That phone-bomb on the Talking Dead was awesome - loved how rattled some of the guests were while Hardwick was all amped up over it. LOL

As for the finale, while it didn't go out with a bang like last season, I think it did set us up for some interesting character arcs next season like:

Carl vs. Rick - clearly Carl feels his dad is just the biggest screw-up who makes decisions that get people killed and he's the one willing to step up and make the hard/right choices (in his mind)...him dropping the star on the ground at the end of the show was big

I think the twist at the end of the show where they bring the Woodbury people back to the prison was a genius twist on a season where their motto was "Fight the Dead, fear the Living." Rick & the rest of the group (except Carl) seem to get that going on as they had with their ever-diminishing numbers would lead to a fast and probably painful death. They have to learn to open themselves to others and grow the group to bring society back to what it had been before, or as close as they could get it.

Say what you will about Andrea, it was a great moment when Andrea was found and she was saying that people couldn't do it alone anymore and Darryl replied "You never could." They were both so good in that scene I sniffed once or twice.

I actually think it was smart to go back to the Prison - like it was mentioned above, Woodbury was strong enuf to keep walkers out but anyone with a minimum level of brains could infiltrate that town. It might be worth going back to continue to harvest the supplies etc from the town but I could see them using the numbers they have now to make the prison homier. And with the Governor & his flunkies having cleared the yard for the most part, they could repair the fences and look at planting crops to add to their stores.

I would have done the same thing. Guy is ordered to drop his rifle but instead he tries to close the gap, how was Carl to know he wasn't going to try to grab him once close enough?

And at the end of the day, the guy was there to try to kill the prison group. 100% the right call IMO.
Rick also blew away those two guys in the bar who wanted to know where the farm was.

I can't remember, but were those guys from Woodbury? I keep thinking they are going to stumble upon that other group.

I actually enjoy the hour long talk show afterwards.. They have small segments where they show behind the scenes on how they create the effects, pretty interesting.

And Shirley seems very similar in real life, has done the high pitch / serious voice a few times.

It's a talk show, a post Walking Dead wrap up. They have all sorts of guests on to talk about the show. Patton Oswalt, Kevin Smith, Jon Heder, Scott Ian, Will Wheaton, CM Punk, Damon Lindelof, etc.

Usually they'll have a show actor on, but also throw in a comedian, actor, writer etc etc as well.

Actually I feel like she's more dramatic in real life lol. She's pretty hilarious. Just a fellow Walking Dead superfan.

Edit: speaking of random cameos...

I googled it afterwards. The caller was reading a passage from the bible.

I don't know why I googled it and definitely doesn't explain how creepy it sounded.

Did it have any relevance to the Bible passage shown in the prison attack scene?

Is that actually a Bible quote? Geezuz that's defeatist and negative.

I got a lot of these so going to spoiler the whole thing, there are no comic book spoilers of any kind in here, just comics poking fun at the various plot holes:
