^^^ I forget, but didn't the town get overrun, or somehow made less safe, through the battles between the two groups?

Also think the Guv factors into the radio somehow. Not thrilled with him coming back, since it didn't work out so good the first time, but we'll see how it goes this time. But I think a new group/town would be more interesting. Course that could run the risk of just repeating the whole Woodbury mess again.

Man, the more I think about it, I think the series may have jumped the shark there. They could have done so many different, interesting, and even thought provoking (what if the Giv wasn't a monster, but more of a complex character that was sort of the anti-hero to Rick?) things with it. And I don't know why they felt the needed to have a big resolution at the end of the season either. A good Woodbury plotline could have lasted 2 or 3 years done right, slowly expanding in scope.

But the whole thing was just a mess, and didn't even make a ton of sense. Not to mention the believability issues with a lot of the actions scenes, spoiling them. The fight with the brothers that Darryl is able to escape so easily. The ease in which the 'hero' group was able to attack the city, etc.
