    Next week is the great Rick/Guvnah Summit.

    What can go wrong?

      Really good episode. The show focusing on so few people definitely helped. Michonne gets a ton of screen time and even gets some lines! She bonds with Carl, genuinely and he approves of her. This show has become so bloated with characters that it has no time developing any of them, so this was a good way to develop the ridiculous subplot of Rick going crazy (Morgan was, at that point, the extreme of what Rick was going through and absolutely nailed it) and also humanize the death machine that is Michonne without killing her at the end of the episode.

      Unfortunately next week will probably be more of the same dancing around the inevitable war between the two groups, but we'll see how it goes. Still not expecting much.

      Also, Morgan will be back, book it.

        Great episode, but this will be a meaningless episode in terms of the long arc of the season. If the show would do this every week, I'd probably end up loving it, but these kinds of episodes don't appeal on a massive scale. I was like fuck yea, great episode, but then the previews for next week turned me back into reality. Time to get back to the shitty Governor storyline.

          Great episode reminds me why I got into this show in the first place.

            We'll see how Morgan, Michonne and Carl develop off this week and how Rick comes back after witnessing Morgan's insanity.

            Carl's taking the reigns ever so slowly, his approval of Michonne ----> Rick's approval was a great scene.

              I was actually a little shocked at how quickly I watched this episode (I stream) because it didn't feel like 43minutes. I liked it, better then before, but as mentioned, it just wont stand up. It sucks because in the grand scheme of things, this was just another glorified filler episode. It really furthered two subplots in Rick's sanity and Michonne becoming part of them. Sure they are big parts, but full episode worthy? It is kind of funny because they did make it episode worthy and so far it has been the best one of the season.

              I think the Guvnah just spells out everything wrong with the show. This bullshit stupid fight between the groups just makes no sense and take the focus off the dead and survival. The show shouldn't be called The Walking Dead, it should be called The Stupid Living.

              And I don't know why, but yet again, every time I see Carl with that stupid hat on I want to knock it off his head. It has nothing to do with anything, just is one of those little things that annoys you for no real reason.
              All you need to know when thinking of the NHL vs Madden series is the two people involved in making the games.

              "rammer" and "cummings"

              The NHL series is a giver, Madden takes the load.

                Morgan WILL be back..... and ALL his guns, lol. Seriously....that was by far the best episode I've seen this season. I really liked the "clear" meaning ,,, the way Morgan put it and how it tied into Rick's feelings "duty". Really,,,really liked it.

                  Some solid acting in that episode. Especially from the guy playing Morgan.

                      Morgan will be back, yes, but I don't think its until the season finale.

                      Lennie James two episodes have been the best acting this show has seen so far

                        James is a good actor. He needs to have a bigger role.

                            From my vague memories, James had the best character in Jericho....he's talented indeed.

                              I raise the question.

                              Are the survivors not the walking dead themselves?


                              Rick did say, "We are the Walking Dead."

                                I've never read the comics or no any spoilers this is just a guess, Morgan comes to help Rick's group in the fight against the governor at some point.
