Ok all lets see what everyone thinks of when the Governor will die. My bets are gonna be that he makes it to the very end of season 4! I think we are really in for a Sadistic ride this season with the Governor!

I hope/think he dies in the mid-season finale and that the prison arc is over when it starts again in february.

"There's no "I" in team" 

"Yeah, there's no "U" either. So I guess if I'm not on the team, and you're not on the team, nobody's on the God damn team. The team sucks!"

Gimple expressed being "sick of the governor," so he probably has just been brought back for the comic version of the prison battle to occur and then they'll be done with him.

Another indicator that he'll likely die in 408 is the pace of this season. None of the threats to the prison group seem to last more than a few episodes.

If the prison battle brings that 7500 walker herd to the prison, the back half could be the group on the road encountering new threats (road to dc for cure, hunters, etc.) every few episodes.

It would be hilarious if Rick saw the Governor and just shoots him in the face on the spot! That would be so anticlimactic but so epic at the same time!

I think the group will be forced out of the prison by episode 8 but the Governor will still be alive

Imagine a group of a hundred motorcycles driving down a freeway. Eventually, they hit a junction. One road goes northwest and the other goes northeast. So one guy, we'll call him S, says, "Let's go northwest!" A mile past the intersection, a semi careens into the group and kills ninety of them. Ten are wounded, but they survive and keep going. Eventually, they hit 10,000 miles. S suddenly has his consciousness thrown into his past body right before the junction. Now, he says, "Let's go northeast!" All 100 bikers survive. Happily ever after, right? But what about the ten, no nine, who went northwest and survived? What happens to the reality they were living? Does it just disappear now that S has changed the past? It's not like only bad things happened on that 10,000 mile journey. Maybe one of them fell in love with a gas station attendant and got her pregnant or maybe one adopted a homeless kid that joined the adventure. That 10,000 mile journey would be full of stories. Romances, farewells, friendships...the loss of those ninety lives is horrible and unfortunate, but what would rewriting their history mean? The nine who survived lived full lives and did the best they could with the hand they were dealt. How could it be right to just erase all that? Isn't that worth something? Is there a point to a world where everything is happy? Are people who struggle for a better life just idiots? Being human is about fighting even when it seems hopeless and finding happiness in a world that hates it. Are you saying that's worthless?

I can't see them dragging out The Governor vs prison storyline for another entire season, so I expect to see him dead by either the mid-season finale or episode nine. Anything afterwards would be too long in my opinion, then again Gimple has done wonders thus far, so even if they do prolong his character I'm sure the writing team could make it work.

I really feel like (and hope) that it will be a mid-season finale type issue. If it goes longer than that there will need to be some "GimpleMagic" for it to still be interesting after that... and I'd rather having him work that 'GimpleMagic' on something new and fresh...

this! It's a Ben Linus situation. They like the actor too much to put a bullet in his head!

See, the Governor is no where near as interesting as Ben Linus was though. At least in my opinion. I really hope he's killed off here soon. I want it to be well done, but soon, nonetheless. Cake and eat it too. :)

Hell yeah. Or he accidently gets shot by a stray bullet that was intended to hit a zombie in a future zombie horde attacking the prison.

Ben Linus was a giant roller coaster, which is what made him interesting to me. One second you thought "oh maybe he's not that bad" and then he was 10 times worse, and then in the end he kind of redeemed himself.

With the Governor it's just a straight shoot of evil.

I just hope when the Governor's end comes, he twirls his black cape and says:

"Curses! Foiled again!"

Change is the law of life. And those who look only to the past, or the present, are certain to miss the future.

I am banking that he will last until episode 8 or maybe 9 but I don't see him going all the way through to the end of season 4.

I could see this forcing them to haul ass from the prison and him on their heels for the rest of the season until Rick puts a bullet in him in the final episode.

The sooner the better. So, so tired of the governor storyline. However I did vote for the mid-season finale.

We have a good number of WD fans in the office and there is nobody looking forward to the next few episodes.

Pretty much my sentiment, too. He'll do something to majorly F up their situation at Camp Prison for the midseason finale, the second half of this season will deal with the ramifications of this and their attempts to salvage their refuge, and he'll finally bite it towards the end of this season, (I voted episode 16 but could see it being 14 or 15, too) with his shenanigans being the catalyst that leads to them being forced to abandon the prison and hit the open road again. Season 5 opens with them on the road/run again, looking for a new home.

I hope chow time is this Sunday as I am sick of TG.
