How long is there between USA showings and non-satellite UK showings?

(Personally I am on the DVD, but only came to this thread because someone linked to it from the complaints thread.)

Spoiler

Bruce Wayne is Batman
Uncle Ben was killed by the Janitor from Wings
He just wants to "Go the distance.".

The call is coming from your house.

Oh and...... It's his sled.

The Governor mowing down his men and running away like a Batman villain was just silly and completely ruined the season finale. What is he going do now? Return with Martinez and the Black dude and end up getting his ass handed to him even more? Sense now Ricks crew pretty much outnumbers and out guns his crew of 2 guys that don't really like him anymore. He'll probably either return or get killed off screen.

Airs Sunday in the US then the following Friday in the UK/Ireland.

I put it to you that when I said "non-satellite" I meant terrestrial or freeview.

[slinker]

i had no idea. I figured you guys watched it next day. I'm sorry about my big thing of spoilers then.

You heard the man, watch your comic spoilers.

Ugh, so much to dislike in that episode! Overall it wasn't bad, but some things really irked me.

[Spoiler: Andrea did not need to die! If she just stopped farting around instead of using the freakin' pliers she'd be free and clear!!! As it is, she had so much time to fend off Milton when she did get free and has been fine in many a situation far worse that what she was in that moment - and what, she just let zombie Milton easy back her giant fur coat to get a clean bite on her? Zombie Milton had way too much makeup on - he looked farcical. In light of what I think was a pitiful exit from the show, it made no emotional impact on me as a viewer because it seemed like such bad writing. Then to make it worse, she kills herself and Michonne watches? That's messed up!

Martinez: He's clearly been shown as a soldier, not a psychopath - I liked how shocked the two guys were after the slaughter, but I struggle to believe they wouldn't have had more decency than to pop a cap in the governors head when he started going all loco.

There were other things, but I can't recall them now. Too enraged./End spoiler]

You forgot a few other things.

[ Spoiler : Andrea taking way too damn long to get loose. It was like, Goddammit. Stop trying to have a conversation with the guy. He told he's dying and going to kill you. Just get out of the goddam chain and stab his ass.

Also, the fact this Season Finale had no build for next season. At leas the last two seasons ended on cliff hangers that make you felt interested in what happens next. This one is just like... "Oh, Carl is mistrusting and they've got some new cattle..."

Also the whole Governor situation just took a shat on itself. Here we were hoping for some epic battle, and all we got was the Governor mowing down 80% of his own crew and then driving off. Either he returns with a new army next season (doubtful) or get's killed off by his two henchmen off-screen.

Yeah, overall it was a let down. But I like Carl's new Billy Badass routine.

"What is this?" priceless.

I completely understand some of the complaints and I share to a point. But I'm willing to give the creators a bit of leeway until I see the season 4 premire.
The Govenor situation was handled rather poorly. This came off more like a mid-season finale.
Still, I was surprised on the direction the took things. Which is something I've enjoyed about the show, they're not 100% beholden to the comic.

[ Spoiler : I was a bit choked up when Michonne started losing it when she saw Andrea. Also, I can't help but sort of agree that Andrea (of Earth 2) died as she lived.....dumb. ]

the finale worked better as the episode just preceding the finale. If there were one more episode to follow, I would be anticipating it lustfully,

This.

Carl verbally eviscerating Rick was a thing of beauty, unfortunately his truth bombs were ignored and we're left with a rubbish set-up for next season.  

I can appreciate that they might have been wary of having another season end with our crew back on the road but a final climactic battle at Woodbury, leaving the place destroyed as a result of the Gov being batshit crazy would've proved a lot more satisfying and have given us a logical reason for the retreat back to the prison.  

To end on a positive, I think we now have a clean break from the comic series so at least I've no idea what's coming next!

[slinker]

I can't figure out why they left woodbury for the prison. they should just take over woodbury. martinez and the "other black guy" will kill the gubnuh, they aint comin back. but i'm happy they can bust off from the3comicnow too. i know I used tonotlike it,but i've changed.

Proof that The Walking Dead has the same plot as Toy Story! This is amazing!

Bad Liping Reading with the Walking Dead

[Mr.E.D.Meaner]

Was coming here to post the bad lip reading... I lost it in the middle, when the female zombie was like "you're hurting my throat" "See I'm coughing"

Also, love the Toy Story bit!

[slinker]

the governor's song killed me. that's the greatest thing ever. "cluck! went the chicken,"

a fish can hear you thinking just before you sneeze.
