, my wife and I had to make the long dejected walk back to the track and field parking lot after the game. I came home and butchered my fettucine alfredo recipe I've been making since I was in middle school and some how made garlic bread that didn't have any flavor. So, I've decided to make a mai tai with extra rum, eat some gelato and easter candy and hope a great Walking Dead episode will make today not feel like a total waste. Here's to hoping Merle becomes a bigger part of the group and that lot's of unexpected deaths/twists go down!
Good dialogue so far this episode, the bit about showing you my hump was a nice change of pace, as this show doesn't really have much of a humor side to it.

Milton (seriously the nerdy guy's name has to be Milton????) is an interesting character that will certainly play a role in the downfall of the Governor. You can tell that he's starting to see just how evil the Governor is, if he hadn't already I suppose.

It's a shame he forgot about his mutated sea bass.

Ok during a commercial segment for the Talking Dead I saw a preview for a Pyscho-esque drama? Seriously, are they going to ruin Hitchcock by making a TV show based off of one of his famed films?

They love to do this, build up to one event for 15 episodes which ends up being VERY underwhelming in the end. Look at the CDC, leaving the farm, etc. I call it the "Heroes effect".
Even the CDC episodes were more interesting than this. People at least had to make decisions about whether to stay or leave. 90% of the episodes of this show since season 1 have been disappointing at best, or downright terrible at worst. It's the 10% where all of the action happens that keeps me coming back.
I still say to this day that the episode where Sophia walked out of the barn is one of the best episodes of any TV show I've ever seen. I was literally shaking when it ended.
As soon as the episode started I told my wife "Another filler episode". It is starting to approach "The Farm" levels where searching for a 9 year old girl for weeks on end was a "good idea".
I suppose if they don't then they would fly through the main points in the comic storyline.
At this point I just feel like whoever is writing this show has no idea what they are doing. I don't mind shows that are dialogue heavy as logn as the dialogue is, you know, actually good. There are so many drawn out one-on-one verbal confrontations in this show and the vast majority of them are just not enticing whatsoever.
Also, I feel like everyting that's happened since the midway point of this season could have been done in 2 or 3 episodes. I think it has now been 5.
I'm definitely going to finish watching this season, but it might be the last of this show for me. It's a shame because this story could go in so many different interesting directions and yet I feel like the people in charge are destroying it.

I am entertained. That is really all I ask of the show.
