The Walking Dead: Season 4 [Blu-ray]
DVD Wholesale Quick Overview:
This show absolutely floors me. At the end of every season, I tell anyone who will listen that this was the best season EVER in the history of television. But I honestly have to say that of all of them, Season 4 by far outshines them all. It’s gripping and emotional, tearing at the heart strings and leaving you breathless. My favorite episode, “The Grove” left me literally sobbing. These actors, the writing… it’s just so much more than a zombie story! It breaks my heart that they aren’t recognized for the great work that they’re doing because of the genre they’re in. Three of my friends and my 74 yr. old mother all said, “Nah, I don’t want to watch a ZOMBIE show.” I got them to watch a single episode and suddenly they were binge-watching all 5 seasons! Bravo and Thank you, TWD cast & crew!- KMaggi3
With over 6,000 reviews already, there is no need for me to write a review. However after finishing Season 4, I wanted to let people know that this was the best season. Don’t get me wrong. Season 1, 2, and 3 are awesome and not to be missed. But two scenes from season 4 made this the best (so far). 1) Carol and the girls. Amazing what she had to do. 2) the very last scene of the season when Rick takes over as the leader again and foreshadowing what will happen to Terminus people. Along with these two exceptional scenes, Daryl takes a huge step into the spot light next to Rick. Carl, Beth and Michonne are also excellent support and great multipliers to the story. The new additions were perfectly added (and removed from some). Now, Glenn and Maggie are loosing steam and not as interesting as before. Overall, looking forward to season 5.- for your information
I find this season’s episodes very entertaining for the most part, beacause of the development of strong interpersonal relationships between characters who are generally likeable, even if flawed, like ourselves. However, the zombie/character interactions continue to be absurd at times. The ability of the bumbling zombies to surprise characters and kill or nearly kill characters is implausible, especially after a few seasons. Still characters haven’t learned to be overly cautious or take common sense precautions. Examples: opening doors when apparently assuming everything is fine on the other side; never closing doors behind themselves, especially when being pursued by zombies; not vigilantly looking around or standing back to back when traversing the country side; not using load noises to test whether zombies are nearby like in a closed room, to provoke the zombies to grunting and growling and noisily ambulating; not having determined which weapons are the best for fighting zombies and under what circumstances to use particular weapons; not always creating barriers, like at the doors they use to enter and exit a home/ haven (but they are being used more now); etc. By now fortified villages could have been built with concrete walls, gates within gates to limit all-or-none zombie invasions into residential areas.
But in spite of these shortcomings I find the show very entertaining, I just look past the shortcomings.- G Vandermark
