Die a hero, or live long enough to become a villain.
Okay, maybe not quite but still.
Might as well write more. I liked it, felt bad about Meryl even though he was pretty much a villain the entire time. Kind of annoyed how ]that scrawny kid stopped that bullet. I didn't get a great look at the rifle, but I think it was a M4a1, which means 5.56 ammo, which is kind of utter crap so it isn't entirely unrealistic but still kind of annoying. Michonne was kind of badass with the wire-fu. Better than the last episode or two.

Agreed. Albeit, nothing really interesting happened until 2/3rds of the way through.
Again.

Liked it. One thing that does keep bugging me ishow many many of the Governors people die along this season yet it does not seem to have any impact at all on his superior numbers. It's totally realistic that he has more manpower by far still. But for me, the viewer, the population of Woodsbury hasn't changed since the place was introduced the first time. And by now there were about 20 or more onscreen deaths of Woodsbury people.
I think it's been firmly established that the Governor is a crazy, obsessed, ****** & does not care who dies in the process of his revenge on team Rick.

It's been cemented now. As he mows down all the able bodied Woodbury members (except the Mexican and the Black guy).
Only 'cause of TV Andrea. Last season's finale was better.
Although, Carl's going full psycho earlier than expected.
I expect much of next season being "How do we feed all these elderly & children?" episodes culminating in the Governor's return & team Rick's flight from the prison.<== spoilered 'cause it's comic canon. Doesn't mean it will happen, but spoilered just in case.

I liked how the Governor finally fell over that line he's been toeing for the last few episodes, and Carl is becoming colder which is amusing, but if there was one thing that annoyed me is that damn silencer. It never makes a thwip sounds, damnit. Most a silencer does is makes a gun sound like a slightly smaller calibre gun. Last season finale was better, if only because it was leading to the Prison arc, so I had high expectations going in. Next season is a continuation, so while I'm still excited to see the end of the arc it just isn't as exciting as the start.
Also this season got rid of both TV Lori and Andrea, so greatest season evar.

I have to admit, I'm with Carl on his shooting that kid. He was told to drop the weapon. Instead, he says "You take it" while keeping his hand on the trigger. Yeah, they could have given him a second warning but if I have two guns pointing at me, that's all the incentive I need.
We all know why Michonne stayed with Andrea. It was to make sure she didn't ***** up killing herself, because, hey, she's Andrea.

It's one of those things you have to be really paying attention to get. "Stuff and things" is a line that is repeated throughout the series, mostly by Rick to Lori when she asks him what he's doing. The best is the way he says it. "I'm doing stuff. Thangs."
