I have officially tuned out those that complain about this show. It has been consistently great every episode this season. The tone is completely different since Darabont left, and you feel anxiety, fear, and desperation with each episode. They're also come to terms with the fact that these characters need to be unlikeable a good part of the time, because you can only be so nice during the apocalypse.

I'm pleasantly surprised how much better this season is compared to the last two. Really got their act together and has become quite an enjoyable show.

Yeah, season 3 has been very good. No complaints.

Also I am up through compendium 2 of the comics. They are awesome! The show will never live up to that, but oh well. I've gotta get more, though I don't think the next volume is out for a bit.

I have to admit that I've found little to whine about in the last episodes. Sure, some characters are boring (Andrea, why are you still alive?) and it's like every episode needs to have at least 1 "let's get killed in the most original way" moment. But other than that, it's pretty good.

Edit: No Laurie where they left her... so Tim or whatever the kids name is didn't have the guts to shoot his mom after all?

I need to read the letters column more often. Steven Yeun wrote a letter which appeared in issue 102. Spoilers for issue 100...and season two of Friday Night Lights. So read at your own risk:

This season has been awesome, but you have to admit, Season 1 was inconsistent and cheesy, and Season 2 was a piece of shit. The writting was awful, the pacing was off, the soap opera acting was contrite and dumb, and everything sucked.

I pretty much checked out after Season 2, and I'm happy they did a complete 180 with Season 3.

Season 3 is really holding its own, and as I said...I have no real complaints. I have compliments, even! There are moments that are like, "damn."

I was one of the Darabont supporters, so I need to apologize. Apparently he was fucking everything up. It's good that he left. Best decision ever. Now here is to hoping for 3 or 4 more seasons of this! At the rate we are going, things are going to get really dark.

Did anything actually happen last episode? I almost felt like fast-forwarding the show. I almost feel like they could have skipped this episode and go straight to the next one.

And if you want to make people believe that 1 zombie ate a whole human... yes, you need better explanation.

Oh and did anyone ever doubt that Sofia's mom was alive? I'm surprised they smeared that out over 3 episodes, what was the use?

Agreed.
I hate everything about her.
The actress' face. Her voice.

I'm hoping she's only being used to go deeper into the character of the Governor (considering Mishonne now left her, and they're not tied together anymore, and all the info Merle needed from her has been extracted. Her usefulness to the show has been spent), and then he'll kill her in some gruesome way - because shit is getting too non-zombie between them - and their entire shit is just boring.

Maybe it's a pacing thing, though.
I figure if every episode has the knob turned to 11, soon 11 will be the norm for that knob, and there will be nowhere to take the intensity so you just turn that knob down to a 2 every once in a while. So then when you turn the knob back to 11, the crowds all fist-pumping, rocking, and moshing again.

I just really, really hope Andrea's story, and the last episode was the shitty ballad amidst the sea of fists.

I want that cunts head in a fishbowl.

I hate the way she does that head-roll-cock-eye-half-smile thing. She does it constantly.
