The Walking Dead: Welcome to the Tombs (2013)
What an anti-climax!
Terrible finale. NOTHING got concluded! If you think the finale's of the previous series and compare it to this one, you will get where i'm coming from.
The "big" event that this episode came down to was Andrea's death. As satisfying as that is to 99% of us, that should not of been the major plot point of the finale. And how frustrating was it when she kept on looking at Milton instead of cutting herself free! I guess she died as she will be remembered, a pain in the ****.
The big "showdown" with the Governor and Rick's group never really happened.. it got off to a good start but then fizzled out and the Governors' group just ran away.... great. Then when he started slaughtering his own people..... why didn't they shoot back? They all had guns?
The only good event in this episode was Carl shooting the boy with the gun. This was thought provoking and i suspect people will be split as to whether he made the right choice.
But overall a really poor episode, especially for a finale.
The Walking Dead: Clear (2013)
Best episode since the pilot!
Wow. This episode is excellent from start to finish. It's normally the "big zombie battle" episodes that get remembered in TWD but this one ranks even higher.
Just having Rick, Michonne and Carl going out on a trip was a great move, as it allowed for great characterisation. And the return of Morgan! What a guy he is, and i'm sure i'm not the only one eagerly anticipating his return since the pilot. He's portrayed brilliantly in this episode, showing just how far the circumstances can effect the characters. With Rick seeing Morgans condition, it might make him realise what he could become, given his latest "hallucinating/crazy antics". Meanwhile I also loved Carl and Michonnes mission to retrieve a personal item for Carl in a zombie infested bar. It made for tense, gripping viewing and allowed the two characters to bond for the first time since Michonnes arrival. On the subject, this was a great episode for Michonne! We have finally got to see her involved in actual conversations, along with her bad-ass sword killing.
In conclusion, what an episode! More like this please TWD! 10/10.
