I'd hoped for a little more, but generally the midseason finales for TWD don't have a big boost, from what I can remember. They were lucky that the two Governor episodes didn't do more damage. In the past the midseason premieres have had a boost. We'll see.

A few more articles.

Gimple interview. Might be a little spoilery.

http://www.vulture.com/2013/12/walking-dead-postmortem-scott-gimple-governor-rick-tank.html

I was reading through the new Walking Dead magazine at the store, and they interviewed Gimple. He talked about how when he was 9 he planned to become a TV producer, and what he'd have to do to make it happen.

I didn't realize he wrote 18 Miles Out. That's one of my favorite episodes, mostly for the opening and closing shots of Rick looking at the walker as he drives by.

I thought the interview was okay. I usually like most of major plots that the story does, but I don't think that they made the right decision dragging out the Governor's story. Really his story was done last season, the attack on the prison should have been last season's finale. I also don't like the character study episodes that telegraph who is going to die next.

With three more regulars, we should have at least one more death by the end of this season. I think that we will see Morgan again. I would prefer that he joins the group. They can get rid of Bob.

I totally believe Darabont's claims. He is not the first creator/producer to be cheated by the networks. Plus, AMC is run by cheap dumbasses and scumbags. AMC has been in financial trouble for the last two or three years and it was made worse when it tried to take on the Dish Network. No doubt the settlement with Darabont will take yet another financial chunk out of AMC.

LOL! AMC is just poking itself in the eye with all these miserly decisions. Think of all the projects that are going elsewhere because producers want nothing to do with AMC. It such a coincidence that just a couple days somewhere online I was reading a financial blurb where two stockbrokers were debating whether investing AMC was a good move. The network has such a bad rep despite having the no. 1 scripted tv show.
