Posted by: S.P. Young  •  April 2, 2013 @ 3:15am

"This life now, you kill or you die. Or you die and you kill."

The Walking Dead: Better Angels

"Freeing that prisoner -- more important to you than Carl?"

Better Angels is probably the weakest episode of the entire series so far. It had its moments, and some of it were good, but the way it ended was just awful. The irony of Carl shooting Shane was fine.
