See, I don't agree with this. Out of the prison might provide for more adventure, but the "real world"? On this show, what's that? They are meeting one uninteresting group after the other. Between that, Maggie's stupidity/obsession with all things Glenn and the lack of the show's leads, this is the absolute worst season and part 2 has just been heinous.

I'm mostly just enjoying the moments where we get to go to various houses and abandoned places. I think that added a nice touch of, not reality, but atmosphere. I loved the prison set and I didn't want them to leave, but I was glad for a break before we get another group setting, especially if it's like Woodbury.

I'm not a hater of the prison setting. In fact, I enjoyed it probably 100x more than that farm. I think the biggest problem with the prison is that it was so tied in with the Governor.

Shortly after season two began, I remember thinking to myself, "This show would be so cool if they could just get back on the road and experience things as if they were on a journey someplace safer [rather than staying in one spot]."

And I think that's why the second half of season four has been so enjoyable for me. To tell you the truth, I wouldn't have minded the journey to Terminus to last a little longer, perhaps for the duration of the first half of season five.

This season has been short on deaths the only main cast killed this season was Hersel. The cast is to big 15-16 characters.

So i'm hoping for at least 2 deaths. I'm hoping that Beth is one because EK is just awful and i thinking either sasha or tyreese are goners.

I think terminus may end up being the prison 2.0 in season 5.

I just hope this finale doesn't suck

I'm not, and this is the first time that I have lukewarm feelings about a Sunday night. Even after that embarrassing unrealistic S3 finale (at least Andrea died... totally saved the season), I was excited about the show. The new showrunner is just not bringing it.

Where in the sam hell is Ann?

There is alot of rumors flying that maggie is a goner and if she is. I will be pissed beth being the last green standing would be a big joke.

Poor CR asked to be on TTD but the show / amc said no. which understandable going by the story that is going to be seen to night.

I don't ever need to see Maggie again!

If the intent was to make the audience not give a damn about Maggie and her fate, mission accomplished. This is the opposite of Andrea. All it took was separating Andrea from the group, and that was all that was needed to show that she was not a good character. Maggie was a strong character and likable to boot. This season crushed her!

I still give a damn about Maggie and her fate. I feel like every character who does or says something that isn't perfect tends to be polarizing, but I've learned that just because I don't like them doesn't mean others don't. I thought Shane (as much as I liked the actor) needed to go, yet some fans insist the show was ruined and he was right about everything.

I'm more interested this season than last season, where I felt like everything just sort of died after they got Maggie and Glenn back from Woodbury, and there was way too much time spent on The Governor going to crazytown. I think they've made some mistakes this season but I also feel like some of this had to be done. Last season at this point felt so sparse and I only felt invested in Rick, Michonne, and Hershel (I hated Glenn's story last season) by the end. This season has made me care a lot about most of the group, sans Daryl.

With that said, if Judith dies, or if female characters die just so we can see their boyfriends/brothers/what have you making sad faces, then I don't think I'll be back.

    • The penthouse was my favorite set... and it changed hands from Margo to Draper/April to Miles/Nicole then to just Miles... before he opted to give that beautiful place for that drab house with the even more drab Beth.  That was a jump the shark moment for me LOL
    • The storyline April and Draper are involved in during the summer/autumn of 1979 seems fairly "benign" but soon turns very serious.  April has a VERY intrusive, wealthy mother (Margo Huntington Dorn).  Margo knows that April and Draper (who've recently had a miscarriage and are theoretically never going to be able to conceive another baby) want to buy a house.  Margo hoodwinks them into buying a house they can't afford.  The house is listed at $100,000 (about $400,000 in today's dollars).  Margo pays the first $35,000 and leads Draper to believe the asking price of the house is $65,000 instead of $100,000.  If Draper finds out his meddling mother-in-law paid 1/3 of the cost of the home and tricked him, he'll be mad as hell.   Meanwhile, Draper has received a job offer from a prestigious New York law firm.  Margo pulls some strings and has the senior partner in the firm rescind the offer, to keep April in Monticello.  If Draper finds out about THAT, he'll be even angrier with Margo than he will be about the house trickery.  All of that is "bubbling under the surface" in the fall of 1979 but will be the next major story, as everything begins to spiral out of control.   Yep, you've got the Karrs and their very basic middle-class house, the Victorian-themed place where Miles and Nicole live, April and Draper's old craftsman house with the exposed beams, the Madisons & their Mission revival house, and Margo with her 1970s-chic penthouse.  Each of the sets is completely different.  And their budget was like zero, lol.  
    • It felt weird and out of place.  I get. While I agree with those on here that he's gotten better, it's still really bad. I'm not seeing the "good" acting some see...but I'll give him a B for being better than when he first started. There's potential. I'll leave it at that. 
    • It's like watching paint dry at a slow-ass pace. It's bad acting. Entirely. Excellent? With Claybon? Never. Ever.

    • Ah! Good to hear. Isn't it especially odd to think that house fictionally exists not far from the Karrs?  Or, that it was designed non-fictionally by the same person who designed April's place?
    • Good to know I'm not the only one who noticed that. Strange and awkward, and I don't know what they're doing with those fades.   -- Finally, had to laugh at how many Emmys this board passed out today.

    • Not unless they live in an apartment complex.

    • That was bad. Product placement is fine, but not here, not now. Besides, no one carries their damn detergent to the living room.   Completely and utterly disagree. I thought Brandon Claybon was excellent today -- maybe his best performance since the show started. No recast needed.   Not unpopular with me. That didn't work. The montage was good, but 5 minutes of Amazing Grace? With all those verses? No. What kind of family breaks into a loud version of Amazing Grace after what just happened??? None. Anita's lecture to Leslie was great. Ending the show -- a really good episode with crackling dialogue -- like that was a mistake.  
    • Today, was a fantastic episode. I loved everything about, including Ainta singing, Amazing Grace. I love the family dynamic of the Dupree's so much. They remind me of my own family at times. Martin & Smitty have come leaps and bounds from where they  started. I genuinely felt a connection between them I can't wait to watch it deepen. Dana/Leslie/Sherry/Ana is a piece of work. Her speech at the Dupree's about her "concern" for Eva and then locking her out of their apartment??? She is pure evil, but I love it. I can't wait to see where the Eva/Kat story goes. There's so much potential there. As for Ted, I need to see Keith Robinson in the role before giving my true critique of Maurice Johnson.
