I mean, they must be trained to escape or something. I doubt he'd be able to keep it. 
And, given how incredible many of the archers in this show are…

I understand dragons win wars, but 3 dragons and 100+ men or 2 dragons and 8k men… I'd prefer scenario #2…

Is… is this a spoiler?  Or are you just guessing?

That is true, she seems to currently be ahead of the curve so there needs to be time for other's to move their chess pieces

Yes, after review I'd argue he is asexual.  Good point!

No Targaryens =[

@avclub-fe64d9bf06e366c1febdcf5f040c73f1:disqus Sure, you could read into it like that.  But I could read into Everybody Poops and make it sound like Mark Twain.  More reasonably, all of your notes are just things that the show copied directly from the comic.

@avclub-5d70f5d378563e9592e4c31bb56692a0:disqus is Negan the next villain?  I haven't read any comics, I just like to keep up to date on how it has strayed whenever something big happens.  I had no intention of copying any storyline

I apologize for wall-of-text.

I have been criticizing the entire season for just building to a climactic battle, but I was more willing to see it happen since we had been through 15 episodes of almost nothing for it.  Yes, it is a trope, but of course all tropes are not created equal.  Season finales and the ilk (like GoT penultimates) are just…

Perhaps you are correct — this is all I have ever seen him on, and he isn't exactly handed the best opportunity.

@avclub-bf685d0c6e419fab93fb447f71610d36:disqus No, I expect minimal out of this show now.  And why am I surprised?  Because I didn't read the comics, and because I assure you that at least 90% of people were believing Gov would die.  And proofread slightly, lol.

Because [they shouldn't, and don't] follow the comics. Andrea is dead, so they aren't following it by the book.  I expect the Governor to die because the last 8 episodes were dreadful, save for one ep which was good and the most filler-esque of them all.

Personally? Short term.  This has been VERY stagnant, which is why people were almost assured the gov would die here.

No, this deserved nothing more than a C.

@avclub-91546109eaf110327d50b0955865712a:disqus Right.  I'm saying the issue is that is literally ALL there is.  I obviously know what an antagonist is.  But I could have watched episode 1 of this season and then watched tonight and only said "Where's Lori?"

And that can work, but I don't think it can work for too many seasons. In fact I feel as if it hasn't worked for this show in a while… Especially when the plot moves at this pace.  Mid season 2 was slow. Mid season 3 is slow.  It's just a bunch of crap episodes to set up Rick killing somebody.  Shane last season.  The…

I'm inclined to agree, but it isn't like they were best of friends for the entirety of a season and a half.  To me it feels as though he wouldn't be terribly upset over it.  Shane did try to kill him multiple times after all. This is the stuff they should flesh out.

Not at all. Relax man.  I am just saying what got me by season 1 doesn't exist anymore.  I am stating why the current circumstances aren't making a quality television show.  There's a reason every episode is B/B-.  They'd be lower if there wasn't more or less a baseline C+ for this show. It'd be almost impossible to…

This show lacks a theme; it has no real heart.  There are some great shows that separate the two almost entirely — Breaking Bad comes to mind, having pretty well defined theme-driven episodes and plot episodes.  The theme episodes are really what drive the plot episodes — we *understand* why characters do what they…
