The Gov is hit and miss for me. I really could have done without that zombie falling into the fire, and the quick shot to a house on fire and him standing in front. That was some cheesy s**t even for this show. Especially after probably one of the best acted episodes of the series. Felt like one step forward and two back.
I also think David Morrissey could be a good actor, but in this role he just comes off bad. Some moments he is very good, but most often it is soap opera level acting. He reminds me too much of the Dale like acting and not enough of Hershal. Now that is a case study of someone who has grown into that role as the last episode attested to.
I made the joke to my wife when they panned to him, "I hope the gov ran off into the woods last season and took acting lessons, now he'll return a little more believable and engaging." Then they had the cheese bit at the end to which I said "Nope, guess not"
