Me. I haven't liked the character for a while but I feel they missed the mark if they were trying to gut punch fans as they pretty well ignored him all season. I think we all know how TWD works in that the episodes are all largely filler until the last episode or two of the half season where they actually progress the story line and kill off a major character for shock affect at the end to keep you interested in tuning in for the next half season so they can repeat the cycle. The problem is that Carl was largely ignored this season so what's the shock in killing off a character that barely got any air time in the previous 7 episodes? Really his death is nothing but window dressing seeing he wasn't involved in the story anyway. When characters like Father Gabriel and Gregory are getting more air time you know Carl had jumped the shark.
