I can't say I agree with the hate for this last episode. I thought the hallucination scene was one of the 10 best scenes of the series to date. The foreshadowing in the opening sequence and the symbolism throughout were very well done. The setup to the death was kind of weak, but I have to forgive it in the shadow of the high points of the episode.

The radio broadcasts were especially fantastic. It was a great presentation of Tyreese's feelings toward what the group had to do to survive. It was a neat way to describe the group's actions from a perspective that presents them as something other than the protagonists ("then terrorizing the village by night, carrying out revenge attacks involving hacking innocents with machetes and, in some cases, setting them on fire")

The walking dead indeed


edit: the more I think about it, the more I realize that the broadcasts are describing all the horrors of the world that is, not just what Rick's group has done.
