Yeah, I disagree about them being filler episodes, though they are less action-packed than the rest. I disagree about it being silly for Michonne to get the picture for Carl. It shows that she does care about people, not just about killing the governor. It was a smart move on her part. Also, Michonne is a bada** and can take on tons of zombies at a time so we've learned, so I don't think she really felt like she was putting herself in great danger by going in there. And bringing back that funky artwork was silly... but it was funny and kind of gave her a personality besides that quite, seemingly coldhearted person that she appears to be.
Rick isn't a killer. It was so difficult for him to kill Shane - he should have done it long before he did. No matter how terrible someone is, he waits until they put a gun to his head before he kills them. And if he had just killed the governor, what would've happened outside? He wasn't about to put Hershel and Daryl in trouble.
Ha - I wish she had, though I don't think that would've worked. The little girl, despite being a zombie, didn't have very much strength. Michonne was easily constraining her with little effort by holding her head. The governor had been handling her for a long time and wouldn't have let her bite him.
Welcome!!!
And yes I agree with pretty much all of this.
Michonne and Penny, I think killing Penny did exactly what she wanted it to do, hit the governer in the only human place he has left.
I don't think these have been filler at all, I think they have been very important and they have had some very interesting emotional interchanges.
I thought it was very important for Michonne to get the picture for Karl, she knew how much it meant to him, and he probably would have snuck back to get it anyway. And she is human, much more than she shows. (which she also showed when she asked what would happen to Andrea if they would have gone after the governer). I think the cat sculpture was two fold, to add a little humor, and so she can pretent to not be a softie.
Geez, again, overthinking everything LOL. But I have also heard people complaining about the last couple weeks being boring. Then they should go watch a zombie movie instead.
But yes, I would love for the governer to be dead, but I know they can't do that yet.
