My bold prediction after last week's controversial episode of "The Walking Dead" was that this week would slow things way down in preparation for the grand Season 4 finale next Sunday evening. Well, this week's episode ¿ entitled "Us" ¿ wasn't exactly slow, but I doubt it will draw the crowds to the water cooler this morning either. There was plenty to keep our attention, but not quite enough to demand it.

Would you care for some Crazy Cheese? Why yes, yes I would. But I would also be OK with some Kraft Easy Cheese. On Sunday night's episode of "The Walking Dead" on AMC, Michonne tempts Carl with a can of aerosol spray cheese, referring to it as Crazy Cheese. Carl was all upset about the loss of younger sister Judith, and Michonne was trying to lighten his mood by spraying processed cheese product all in her mouth snd groaning like a zombie. It was a pretty good bit, I thought, and I would have cracked up if I was Carl. I get that he's going through his "Slipknot" phase but hey Carl, life sucks for everyone right now, why you gotta make it worse by acting like a dick?

Whoa! There is a ton of heavy stuff to discuss from Sunday night's midseason finale of "The Walking Dead" on AMC, but first, a serious question: Is the Governor really dead? I know that we saw him get stabbed through the center of the back and chest with Michonne's Shinobi sword, and then we saw Lilly stand over him and fire her gun in the direction of his head. But we never actually saw him die. I've learned that in shows like these - "The Walking Dead", "Magnum, P.I.", "Legends of the Hidden Temple" - that a character isn't actually dead and gone until we see their rotten, decomposing carcass. I know that "Talking Dead" included the Governor in their "In Memoriam" segment, but that could just be misdirection. After all, "Talking Dead" is there to promote "The Walking Dead" and its storylines, and we were clearly meant to assume that the Governor had passed. Ditto for Judith, though that was a little more ambiguous and she was not included "In Memoriam".

I know I've been harping on how little has happened so far in Season 4 of "The Walking Dead," and at times that was because I was dozing off or not paying enough attention, but I was focused from start to finish during Sunday night's new episode, "Indifference," and seriously, very little happened. First of all, only one (inconsequential) human and nine or ten zombies were butchered.
