The Governor had an unsuccessful attempt on the prison and then had a much more successful attempt on the prison. That was the plan, to keep The Governor around for a little bit longer and show that the prison is able to withstand some kind of attack to show that it's a good place to live. But also to show that The Governor is still out there and he's not going to give up on this. We felt it was important for the life of the show to depict how dangerous things can get and how much of a threat The Governor actually poses and to give that story enough room to breathe. .
I heard the [complaint] that there was a bit of stalling at the start of season four, but people aren't really recognizing all of the character work that is going to pay off quite a bit in the back half of season four. It's an unfortunate thing because our seasons are split the way they are, people will often judge the first half of the season as one piece when it really is just half of the story.....
The group has lost the prison. Where do they go from here?
It goes into a lot of interesting and new places, which is something The Walking Dead is always striving to do. The prison has fallen, there won't be any more stories there, and now our characters are out on their own. They've lost the prison, they've lost where they live and where they were building their lives, and they're also separated and have lost each other. They're out in the unknown trying to survive. We're going to be going into some very interesting places with all of these characters and seeing new sides to all of them as they figure out how to survive. Been a while since these people have been out on the road and out in the open; they're very different people at this point.
The events in the upcoming episodes are going to change them that much more, which I think will make the show a lot cooler, more dangerous and more exciting.......more at site...

I’m hoping to see the return of Carol. Didn’t much care for her initially because she was so weak, but she’s developed into one of my favorite characters.
And it’s so nice that they’re going to be out of the prison and back into the world. The prison location seemed to make the show somehow smaller, when in reality they should be trying to seek out other non-zombie people and maybe finding a larger place to homestead and start rebuilding some semblance of civilization. Maybe even look for an island or peninsula or other easily guarded spot with plenty of acreage for homes/shelters and farm land. I mean, Georgia isn’t too far from the Gulf and it borders on the Atlantic so they could head for a port and get some boats and see about some fine Caribbean living since walkers don’t swim.
Granted, I haven’t read the comic books so I have no idea where the story line is headed but that’s what I’d probably do if I were in their situation.
Thank goodness the Governor is gone and the cast members can get back to tackling zombies.

Thank you for the ping!
I’m looking forward to the next season looking more like the first season with surprises on the road and etc. in every episode instead of the sort of monotonous prison story arc.
It’d be nice to see them visit Fort Benning or Fort Stewart to see what they can find for arms and maybe freeze dried food (I forget what those military dinners are called). I have to say it’d be nice to see the gang with a minigun if they could find one!
