I don't know. There's a preview with quick cuts then two longer previews. One has Andrea pleading to talk with Daryl literally straight after the end of the last episode and the other has Allen and Ben talking about taking down Carol and Carl and Tyreese says no.

The preview didn't show Merle. Just has Rick and some others, didn't see their faces, walk towards Glenn and Maggie who promptly yell at Rick. Some other interesting things like Andrea leading someone with a bag on their head towards the prison and Hershel yelling at Rick.

I think you'll find thats a walker. She seems to be using it as camouflage the same way Michonne used the 2 she had on chains

Good to see the Governor get what he deserved. If only Michonne got to finish him off

So the first 2 season were about survival against walkers, the next 2 are about surviving against other people.

I wonder if they'll start doing flashbacks to show how prominent characters survived the initial outbreak?

That'd be cool if they did, I hope they do!

Michonne needs to slice that goofy Sherrfis hat off Carls head. Having said that he has been pretty good this season.

Love the avatar, Haffa. Mathematical!

I was really happy with the last two episodes, particularly the developments that steered us back on course for the Governor as those of us who read the comics remember him. That Michonne/Governor fight scene was intense, but I can't help but feel it would have been better had we:
a). Had a reason to care about Michonne
b). Been given less clues as to the Governor being a sick SOB

As it was, I didn't really feel at all bad for him, but you got the feeling that we were supposed to.

Love that we finally get to see Tyrese - one of my favourite characters from the comics. Sad that it meant continuing the 'one black guy at a time' theme that has become something of a running joke.

What I really enjoy is the Daryl and Merle stuff. Them being completely new creations mean that even those of us who have read the comics have no idea what will happen in at least one facet of the show.

Bring on February.

Michonne is my favourite character at the moment, but that might just be something of a personal thing.

Why did they kill off Dale. Now no-one is making any moral judgements and they are slaughter happy. What happens if there is another herd, they will miss his eagle eye.

Is Walking Dead worth watching? Is there any storyline to the series to keep you drawn in or is it similar to your typical zombie Hollywood movies?

Each season has a central issue they're dealing with - whether it's finding some form of safety in season one, dealing with inter-group friction in season two, or the current issues with an opposing group of survivors.

It's more character driven than it is zombie driven, so the focus is on the interactions between the characters and the way they evolve (although some are considerably more fleshed out than others).

I, for one, rate it as one of my five favourite shows.

NEW ‘THE WALKING DEAD’ SEASON 4 CONTROVERSY: KURT SUTTER SLAMS ROBERT KIRKMAN
by Kevin Fitzpatrick 2 hours ago

Just when you thought the uproar surrounding AMC’s decision to renew ‘The Walking Dead‘ for season 4 without show-runner Glen Mazzara had died down, ‘Sons of Anarchy‘ creator Kurt Sutter has stoked the fires once again. Previously Sutter attacked AMC for their frequent show-runner turmoil, leading ‘Walking Dead’ creator and AMC executive producer Robert Kirkman to comment on Sutter’s words over Twitter. Now, Sutter has gone positively nuclear, slamming both Kirkman and AMC for a lack of knowledge in show-running in his latest video blog entry. Will the madness never cease?

Sound the alarm, ‘Sons of Anarchy’ show-runner Kurt Sutter is on the warpath once again. Following Robert Kirkman’s response to Sutter’s attack on AMC over ‘Dead’ show-runner Glen Mazzara’s dismissal, Sutter has launched the most scathing salvo yet on his personal blog, describing Kirkman as “[knowing] very little about TV.”

“Robert is an amazing visual artist and a graphic artist, [but] he knows very little about TV,” claims Sutter in the 12-minute video. “And the reins keep going back to him in this process, and he doesn’t know how to run a show. Comic books and TV are two very different mediums, and consequently those visions keep colliding [on 'The Walking Dead']…as a result people like Darabont, people like Glen Mazzara, keep going away.”

Sutter previously rushed to defend Mazzara for his departure of ‘The Walking Dead,’ the two having worked together on FX’s ‘The Shield.’ Fellow ‘The Shield’ producer and ousted ‘Last Resort‘ show-runner Shawn Ryan also criticized AMC for the debacle, given the network’s similar show-runner struggles with ‘Hell on Wheels,’ ‘Breaking Bad,’ and ‘Mad Men.’

Sutter even offered his own thoughts on ‘The Walking Dead’s future, praising producer Gale Ann Hurd’s difficult position, while acknowledging his own outside status with the controversy (via Zap2It):

The show has tremendous following, has legs. They’re going to plug somebody else, some pour soul, in there…my sense is they won’t even hire a show-runner. They’ll throw a s—load of executives at it and [elevate] a poor sap on the writing staff…And that poor sap will ultimately be just expediting the notes and the vision of non-creative people, or at least non-creative TV people.

That’ll work for a minute. In Season 4, when this will all happen, the numbers will be big, and people will show up. Will it continue to do well? No. My sense is that without somebody like a Glen Mazzara running that show, eventually it will lose focus and the narratives will run out of steam, and it won’t be able to build off of itself, and it will suffer.

‘The Walking Dead’ will return February 10 with “The Suicide King,” the remaining 8 episodes of season 3 still under Glen Mazzara’s leadership. Do you think Sutter has a point with his rants? Will AMC or Robert Kirkman retaliate once more? What about Glen himself?

Watch Kurt Sutter’s rant below, and give us your thoughts on ‘The Walking Dead’ season 4 controversy in the comments!

This doesn't bode well
