Even that has been hammered over our heads for the last couple of seasons. I guess I'm saying that I hope the other groups/threats are sufficiently different from the Governor to make it interesting. It's a narrative-based show without a particularly compelling narrative. Like they're throwing in MacGuffin after MacGuffin so they can keep serving up the weekly helping of 'rawr, it's a hard 'nuff life for us.'

I think some people are predetermined to hate it because of its premise/genre. But the show is never going to stray far from the GN. And the Governor arc is the peak of the GN. I keep hearing a lot of hipsters say it is getting stale, but Season 4 up to this point has been the best critically reviewed season so far.
I mean some people hate it "for the zombies" when that is not what it is about. Its more of a post apocalyptic western set in the American South.
And it keeps going from Macguffin to Macguffin because that is what the show is. It is full of tropes for a reason, because it is an adapted comic book full of tropes itself. It is never going to be Breaking Bad, Gimple has to adapt source material. I haven't seen a show do this good but supposedly disliked since season 1 of Glee.
